A Raye of Sunshine is a gorgeous home located along the fairway on one of the highest elevations in the Currituck Club. This coveted location provides guests with expansive ocean vistas that only a handful of homes within the community can offer. With over 4,300 square feet of indoor living space and a variety of common areas, families can gather together or spread out while still being under one roof. Five of the seven bedrooms include an en suite bath, so everybody can have their own getaway with plenty of space and privacy. An elevator that goes to all three levels and a wheelchair-friendly suite on the ground level make A Raye of Sunshine ideal for guests with accessibility needs.

A reverse floor plan with soaring ceilings and a wall of east-facing windows in the great room takes full advantage of the expansive ocean and golf course vistas. Entertain family and friends in this open-concept space with plenty of comfortable seating and a cozy gas fireplace. It leads out to an broad sun deck for effortless indoor/outdoor living. Use the gas grille and outdoor dining set for al fresco meals with an ocean view. Back inside, charming wood floors flow from the living and dining areas into the kitchen. It overlooks the great room and includes an island with bar seating so guests can still socialize and savor the view while cooking. Two ovens and two dishwashers make cooking and cleaning up for bigger groups a breeze. A sunroom off the dining area is infused with natural light and provides a secluded space for curling up with a good book. The loft includes a sitting area for admiring the sunsets and a desk for catching up with work or school remotely.

At the end of the nighttime, make your way to the top-level primary bedroom where you'll find the same spectacular view as the great room, along with direct access to the deck. Pamper yourself in the roomy en suite bath with generously sized soaking tub and separate walk-in shower. The mid-level includes four additional bedrooms that all provide deck access for appreciating those salty ocean breezes. Gather the family for a movie or the big game in the theater room with a sizable screen TV and two rows of seating. For even more entertainment, head downstairs to the rec room with billiard and shuffleboard tables. The garage has been converted to a second game area complete with air hockey table, ping pong and foosball - really something for everybody! A ground level wet bar is equipped with a full-size refrigerator for storing additional groceries, refilling your drink without having to go upstairs, or grabbing a snack to appreciate poolside. Just outside the rec room, a covered deck overlooks the home's backyard getaway with saltwater pool, hot tub and plenty of space for calming in the sun.

In addition to all the private amenities you'll enjoy at the home, guests will also have access to a variety of recreational activities within the Currituck Club. The golfers in your group can take advantage of discounts to play the 18-hole championship Rees Jones course, offered exclusively to A Raye of Sunshine guests. The community's main clubhouse is less than half a mile from the home and features a exercise center, outdoor pool with Tiki bar, tennis, basketball, shuffleboard and volleyball.

Tips and Tricks to get the optimal Currituck vacation property experience:

Get the best rental home value:

• To find the best vacation home within budget, we strongly suggest booking in the Spring or Fall. You'll benefit from lower rates, greater selection, warm weather and the absence of giant crowds at your favorite Currituck restaurants and activities.
• The sooner your group can reserve a vacation home, the better your selection will be. The most desirable rental homes are reserved very early. Booking your vacation home six - twelve months before your travel dates is recommended. Christmas, Thanksgiving and New Years Eve are excellent times to search for and book your vacation rental.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective host whether your group qualifies for a price reduction.
• Property management companies often offer guests an option to buy vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which will generally cost 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed vacation time as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance can be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for more information.
• Often, management companies and vacation rental houses supply Currituck area visitors guide magazines which often include special offers, either offered directly by local companies, or through a relationship with the rental management company and the business itself. You can also find Currituck visitors guide and coupon books at local gas stations and shopping centers.

How to choose and book the perfectvacation home:

• Choose your vacation week and budget.
• Determine how many beds and what type of bedroom configuration you need. A Raye Of Sunshine: Ocean Views, Saltwater Pool has 7 bedrooms and 8 bathrooms.
• Specific details about bedrooms and bed counts is regularly available online. If they are not listed, call the property manager before reserving your home. Remember that most listings specify maximum guest capacity, which typically includes sofa beds.
• Are you looking for specific amenities? Most websites include amenity lists and search filters. Use these to your advantage to find the perfect rental home.
• Proper accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for the less-mobile. Make certain to ask about specialized equipment and wheel chair accessibility.
• Are you bringing the family pet? Although a number of vacation homes allow pets or animals, guidelines and costs vary per property. Allowable pet type, breed, and size are often limited. Make sure to ask before booking, and study your agreement thoroughly! Extra fees or charges applied to your invoice.

More tips for your stay:

• Add the property manager's contact info to your smartphone. Take a copy of check in/check out procedures.
• To make certain that damages are not attributed to your family's stay, make note of any problem areas during check in. Contact the host immediately to relay any damages. If there is a dispute, having the recorded problems and contact attempts will be very helpful.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a fireplace, elevator or appliance. Contact your owner. They are there to help! A brief text message prevents lots of problems.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like troublesome vacationers disrupting your peaceful home. Apply the golden rule for common sense. If they like you, locals might even recommend great beaches and scenic spots you would've never otherwise known about!
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Local residents can usually point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to take kids for a treat, have a great night out, or the best spots for fine dining?
• Lock your rental home while you are out. Keep your property safe!
• Don't leave anything behind! Before you drive away, walk through the rental to reconfirm you've collected all personal items. Re-check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden treasure. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Please make sure to walk through the property one final time and scan for damages to contents or the property itself. We advise inspecting the property with the property manager whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the property manager is not available, remember to take pictures of the property to record its condition at check-out.
• Did your group have a wonderful time? Most rental managers make it easy for travelers to provide comments. If your rental property and/or property management company was great, they always love to hear your praise. If anything was out of order and they failed to address it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make it a point as part of your comments.
