New to the rental market. Everybody Wants Sun is a roomy oceanfront home with elegant vistas in Salvo, NC which is part of the tri-villages on Hatteras Island in the true Outer Banks. This home is well appointed and cared for by its owners who will handle your reservation with care. We will strive to make your stay memorable, and you will not be a faceless number at one of the enormous property management companies that frequently become difficult to reach when you need them.
Linens and towels are supplied at no cost. We will provide sheets for all beds and the beds will be made except for the top bunk and trundle bed in which case, sheets are included. We also provide some items to start your vacation like toilet paper, paper towels, dish towels, sponge, bath/body soaps and a starter pack of dish detergent, laundry detergent, dish soap, trash bags,
coffee and filters. We ask that you bring your own beach towels and to not use our bath towels at the beach.
Treat yourself to a astounding beach vacation with 5 roomy bedrooms and 3 full baths and 2 half baths, one of which is outside by the pool! Why walk back into the cold air conditioning in your wet swimsuit when you can walk to the half bath right near the pool area in comfort. Speaking of comfort, all beds were newly purchased and will allow you a great nighttime’s sleep after a day of sun and surf. Vistas from the sizable windows and decks on the back of the home feature the impressive sand dunes, morning sunrise and striking ocean that will beckon you to stroll, fish or swim. You can even discover the 19th century shipwreck that is not too far from your entrance to the wide broad beach or spot the dolphins at play. The vistas from the side decks and the front of the home showcase the gorgeous sunsets that the Outer Banks are famed for as well as glimpses of the Pamlico Sound which during the spring/summer/fall will display a colorful scene of kite surfers and hydro foilers in the sky.
You can partake in many of the many world-acclaimed water sports from the providers here in the area. The surfing here is also one of the best spots on the entire east coast. Take a lesson if you want to learn to kite board, hydrofoil or surf or rent all the equipment you need from the well-respected providers.
Fishing is also one of the most sought-after past times here on the Outer Banks and we have a fish cleaning table with water available to assist you with your catch.
After a day on the beach, refresh with a shower (hot or cold) in our outdoor enclosed shower on our pool deck. Appreciate the crystal-clear pool waters and relax in multiple of the seated areas inside the pool. Parlor under an umbrella while your drink chills in our deck cooler or sunbathe on one of the chaise lounge chairs.
For meal times, our well-appointed kitchen features many amenities including granite counters, an espresso machine, coffee maker, blender, food processor, two dishwashers (a must for huge gatherings!), beverage refrigerator (so all your libations will be cool and invigorating) and a complimentary standing under the counter ice machine that will keep your drinks cold and your coolers filled during a hot day on the beach. There is a huge dining table for everybody to be able to savor mealtimes together as well as a few counter seats at the granite counter island.
Our comfortable living room area features a modest seating area as well as a sizable seating area with numerous couches/appreciate seats and a brand new 65" intelligent TV. All bedrooms feature their own T.V. (Roku) as well for more private viewing. Our loft area features a TV (Roku) and a table for games, puzzles, and cards. It is also a great spot for kids to play and watch TV while adults relax in the living room. The loft is also a great location if you need to work. Sometimes we must while on vacation but here at Everybody Wants Sun you can do so while gazing out at the stunning ocean vistas from the third floor. Don't worry, the home features high speed WIFI and it even reaches the decks and pool area.
There are three levels of wrap around decks and three out of the four bedrooms on the first floor have sliding door access to these outdoor spaces which feature tons of seating and calming locations. The main floor (2nd) has giant windows and multiple sliding doors that open to the large wrap around deck with seating and a tall table that is ideal to sit at while you appreciate your morning coffee or evening beverage. Even while in the kitchen, you can look out at the handsome dunes and sea. The top deck (3rd floor) off the loft has the most spectacular vistas East and West and is a great spot to watch those spectacular sunrises and sunsets with numerous tall chairs for you to relax on.
Once the sun goes down, enjoy a fire in the fire pit while you listen to the waves crashing on the shore and the beautiful starry sky above you with very little light pollution so you can see for miles. We frequently see shooting stars and the Milky Way is visible on a clear nighttime.
There is parking for 5 cars, with some covered parking, as well as beach chairs and other beach amenities storage and private access to the 2-min. stroll through the dunes to the beach front.
Everybody Wants Sun is really a beach lovers heaven. Hatteras Island is a more relaxing location but don't fret, there are entertainment and dining options available, and we have supplied a guest book with the areas offerings waiting for you in the home.

Tips to get the very best vacation home experience:
How to get the best rental home value:
- Reserve your vacation rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules often open 12 months in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many groups book their Summer vacations during Winter holiday gatherings. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
- Summer is high season in the Hatteras area. Reserving a rental home in Spring or Fall is a great way to save money on your vacation. Rental rates are lower, and you'll find a better selection of acceptable homes. Many vacationers use this strategy to reserve larger homes, or to reserve a beach front vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable during the Summer.
- Property management companies sometimes offer special rates for veterans. It's always a good idea to check with your host or property manager to see if special offers are available for your group before you book.
- Management companies and individual rental owners frequently offer renters an option to buy trip insurance. Trip insurance, which normally will cost you between 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed time as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel stay or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance can be a a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for program terms and fees.
- Find a copy of your local Hatteras visitors guide magazine when you check-in. If your rental property doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local grocery stores and visitor centers. In addition to great local articles, travel guide magazines have coupons for nearby attractions, tours, restaurants, and shops.
How to choose the perfect vacation rental:
- First and foremost, have your family commit to vacation dates and a maximum budget.
- Note the number bedrooms and what type of bedroom configuration your group requires. Luxury 5 bedroom\/5 bath oceanfront with pool has 5 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our vacation rental search.
- Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts & types is almost always accessible on booking websites. If you don't see them listed, email the property owner before you book the vacation home. Note that most properties list the maximum guest capacity, which often includes pull-out couches and bunk beds. You'll need to work out what bed configuration is suitable for your vacation.
- Some rental properties allow pets, but some do not. Acceptable types of dog or cat, weight and breeds may be restricted, and additional fees may apply. Ask the property management company about pet restrictions before booking.
- Visiting for a single attraction or event? Use a map search to browse nearby properties.
- Suitable accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for persons with disabilities. .
Know before you go:
- Be sure you get the property manager's phone number and entry/exit procedures for your rental property.
- Ask questions. You may need instructions for a garage door opener, elevator or WIFI setup. Contact your property manager. They are there to help! A brief telephone call prevents a lot of problems.
- Keep your rental home locked while you're out! Don't let thieves spoil your family vacation.
- Record any damages to the rental upon arrival, and immediately send them to the owner. We especially recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain built-in time stamps that can be valuable if a dispute arises.
- Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like disagreeable visitors disrupting your home life. Use the golden rule for best judgement. Happy residents may even recommend great restaurants and places you would've not otherwise known!
- Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Neighbors can frequently point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to spend a rainy day, have a great night out, or the best spots for shopping?
- Don't leave anything behind! Before departing, walk through the rental property to confirm you've collected all personal belongings. Re-check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden treasure. Clean out the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
- Go through the rental a final time and look for any damage. We advise walking through with the host whenever possible. If the host is not available, ensure that you take pictures of the property to record its condition at check-out.
- Did your family have a fantastic stay? Most vacation rental websites make it easy for customers to provide reviews. If your rental and/or host was fantastic, they would love to hear it. If anything was inoperable and they failed to fix it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make a note as part of your feedback.
