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 striking 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.

Adore 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).

Rental home tips and tricks:

Money saving strategies:

• Summertime is high season in the Currituck area. Reserve your Currituck vacation home in Fall or Spring to get the benefit of beautiful weather while saving money and avoiding crowds.
• In the Currituck area, The earlier your group can book a vacation home, the better your selection will be. The best rental homes are reserved very early. Reserving your vacation home 6-12 months before your vacation dates is recommended. Holiday gatherings are excellent times to plan and reserve your rental home.
• Property management companies sometimes offer special rates for active duty military and veterans. Make sure to check with your host or property manager to see if rate reductions are available for your group.
• Property management companies frequently offer renters an option to add trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which normally will cost anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any days missed as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for details.
• Often, management companies and vacation rental houses supply Currituck area visitors guides which include special offers, either offered independently by local companies, or by way of a partnership between the management company and the business itself. You can also find Currituck area magazine and coupon books at local gas stations and shopping centers.

Selecting the perfect rental home in Corolla:

• First, have your family commit to the best dates and a spending budget.

• Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts & types is commonly accessible on booking websites. If they are not listed, contact the property manager before reserving the property. Note that most property listings specify maximum guest capacity, which usually includes pull out couches in living rooms.
• Is your group looking for special amenities? Most rental websites include amenity lists and search filters. Use these to your advantage to find the perfect rental home.
• Proper accessibility can make or break a vacation for persons with disabilities. Confirm all required amenities are included before reserving a rental.
• Some rentals allow pets, but others don't. Acceptable types of pet, weight and breeds may be restricted, and added fees may apply. Ask the owner about allowable pet guidelines before booking.

More considerations for your visit:

• Review arrival and departure procedures before traveling. Take a printed copy, and add a note with the instructions to your smartphone.
• Upon check-in, make note of any damages to the property and immediately alert the host. Record all coorespondence.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a hot tub, stereo or thermostat. Contact your property manager. They are there to help! A brief phone call prevents quite a few problems.
• Respect the neighborhood. Frequently, adjacent homes are occupied by permanent residents. Respecting quiet hours and parking rules reduces conflict and allows everyone to enjoy their day.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Local residents can usually help. Who better to ask where to see a beautiful sunrise or sunset, have a great night out, or the best spots for crabbing?
• Lock your rental property while you are gone! Don't let burglars ruin your holiday.
• Just before checking out, complete a walk-through to confirm you did not forget anything. Remember to check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden items. Clean out the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Inspect the property a final time and keep an eye out for any damage. We suggest inspecting the property with the property manager whenever possible. If the manager isn't available, take video of the property to record its condition.
• Did your family have a wonderful time? Most rental management companies make it easy for vacationers to provide comments. If your property and/or property manager was fantastic, they always love to hear your praise. If anything was inoperable and they failed to correct it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make a note as part of your review.
