Planning a trip to the Outer Banks with another family? Make vacation memories together while still having your own separate retreats when you reserve White Dolphin. This Buck Island duplex features identical layouts on either side, each with its own living area, full kitchen, rec room and four bedrooms for a total of eight bedrooms under one roof! The top and bottom levels include interior access to the other side, making it painless to share spaces when you want to. Finest of all, you'll only be a short walk to the beach (there's also complimentary oceanfront parking) as well as a variety of resort-style amenities available exclusively to Buck Island guests.

Cooking and clean-up will be a breeze since you'll have TWO KITCHENS - twice the counterspace, twice the appliances, twice the convenience! Both open-concept living areas are located on the top level and feature vaulted ceilings and a wet bar. Two dining areas plus bar seating at both kitchens can accommodate the entire group at mealtime. Just outside, the sun decks on either side are BOTH equipped with a hot tub. In the evenings, head downstairs to shoot some pool in the rec room. The garage on the other side includes a poker table and foosball table for additional indoor entertainment options.

White Dolphin is conveniently located in the gated community of Buck Island, just steps from the resort's Olympic-size outdoor swimming pool, kiddie pool, tennis court, basketball court and playground. This fantastic location also means you'll be just a short walk over to the eateries, grocery stores and specialty food markets in Monteray Plaza. Timbuck II Shopping Village is located just across Ocean Trail, where you'll find a variety of stores, additional dining options and family-friendly recreational activities.

Appreciate the location and amenities of White Dolphin but don't need rather as much space? Each side is available to rent separately as a four-bedroom home and locked off from the adjoining unit (see BU18L or BU18R).

Animals allowed. No smoking/vaping. Fireplace not available for guest use.

Our top Rental home tips and tricks:

Find your perfect vacation home:

The sooner your group can reserve a vacation home, the easier your search will be. The most desirable rental homes are reserved very early. Booking your rental home up to 12 months before your vacation is recommended. Holiday gatherings are excellent times to search for and book your vacation home.
Summer months are the most expensive season in coastal NC. To find the most suitable rental within budget, we suggest booking in Spring or Fall. You'll enjoy lower rental rates, greater selection, beautiful weather and the absence of large crowds at your favorite Currituck restaurants and activities.
Owners sometimes offer promotional rates for veterans. Remember to ask your host or property manager if discounts are available for your group.
Property managers usually offer their guests an option to purchase trip insurance. Trip insurance, which costs 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed time as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance can be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for program terms and fees.
Find a copy of your local Currituck visitors guide magazine when you check-in. If your rental property doesn't have one, you can find them at local grocery stores and visitor centers. In addition to great local information, visitor guides have coupons for nearby restaurants, attractions, and tours.

Selecting and booking your prefect Currituck rental home:

Select a group lead, select your vacation dates, and select a maximum budget.
Pool Access has 8 bedrooms and 8 bathrooms.
Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is regularly accessible on booking pages. If not, email or call the property owner before you reserve the rental. Note that most property listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which usually includes pull-out couches and bunk beds. You will need to determine what is optimal for your vacation family.
Some rentals allow pets, but others do not. Acceptable types of dog or cat, size and breeds may be restricted, and added fees may apply. Ask the host about pets before booking.
Are you looking for specific amenities? Most websites include search filters with amenity lists. Filtering by amenity will allow you to quickly find the perfect rental.
Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for persons with disabilities. Confirm all necessary amenities are available and included before reserving a rental.

Advice for a wonderful stay:

Review check in & check out procedures before traveling. Add a note with the directions to your phone, and take a printed copy.
Hosts are available to help! Don't be shy to ask any questions during your stay.
Lock your vacation home while you're out. Protect the owner's property and your things!
Record any issues with the rental at check in, and immediately send them to the owner. We specifically recommend e-mails and text messages, as they usually contain built-in time stamps that can be beneficial if there is a dispute.
Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like disagreeable visitors bothering your peace. Employ the golden rule for best judgement. Happy residents may even recommend great local food and attractions you would have never otherwise known about!
Don't forget to... Ask a local! Locals can often point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to take kids for a treat, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fishing?
Just prior to departing, take a walk-through to confirm you didn't forget anything. Re-check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden belongings. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
Inspect the property a final time and look for any damage. We recommend walking through with the host whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the host is not available, ensure that you take pictures of the property to record its condition at check-out.
Did your group have a fantastic stay? Many rental management companies make it easy for customers to provide reviews. If your rental property and/or property management company was terrific, they would love to hear it. If anything was imperfect and they failed to fix it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make it a point as part of your feedback.
