About this Property

The outdoor space spans the entire width of the unit, accepting access from the living room as well as a private entrance to the master bedroom. You will appreciate oceanfront vistas and hear the waves crashing on the shore from your roomy private outdoor space or from the beach inspired open-concept living room and kitchen. From the outdoor space take a very brief walk (30 paces Matey!) along a wooden walkway to the beach. The pool is located next to the unit so you can watch your children play and call them in for dinner without ever leaving your back outdoor space.

After you gather for libations at the gazebo watching the sunset, relax in the oceanfront master suite complete with it's own adjoining bathroom or in one of the other two bedrooms both with their own bathrooms. The condo also includes a sleeper couch ensuring everybody has sufficient space to spread out and accommodates 8 people restfully.

The unit is thoroughly outfitted to ensure your happiness and reduce your need to over pack. Brand new items include coffee maker (not Keurig), blender, 4 slice toaster, cookware, etc. There is also a bar area with drink refrigerator, a full size washer and dryer and outdoor space furnishings. Linens are included with your rental (sheets and towels) as well as a pack-n-play, booster seat, high chair, games and puzzles. We also have a few beach chairs, umbrella, pool noodles, and floats for your appreciation. So all you have to bring is your bathing suit!

Before you start to book "Beautiful First Floor Oceanfront Condo Kitchen Renovated 2020", read through our short list of considerations.

Start Your Search Early

Morehead City rentals start booking very early. To find the best selection, begin your planning and search Six-Twelve months before a trip. Holiday reunions can be a popular time for groups to plan their Summer holiday escapes..

Select a Community and Date

Begin by deciding which specific area of Morehead City you want to explore, and the choose travel dates.

Decide on a Size

Keep a list of attendees. How many beds and bedrooms will you need? Try to remember that a lot of vacation rentals advertise maximum guest capacity, which oftentimes includes sofa beds in the family room. You'll need to determine what is acceptable for your family. Generally rental home listings will describe each one of the unit's specific bedrooms and mattress sizes.

Determine Your Budget

Many rentals are marketed with a cost range. Determine the cost for your selected stay. It could be at the high end of the range. Make sure to get cost-sharing commitments from friends and family prior to reserving a pricey vacation property. Usually, one person in the group will be liable for making the complete reservation and getting each family member's contribution.

Create a list of "Wishes" and "Needs"

What home features is the family trying to find? Is a pool mandatory?Are you looking for a rental home with patio kitchen? Would you like to be far from the crowds, or close to a city setting? Are linens included with the rental agreement, or do you need to bring your own? Create a list of priority amenities to guide narrow your search.

Accessibility and Special Things to consider

Do certain members of your crew have specific needs? Make sure you remember and ask about wheelchair entry, pool lifts and specialized equipment requirements..

Paws-Friendly, Please

Don't forget to include your best friend! Pet guidelines are different at each rental. Study descriptions thoroughly. Read your contract very carefully! Additional fees or deposits may be applied to your contract. Ask questions *well before* you reserve!

Searching the Internet

As soon as the location, travel dates and family members are decided, search multiple resources to find the best rental selection. Besides Homeaway, VRBO and Tripadvisor, we recommend searching Google for "Morehead City local rental homes" for local rental home management companies. Besides offering exclusive properties, local agencies provide exceptional service..

Negotiate

Re-read the description to make sure the property has everything required. If something is missing, the home management company may know of similar properties that fit your style and budget..

Although not true for all rental properties, many property owners and property managers will make a deal on rates. If they are hesitant to budge on a peak-season week, try getting an extra night. Off-peak weeks are likely to be negotiable more often than peak-season..

Read the Agreement

Read through the full agreement and be sure you are aware who is liable for:

• Utility bills
• Internet
• Telephone service
• Hot Tub Heating
• Cable and pay-per-view TV

Cancellation policies are different with each property. You'll likely be offered trip insurance. Trip insurance, which generally costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base rental home price, provides travellers with reimbursement of their vacation costs (and subsequent rental home costs) for any days missed due to personal hospital emergencies or weather, as well as hurricane evacuation expenses, such as a unanticipated motel stay or additional gas.

Complete the Booking

Once you feel you've identified "the one", begin the booking process. Bear in mind that most rental agreements will require a substantial rental down payment and/or security deposit to protect the home owner.

Where to Get Help

Don't forget to get the property manager's contact telephone number and entry/exit procedures for your rental. We suggest storing the contact's details in your cell phone and wallet.

Congratulations on booking your vacation rental! You're on the way to a fantastic vacation!

During your Stay

• To assure no damages are linked to your stay, make a record of any trouble spots of the property. We also recommend promptly phoning the rental home manager with a report of any damages, together with your request for any fixes.
• If you have any ambiguity about parking, policies of the house, property access, pool functions, etc... we suggest you ask the rental home manager promptly. A quick phone call prevents many headaches.
• Please remember to respect your neighbors. Residents probably live within earshot. Remember the golden rule and treat others the same way you'd like to be treated by visitors next to your primary residence.
• Ask a local. Locals may point you in the right direction.
• Be sure to protect the property owner (and your stuff!) by keeping the rental locked up when you are away, just like you would in your own home.

At the end of your stay

• Make sure that you've packed everything. Check drawers, bath cupboards and cabinets.
• Make a point to walk through the rental home one last time and look for property damage. We suggest walking through with the rental manager wherever possible (this isn't always the case).. If the property owner is not available, make certain to take photos of the property to record its condition.
• Did you have a blast? Most property management companies and rental home sites permit travellers to offer comments. If the rental home and/or property manager was top-notch, they'll appreciate your praise. If anything went wrong, we recommend being understanding but sincere about your stay. Top property owners and managers will try very hard to rectify the problem.
