At Elusive Daydream, the beach permeates every moment! This Cape Hatteras home is perched directly on one of the best beaches for surfing, fishing, and swimming on Hatteras Island, with the famed Cape Hatteras Lighthouse less than a mile away. You can even see the lighthouse from the top floor, and watch the light sweep across the ocean at nighttime as you listen to the waves crash from your comfortable living room or bedroom.

The vistas here are spectacular. If you bring your binoculars, you can see the wild waves of The Point. You can also catch regular glimpses of dolphins swimming just offshore and seabirds diving for fish.

The oceanfront great room on the top floor has handsome tongue-and-groove cedar accents, comfortable furnishings, flat screen TV with Roku and Spectrum cable, a gas fireplace, and decks with striking vistas. Sweet dreams await in the oceanfront primary bedroom on this level, which includes an attached bathroom with a jetted bathtub. You can watch the sun rise up out of the ocean without getting out of your queen bed, but you might want to sneak out through a sliding door to the attached deck to get the full effect of the elegant sunrise. Head up to the furnished, third-level tower to watch the sun set into the sound. This is also a great place to play games and do puzzles, surrounded by water vistas everywhere you look.

On the first level, there's an oceanfront queen bedroom with an en suite bathroom and direct access to a deck overlooking the ocean. The second queen bedroom on this level also has access to the deck. This room shares a hallway bathroom with the third bedroom on this floor, which has two twin beds and a slider to its own private deck. Sit down to eat indoors in the dining area adjacent to the well-equipped kitchen with a breakfast bar, or head outside to the picnic table on the deck next to the kitchen.

The oceanfront hot tub will help melt your cares away.

You'll have a pool table, a foosball table, and a ping-pong table in the garage for rainy day fun, as well as outdoor shower and high-speed internet.

You will be required to sign an additional lease agreement upon making a booking, which will be sent to your e-mail. You will not be able to check in until we have received your signature electronically. Please contact us directly if you do not receive this agreement.

Booking the best rental home experience:

Get the most from your spending budget:

• In the Hatteras area, The earlier you can book a rental home, the easier your search will be. The best rental properties are reserved early. Reserving your rental property six - twelve months before your travel dates is recommended. Winter holidays are excellent times to search for and reserve your rental home.
• Book your Hatteras rental in Fall or Spring months to enjoy gorgeous weather while saving money and avoiding crowds. Many vacationers use this strategy to find larger homes within budget, or to reserve an oceanfront rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during June, July, and August. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Hatteras vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation near the ocean? Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with friends and family at your favorite beach.
• Property management companies sometimes offer promotional rates for veterans and active duty military. Ask your property manager if special offers are available for your family before you book.
• Property management companies frequently offer renters an option to obtain vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which generally will cost anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed vacation time as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance might be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for details.
• Look for your local Hatteras area magazine when you arrive at the rental property. If your rental property doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local grocery stores and visitor centers. In addition to great local articles, visitors guide magazines have coupons for local shops and restaurants.

Selecting the best rental home in the Hatteras area:

• Select your vacation dates and max budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and the bed configuration your family requires. Oceanfront home with amazing ocean views, hot tub, pool access & ping-pong has 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our search.
• Specific information about bedrooms and bed counts & types is almost always available online. If not, call the property manager before you reserve your home. Remember that most property listings specify the max. guest capacity, which typically includes sofa beds. You'll need to determine which bed configuration is suitable for your trip.
• Some rentals allow pets, and others do not. Allowable types of dog or cat, weight and breeds may be restricted, and added fees may apply. Ask the host about allowable pet guidelines before booking.
• If there's an individual Hatteras beach you are crazy about, browse rentals that are either nearby, or those that cater especially to your desires.
• Suitable accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for persons with disabilities. Confirm all necessary amenities are available before reserving a rental.

Additional considerations:

• Review check in & check out procedures before traveling. Add a note with the instructions to your smartphone, and take a printed copy.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a garage door opener, television set or coffee maker. Contact your host. They are there to help! A brief call can prevent quite a few problems.
• Protect the rental owner (and your things!) by keeping the rental locked up when you are gone, just like you would back home.
• During arrival, record any issues with the rental property and immediately contact the owner. Record all coorespondence.
• Respecting quiet hours and parking regulations can make a stay more pleasurable. Be a good neighbor. You'll enhance your chance to make some new local friends, and resident neighbors are a fantastic source for finding the best local spots.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Residents can frequently help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to enjoy a steak with a view, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fishing?
• Don't leave anything behind! Before departing, walk through the rental to reconfirm you've collected all personal belongings. Check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden treasure. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Inspect the rental a final time and keep an eye out for damages to contents or the property itself. We suggest walking through with the host whenever you can. If the manager isn't available, take pictures of the property to record its condition at check-out.
• Remember to leave feedback! Property owners rely on good ratings to stimulate future reservations. They'll be much obliged for your review. Alternatively, if something wasn't right, other vacationers will appreciate that you share your experience and help them have the best future vacation. Please be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the manager had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded expeditiously to solve it.
