Just to mention a couple titles from the review page, "Totally striking," "handsome home for a sizable family," "Ideal getaway," "Beautiful beach home in a Fun location." I think you will find our beach home to be your home away from home and that's our goal! In fact one renter called it "home away from home!"
This is a Substantial, Striking, 6 bedroom, and 5 bathrooms on the sound. The 4th floor sleeps 4 and has a enormous sitting room with a HUGE TV--the kids will never leave! The 3rd floor has 3 bedrooms including the king master with high ceilings and striking vistas. The second floor has one bedroom and the rest is living space. The family room is open to the kitchen and a huge eating area with great sound vistas and a deck right off this space. The home will effortlessly handle 12 people. We newly added a 4/5 person hot tub. The family room has a fireplace for colder weather. One guest commented "the home was definitely pretty. The rooms were cavernous and well lit. It comfortably accommodated my family of 10+."
This Sound View home looks straight at Morehead City. According to one guest, "we had everything we needed for making meals." Wake up in the Master bedroom and look right out into the sound--great way to start your day. You won't want to leave.. Walking to Beach, Shopping, eateries & Bars. Our community is called The Cottages at Bay Ridge and located between Atlantic Stations Shopping Center and the Atlantic Beach Post Office, our coastal community offers all the amenities and privacy that waterfront living deserves! According to a guest, "great home in a great neighborhood." We are a sound front community with great access to fishing, crabbing, kayaking and bird watching. We have a impressive gradual entry pool. This is a fabulous conveniences with elevated viewing area and plenty of shade for when it gets too hot in the sun. There is a half mile elevated wooden boardwalk which leads to the covered gazebo on our private island in the sound. This is great for picnics and fishing and watching the most beautiful sunrises and sunsets. Many guests commented that the host was effortlessly accessible, accommodating and striking! I think anyone would agree when renting you want fast answers and we will give you that! And one final comment from a renter--"beyond all expectations!"

Finding the best Atlantic Beach vacation rental experience:

How to get the best rental value:

• Book your vacation rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules generally open 12 months in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many families book their Summer vacation rentals during holiday get-togethers. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• To get the most suitable rental within budget, we recommend reserving in the Fall or Spring. You'll enjoy lower rental rates, greater selection, gorgeous weather and the absence of large crowds at the beach and popular attractions. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, or to book an oceanfront rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during the Summer. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a New Bern vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation near the ocean? Christmas, Thanksgiving, and New Years Eve are great times to gather with friends and family at the beach.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective host whether your vacationing group qualifies for a special rate.
• Property managers frequently offer customers an option to obtain vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed vacation time as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for program terms and fees.
• Often, management companies and vacation rental houses supply New Bern area visitor guides which often include money-saving offers, either offered independently by local businesses, or through a relationship with the management company and the business itself. You can also find New Bern visitors guide magazine and coupon books at local shops and grocery stores.

Planning and choosing the perfectvacation home:

• Start by selecting your trip dates and a max budget.
• Decide how many bedrooms and the configuration your group requires. On the Sound 6BR 4.5BA home! Great for large families, 2 living spaces. Hot tub! has 6 bedrooms and 6 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our vacation rental search.
• Specific information regarding bedrooms and bed counts is commonly available on booking websites. Otherwise, email or call the property owner before booking the vacation property. Note that most listings specify the max. guest capacity, which oftentimes includes pull-out couches. You'll need to determine what configuration is suitable for your group.
• Remember to include your furry companions! Many vacation homes allow animals, but guidelines and restrictions apply. Allowable pet type, breed, and size are often limited. Ask your host before booking, and study your agreement! Additional pet fees or charges could be applied to your invoice.
• If there's a particular New Bern destination you crave, look for homes that are either close by, or those that cater to your needs.
• Proper accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for guests that require the use of a wheelchair. Confirm all required amenities are included before booking

During your stay:

• Put the manager's contact information in your smartphone and wallet.
• Hosts are available to help! Feel free to ask any questions during your stay.
• Keep the property locked while you are out! Don't let crooks spoil your holiday.
• Document any issues with the rental upon arrival, and immediately e-mail them to the property manager. We especially recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain built-in time stamps that are very helpful if a dispute arises.
• Respect your neighbors. Frequently, nearby homes are filled by permanent residents. Respecting late-night noise limits and parking regulations reduces conflict and allows everyone to enjoy their day.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Local residents can frequently help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to launch your kayaks, have a great night out, or the best spots for bird watching?
• Upon check-out, complete a final walk-through to make sure you have not forget any personal items. Check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden items. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Document the condition of the property at check-out. We recommend taking a video during your final walk-through.
• After your trip, leave feedback! Property managers rely on great reviews to propel future bookings. They'll be much obliged for your review. Alternatively, if something wasn't right, other vacationers will appreciate that you share your experience and help them have the best future vacation. Remember to be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the property manager had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded reasonably to fix it.
