Vacation in Luxury
Vacation like a celebrity when you book Victorian Fan Ta Sea. Once featured on TLC's Jon & Kate Plus 8, this sizable Victorian-style rental is the ideal place to bring the whole family (and your four-legged best friend!) for a calming hideaway. Less than 500 yards to the beach, a day of fun in the sun is just a short walk away.

Pull up to your Victorian beach bungalow and park underneath one of two single-car carports and savor plenty of outdoor space to store your beach gear. Summers get hot in the OBX so you and your family will adore relaxing around in the giant (16' x 32') Private Pool and appreciating some friendly competition at the Ping Pong Table. A comfortable Game Room with a half bath is the ideal place to pull out your favorite board game or have some fun with the Pool Table and Foosball Table. The convenient Wet Bar with a drink refrigerator ensures snacks and cool drinks are at your fingertips. The laundry area is also located on this level.

Walk upstairs to the first level and enter into a huge, decorated entryway. Rest comfortably in one of the 2 King Bedrooms or the plush Queen Bedroom. The Bunk Bedroom down the hall is a great place for the kids to hang out with a Pyramid Bunk and a Twin-Over-Twin Bunk Bed. Two Full Bathrooms are located between the bedrooms. Appreciate your peaceful, peaceful mornings sipping coffee on the enclosed sundeck with a ceiling fan. Outside, the deck swing is the ideal place to chill after a long day of fun and there is plenty of covered deck space that wraps around the front and side of the home if you prefer to sit in the shade.

The great room on the top floor features a half bath and a humongous dining room with seating for ten around the table. The modern kitchen is a great place to prepare up your favorite meal and includes updated appliances, a coffee station with a drip coffee maker as well as Keurig and espresso, a blender, iron, ironing board, and a pantry closet for all your beach snacks. Take a seat in the gorgeous family room full of bright, natural light, so you can appreciate the sun even when it's too hot to sit directly outside, and take a nap on the sleeper couch. A raised living room area on this level features a TV, fireplace, and tons of seating so the whole family can spend some time making memories together. An inviting King Master Suite with Full Bath completes the top level. Soak up the sea breeze and savor impressive ocean vistas from the outdoor decks wrapping around the side of your Victorian beach home. For ultimate serenity, take a dip in the bubbly hot tub under the covered outdoor gazebo complete with marvelous vistas.

Tricks and tips to get the best vacation rental experience:

Cost saving strategies:

• Reserve your vacation home as early as possible. Rental schedules often open 12 months in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many groups reserve their Summer rentals during Christmas and Thanksgiving gatherings. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Summer is high season in the Currituck area. Booking your vacation rental in Spring or Fall is our favorite way to save money on your vacation home. Rental rates are lower, and you'll find a larger selection of suitable homes. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, or to book an oceanfront vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable during the Summer months. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Currituck vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation on the coast? Christmas, Thanksgiving, and New Years Eve are great times to gather with family and friends at your favorite beach.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property owner or host if your family qualifies for a special promotion or discount.
• Management companies and individual rental owners frequently offer renters an option to obtain vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which generally will cost between 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed days as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance might be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for specifics.
• Find a copy of your local visitors guide when you arrive at the rental property. If your rental doesn't have one, you can find them at local shops and fuel stations. In addition to great information, travel guide magazines contain discounts for nearby accommodations, restaurants and tours.

Make a plan and pick your prefect Currituck rental home:

• First, have your group commit to a vacation week and a spending budget.
• Note the number beds and the bed configuration your family needs. 1016 Victorian Fan Ta Sea * 3 Min Walk to Beach has 5 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our rentals search.
• Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is generally accessible online. If they are not listed, contact the host before reserving the vacation home. Remember that most listings specify the max. guest capacity, which typically includes sofa beds in living rooms. You will need to work out what is best for your vacation.
• If your family is vacationing with pets, you must book a rental that allows animals. Get details on breed, size, and type requirements. Some property managers require additional pet deposits and fees.
• Does your family require particular amenities? Most rental search websites include amenity lists and search filters. Amenity filters help you quickly remove less-optimal properties.
• Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for those with limited mobility. Confirm all required amenities are included before booking.

Advice for a fantastic stay:

• Add the property manager's information to your smartphone. Print and take a copy of check in/check out procedures.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a fireplace, A/V setup or washer/dryer. Contact your host. They are there to help! A brief phone call can prevent a lot of difficulties.
• Ensure you protect the rental owner (and your things!) by keeping the rental locked up when you are out, just like you would at home.
• Document any damages to the property at check in, and immediately e-mail them to the property manager. We especially recommend e-mails and text messages, as they usually contain built-in time stamps that are beneficial if damages are assessed.
• Don't forget to respect your neighbors. Often times, surrounding homes are filled by local residents. Respecting quiet hours and parking rules reduces conflict and allows everyone to enjoy their day.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Residents can usually help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to spend a rainy day, have a great night out, or the best spots for shopping?
• When it's time to leave, take a final walk-through to make sure you did not forget anything. Re-check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden belongings. Clean out the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Leave feedback! Property owners rely on great ratings to propel future reservations. They'll be thankful for your review. Alternatively, if something wasn't right, other vacationing families will be thankful you shared your experience find their best vacation home. Remember to be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the host could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded reasonably to fix it.
