Sweet Tea is a classic Outer Banks 1950's oceanfront beach bungalow located directly on the beach in Kitty Hawk, North Carolina. In restoring the bungalow, we have lovingly saved her timeless beauty and refreshed her with modern-day amenities. You MUST see to appreciate. And the beach and ocean are literally in your back yard . . . just walk down the porch steps and you're there. You don't get any closer than this!!
Sweet Tea bungalow features an open living area with an oceanfront wall of windows maximizing the impressive vistas. Classic tongue-and-groove paneling throughout, gorgeous hickory wood and ceramic tile floor, tons and tons of natural light, and ocean vistas from every room. The living room features comfortable seating, a enormous flat screen TV and ceiling fan. Adjoining the living area is the dining room with ample seating overlooking the sun deck, beach and Atlantic ocean. Appreciate your morning coffee watching the dolphins play in the surf and the sun rise on the Atlantic . . . you'll never want to get out of your PJ's.
The well equipped kitchen features stainless steel appliances, refrigerator with filtered water and ice on the door, bespoke cabinetry, elegant quartz counter tops . . . and just about everything you need to prepare your favorite meals and entertain. Extending the living area is an oceanfront sundeck where you can catch some rays and watch the dolphins play in the surf. Savor evening beverages sitting in the tall adirondack chairs watching the pelicans soar over the ocean, or perhaps move to the front covered porch and savor the westerly breezes as the sun goes down. SOOO calming! Sweet Tea bungalow offers three bedrooms and sleeps 6 comfortably (4 adults, 2 kids) with one king bedroom, one queen bedroom, and one bedroom with two twin beds . . . all with vistas of the ocean. Don't let the one bathroom concern you as you'll want to take all your showers outdoors in the private, enclosed outside shower with hot and cold water. The bungalow also features a laundry room with stackable washer and dryer, ceiling fans in all bedrooms and living room, and central heat and air.

Sweet Tea is located in Kitty Hawk within a short drive to many local eateries, shopping and attractions and walking distance to Ocean Boulevard Bistro & Martini Bar and Art's Place (a true "diner & dive" known for the best burger on the beach!).

How to get the best Kitty Hawk rental experience:

Money saving strategies:

• Reserve your Kitty Hawk rental home in the Fall or Spring shoulder seasons to enjoy warm weather while saving money and avoiding crowded roads, restaurants, and activities. Many vacationers use this method to find larger homes within budget, or to reserve a beach front rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during June, July, and August. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Kitty Hawk vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday near the ocean? Thanksgiving and Christmas are great times to gather with loved ones at the beach.
• The sooner your group can reserve a vacation home, the easier your search will be. The best properties are booked very early. Reserving your rental home up to twelve months before your vacation is recommended. Winter holidays are excellent times to search for and book your vacation home.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property manager whether your family qualifies for a reduced rate.
• Management companies and individual rental owners usually offer customers an option to obtain vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which usually costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed trip time as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as ensuing additional evacuation costs or charges, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance might be a a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for program terms and fees.
• Find a copy of your local Kitty Hawk area magazine when you arrive at the rental property. If your rental doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local grocery stores and visitor centers. In addition to great information, visitors guides contain discounts for nearby tours, shops, and attractions.

Use filters to narrow your rental search:

• Select a group leader, choose your trip dates, and select a maximum budget.
• Determine how many beds and the bed configuration your family requires. Cozy Oceanfront Cottage with Spectacular Views! has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts is usually available on booking websites. Otherwise, email the property owner before booking the home. Note that most listings specify maximum guest capacity, which frequently includes sofa beds and bunks. You'll need to establish what is right for your vacation family.
• Visiting for a specific event or attraction? If so, use a map search to locate nearby properties.
• Proper accessibility can make or break a vacation for persons with disabilities. Confirm all necessary amenities are available before reserving a rental
• Are you traveling with furry, four-legged family members? Although a number of vacation homes allow pets or animals, guidelines and costs vary per property. Type of pet, size and breeds may be limited. Make sure to ask before booking, and study your agreement thoroughly! Additional fees or costs might be applied to your invoice.

Advice for a terrific stay:

• Get the host's contact number and entry/exit procedures for your rental.
• During arrival, record any issues with the property and immediately contact the owner. Keep records of all coorespondence.
• Hosts are great sources of help! Don't be shy to ask any questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like unpleasant vacationers disrupting your home life. Practice the golden rule for best judgement. Happy residents may even recommend great local food and places you would have not otherwise known about!
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Local residents can frequently point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to get the best seafood, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for BBQ?
• Lock your vacation home while you are out and about. Keep your property safe!
• Re-check the property to make sure that you've packed all of your family's items on check-out day. Remember to check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden belongings. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Go through the rental a final time and keep an eye out for any damage. We suggest inspecting the property with the property manager whenever you can. If the manager is not available, remember to take pictures of the rental to record its condition at check-out.
• Did your family have a wonderful time? Many rental management companies make it easy for customers to provide feedback. If your rental property and/or host was wonderful, they would love to hear about it. If anything was inoperable and they failed to correct it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make a note as part of your comments.
