Before you climb the deck stairs to the main level, do yourself a favor and stop for a moment to take in the opulent, heated pool. When you eventually enter the house, you will be greeted by a spacious entry area, well-stocked kitchen with stone countertops and stainless steel appliances to your left, and the open dining room straight ahead leading into a cozy living area with a smart tv and comfortable sofa bed. Just off of the living room is a luxurious master suite equipped with an exquisite king-size bed and en suite bath. If you instead pass through the kitchen, you will encounter a quaint hallway leading to a second bedroom with a queen-size bed, the laundry room with washer and dryer, and a second private bath. Walk up the stairs, and you will come to two additional bedrooms and a third full bathroom. To your left is a comfortable bedroom with a full-size bed, private balcony, and a magnificent view of the sand dunes that rest between the neighborhood and the beach. Leave your windows open at night and fall asleep to the sounds of the crashing waves! On the other end of the upstairs is a cheerful bedroom with two twin beds that are perfect for any singles or kids in your group. Back on the main level, grab your favorite book or beverage (or both!) and head for some quiet time on the screened-in porch, or mosey on down to the backyard for some outdoor games, or grill some juicy steaks or fresh seafood on the charcoal grill. No matter where you are on the property, the tranquil ambiance and attention to detail are sure to leave a lasting impression. Don't be surprised when you find yourself already planning next year's return trip! *ULTRA CLEAN GUARANTEE: We want guests to book with the assurance that the house will be Ultra Clean when they arrive. That's why we offer the Ultra Clean Guarantee backed by Butler Cleaning Services. When a guest checks in, we guarantee that the house will be perfectly clean to their liking or we will gladly send our cleaning team out to the house to remedy the situation. *OPTIONAL POOL HEATER: Guests have the OPTION to request that the pool heater be turned on during their stay. Please note that the availability of the pool heater is completely weather dependent. The pool heater is only available when the heater can effectively maintain the pool at a comfortable temperature (minimum water temperature of 80 degrees), which is when air temperatures are consistently at or above approximately 60 degrees (including overnight). Most years, this means that the heater is available from around mid-April until Mid-October (weather dependent). Because use of the pool heater is an optional feature, refunds will not be provided if the pool heater is unavailable during a Guest’s stay for any reason (e.g., cooler weather, maintenance, etc.). NOTE ABOUT PARTIES, LARGE GATHERINGS & EXCESSIVE NOISE: Please also note that if you are looking for a location to host a party or loud gathering, this is definitely NOT the place for you. We have an amazing association of neighbors who work collectively to maintain the beauty and tranquility of the neighborhood. In an effort to do our part, we have a strict "no parties" policy, and the safety and tranquility of our guests and neighborhood are ensured by exterior security cameras and a Minut noise monitoring device that will immediately alert us when excessive noise levels are detected. Any guest who hosts, or attempts to host, an unauthorized gathering will be subject to immediate eviction without refund and a $500 fine (withheld from their security deposit). However, if relaxation, rejuvenation, and quality time with family and friends is what you are looking for, you will not find a more ideal setting in all of Emerald Isle!
