SOUNDFRONT AVON – Portside Drive – Located on one of the best private kite beaches in Kinnakeet Shores, TWINTIP, a 3,400-sq.-ft. home is both serene and exhilarating. Wind-seekers can launch a kite or windsurf right from the sandy area behind the home. On windless days, kayakers and stand-up paddleboarders will savor the Pamlico sound. Roomy and intimate, this six-bedroom, six full and one half-bathroom home is ideal for groups of friends or multi-generational families with kids. The gentle waters of the sound, private sandy beach, and 24-foot pool constitute the ultimate playground.

Indoors, the first level offers a cavernous game room with a pool table, kitchenette, and laundry room. The first level bedroom is equipped with two bunk beds and a shared full bathroom. On the second level, four ensuite bedrooms each have a TV and direct deck access. The six-person hot tub is a magnet at the end of the day as the sun sets over the sound. A fifth bedroom on this level features a queen size bed and access to the deck and hot tub.

On the light-filled third level, you will gather in the home’s great room, kitchen, and dining area to renew connections and appreciate convivial conversation. Take in the sound vistas from floor-to-ceiling windows as you create memorable meals in a roomy kitchen featuring a breakfast island and brand-new stainless appliances. The deck features excellent vistas of the sound, sunsets, and wildlife. The main bedroom with ensuite bathroom offers both sunrise and sunset vistas. A comfortable reading nook above the great room offers a working space and impressive vistas east and west.

TwinTip is a short drive from an elegant supermarket and public beach access. The Kinnakeet Shores community also enjoys two tennis courts and a 50 meter Olympic-sized pool.

There’s much to discover here in the Outer Banks including the Cape Hatteras lighthouse and "Canadian Hole," one of the world's best kiting/windsurfing spots. A week at TWINTIP will create memories forever.

How to book the best Hatteras vacation home experience:

Sticking to a budget:

• Book your vacation rental as early as possible. Rental schedules often become available a year in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many families reserve their Summer rental homes during Thanksgiving and Christmas gatherings. Book 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 is our best tip for saving money on your rental home. Rates are lower, and you'll find a better selection of acceptable homes.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property manager or host if your group qualifies for a special rate.
• Property managers frequently offer their guests an option to buy trip insurance. Trip insurance, which normally costs between 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any days missed as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel stay or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance can be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for additional information.
• 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, shopping centers, and visitor centers. In addition to great articles, visitor guide magazines contain money saving offers on local restaurants, attractions, and tours.

Make a plan and pick the perfectrental:

• Select your dates and spending budget.
• Decide how many bedrooms and what type of bedroom configuration your family needs. Sound Front Dog Friendly House with Windsurfing Access, Pool, Hot Tub, Game Room has 7 bedrooms and 6 bathrooms.
• Precise information about bedrooms and bed types is often available on booking websites. If you don't see them listed, email the host before booking the property. Note that most property listings specify the max. guest capacity, which often includes sofa beds in living rooms.
• If your family is traveling with pets, you must book a pet-friendly property. Request details on breed, weight, and type requirements. Often, hosts require additional pet deposits and fees.
• If there's a certain Hatteras destination you crave, search for rentals that are either close by, or those that cater especially to your desires.
• Appropriate accessibility can make or break a vacation for those with limited mobility. Confirm all required amenities are available and included before reserving a rental.

During your stay:

• Review check in & check out procedures before traveling. Take a printed copy, and save the instructions to your phone.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a garage door opener, intercom or thermostat. Contact your host. They are there to help! A brief telephone call can prevent quite a few difficulties.
• Lock your rental property while you are gone! Don't let burglars ruin your family vacation.
• Make a record of any issues with the rental upon arrival, and immediately contact the owner. We specifically recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain built-in time stamps that are beneficial if a dispute arises.
• Don't forget to respect your neighbors. Frequently, surrounding homes are filled by permanent residents. Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking rules reduces conflict and allows everyone to enjoy their day.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Local residents can often help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to get the best seafood, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for BBQ?
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before you drive away, take a walk through the rental to confirm you've collected all personal items. Remember to check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden treasure. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Document the condition of the property at check-out. We recommend taking a video during your final walk-through.
• After your trip, leave feedback! Property owners rely on excellent reviews to drive new bookings. They'll be grateful for your review. Alternatively, if something went wrong, other families will be thankful you shared your experience and help them have the best future vacation. Please be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the host had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded reasonably to fix it.
