DESCRIPTION:
As you walk into the entryway you feel instantly at home. While both the formal dining area and living rooms are separate from the kitchen the space still feels open and inviting. The sky high ceilings of the living area offer handsome light throughout the day while the decor helps keep the feeling comfortable. The kitchen offers upgraded appliances and all of the cookware needed to create your favorite meals. If you include the breakfast nook and dining table seats you will have enough for a group of 12 but there are also seats along the bar.

The primary bedroom is just off the living room and comfortably offers a king bed and private bathroom. The bedroom is filled with light and space and the theme continues into the stately bath… there is a soaking tub, standing shower and a double vanity. Through the bathroom you will find a door to the laundry room with a full sized washer and dryer. Privacy isn’t an issue as the laundry has access from the common area of the home as well.

Heading up the winding staircase to the open balcony type hall you will comfortably find both of the other guest rooms both with Queen beds and private baths.

Down the stairwell from the kitchen area is where all of the fun can happen- there is another guest room with 2 twin beds and private bath as well as a recreation room with 2 twin/twin bunk beds. Also on this level you will be able to access the 2nd refrigerator, garage for the golf cart, and another entrance to the hot tub and grilling area.

The screened in and wrap around porches are purposely furnished with tables and rockers for guest use. They are all effortlessly accessible through the many doors throughout the main level of the home. The parking is ample as you have access to a circle driveway as well as one behind the home.

All of your beds are made prior to arrival with freshly laundered linens, including the comforters, and are included with a full week’s stay.
The location of this home is within the striking, private and gated community of Dolphin’s Ridge. The beach access is located at the split of Dolphin Ridge Road and Sandy Court which is where you will be able to leave your cart for a day at the beach. The walk to the beach is roughly less than a 5 min. walk as you are just around the corner from the access.

How to book the best vacation rental experience:

How to get the best rental value:

• In the New Bern area, The earlier your group can book a vacation rental, the better your selection will be. The most desirable vacation rentals are reserved early. Booking your vacation home up to 12 months before your vacation is recommended. Winter holidays are excellent times to search for and book your vacation home.
• Reserving a rental home in the Spring or Fall is a great way to save money on your rental home. Rental rates are lower, and you'll find a better selection of acceptable properties.
• Property managers sometimes offer discounts or promotional rates for veterans. Ask your host or property manager if special offers are available for your group before you book.
• Property management companies typically offer guests an option to purchase vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which normally costs between 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed days as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for additional information.
• Look for your local New Bern area magazine when you check-in. If your rental doesn't have one, you can find them at local shops and fuel stations. In addition to great articles, visitors guide magazines have offers and deals for local tours and attractions.

Narrow your Search:

• Select vacation week and max budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and the configuration your group requires. Oceanside Interior Home with Private Pool, Hot tub, Golf Cart, in Dolphin Ridge has 4 bedrooms and 6 bathrooms.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts is generally available online. If not, contact the property manager before reserving your home. Remember that most properties list the max. guest capacity, which usually includes sofa beds in living rooms. You will need to determine what is right for your group.
• If your group is vacationing with pets, you'll need to find a property that allows animals. Get details on breed, size, and type requirements. Some hosts charge additional pet fees.
• Are you looking for unique amenities? Most rental websites include search filters for amenities. Filtering by amenity will allow you to quickly find the perfect rental home.
• Suitable accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for persons with a disability. Confirm all required amenities are available and included before reserving a rental.

Tips to have a smooth stay:

• Add the host's phone number to your smartphone. Take a copy of check in/check out procedures.
• Property managers are great sources of help! Feel free to ask questions during your stay.
• Ensure you protect the owner (and your things!) by keeping the rental locked up when you are away, just like you would back home.
• During arrival, document any damages to the rental property and immediately contact the host. Keep records of all correspondence in case a dispute arises.
• Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking policies can make a stay more pleasurable. Be a good neighbor. You'll enhance your chance to make local friends, and resident neighbors are usually an incredible resource to find the best local beaches and restaurants.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Neighbors can often help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to go for the best drinks, have a great night out, or the best spots for BBQ?
• Double-check the rental property to confirm that you've packed all of your family's items on check-out day. Re-check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden treasure. Clean out the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Please make sure to walk through the property a final time and look for damage. We recommend inspecting the property with the host whenever you can. If the host is not available, take video and pictures of the rental to record its condition at check-out.
• Did your group have a terrific vacation? Most rental websites make it easy for travelers to provide feedback. If your rental and/or property management company was wonderful, they would love to hear about it. If anything was imperfect and they failed to address it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make it a point as part of your comments.
