Welcome to the Sea Shanty! This laid-back beach bungalow is the ideal place to relax on Hatteras Island. The beach is just up the street, and you’re close enough to run home for a snack, drink, or short break from the sun. Crabbing, chartered fishing and scuba boats are just across the Village on the broad Pamlico Sound. Both the Hatteras Village Park and Hatteras Landing, featuring shopping, marinas, and dining, are close by. Plus, the complimentary ferry to Ocracoke is an simple walk from the Sea Shanty. A short distance more takes you to the Graveyard of the Atlantic Museum and Ramp 55 to the ends of the island.

Outside, you’ll savor the covered deck, sporting cheerful string lights and new decking. The stairs lead directly to the beach, just a few homes down. Wildlife abounds, with tons of greenery and estuaries close by…you’re sure to spot the local deer among the sea oats on the dunes, brown pelicans and other sea birds, nesting sea turtles, and so much more on the shore. After a visit to the beach, rinse off in the well-lit, hot-water outdoor shower before stepping inside.

Inside the Sea Shanty, you’ll find an open living space with plenty of room to gather. The well-equipped kitchen features everything you need to sauté, bake, grille, or boil. Make memories at the additional-sizable dining table over coffee or an ice-cold beer. Break out a puzzle, board game, or cards – poker, anyone? – to occupy your evenings after a home-cooked seafood boil or a visit to one of Hatteras’ award-winning seafood eateries. At the end of the nighttime, three bedrooms await, all with new streaming TVs and new beds. Rest assured the Sea Shanty will be a calming and comfortable bungalow for your vacation to the wild winds and blowing sands of the Cape Hatteras National Seashore!

Vacation rental booking tips:

Get the best rental home value:

• Reserve your vacation in the Fall or Spring to enjoy gorgeous weather while saving money and avoiding crowded roads, restaurants, and activities. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Hatteras vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation on the coast? Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with loved ones at your favorite beach.
• Book your rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules generally become available a year in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many groups reserve their Summer rentals during Winter holiday gatherings. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property owner if your group qualifies for a price reduction or discount.
• Property management companies frequently offer customers an option to buy trip insurance. Trip insurance, which normally costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed vacation time as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for program terms and fees.
• Look for your local visitors guide when you arrive at the rental property. If your rental home doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local grocery stores and visitor centers. In addition to great local information, visitors guide magazines contain offers and deals for nearby tours and attractions.

Selecting the perfect vacation rental:

• Start by choosing your the best vacation week and a maximum budget.
• Decide how many beds and the configuration your family needs. Charming oceanside beach cottage - short walk to private beach access & marinas has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Precise information about bedrooms and bed counts is regularly accessible online. If not, reach out to the property management company before booking your rental. Remember that most property listings specify maximum guest capacity, which usually includes sofa beds and bunks.
• If there's a certain Hatteras destination you long to visit, keep an eye out for properties that are either near by, or those that cater to your requirements.
• Suitable accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for guests with disabilities. Confirm all required amenities are available before booking.
• Are you traveling with furry, four-legged family members? Many vacation homes allow animals, but guidelines and restrictions apply. Type of pet, size and breeds may be limited. Make sure to ask before booking, and study your rental agreement! Pet fees or charges could be applied to your agreement.

Tips to have a great stay:

• Be sure you get the property manager's phone number and check in/check out procedures for your .
• To make sure that damages are not linked to your visit, inspect the rental for any problem areas during check in. Speak to the property manager right away to document any pre-existing damages. If there is a dispute, having a record of problems and contact attempts will be valuable.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a hot tub, A/V setup or appliance. Contact your owner. They are there to help! A brief text message can prevent many difficulties.
• Respecting quiet hours and parking regulations can make a stay significantly more pleasurable. You'll magnify your chance to make local friends, and resident neighbors are a terrific source for finding the best local spots.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Locals can often help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to get the best breakfast in town, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for bird watching?
• Lock your rental home while you are out and about. Keep your property safe!
• When it's time to leave, take a walk-through to confirm you did not forget any personal items. Check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden treasure. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Inspect the property one final time and look for damages to contents or the property itself. We recommend inspecting the property with the property manager whenever you can. If the host is not available, ensure that you take pictures of the property to record its condition.
• Did you have a wonderful vacation? Most rental home management companies make it easy for customers to provide reviews. If your rental and/or property management company was wonderful, they would love to hear it. If anything was imperfect and they failed to address it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make a note as part of your review.
