OCEANFRONT — Greenwood Place — Settle into the awe of nature’s presence located in a pristine dune-top perch at SEASHELLA. Outside, the oceanside panorama is salve for the soul. Inside, warm Juniper wood and calming shades of blue are subtle reminders of the tamed wildness of Hatteras Island. Set back from the road, SEASHELLA offers two covered carports, two outdoor showers, a fish-cleaning table, and a private boardwalk that provides convenient dune-crossing access to the beach.

The first level is dedicated to dreams — the kind that come effortlessly when you sleep in well-appointed comfort. One master bedroom features a king bed and a intelligent TV/DVD. Two additional rooms offer access to a screened-in porch: one with two bunk beds and another with a queen. Both have intelligent TVs/DVDs and share a full hallway bath. A second queen bedroom features a intelligent TV/DVD and private full bath.

The second level is superbly designed for family gatherings. Prep your fresh-catch-of-the-day in the bespoke-designed kitchen and appreciate it around the 10-seat dining table. Then, join in the great room to regale the day or stream a classic on the intelligent TV/DVD. The kitchen opens to a cavernous deck and screened-in porch with sweeping ocean vistas and rolling ocean waves. Any time you choose, soak in the six-person hot tub and revel in the contentment of the bubbling warm water and the sea across the sand. The king master suite offers true respite with a extravagant full bath. Secure your private getaway to SEASHELLA today. Your memories await.

Tricks and tips for getting the best Hatteras vacation home experience:

When to book & When to go:

• Summertime is the most expensive season in Avon. Book your Hatteras vacation in the Fall or Spring to enjoy beautiful 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 often become available a year in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many families reserve their Summer rentals during Thanksgiving and Christmas gatherings. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Some property managers offer special rates for veterans and active duty military. It's always a good idea to check with your property manager to see if special offers are available for your family.
• Booking websites frequently offer renters an option to add vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which normally costs between 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for days missed as a result of medical-related issues or weather, as well as ensuing additional evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance can be a a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for more information.
• Look for your local Hatteras visitors guide when you arrive at the rental property. If your rental doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local grocery stores and visitor centers. In addition to great local stories, travel guides contain deals for local accommodations and attractions.

Filter your rental search:

• First, have your family select vacation dates and a max budget.
• Decide how many beds and the configuration your family needs. Oceanfront, Dog Friendly Cottage w/ Pool, Hot Tub, and Nearby Beach Boardwalk has 5 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our Hatteras rentals search.
• Precise details about bedrooms and bed counts is almost always accessible on booking websites. If not, contact the property management company before you reserve the home. Note that most properties list maximum guest capacity, which oftentimes includes sofa beds in living rooms.
• Does your group require 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 persons with a disability. Make certain to inquire about wheel chair accessibility, pool lifts and specialized equipment needs.
• Remember to include your furry companions! Although a number of vacation homes allow pets or animals, guidelines and costs vary per property. Type of pet, size and breeds may be limited. Ask your property manager before booking, and study your agreement thoroughly! Pet fees or might be applied to your contract.

More tips for your stay:

• Get the owner's contact number and entry/exit procedures for your rental. Put the manager's information in your smartphone and wallet.
• Document any damages to the rental at check in, and immediately send them to the property manager. We especially recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain time stamps that can be helpful if there is a dispute.
• Hosts are great sources of help! Feel free to ask any questions during your stay.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like troublesome visitors bothering your quiet neighborhood. Apply the golden rule for common sense. If they like you, locals might even recommend great restaurants and attractions you would have never otherwise known about!
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Neighbors can frequently help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to see a beautiful sunrise or sunset, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fishing?
• Lock your rental home while you are out and about. Protect the owner's property and your stuff!
• Don't leave anything behind! Before you drive away, take a walk through the property to reconfirm you've collected all of your things. Check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden items. Clean out the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Document the condition of the property at check-out. We recommend taking a video during your final walk-through.
• Did your family have a great stay? Most vacation rental websites make it easy for travelers to provide reviews. If your rental property and/or host was terrific, they would love to hear it. If anything was inoperable and they failed to correct it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make a note as part of your review.
