OCEANFRONT Avon- Private Drive A private drive off of Route 12 brings you to your Hatteras Island Retreat. Park next to the horseshoe pits or in the covered area under the home. On the ground level, accessible by outside entrance only, a game room greets you on the right featuring a pool table, enormous 47” LCD T.V., impressive sound system, and painless access to the huge in-ground pool. Of course the game room has a refrigerator, wet-bar, microwave (for those late nighttime popcorn snacks), a couch bed and full bath. Sliding doors provide entry to the Tiki bar and seating area overlooking the pool. Additional comfortable lounge and deck chairs and pool lighting will make this area a focal point of your stay. The saltwater pool provides additional comfort for swimming and other pool activities. In addition, a gas grille, picnic table and a cozy hot tub will regenerate you after a long day of adventuring on the Outer Banks. A full outdoor shower and multiple foot showers are available.

CASABLANCA sits back about 900 feet from the ocean protecting the home and pool but still offering simple access to the beach by way of a walkway and covered overlook. CASABLANCA is walking distance to Avon Fishing Pier, eateries, and shopping.

The mid-level of the home has two king master bedrooms each with their private full bath. They share a common covered balcony overlooking the pool and beach walkway, and a cozy swing that the kids will adore. Three more bedrooms are available on this level, two with bunk beds and the third with queen bed is located next to the full hall bath. All the rooms are equipped with TV/DVD to watch that movie from bed that you discovered in the movie library on the top floor of the home.

An open, airy, roomy feel greets you on the top level with vaulted ceilings. Windows on the front, back and both sides of the home bring in sunny, breezy air. You may just want to turn the A/C off and savor the breezes. The top floor breakfast nook can accommodate that late-riser with eggs, bacon, pancakes and juice. Or it can be a place where the kids and adults appreciate a game that they found in the handy game chest. A sizable, well-equipped kitchen will delight any prepare and there is plenty of seating flexibility for the entire group from the huge dining table, to host memorable dinners, to the handy kitchen bar for sandwiches and snacks. After dinner, kick back in front of the 50” LCD TV and sound system with Netflix (on the Roku) and cable or step out onto the oceanfront balcony overlooking the pool and ocean with constructed-in seating on the sides. A week at CASABLANCA will leave you with a summer full of memories and want for a return visit in the near future! This home does not have a landline.

Strategies for getting the perfect vacation rental experience:

Get the best value:

• Book your vacation rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules often open a year in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many families book their Summer vacations during Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years Eve gatherings. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• June, July, and August are high season in the Hatteras area. Booking a rental in the Fall or Spring shoulder seasons is a great way to save money on your rental home. Rental rates are lower, and you'll find a better selection of suitable properties. Many vacationers use this method to find larger homes within budget, or to book a beach front rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during the Summer months.
• Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property owner or host if your group qualifies for a price reduction or discount.
• Management companies and individual rental owners frequently offer guests an option to obtain trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which generally will cost you 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed time as a result of medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for additional information.
• Find a copy of your local Hatteras visitors guide magazine when you check-in. If your rental property doesn't have one, you can find them at local grocery stores and visitor centers. In addition to great local articles, travel guide magazines contain discounts for nearby restaurants, attractions, and tours.

Narrow your rental Search:

• Select a group leader, choose your trip dates, and select a max budget.
• Determine how many beds and the configuration your group needs. Oceanfront Dog Friendly Home in Avon- Pool, Hot Tub, Game Rm, Boardwalk to Beach has 5 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our vacation rental search.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed types is generally available online. If not, contact the host before reserving the home. Note that most properties list maximum guest capacity, which usually includes sofa beds and bunks. You will need to work out what is right for your vacation group.
• Some properties allow pets, but some do not. Allowable types of dog or cat, weight and breeds may be restricted, and added fees may apply. Ask the host about pets before booking.
• Are you visiting for a single event or attraction? Try a map search to browse nearby properties.
• Suitable accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for the less-mobile. Remember to confirm all necessary amenities are available and included before booking

More considerations:

• Review check in & check out procedures before traveling. Add a note with the directions to your phone, and take a printed copy.
• Hosts are available to help! Feel free to ask any questions during your stay.
• Keep your rental home locked while you're out! Don't let crooks ruin your vacation.
• At Check-in, make note of any damages to the rental property and immediately contact the owner. Record all coorespondence.
• Respecting quiet hours and parking rules can make a stay significantly more pleasurable. Be a good neighbor. You'll increase your chance to make local friends, and resident neighbors can be an excellent resource to find the best local beaches and restaurants.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Residents can typically help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to get the best seafood, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for BBQ?
• Double-check the rental property to confirm that you've packed all of your belongings at check-out. Make sure to check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden treasure. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Please make sure to walk through the property one final time and look for any damage. We advise walking through with the property manager whenever possible. If the host isn't available, ensure that you take photos and video of the rental to record its condition at check-out.
• Remember to leave a review! Property owners rely on excellent ratings to stimulate more reservations. They'll be thankful for your review. Alternatively, if something wasn't as described, other vacationing families will will be grateful for your experience and help them have the best future vacation. Please be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the property manager could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded expeditiously to remedy it.
