When you're ready to hit the sand, the nearest public beach access (White St.) is just a 500-ft walk away making it easier than ever to spend the day splashing in the waves!

As you pull in, a single-lane driveway provides ample parking space. An outdoor shower makes it simple to rinse off the sand after a day at the beach. Head upstairs to the sun deck to find numerous Adirondack chairs to kick back in and soak up the ocean breeze while taking in the impressive blue Atlantic vistas! You'll also find an outdoor table on the sun deck, making dining al fresco or evening stargazing fun & convenient.

The main level of this bungalow features an open floorplan with a quirky layout. When you walk through the front door you will be greeted by the bright and cheery living area and kitchen.

Whipping up a meal while you're in town is painless thanks to the well-outfitted kitchen.

Located across from the dining area is where you will find the first of the three bedrooms. This room contains a comfortable queen bed with your own TV, so no more arguing over what to watch! You'll find a full hallway bathroom with a shower/tub combo right beside this bedroom. Head down the hallway and you will find a huge room that doubles as a game room and bedroom that's ideal for the kiddos! This room features a foosball table, loveseat, TV, twin bed, and a pyramid bunk bed (twin bed over double bed). Located off of this room is where you will find the second bathroom this bungalow offers, and it features a shower stall. Connected by a door to the game room/kids room is where you will find the roomy third bedroom featuring a cozy queen bed and other TV! This room has access to a screened-in deck, with a table and twinkling cafe lights strung above.

Our top Vacation rental booking tips and tricks:

When to visit Kitty Hawk & When to book:

• Summertime is the most expensive season along the coast of NC. To find the best value, change your vacation week to the Spring or Fall months. May, September, and October offer great temperatures, , and reduced traffic.
• The sooner you can reserve a vacation rental, the easier your search will be. The most desirable vacation rentals are booked very early. Booking your rental six to twelve months before your travel dates is recommended. Holiday gatherings are excellent times to search for and reserve your rental.
• Some hosts and property managers offer rate reductions for veterans. Ask your property manager if special offers are available for your group.
• Property management companies frequently offer customers an option to obtain vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which normally costs 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed trip time as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance might be a a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for additional information.
• Often, management companies supply Kitty Hawk area travel guides which will include money-saving offers, either offered directly by local companies, or through a partnership between the property management company and the business itself. You can also find Kitty Hawk visitors guide and coupon books at local gas stations and shopping centers.

Filter your rental search:

• Choose your dates and max budget.
• Decide how many beds and what type of bedroom configuration your group requires. 4119 The Dolphin Boat * Across Street from Beach has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our Kitty Hawk rentals search.
• Precise information about bedrooms and bed types is commonly accessible on booking websites. If they are not listed, email or call the host before you reserve the vacation property. Remember that most property listings specify maximum guest capacity, which usually includes pull out couches in living rooms. You will need to determine what is optimal for your group.
• If there's a specific Kitty Hawk attraction you are crazy about, keep an eye out for rentals that are either close by, or those that cater especially to your desires.
• Proper accessibility can make or break a vacation for persons with a disability. Make certain to inquire about specialized equipment and wheel chair accessibility.
• Are you traveling with furry, four-legged family members? Many vacation homes allow animals, but guidelines and restrictions apply. Type of pet, size and breeds may be limited. Remember to ask your host before booking, and study your agreement thoroughly! Extra fees or charges could be applied to your invoice.

Considerations for your stay:

• Be sure you get the property manager's contact number and entry/exit procedures for your rental home.
• To make certain no damages are linked to your family's stay, note any problem areas during check in. Speak to the host immediately to relay your findings. If there is a dispute about legal responsibility later, having the recorded issues and contact attempts will be useful.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a hot tub, stereo or WIFI setup. Contact your property manager. They are there to help! A brief call prevents lots of concerns.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like unpleasant vacationers bothering your quiet neighborhood. Apply the golden rule for common sense. If they like you, locals might even recommend great local food and scenic spots you would've not otherwise known about!
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Residents can frequently help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to find the fresh catch of the day, have a great night out, or the best spots for crabbing?
• Lock your rental while you are out and about. Protect your property!
• Upon check-out, complete a walk-through to make sure you have not forget anything. Re-check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden treasure. Clean the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Walk through the property a final time and scan for any damage. We recommend walking through with the host whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the host is not available, remember to take photographs of the rental to record its condition at check-out.
• Did your family have a fantastic stay? Many rental management companies make it easy for customers to provide feedback. If your property and/or property management company was great, they would love to hear it. If anything was imperfect and they failed to address it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make a note as part of your feedback.
