OCEANFRONT Avon- Askins Creek - If the gentle sound of waves provides the ideal soundtrack to your vacation, then you must “press play” on SEA GRAPES. The oceanfront vistas from both levels of this beachfront home are a reminder that nature can both soothe and scintillate, while always providing the ideal backdrop to a memorable family hideaway. Perched on the dune’s edge, this four-bedroom/two-bath home invites you up the outdoor stairs to a sundeck that will become your go-to spot for both coffee and beverages. Step inside to an open and airy living space where a wood-beamed ceiling, wood floor and walls of picture windows invite the natural surroundings in. The sun-soaked living room features comfortable furnishings, a 50" Intelligent TV and Blu-Ray player and tasteful coastal decor. Appreciate preparing your favorite vacation meals in the freshly remodeled eat-in kitchen — or on the charcoal grille outside — and then linger over them around an 8-seat dining table. Clear, starry nights will likely welcome you back out to the deck to wind down the evening.

After a day on the beach or playing in the water at close by Canadian Hole, sleep comes effortlessly in this home’s four bedrooms, including two queen rooms and one room with two twin beds on the first level. A spiral staircase leads to a king master bedroom with its own private deck for stargazing. This home welcomes all of your family, including the dog. Book SEA GRAPES now and experience all that is good about visiting on the beach.

Strategies to get the perfect vacation rental experience:

Cost saving strategies:

• 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 rentals during Thanksgiving and Christmas gatherings. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• June, July, and August are the most expensive months in the Hatteras area. Book your vacation in the Fall or Spring shoulder seasons to enjoy warm weather while saving money and avoiding crowded roads, restaurants, and activities. Many vacationers use this strategy to reserve larger homes, or to book a beach front rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during the Summer months. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Hatteras vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday on the coast? Christmas, Thanksgiving, and New Years Eve are great times to gather with family and friends at the beach.
• Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property manager if your vacationing group qualifies for a special rate.
• Property managers often offer guests an option to add vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which commonly costs between 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed vacation time as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel stay or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance can be a a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for specifics.
• Look for your local Hatteras visitors guide magazine when you check-in. If your rental home doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local shops and visitor centers. In addition to great articles, visitors guide magazines have coupons for nearby attractions, tours, restaurants, and shops.

Planning and choosing the bestrental home:

• Select vacation week and budget.
• Note the number beds and what type of bedroom configuration your family requires. Oceanfront, Dog Friendly Home in Avon w\/ Easy Beach Access, Grill, and Smart TVs has 4 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our Hatteras rental home search.
• Specific details about bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is almost always accessible on booking websites. If they are not listed, call the property management company before booking the rental. Note that most listings specify maximum guest capacity, which usually includes pull-out couches and bunk beds.
• Some rentals allow pets, and others do not. Allowable types of dog or cat, size and breeds may be restricted, and additional charges may apply. Ask the host about allowable breeds and types before booking.
• If there's an individual Hatteras destination you are crazy about, search for rentals that are either close by, or those that cater especially to your requirements.
• Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for those with limited mobility. Make certain to inquire about specialized equipment and wheel chair accessibility.

Advice for a wonderful stay:

• Review arrival and departure procedures before traveling. Add a note with the instructions to your phone, and take a printed copy.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a hot tub, A/V setup or thermostat. Contact your owner. They are there to help! A brief phone call can prevent lots of difficulties.
• Keep the property locked while you are away! Don't let burglars ruin your trip.
• Document any issues with the rental at check in, and immediately send them to the owner. We especially recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain time stamps that are very helpful if damages are attributed to your stay.
• Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking restrictions can make a stay significantly more pleasurable. Be a good neighbor. You'll magnify your chance to make local friends, and resident neighbors are usually an incredible source for finding the best local spots.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Locals can typically help. Who better to ask where to find the best seashells, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for shopping?
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before departing, walk through the property to make sure you've collected all personal items. Check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden treasure. Clean out the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Document the condition of the property at check-out. We recommend taking a video during your final walk-through.
• Did your group have a great stay? Most vacation rental websites make it easy for customers to provide reviews. If your rental and/or property management company was terrific, they would love to hear about it. If anything was defective and they failed to address it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make a note as part of your feedback.
