OCEANFRONT Waves - Sea Vista Dr. - Immerse yourself in the serene natural beauty of one of the nation's most beloved coastal destinations. Wrapped in 180-degree protected ocean vistas and miles of white sand beach surrounded by pristine conserved parklands, CAROLINA DUNE is the ideal vacation destination offering unrivaled relaxation and recreational opportunities. An oceanfront, well-manicured, and modern property has got it all for a great vacation with your family. Beach access couldn't get much easier than walking over the dune right from your property, and the amenities package at home provides entertainment, multiple common areas, and flexible sleeping arrangements. A dip in the private oceanfront pool is a great way to start your vacation—lounge around the cavernous pool area with tons of seating and a close by Tiki bar. The 6-person hot tub is tucked under the home for protection from the weather, and an outdoor shower provides a invigorating rinse from a long beach day. Inside the home, a game room greets you on the first level with a pool table, comfortable couch seating in front of a enormous screen TV with a Blu-ray player and sound system, a wet bar with a mini-refrigerator, and a game table for board games or puzzles.

Select from four striking bedrooms on the home's mid-level, including two king master bedrooms with walk-in tile showers in their private baths. The other two bedrooms on this level, one with two sets of bunk beds and the other with two single beds, share the hall bath. Find one more king master bedroom on the home's top level with a private bath, ocean vistas, and access to the deck. The great room astounds with vaulted ceilings, exposed beams, a wood floor, and fashonable, beach-themed decor. Gather around the huge screen TV with Blu-ray player to appreciate your favorite shows or gaze through the broad windows at the ocean view. The kitchen will delight you with modern stainless-steel appliances, tile floor, modren countertops and backsplash, and a breakfast bar with seating for four. The dining area is tucked alongside the kitchen with ocean vistas, and a half bath provides convenience. For some peaceful time apart from the group, relax in the top-level den with sizable screen TV, DVD player, and couch bed. Two levels of furnished decking provide both shade and sun for escaping with a good book or relishing in the sea breeze with morning coffee. Whatever your vacation expectations are, you'll be "dune" alright with CAROLINA DUNE. (Fireplace seen in photos is not available for guest use.)

How to get the best Hatteras rental experience:

How to get the best rental value:

• Summer months are the most expensive season in the Hatteras area. To find the best value, try changing your vacation dates to the Spring or Fall months. May, September, and October offer great temperatures, less crowded beaches, and greatly reduced traffic. Many vacationers use this strategy to find larger homes within budget, or to book an oceanfront rental that would otherwise be unavailable during the high season.
• In the Hatteras area, The earlier you can book a vacation home, the easier your search will be. The best properties are booked early. Booking your vacation rental up to 12 months before your vacation is recommended. Holidays such as Christmas and Thanksgiving are excellent times to search for and book your rental.
• Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property manager whether your vacationing group qualifies for a special rate.
• Management companies and individual rental owners often offer renters an option to obtain vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which normally costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for days missed as a result of medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel stay or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for specifics.
• Many rental management companies and vacation rental houses supply Hatteras area visitor guide magazines which will include money-saving offers, either offered directly by local businesses, or through a relationship between the rental management company and the business itself. You can also find Hatteras visitors guide and coupon books at local gas stations and shopping centers.

Selecting and booking a perfectrental:

• Choose a designated group leader, select your vacation week, and choose a budget.
• Decide how many bedrooms and what type of bedroom configuration your group requires. Oceanfront - Pool, Hot Tub, Game Room, Cmty Pool & Tennis Court has 6 bedrooms and 6 bathrooms.
• Precise information regarding bedrooms and bed counts & types is commonly accessible on booking pages. If not, contact the property owner before reserving the vacation property. Remember that most properties list the max. guest capacity, which typically includes sofa beds in living rooms. You'll need to establish what configuration is right for your vacation family.
• Does your group require special amenities? Most websites include amenity lists and search filters. Use these to your advantage to find the perfect rental home.
• Suitable accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for persons with a disability. Confirm all required amenities are available and included before booking
• Remember to include your furry companions! Many vacation homes allow animals, but guidelines and restrictions apply. Type of pet, size and breeds may be limited. Remember to ask your host before booking, and study your agreement thoroughly! Additional fees or charges may be applied to your contract.

Some things to know before you go:

• Add the host's contact information to your smartphone. Take a copy of arrival/departure procedures.
• To ensure that damages aren't linked to your visit, record any problem areas upon your arrival. Call the property manager right away to record any issues. If there is a dispute, having a record of problems and contact attempts will be valuable.
• Property managers are available to help! Feel free to ask questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Respecting quiet hours and parking policies can make a stay more pleasurable. You'll magnify your chance to make some new local friends, and resident neighbors are often an excellent source for finding the best local beaches.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Residents can frequently help. Who better to ask where to order delicious takeout, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for BBQ?
• Ensure you protect the rental owner (and your stuff!) by locking and securing the home while you are gone, just like you would at home.
• Don't leave anything behind! Before departing, walk through the property to reconfirm you've collected all personal items. Re-check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden treasure. Clean out the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Inspect the property a final time and scan for damage. We recommend walking through with the property manager whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the manager isn't available, take video of the rental to record its condition.
• Did you have a terrific vacation? Most vacation rental websites make it easy for guests to provide comments. If your property and/or property manager was terrific, they will likely appreciate your kind words. If anything was inoperable and they failed to address it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make a note as part of your comments.
