SUMMER SAVINGS - Oceanside Dog Friendly w/ Hot Tub, Screened Porch, Beach Nearby

OCEANSIDE Waves — Sea Isle Hills Dr. — In spite of trying to find a reason to continue your search for a vacation rental, IN SPITE OF OURSELVES just may make you stop right here. Located nearly equal distance from both the ocean and Pamlico Sound — with views of each visible from multiple decks — this spacious four-bedroom/three full and two-half bath home checks all the boxes for those seeking the quintessential Hatteras Island experience.

One of those boxes is that you can bring up to two dogs, so no family member is left behind. If you’re hoping to get some fishing in, there’s a fish cleaning table and an outdoor shower to rinse off after a day in or on the water. Hang out in the lower level’s media room featuring a spacious sectional sofa to watch the Smart TV and a small beverage refrigerator to keep your beverages sufficiently chilled. There’s a love seat/single sleeper sofa and a half-bath here, too.

The first level is home to three of the home’s four bedrooms including a queen master bedroom with ensuite bath and a queen and two single bunk beds that share a full hallway bathroom. All of these rooms have access to a covered deck. The final bedroom, a king master, with a spacious ensuite bath featuring a jetted tub and access to an ocean-facing deck, is located on the second level. All of the bedrooms are equipped with Smart TVs.

On the top level, discover an open and airy great room that brings your family together for those memorable moments that check even more boxes — happy hours complemented by cross breezes from the wraparound decks or screened-in porch; dinners that last for hours around a spacious dining table; and family time watching favorite shows on the Smart TV. The family cook will love the well-equipped kitchen with plenty of room to prep family-favorite meals that can also be served at the four-seat breakfast counter or outside at the picnic table. Wind down the day with a soothing soak in the 6-person hot tub, a perfect place to check that final box under a moonlit sky. Book IN SPITE OF OURSELVES and feel complete.

Wonderful stay in Waves!

"In Spite of Ourselves" was the perfect home for our spring break getaway. It was super clean, well appointed and comfortable for our family. They thought of just about everything, so we were able to just relax and enjoy our stay. The area itself was quiet and away from the touristy areas, which we prefer. It was a nice halfway point between Nags Head and Ocracoke. Everywhere we wanted to visit was within a half hour drive. The beach was a quick and easy 5 minute walk down the street. We had a fabulous time and would definitely recommend this home.

Very nice home but had an issue with the rental company

Beautiful and comfortable home, equipped with all the comforts to make a wonderful and memorable vacation with the family. My only complaint lies with the surf or sound rental company. Shortly after we arrived (Sunday, August 18), we discovered that the plumbing under the kitchen sink had a significant leak due to loose plumbing. On Monday morning (August 19), I contacted the property manager and she did send maintenance out, they were unable to fix the issue, stating that an actual plumber was needed and that they would send one. No one came. The next morning on Tuesday (August 19), I again contacted the property manager who stated she would look into it but I then never heard back, nor did a plumber ever come to repair the issue, therefore causing us to transport dishes back and forth between the kitchen and the small bathroom sink, in order to wash them for the rest of our vacation. While we enjoyed our stay at this property, I would not stay due to the poor customer service from the rental company.
