DESCRIPTION:
Makin' Waves is a excellent home that has a classic, opulent feel throughout the entire 3 floors of cavernous gathering spaces and comfortably appointed bedrooms. The exterior also has much to offer, with multi-level covered and uncovered decks on the front and back side all adorned with furnishings for calming and sunbathing. Make watching the sound-side sunset a ritual from the porch swing in the front, and savor vistas of the ocean, as well as the family making memories in the private pool, from the back.
Coming in from the pool deck, there is a ground-level living room, offering a roomy, recreational area to take a break from the sun. There is a huge sectional couch that offers a queen sleeper, entertainment center, ping pong table, card table, and a kitchenette, complete with an ice maker and wine refrigerator. In addition to the outdoor shower on the pool deck, there is a full-sized bath on this level, with an entrance from both the pool deck and just off the kitchenette. This floor includes a laundry room and is where the elevator begins its service.
The second floor can also be known as the bedroom floor. Here you will find a spacious King Suite that has a soaking tub, glass surround shower, and double sinks. There are also 2 bedrooms both with a Queen Bed and private baths. The additional bedroom on this floor is one for the kiddos to appreciate. This bedroom has a twin/twin bunk as well as a full/full bunk bed and uses the bathroom just across the hallway.
As you enter the third floor, be prepared to feel at home. This enormous open floor plan is where you will find the kitchen, dining area, and living room, as well as a home office. For those working remotely, this room is equipped with a sizable sitting desk and a wireless printer. The Master Bedroom fit for a King is on this level as well. The bedroom is furnished with a King Bed, TV filled armoire, and a unique bespoke bathroom complete with soaking tub, standing shower, and separate vanities.
Let leaving something at home be the least of your worries-the kitchen is complete with everything you will need including a Keurig, Standard Coffee Maker, and deluxe air fryer. For those of you with little ones, you'll find a highchair and pack-n-play is available for your convenience. The entertainment centers are also complete with Roku systems for family movie nights!
Your four-legged appreciated one is also invited to join in on your vacation! This home can be pet friendly with a $150 pet fee/per dog (max. of 2) and if they are under 25 pounds.

How to find the best rental experience:

Getting the best rental home value:

• Booking your Morehead City vacation home in Fall or Spring is one of our best tips for saving money on your vacation home. Rental rates are lower, and you'll find a better selection of suitable properties.
• The sooner you can reserve a vacation home, the easier your search will be. The most desirable properties are booked very early. Reserving your rental property 6-12 months before your travel dates is recommended. Holiday gatherings are excellent times to plan and reserve your vacation rental.
• Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property manager or host whether your group qualifies for a special rate.
• Property management companies usually offer their guests an option to add vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which will generally cost 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed days as a result of medical-related issues or weather, as well as ensuing additional evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel stay or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance can be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for details.
• Find a copy of your local Morehead City visitors guide magazine when you arrive at the rental property. If your rental home doesn't have one, you can find them at local shops and fuel stations. In addition to great articles, travel guides have discounts for nearby tours, shops, and attractions.

Make a plan and pick your Morehead City rental home:

• To start, have your family select the best dates and a budget.
• Decide how many bedrooms and the bed configuration your group needs. Oceanview with elevator, private pool, golf cart, in Dolphin Ridge community has 6 bedrooms and 8 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our Morehead City vacation rental search.
• Specific details about bedrooms and bed types is often available online. If not, call the property owner before reserving your home. Note that most property listings specify the max. guest capacity, which usually includes pull-out couches and bunk beds. You will need to determine what is right for your trip.
• Are you visiting for a single attraction? If so, use a map search to find nearby properties.
• Appropriate accessibility can make or break a vacation for persons with disabilities. .
• Some properties allow pets, but some do not. Allowable types of dog or cat, size and breeds may be restricted, and additional fees may apply. Ask the property manager about your furry family members before booking.

Some things to know before you go:

• Get the owner's contact number and entry/exit procedures for your rental.
• To ensure that no damages are linked to your visit, make a record of any problem areas upon check in. E-mail the rental manager immediately to record any issues. If there is a dispute, having a record of concerns and contact attempts will be useful.
• Hosts are available to help! Don't be shy to ask any questions during your stay.
• Be respectful. Often times, adjacent homes are filled by local residents. Respecting late-night noise limits and parking policies reduces conflict and allows everyone to enjoy their day.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Locals can usually help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to take kids for a treat, have a great night out, or the best spots for fishing?
• Protect the rental owner (and your things!) by keeping the rental locked up while you are out, just like you would at home.
• Upon check-out, take a final walk-through to make sure you did not leave anything behind. Make sure to check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden treasure. Clean out the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Inspect the property a final time and scan for any damage. We suggest inspecting the property with the host whenever you can. If the property manager isn't available, take pictures of the rental to record its condition.
• After your trip, leave a review! Property managers rely on great feedback to drive more reservations. They'll be thankful for your review. Alternatively, if something wasn't as described, other families will be thankful you shared your review and help them have the best future vacation. Please be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the host had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded expeditiously to solve it.
