SUMMER SAVINGS - Semi-Oceanfront Dog Friendly Home w/ Nearby Beach Access, Grill

SEMI-OCEANFRONT Waves – Mac Oca Ct. – Making unforgettable vacation memories is easy to do at MAKIN’ WAVES. This four-bedroom/two- and two-half-bath home provides a relaxing counterpoint to the active endeavors of a Hatteras Island vacation. Sitting just one block from the oceanfront, this is a perfect family house, offering easy beach access and sunrise to sunset views from a large deck.

Rinse off the salt and sand in the outdoor shower while the fisherman prepares their catch on the fish cleaning station before lighting up the charcoal grill. Through the dry entry under the home, you will find the first of the home’s four bedrooms. Featuring a pyramid bunk and half bath, this level is perfect for those who are late risers. Away from the bustle of upstairs, you can enjoy an entire floor to yourself. On the second level, a second pyramid bunk room and two queen bedrooms, which share a Jack-and-Jill bath, provide ample places to sleep between days in the sun. All bedrooms feature Smart TVs.

The third level features an open floor plan where sunrises will stream through the ocean facing windows, filling the space with beautiful morning light. New great room furnishings, including a queen sofa bed, offer an inviting spot to watch the Smart TV or simply fixate on the stunning ocean views across the street. Park yourself at the kitchen counter to enjoy your morning cup of coffee or in one of eight chairs at dinner time for a family feast. Wind down the day on the deck as the sun sinks below the sound.

There’s no need to leave your family pups behind; two dogs up to 40 pounds are welcome, keeping your whole family together. Start making plans to book MAKIN’ WAVES for the vacation you’ve been waiting for.

Disliked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication
BEWARE. We had to leave this rental 3 days early because my 2 year old son was bitten by bed bugs and the bites became infected. I had to take him to a local urgent care where he was put on 2 antibiotics. Pest control met us at the house shortly after and confirmed that in fact the house did have bed bugs! My husband also found one crawling on the couch. Even after bringing this evidence to Surf and Sound they shrugged it off as if it was nothing. I’ve reached out since our travels home and still haven’t heard anything. Do not book this home, or with surf and sound. And to add, we checked into this home late because of hurricane Erin. I reached out multiple times leading up to our departure date for a refund because I purchased the travelers insurance that was offered with booking and they wouldn’t budge. They acted as if we should have been waiting on the other side of the bridge for the evacuation notice to be lifted.
