Get a taste of what's it's like to live A Beach Life when you stay at this well-maintained oceanside home in laid-back Salvo. A Beach Life is located on a peaceful street in the Wimble Shores community, where you can take a walk or bicycle ride to the beach access at the end of the street for a fun-filled day of sun, sand and waves. Come home and relax with a calming soak in the bubbly hot tub or spend quality time with adored ones in the tiki-style game room. This thoughtfully equipped recreation space features a foosball table and a poker table that can be converted to bumper pool.

Upstairs, you'll find a casual and family-friendly living area with vaulted ceilings, comfortable electric fireplace and generous natural light. It leads out to an broad sun deck for plenty of Vitamin D and salty coastal breezes. The chef in your group will savor the completely supplied kitchen and open-concept layout, where they can prepare a family feast while still being part of the action. With a table for six and bar seating for two, everybody can sit down and appreciate meals together. Or make it an alfresco affair using the outdoor dining set on the covered porch, conveniently located just off the dining area. The top-level bedroom is a roomy getaway with king bed and access to a semi-private bath. Downstairs, three additional bedrooms, including a queen ensuite, will comfortably accommodate family and friends. A Beach Life is pet-friendly, so you can even include your four-legged family members on the guest list.

A Beach Life is located on the northern end of Salvo, where the pristine beaches are wide and uncrowded. St. Waves Plaza is just short walk from the home, where guests can stock up on provisions at Waves Market and Deli or grab a bite to eat at Leonardo's Pizza. While the location is ideal for guests looking for a remote and natural setting, it's still within a mile radius from watersports, surf stores, take-out options, ice cream and the trendy Watermen's Bar and Grille. Slightly farther north you'll find even more dining and shopping options in the town of Rodanthe. Be sure to set aside a day for a trip to Cape Hatteras, where you can climb the lighthouse, go driving on the beach, or hop on a ferry to Ocracoke.

Animals allowed. No smoking/vaping.

Strategies to get the best vacation home experience:

How to get the best rental value:

• Booking in Fall or Spring months is a good way to save on your rental home. Rates are lower, and you'll find a larger selection of desirable homes.
• Book your rental as early as possible. Rental schedules generally become available a year in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many groups reserve their Summer rental homes during Winter holiday get-togethers. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Hosts and Property managers sometimes offer discounts or promotional rates for veterans. Ask your host or property manager if special discounts are available for your family before you book.
• Management companies and individual rental owners usually offer customers an option to add trip insurance. Trip insurance, which commonly will cost anywhere between 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed trip time as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional evacuation costs or charges, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for more information.
• Many rental management companies supply Hatteras area visitor guide magazines which often include money-saving deals, either offered independently by local businesses, or by way of a partnership between the management company and the business itself. You can also find Hatteras visitors guide and coupon books at local gas stations and shopping centers.

Planning, selecting, and booking the perfectrental home:

• Select a group leader, choose your trip dates, and choose a max budget.
• Rec Room
• Specific details about bedrooms and bed counts is normally accessible on booking pages. If they are not listed, contact the property manager before you book the property. Note that most properties list the max. guest capacity, which typically includes sofa beds in living rooms.
• If there's a specific Hatteras beach you are enamored with, browse properties that are either close by, or those that cater especially to your needs.
• Suitable accessibility can make or break a vacation for persons with a disability. Remember to confirm all required amenities are available and included before reserving a rental
• If your family is vacationing with pets, you'll need to search for a rental that allows animals. Get information on breed, size, and type requirements. Usually, hosts charge pet deposits and fees.

Tips to have a fantastic stay:

• Be sure you get the owner's phone number and arrival/departure procedures for your rental home.
• Note any damages to the property at check in, and immediately contact the property manager. We especially recommend e-mails and text messages, as they usually contain time stamps that can be helpful if a dispute is filed.
• Property managers are there to help! Don't be shy to ask questions during your stay.
• Be a good neighbor. Often, adjacent homes are occupied by permanent residents. Respecting late-night noise limits and parking regulations is the right thing to do.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Locals can frequently point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to get the best seafood, have a great night out, or the best spots for bird watching?
• Keep your rental home locked while you are gone! Don't let burglars spoil your trip.
• Re-check every room of the vacation property to confirm that you've packed all belongings at check-out. Check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden treasure. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Did your group have a great vacation? Many rental home management companies make it easy for customers to provide comments. If your rental property and/or property manager was terrific, they always love to hear your praise. If anything was inoperable and they failed to fix it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make it a point as part of your feedback.
