Ocean View, Single Family Home with Elevator. Bed Configuration: 1 King, 3 Queens.
The secret to happiness is the air we breathe, the people with whom we spend our lives, and where we choose to lay our heads — especially when it comes to a fairy tale vacation! It’s a little-known fact that at the coast— the air is fresher, life is sweeter, and friends will flock to our side to appreciate the beauty and benefits of the sea.

At “Once Upon a Tide,” you can spend your time wisely with your nearest and dearest and soak in the joys of the shore! This three-story beach home is a vision of modern design, complete with clean lines and a cool neutral color palette that makes for a carefree mood that feels like summer all year long!

The open layout lends itself well to flow and function, making celebrating— no matter the occasion— a delight to experience. The handsome gourmet kitchen with seats at the bar is an invitation to gather together and just be with the group or to sit solo and savor the tranquility and peaceful. Cavernous sunshiney rooms, luxe details and a sophisticated style all set the tone for the ideal holiday and a home that feels like your home away from home.

There is plenty of room to accommodate with three bedrooms to choose from with a king or queen bed selection; it’s simple to have friends and family members all stay for the good cheer! Each bedroom has its own bath, whether a walk-in shower is what you need or a tub to soak in is more your style.

Spend your days searching for shells and listening to the sounds of the surf or cast a line right from the sand to catch a bite— for fun or your next meal! Options for activities are countless from this address —from sipping morning coffee on the porch to hosting dinner from the grille to heading out for drinks and a charming time for two— the world is your oyster when you stay on the beach!

Our top Rental booking tips and tricks:

Sticking to your rental home budget:

  • Reserve your rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules generally open a year in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many families book their Summer vacation rentals during Winter holiday get-togethers. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
  • June, July, and August are the most expensive months in Atlantic Beach. To book the largest vacation home for your budget, we suggest booking in the Spring or Fall. You'll benefit from lower rental rates, better selection, warm weather and the absence of large crowds at the beach and popular Morehead City attractions. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, or to reserve an oceanfront rental that would otherwise be unavailable during the high season.
  • Some owners offer discounts for active duty military and veterans. Remember to ask your host or property manager if discounts are available for your group before you book.
  • Booking websites often offer their guests an option to purchase vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which costs 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed trip time as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather, as well as evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for more information.
  • Many rental management companies and vacation rental houses supply Morehead City area visitors guides which include money-saving deals, either offered independently by local businesses, or through a partnership between the rental management company and the business itself. You can also find visitors guide and coupon books at local gas stations and shopping centers.

How to choose the best rental in the Morehead City area:

  • Select a designated group leader, select your dates, and select a spending budget.
  • Decide how many bedrooms and the bed configuration your family needs. Oceanside Home with Elevator in Atlantic Beach, NC! (Once Upon a Tide) has 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms.
  • Specific details about bedrooms and bed counts is usually accessible on booking pages. If you don't see them listed, contact the property manager before reserving your rental. Note that most properties list maximum guest capacity, which usually includes sofa beds in living rooms.
  • Do your family pets travel with you? Many vacation homes allow animals, but guidelines and restrictions apply. Type of pet, size and breeds may be limited. Ask your host before booking, and study your rental agreement! Pet fees or may be applied to your agreement.
  • If there's a certain Morehead City destination you love, browse rentals that are either close by, or those that cater to your needs.
  • Appropriate accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for persons with disabilities. .

Tips to have a terrific stay:

  • Be sure you get the owner's contact number and arrival/departure procedures for your rental. We recommend storing the manager's contact information in your smartphone.
  • Hosts are there to help! Feel free to ask any questions before, during, or after your stay.
  • Protect the rental owner (and your stuff!) by keeping the rental locked up while you are away, just like you would back home.
  • To make certain no damages are linked to your visit, inspect the property for any problem areas during check in. Call the host right away to document any damages. If there is a dispute about legal responsibility later, having the recorded problems and contact attempts will be helpful.
  • Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like unpleasant visitors bothering your life at home. Apply the golden rule for common sense. If they like you, locals might even recommend great local food and scenic spots you would have not otherwise known!
  • Don't forget to... Ask a local! Residents can frequently help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to see a beautiful sunrise or sunset, have a great night out, or the best spots for BBQ?
  • At departure, take a final walk-through to make sure you haven't forget anything. Make sure 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 walking through with the property manager whenever you can. If the manager is not available, ensure that you take photos of the property to record its condition.
  • After your trip, leave a review! Property owners rely on good reviews to stimulate more reservations. They'll be grateful for your feedback. Alternatively, if something went awry, other vacationers will be thankful you shared your review find their best vacation rental. Please be fair with your feedback If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the manager had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded reasonably to remedy it.
