Salvo is a hidden GEM, it is located in the Southern end of the “Tri-Villages” of Rodanthe, Waves and Salvo. It feels like it is in a world of its own! The ideal place for beach days, family times and calming with not many distractions!

Come savor this super-cute, open concept home and all it has to offer; let it welcome you back year after year, as this adorable home is sure to be your favorite! Your dog is also welcome here! Your dog will appreciate the little fenced in area on the side yard, and you will have tranquility of mind letting your pup sit on the front and upper deck without being able to get out on the street with the gate to keep them in your view! Deck is new in November 2019. My home is located in the Hatteras Colony neighborhood, which is considered by many as the best on the Island due to the wide streets and two-mile loop of side streets ideal for bicycle riding, walking or pushing a stroller. The kitchen is complete with all you will need and will inspire your inner chef. Fridge has an ice maker in the freezer, Keurig and drip coffee maker. Lots of natural sunlight flow throughout the open living / dining rooms with a vaulted ceiling making it simple to gather together for those special family times. The first floor has two bedrooms (Queen and 2 twins), and bathroom. The upper level has two queen bedrooms, a bathroom, the stackable laundry is conveniently located on this level, and a loft area with a couch, tv and games, sure to keep the kids occupied. The huge upper deck is accessible from the queen bedroom or the loft area. You can relax on this deck and hear the surf. There is a screened in porch next to the kitchen to enjoy your meals on the picnic table, and relax at the end of your day, or enjoy your morning coffee here. A private area underneath the home is a great gathering place with an upsized picnic table, outdoor shower and fish cleaning station with lights and water. You'll find a charcoal grille in the side yard. House has 4 TV's, DVD player, wifi. Linens can be rented through numerous local companies that drop them off at the home if you don’t want to bring your own sheets. The keyless entry makes it so painless to check in and out of the home. This is a nonsmoking home, with a Saturday-to-Saturday rental. It's a one-min. short walk down our street to our beach access, then about a 5-min. walk over the dune to the most enchanting beach in the world! Come experience this calming haven and fall in appreciate with this "hidden gem" the little village of Salvo.

Strategies for getting the best Hatteras vacation rental experience:

Getting the best rental value:

• Book your vacation home as soon as possible. Rental schedules often become available twelve months in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many families book their Summer vacations during Thanksgiving and Christmas gatherings. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Summer time is high season in the Hatteras area. To find the best rental for your budget, we recommend booking in Fall or Spring months. You'll benefit from lower rates, better selection, warm weather and the absence of giant crowds at Hatteras restaurants, beaches, and activities. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter 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 the beach.
• Some hosts offer promotional rates for veterans. Ask your property manager if special discounts are available for your family before you book.
• Management companies and individual rental owners usually offer their guests an option to add trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which costs between 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed vacation time as a result of medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as evacuation costs or charges, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance might be a a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for more information.
• Often, management companies and vacation rental houses supply Hatteras area visitor guide magazines which often include coupons, either offered independently by local companies, or by way of a relationship between the rental management company and the business itself. You can also find Hatteras visitors guide magazine and coupon books at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers.

Finding the best vacation home in the Hatteras area:

• Choose your vacation dates and budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and the bed configuration your group needs. 6 min walk to the beach, Welcome Back is a cozy, pet friendly oceanside cottage! has 4 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our rentals search.
• Specific information regarding bedrooms and bed counts is almost always accessible on booking websites. If they are not listed, contact the property owner before booking the vacation property. Note that most property listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which usually includes pull-out couches.
• Are you traveling with furry, four-legged family members? 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 property manager before booking, and study your rental agreement! Additional pet fees or charges could be applied to your agreement.
• Is your family looking for specific amenities? Most rental websites include amenity lists and search filters. Use these to your advantage to find the perfect rental home.
• Suitable accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for guests with disabilities. Make certain to inquire about wheel chair accessibility, pool lifts and specialized equipment needs.

Tips for a fantastic stay:

• Review arrival and departure procedures before leaving home. Add a note with the instructions to your phone, and take a printed copy.
• Property managers are available to help! Don't be shy to ask questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Lock your vacation home while you're out. Protect the owner's property and your things!
• During check-in, document any damages to the property and immediately contact the owner. Keep records of all correspondence in case a dispute arises.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like disrespectful vacationers bothering your peace. Practice the golden rule for best judgement. Happy residents may even recommend great local food and attractions you would've not otherwise known!
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Local residents can typically point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to order delicious takeout, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for BBQ?
• When it's time to leave, take a final walk-through to make sure you did not forget anything. Make sure to check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden treasure. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Inspect the rental one final time and scan for any damage. We recommend inspecting the property with the property manager whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the property manager is not available, remember to take video of the property to record its condition at check-out.
• Did your group have a excellent stay? Many rental management companies make it easy for travelers to provide comments. If your rental and/or property manager was great, they always love to hear your praise. If anything was wrong 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 feedback.
