Make yourself at home sweet home at our striking home in the peaceful Dolphin Ridge neighborhood of Emerald Isle. Our ocean-side three bedroom, two and a half bath home is just a three-min. walk to 25 miles of pristine beaches. Not up for the walk? Grab our golf cart and head to the private beach access. After a handsome day at the beach, rinse off in our warm outdoor shower, and head to the front or back porch for a mojito. You can also cool off in our 9x13 private salt water plunge pool. Then grab the bicycles and ride the new 11 mile bicycle path to dozens of eateries, bars, for a hike just up the road in Emerald Woods, to the grocery store, ice cream shop and stores. Once you park on you first day here you wont have to crank that engine again. Everything you need is close by. We rent our home Sunday to Sunday. Due to allergies, we are unable to host any animals.

Strategies to get the perfect Crystal Coast vacation property experience:

Sticking to your spending budget:

• Reserve your vacation rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules usually become available twelve months in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many families book their Summer vacations during Winter holiday gatherings. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Reserve your Crystal Coast vacation in the Fall or Spring shoulder seasons to enjoy warm weather while saving money and avoiding crowded roads, restaurants, and activities.
• Some hosts offer promotional rates for active duty military and veterans. It's always a good idea to check with your host or property manager to see if special offers are available for your family.
• Property management companies frequently offer guests an option to add vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed days as a result of medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for details.
• Often, management companies supply Crystal Coast area visitor guides which often include special deals, either offered independently by local businesses, or through a relationship with the rental management company and the business itself. You can also find Crystal Coast visitors guide and coupon books at local gas stations and shopping centers.

Narrow your rental Search:

• Select a group leader, select your vacation dates, and select a spending budget.
• Decide how many beds and what type of bedroom configuration your group requires. Surfari, beautiful home on the Crystal Coast has 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms.
• Precise information regarding bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is almost always available on booking pages. Otherwise, reach out to the host before booking the property. Note that most properties list the max. guest capacity, which typically includes pull-out couches. You will need to work out what is best for your trip.
• Some rentals allow pets, and others do not. Acceptable types of pet, size and breeds may be restricted, and additional charges may apply. Ask the property management company about your furry family members before booking.
• Visiting for a specific attraction or event? If so, use a map search to find nearby rentals.
• Appropriate accessibility can make or break a vacation for guests that require the use of a wheelchair. .

Know before you go:

• Put the host's contact information in your smartphone.
• Hosts are there to help! Feel free to ask questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Ensure you protect the owner (and your stuff!) by keeping the rental locked up when you are out, just like you would back home.
• Document any damages to the rental upon arrival, and immediately contact the host. We especially recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain built-in time stamps that can be useful if there is a dispute.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like disrespectful visitors bothering your quiet neighborhood. Use the golden rule for common sense. If they like you, locals might even recommend great beaches and attractions you would've not otherwise known about!
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Residents can often help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to find the best bike paths, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for bird watching?
• Just prior to departing, take a final walk-through to confirm you didn't forget anything. Check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden treasure. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Document the condition of the property at check-out. We recommend taking a video during your final walk-through.
• Did your group have a terrific vacation? Most rental management companies make it easy for clients to provide comments. If your rental and/or host was fantastic, they would love to hear about it. If anything was imperfect and they failed to fix it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make it a point as part of your review.
