New to the rental market. Everybody Wants Sun is a spacious oceanfront home with gorgeous views in Salvo, NC which is part of the tri-villages on Hatteras Island in the true Outer Banks. This home is well appointed and cared for by its owners who will handle your reservation with care. We will strive to make your stay unforgettable, and you will not be a faceless number at one of the large property management companies that frequently become difficult to reach when you need them.
Linens and towels are provided at no cost. We will provide sheets for all beds and the beds will be made except for the top bunk and trundle bed in which case, sheets are provided. We also provide some items to start your vacation like toilet paper, paper towels, dish towels, sponge, bath/body soaps and a starter pack of dish detergent, laundry detergent, dish soap, trash bags,
coffee and filters. We ask that you bring your own beach towels and to not use our bath towels at the beach.
Treat yourself to a fabulous beach vacation with 5 roomy bedrooms and 3 full baths and 2 half baths, one of which is outside by the pool! Why walk back into the cold air conditioning in your wet swimsuit when you can stroll to the half bath right near the pool area in comfort. Speaking of comfort, all mattresses were recently purchased and will allow you a great night’s sleep after a day of sun and surf. Views from the large windows and decks on the back of the house feature the stunning sand dunes, morning sunrise and beautiful ocean that will beckon you to stroll, fish or swim. You can even explore the 19th century shipwreck that is not too far from your entrance to the wide expansive beach or spot the dolphins at play. The views from the side decks and the front of the home showcase the stunning sunsets that the Outer Banks are famous for as well as glimpses of the Pamlico Sound which during the spring/summer/fall will display a colorful scene of kite surfers and hydro foilers in the sky.
You can partake in many of the numerous world-renowned water sports from the providers here in the area. The surfing here is also one of the best spots on the entire east coast. Take a lesson if you want to learn to kite board, hydrofoil or surf or rent all the equipment you need from the well-respected providers.
Fishing is also one of the most sought-after past times here on the Outer Banks and we have a fish cleaning table with water available to assist you with your catch.
After a day on the beach, refresh with a shower (hot or cold) in our outdoor enclosed shower on our pool deck. Enjoy the crystal-clear pool waters and relax in several of the seated areas inside the pool. Lounge under an umbrella while your beverage chills in our deck cooler or sunbathe on one of the chaise lounge chairs.
For meal times, our well-appointed kitchen features many amenities including granite counters, an espresso machine, coffee maker, blender, food processor, two dishwashers (a must for large gatherings!), beverage fridge (so all your libations will be cool and refreshing) and a free standing under the counter ice machine that will keep your drinks cold and your coolers filled during a hot day on the beach. There is a large dining table for everyone to be able to enjoy mealtimes together as well as a few counter seats at the granite counter island.
Our comfortable living room area features a small seating area as well as a large seating area with several couches/love seats and a brand new 65" smart television. All bedrooms feature their own television (Roku) as well for more private viewing. Our loft area features a television (Roku) and a table for games, puzzles, and cards. It is also a great spot for kids to play and watch TV while adults relax in the living room. The loft is also a great location if you need to work. Sometimes we must while on vacation but here at Everybody Wants Sun you can do so while gazing out at the stunning ocean views from the third floor. Don't worry, the house features high speed WIFI and it even reaches the decks and pool area.
There are three levels of wrap around decks and three out of the four bedrooms on the first floor have sliding door access to these outdoor spaces which feature lots of seating and relaxing locations. The main floor (2nd) has huge windows and several sliding doors that open to the large wrap around deck with seating and a tall table that is perfect to sit at while you enjoy your morning coffee or evening cocktail. Even while in the kitchen, you can look out at the gorgeous dunes and sea. The top deck (3rd floor) off the loft has the most spectacular views East and West and is a great spot to watch those amazing sunrises and sunsets with several tall chairs for you to relax on.
Once the sun goes down, enjoy a fire in the fire pit while you listen to the waves crashing on the shore and the gorgeous starry sky above you with very little light pollution so you can see for miles. We frequently see shooting stars and the Milky Way is visible on a clear night.
There is parking for 5 cars, with some covered parking, as well as beach chairs and other beach amenities storage and private access to the 2-minute stroll through the dunes to the beach front.
