From the sandy beach just 100 yards away to the sun-kissed private oceanfront pool, it’s simple to slide into relaxation mode from the moment you arrive. Need a little more coaxing? A hot tub obliges with a bubbly massage. Those who thrive on a little more action will find it hard to pass on the basketball hoop in the driveway or the game room on the ground level that features a pool table, wet bar, full-size refrigerator, microwave, and a flat screen TV. A four-seat table in this space is ideal for games, cards or a spontaneous snack attack.

There’s nothing more calming than falling to sleep to the symphony of waves and SALTY PAWS obliges with eight bedrooms including five kings, a queen, and two with pyramid bunk beds. Four of the bedrooms offer private baths, two of which feature whirlpool tubs. Four of the bedrooms offer private access to an oceanfront deck. All of the rooms feature flat screen TVs.

On the upper level, soaring ceilings and floor-to-ceiling windows amplify the great room’s cavernous surroundings, an ideal setting for families to relax, revitalize and reconnect. Six stools surround the well-equipped kitchen’s breakfast bar that, in addition to an eight-seat dining table, allow everybody to eat together at mealtime. Cozy seating in the living room offers ideal sight lines for the flat screen TV. Ultimately, you may want to switch from channel surfing to surf-watching from the oceanfront deck, especially after the sun sets and the stars come out to play.

Tips and Tricks to get the very best vacation home experience:

How to get the best value:

• June, July, and August are the most expensive months in Salvo. To book the most suitable rental home within your budget, we recommend reserving in the Fall or Spring. You'll benefit from lower rental rates, greater selection, warm weather and the absence of large crowds at popular attractions and restaurants. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, or to reserve an oceanfront vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable during June, July, and August.
• In the Hatteras area, The earlier you can book a vacation home, the better your selection will be. The most desirable vacation rentals are reserved very early. Reserving your rental home 6-12 months before your vacation dates is recommended. Holiday gatherings are excellent times to search for and reserve your vacation rental.
• Some property management companies offer discounts or promotional rates for veterans and active duty military. Make sure to check with your property manager to see if special discounts are available for your family before you book.
• Management companies and individual rental owners frequently offer guests an option to purchase vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which commonly costs between 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed days as a result of medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for additional information.
• Find a copy of your local 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, shopping centers, and visitor centers. In addition to great local information, visitor guide magazines contain deals for nearby accommodations, restaurants and tours.

Use filters to narrow your rental search:

• Start by having your group agree to vacation dates and a maximum budget.
• Decide how many beds and what type of bedroom configuration your family requires. Oceanfront, Dog Friendly Home with Pool, Hot Tub, Game Room, and Wet Bar has 8 bedrooms and 8 bathrooms.
• Precise information about bedrooms and bed counts & types is almost always available on booking pages. If they are not listed, call the property management company before you book the property. Remember that most properties list maximum guest capacity, which usually includes sofa beds and bunks.
• Are you visiting for a specific attraction? If so, use a map search to locate nearby properties.
• Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for those with limited mobility. Confirm all necessary amenities are available and included before reserving a rental
• If your group is traveling with pets, you must book a pet-friendly property. Make sure to ask for specifics on breed, size, and type requirements. Some property owners charge pet deposits and fees.

Advice for a great stay:

• Store the host's contact information in your smartphone.
• To make certain that damages aren't linked to your stay, note any problem areas when you arrive. Get in touch with the rental manager right away to record any issues. If there is a dispute about who is responsible, having the recorded issues and contact attempts will be helpful.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a hot tub, stereo or appliance. Contact your property manager. They are there to help! A brief call prevents many concerns.
• Respect your neighbors. Often, nearby homes are filled by local residents. Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking rules reduces conflict and allows everyone to enjoy their day.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Neighbors can typically help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to see a beautiful sunrise or sunset, have a great night out, or the best spots for crabbing?
• Ensure you protect the property owner (and your things!) by locking and securing the home while you are out, just like you would at home.
• At departure, complete a walk-through to confirm you did not leave anything behind. Check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden treasure. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Did your family have a fantastic time? Many vacation rental websites make it easy for customers to provide reviews. If your rental property and/or property management company was fantastic, they always love to hear your praise. If anything was wrong and they failed to correct it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make a note as part of your review.
