Totally refreshed in 2015 and impeccably maintained, this unique waterfront home will feel like a breath of fresh air as soon as you walk through the door. The sound is literally in your backyard and guests can use the shared pier for fishing, crabbing or launching kayaks. An open-concept layout and a wall of west-facing windows in the great room take full advantage of the unobstructed water vistas and impressive sunsets. The dining area opens up onto a soundfront sun deck that overlooks the backyard. In addition to your own private swimming pool, this thoughtfully designed outdoor getaway includes a poolside gazebo with outdoor dining set, plenty of room for calming in the sun, and convenient access to the pier.

Back inside, the centrally located kitchen is the heart of the home and includes an island with bar seating so meal prep can be a family affair. Upgrades include stainless steel appliances, quartz countertops, and coastal-inspired mosaic backsplash. The cavernous primary bedroom is located on the top level, away from the other bedrooms and common areas. At the end of the evening, you can getaway to this private suite that offers a gorgeous view of the sound along with access to a private covered deck. The primary bath is equally impressive, featuring dual vanities and a humongous walk-in shower with elegant bespoke tilework. A half a flight of stairs up from the primary you'll find a dedicated workspace in the ship's watch, where you can stay caught up with work or school remotely while appreciating the best view in the home. Four additional bedrooms (three of which include ensuite baths) will comfortably accommodate family and friends.

Tips and Tricks to get the optimal vacation home experience:

Finding your perfect rental:

• Summer is high season in Corolla. To find the most suitable rental home within budget, we suggest reserving in the Fall or Spring. You'll benefit from lower rental rates, better selection, gorgeous weather and the absence of large crowds at Currituck restaurants, tours, and activities. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Currituck vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation on the coast? Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with family and friends at the beach.
• Book your rental as early as possible. Rental schedules usually open twelve months in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many groups book their Summer rentals during Winter holiday get-togethers. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Some property managers offer discounts for veterans and active duty military. Check with your host or property manager to see if special offers are available for your family.
• Property managers usually offer customers an option to add vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which normally costs between 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed vacation time as a result of medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional evacuation costs or charges, such as an unanticipated hotel or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance can be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for additional information.
• Often, rental management companies and vacation rental houses supply Currituck area travel guides which include money-saving deals, either offered directly by local companies, or through a partnership between the rental management company and the business itself. You can also find Currituck visitors guide and coupon books at local shops and grocery stores.

How to select the best rental home in the Currituck area:

• Choose a group leader, choose your vacation dates, and choose a max budget.
• Pool
• Precise information about bedrooms and bed counts is commonly accessible online. If they are not listed, call the property manager before you book the vacation property. Remember that most properties list the maximum guest capacity, which often includes sofa beds in living rooms. You'll need to establish which bed configuration is right for your vacation family.
• Are you visiting for a single attraction? If so, use a map search to locate nearby properties.
• Suitable accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for persons with a disability. Make certain to ask about wheel chair accessibility, pool lifts and specialized equipment needs.
• Are you traveling with furry, four-legged family members? Many vacation homes allow animals, but guidelines and restrictions apply. Type of pet, size and breeds may be limited. Remember to ask the property manager before booking, and study your agreement! Extra fees or might be applied to your invoice.

Additional considerations:

• Store the owner's information in your smartphone.
• At Check-in, note any issues with the property and immediately contact the host. Record all correspondence just in case a dispute arises.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a hot tub, intercom or washer/dryer. Contact your owner. They are there to help! A brief text message prevents quite a few difficulties.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like unpleasant vacationers bothering your peace. Use the golden rule for common sense. If they like you, locals might even recommend great beaches and places you would have never otherwise known about!
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Local residents can typically point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to get the best breakfast in town, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fine dining?
• Ensure you protect the property owner (and your stuff!) by locking the property while you are out, just like you would at home.
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before departing, walk through the rental to reconfirm you've collected all personal belongings. Make sure to check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden items. 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.
• Remember to leave feedback! Hosts rely on great reviews to inspire future bookings. They'll be grateful for your feedback. Alternatively, if something went wrong, other families will appreciate that you share your review and help them have the best future vacation. Remember to 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 remedy it.
