OCEANFRONT Salvo - Colony Drive Live the LIFE AQUATIC at this Hatteras Island beach hideaway. Breathtaking beauty is seen through the great room windows that reach to the sky. Morning coffee has never tasted better than when seated at the café table in the oceanfront screened porch. And beach access is simple, just over the dune.

When you arrive for your vacation, unload the car and change into your swim suits for a invigorating dip in the private pool. A wet deck accepts you to lounge in the water, or the kids to play, without going in deep. Spread out a buffet on the outdoor dining table or grille up some lunch on the charcoal grille. The poolside cabana bar has everything you need to relax including a TV, sink, refrigerator and bar counter with stools. An indulgent hot tub is close by for when the sun goes down. An outdoor cabana half bath is conveniently located close by as well.

Inside, find comfort in four well-appointed bedrooms. The top level king suite has private entry into the shared bathroom. Three bedrooms are located on the lower level and include a queen and a pyramid bedroom that share a full bath between them, and another king bedroom with private entry into the hall bathroom.

Meal prep is a breeze in the bright and roomy kitchen with modern appliances and breakfast bar. The dining table is close by and seats the group with ocean vistas. After dinner, gather around the enormous screen TV in the great room for your favorite show or movie on the DVD player. It will be difficult not to be distracted by the blue ocean vistas, so the group might prefer sit on the deck to watch the colors of the sky change at sunset. Climb the spiral staircase to the loft game room with foosball table, another flat screen TV/DVD and a desk. With all that this home has to offer, life is good at LIFE AQUATIC! (Fireplace seen in photos is not available for guest use.)

Tips and Tricks to get the perfect Hatteras vacation property experience:

Getting the most from your rental budget:

• To get the best rental within budget, we recommend reserving in the Spring or Fall. You'll enjoy lower rates, better selection, beautiful weather and the absence of large crowds at Hatteras restaurants, tours, and activities. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, or to book an oceanfront rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during the Summer. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Hatteras vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday on the coast? Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with loved ones at the beach.
• Reserve your rental as early as possible. Rental schedules generally become available 12 months in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many families reserve their Summer rental homes during Winter holiday gatherings. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Some property managers offer rate reductions for veterans. Remember to ask your host or property manager if special offers are available for your family before you book.
• Booking websites typically offer customers an option to purchase trip insurance. Trip insurance, which normally will cost between 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed time as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance might be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for program terms and fees.
• Find a copy of your local Hatteras area magazine when you check-in. If your rental property doesn't have one, you can find them at local shops and visitor centers. In addition to great information, visitor guide magazines have offers and deals for local shops and restaurants.

Make a plan and pick the right Hatteras rental:

• To start, have your family decide on vacation dates and a spending budget.
• Determine how many beds and the configuration your family needs. Oceanfront - Dog Friendly, Pool with Wet Deck, Hot Tub has 4 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our search.
• Precise information regarding bedrooms and bed counts & types is often accessible on booking pages. If not, call the host before booking the property. Note that most property listings specify maximum guest capacity, which frequently includes sofa beds in living rooms. You'll need to establish which bed configuration is suitable for your group.
• Does your group require special amenities? Most rental websites include search filters with amenity lists. Filtering by amenity will allow you to quickly find your ideal rental home.
• Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for those with limited mobility. Confirm all required amenities are available before reserving a rental
• Are you bringing the family pet? Although a number of vacation homes allow pets or animals, guidelines and costs vary per property. Allowable pet type, breed, and size are often limited. Ask your host before booking, and study your rental agreement! Additional pet fees or charges might be applied to your agreement.

Know before you go:

• Take a copy of the property manager's contact number and check in/check out procedures for your rental home.
• During arrival, make note of any issues with the property and immediately contact the host. Record all correspondence in case a dispute arises.
• Hosts are available to help! Feel free to ask any questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Be a good neighbor. Frequently, adjacent homes are occupied by local residents. Respecting late-night noise limits and parking rules is the right thing to do.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Local residents can often help. Who better to ask where to order delicious takeout, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for shopping?
• Keep the property locked while you're gone! Don't let thieves spoil your family vacation.
• Double-check every room of the vacation property to confirm that you've packed everything at departure. Check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden treasure. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Go through the rental a final time and scan for damages to contents or the property itself. We suggest inspecting the property with the host whenever you can. If the property manager isn't available, remember to take photos of the rental to record its condition at check-out.
• Did your family have a excellent stay? Many rental websites make it easy for customers to provide comments. If your rental property and/or host was wonderful, they will likely appreciate your kind words. If anything was imperfect and they failed to address it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make a note as part of your review.
