As a whole, we have come to expect a lot from our vacation rentals in Hatteras NC. No longer are we willing to accept cramped spaces that force our entire family to share a single room, a bathroom, and on many occasions (depending on the size of our families), a bed. We want the space to roam, our own beds, baths, and seats at a dining table, and we want kitchens so we don’t have to eat out every meal if we don’t feel like it. And when you begin to choose our Lighthouse View beachy escape for your upcoming journey to Cape Hatteras, North Carolina, you will get all you want, plus all the top amenities you can’t miss out on, making all your vacation dreams come true!

Those Views

First, let’s start with something simple, something you may not have considered an amenity until you didn’t have it at your last vacation rental: the views you will see through nearly every window, views that will sneak into your heart. There’s a wild and rugged beauty in the Cape Hatteras land and seascape, and the kaleidoscope of color, green foliage, white sands, and blue waters may soon end up being a familiar one as you try to replicate in the décor of your own home. Sea oats and palm trees swaying in the sea breezes, whitecaps on the waves that are crashing against sandy shores, and a peek and a glimpse at other cottages in the area, their clapboard fronts weathered gray from years of exposure to the elements. These views will soon seem like home, and you may never feel at home until you are able to experience them once again.

The Ocean in Your Yard

At home, your backyard may be an oasis of neatly trimmed grass, perhaps dominated by its own body of water, an in-ground pool, but here on Cape Hatteras in your Lighthouse View retreat, the “yards” will be in no way considered neat and refined. Yours will consist of sandy beaches and salt air, with the roar of the surf reminding you that you aren’t in Kansas anymore. You will be able to wake up every morning, step out your door, and find yourself at water’s edge with just a short walk, perhaps watching the world come alive around you as the sun washes away the dark of night. You and your family can spend your days building sandcastles, basking in the warmth of the sun’s rays, perhaps even napping under the protective shade of a colorful umbrella, the scents and sounds that surround you appealing to all your senses, and when the sun falls back into the sea, turning the skies above you into fire and joy before morphing into a silky darkness, you will know that your Cape Hatteras vacation idea truly was the best one!

The Space You Require

Our Lighthouse View vacation rentals in Hatteras NC come in a variety of sizes and configurations, but even our simple rooms will have the space you require for your peace of mind. Our rooms will be more like the ones in a bed and breakfast than what you expect from a hotel, offering a serene personality and a charm that will make you feel at home even as you are far from your own. Most are designed for a maximum of two people, adding an element of romance to your beach vacation that can’t always be enjoyed when children tag along. If you are traveling with children, the space available in our roomy suites will give each guest the privacy they need each night. And when your party is a larger one, obviously you will want even more space, which is one more thing that makes our cozy cottages stand out in a crowd. Spacious and comfortable, your group will enjoy every moment of your North Carolina vacation when you choose one of our roomy cottages.

Internet

As the world begins to understand the benefits of working from home, and not just the realization that you don’t have to buy pants, we have also discovered that you can work from any home, not just your own. Combining business with all the pleasure of a beach vacation, travelers can extend their stays or just choose to take a vacation on a random week in the middle of the month, simply because internet allows them to work from our kitchen tables or from the cozy confines of a bedroom where you may find a desk set up for that purpose. Post the pictures of your adventures on your favorite social networking sites, create videos for the other sites, and if your kids are also “working from home” for their schooling purposes, they can engage in online learning, just as they would at home.

Many Ways to Play and Relax

Your vacation experience will be enhanced by all the ways you can play and relax during your vacation of a lifetime in Cape Hatteras. State of the art televisions will be in the living rooms but may also be in all or most of the bedrooms as well, ensuring you can be entertained day and night. Some people simply can’t wind down at the end of the day without watching a little television, so go ahead, flip it on, do a little channel surfing, and then fall into a deep and restful sleep. Some of our properties may offer shelves or cabinets holding a selection of board games, giving guests something extra to do on a quiet night. The dining room tables will be surrounded with enough seats for every seat in your traveling party, so pull out a game, a chair, and let the games begin! And when it comes time to relax, there are so many ways to do so at home with our Cape Hatteras NC vacation rentals, including comfy chairs on decks that look out on to those views we talked about earlier on the page, plush sofas in the living room that will more than likely be the site of many refreshing naps, and the most comfortable beds in the state. We want our guests to feel at home even as they are many, many miles from their own backyards, and we furnish our properties to welcome each soul who walks in the door.

Fully Equipped Kitchens

Freedom means a lot of things to a lot of people and to travelers it can simply mean you can stay home and eat a meal in your comfy clothes, instead of having to spend extra money and go out for every meal. Our fully equipped kitchens are furnished with the big appliances (ranges, refrigerators, dishwashers) and the smaller ones, including coffee makers and blenders, ensuring that all your beverage needs will be met. The cabinets in our kitchens will provide enough dishes, glassware, baking ware, and silverware for every member of your traveling party and the barstools that belly up to breakfast bars will provide the ideal spots in which to enjoy a bowl of cereal on mornings you just aren’t willing to leave the beach, not even to eat.

Community Grills

One of the more popular Cape Hatteras activities involves a pole, bait, and endless patience, and when that patience is rewarded with a silvery fish dangling on the business end of the line, it is almost like magic, because ta-da, now you have dinner plans that also allow you to stick closer to the beach. You could fry up your catch of the day in the kitchens we mentioned above, but every fisherman and woman knows that the best way to prepare this very fresh and tasty protein is by tossing it on the grill, continuing your outdoor adventures even more. Our community grill area is quite near another community amenity we will be discussing further down the page and is also quite close to our fish cleaning stations. (See? We told you that fishing was a popular activity on Cape Hatteras!)

Community Pool

Yes, the ocean lies just steps away, but not everyone enjoys swimming in a big sea with all the sea life that inhabits the waters, and even if that isn’t an issue, there is something luxurious about a dip in a crystal-clear pool on a hot summer day. Floating around the blue waters atop a raft that may look like a piece of pizza, or donut, or ice cream cone, there are many fun rafts that can be purchased inexpensively. Work on your tan as you sip a frosty margarita (no glass containers in the pool area or on the beach, please), sitting in loungers that line the sides of the pool while watching your kiddos hold underwater tea parties, and just relax as the sea provides a beautiful backdrop to your pool shenanigans, leaving you unable and unwilling to forget about its presence.

Community Hot Tub

After a long day of hiking, exploring, and enjoying all there is to do in this part of North Carolina, there is a very real possibility that you will return “home” at the end of each day feeling exhilarated but exhausted and maybe a little achy as well. The community hot tub can fix that for you, all its bubbling jets soothing your aching muscles and the heat of the water working to loosen them as well. The hot tub is where friendships are deepened, romances are found to be more romantic, and well, life just gets better. We’ve soaked in hot tubs all by ourselves, savoring the solitary luxury of extra time on our hands and no demands on our patience, and we can tell you, these solo experiences are just as fun as the ones we have shared with family or friends.

Welcome, Fido!

While not every property we offer is pet friendly, enough of them are to make you consider bringing your sweet pooch along for the ride. Our dogs are the most loyal, the most loving, and as much as they make our life better, we too often tend to leave them behind, but not during your North Carolina vacation. Dogs are allowed on Cape Hatteras National Seashore, but they must remain leashed on leashes that are no longer than six feet long, and there are a variety of other activities you can engage in with your four-legged baby, showing your love and loyalty right back at him. Even better, there will be no sacrifices when you choose a pet friendly escape over one that does not accept pets, as all our properties are equal to each other, providing a pristine luxury, a quiet serenity, and a home away from home that will make you feel comfortable and at ease.

The Lighthouse View Difference

Even as many amenities may be the same ones you find in other vacation properties, the Lighthouse View difference will be felt within seconds of walking in the door. A sense of serenity will great each guest, a serenity that reflects the sea, the sands, and the beauty of nature that surrounds us. Feeling your shoulders loosen and whatever lingering troubles may be lurking in your brain fall to the floor like a discarded clerk could be considered an amenity, and the quiet that surrounds you will actually help to quiet the noises in your brain. Life is better at the beach, and as you dive right into the beach life experience, you will know that choosing Cape Hatteras, choosing Lighthouse View, was the best decision that you could have made this year, leaving you eager to see what all awaits.
