OCEANFRONT Avon – Since ancient times, mariners have relied on the steadfast Stella Maris — the North Star — to guide them on their seafaring journeys. In much the same way, STELLA MARIS, a five-bedroom/four-bath home perched on the ocean’s edge, is a beacon for the calming hideaway you seek. This freshly modernized home uniquely blends a local sense of place with a cool modern design that instantly envelopes you in comfort and contentment. On the ground level, there is room to park two cars underneath the home so that they are protected from the elements. Avid anglers will note the fish cleaning station with water and lights, a new private outdoor shower, and a gas grille. A set of steps up to the first level leads you to four of the bedrooms: A king bedroom with an ensuite bath and oceanfront deck access; two queens and a pyramid bunk with trundle. All of the home’s bedrooms with the exception of one queen features Roku streaming TVs. Two hallway baths with tiled showers conveniently accommodate the post-beach rush. A six-person hot tub located on the oceanfront deck is covered to accommodate calming soaks with stellar vistas no matter the weather. On the upper level, another king master suite reveals a refreshed ensuite bath and deck access. It’s what is outside of this private space, though, that will capture your imagination: a modern great room where soaring ceilings, sky-high windows and industrial-chic décor bring your family together with an undeniably cool vibe. A cavernous kitchen with granite countertops, stainless appliances and a useful breakfast bar makes vacation-style cooking a enjoyment. Appreciate those meals at a long 10-seat dining table or just outside at a picnic table on the deck. If a TV program compels you to turn away from the beautiful beach vistas, the living room features a sizable-screen Roku-enabled LCD TV that can be viewed from an broad sectional couch. Yet, if you can’t get enough of those vistas, decks on both the ocean and western-facing sides of the home invite you to savor the many sides of nature’s beauty, from sunrise to sunset. Navigate your way to your next memorable hideaway by booking STELLA MARIS today.

Rental home booking tips and tricks:

Getting the most from your budget:

• The sooner your group can book a vacation home, the better your selection will be. The most desirable properties are booked early. Reserving your rental property up to twelve months before your vacation is recommended. Holidays such as Christmas and Thanksgiving are excellent times to plan and reserve your vacation home.
• June, July, and August are the most expensive months in Avon. To find the most suitable vacation home within your budget, we highly recommend booking in Spring or Fall. You'll enjoy lower rates, greater selection, gorgeous weather and the absence of giant crowds at the beach and popular attractions. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Hatteras vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation on the coast? Christmas, Thanksgiving, and New Years Eve are great times to gather with loved ones at the beach.
• Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective vacation rental company or host whether your group qualifies for a discount.
• Property managers frequently offer customers an option to obtain vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which generally will cost between 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed vacation time as a result of medical-related issues or weather, as well as evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance might be a a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for program terms and fees.
• Often, property management companies supply Hatteras area visitor guide magazines that include coupons, either offered directly by local companies, or through a partnership between the property management company and the business itself. You can also find Hatteras visitors guide and coupon books at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers.

Use filters to search efficiently:

• Select vacation week and maximum budget.
• Decide how many bedrooms and the configuration your family requires. Oceanfront Home with Hot Tub, Fish Cleaning Station, and Beautiful Ocean Views has 5 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms.
• Precise information regarding bedrooms and bed counts is generally accessible on booking websites. If not, email or call the property owner before you reserve the vacation property. Remember that most listings specify the max. guest capacity, which usually includes sofa beds in living rooms.
• If your group is bringing pets, filter your search for a pet-friendly vacation rental. Ask for specifics on breed, weight, and type restrictions. Note that some hosts require additional pet deposits and fees.
• If there's a particular Hatteras destination you are crazy about, browse rentals that are either near by, or those that cater especially to your requirements.
• Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for guests that require the use of a wheelchair. Confirm all required amenities are available before reserving a rental

Have a great stay:

• Get the owner's contact number and arrival/departure procedures for your rental property. We recommend storing the host's contact information in your smartphone.
• Property managers are there to help! Don't be shy to ask questions during your stay.
• Lock your rental property while you're out! Don't let burglars spoil your holiday.
• Note any issues with the rental upon arrival, and immediately e-mail them to the host. We specifically recommend e-mails and text messages, as they usually contain built-in time stamps that are helpful if a dispute is filed.
• Be respectful of your neighbors. Often times, nearby homes are filled by local residents. Respecting late-night noise limits and parking rules is the right thing to do.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Locals can often point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to rent beach equipment, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for bird watching?
• On check-out day, complete a walk-through to make sure you didn't leave anything behind. Check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden treasure. Clean 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 you have a terrific time? Many vacation rental websites make it easy for travelers to provide reviews. If your property and/or property management company was fantastic, they will likely appreciate your kind words. 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 review.
