Ready for memorable days with ideal endings? It happens at Sunset Key! This gorgeous newly-constructed 5BR 2.5 bath luxury home overlooking Bogue Inlet is the beach hideaway you’ve been looking for. Only a 5-min. walk to The Point, the Jewel of Emerald Isle and the best stretch of beach on Bogue Banks. 2 outdoor showers, each with a spout to wash off sandy feet, await your return from a long day of fun in the sun. Not feeling the beach today? Hang out at the pool in the backyard instead while something delicious cooks on the poolside grille, or read your favorite book in the sunroom overlooking the Sound. No need to disagree on what to watch, there are 8 Roku HDTVs and complimentary high-speed WiFi (even at the pool!), just log in to your favorite streaming app and go. In the media room, where you’ll find the pull-out couch, the TV has 60 FPS for you gamers. It looks like a long way to the top floor, but that’s what the elevator is for. To cap off each day, proceed to the porch to watch the sun paint its daily masterpiece on the majestic easel of the sky as it sets ablaze the water of Bogue Sound with its long kiss goodnight. Every day ends delightfully at Sunset Key!

Our top Emerald Isle rental home tips:

Get the best rental home value:

• Book your rental as early as possible. Rental schedules usually become available twelve months in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many families book their Summer vacation rentals during Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years Eve get-togethers. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Summer months are high season in the Morehead City area. To book the best rental home within budget, we recommend booking in the Fall or Spring shoulder seasons. You'll enjoy lower rental rates, better selection, warm weather and the absence of giant crowds at local restaurants, tours, and activities. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, or to book an oceanfront vacation rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during the Summer months. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Morehead City vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday on the coast? Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with friends and family at the beach.
• Owners sometimes offer discounts or promotional rates for active duty military and veterans. Make sure to check with your property manager to see if discounts are available for your family before you book.
• Property managers usually offer their guests an option to add trip insurance. Trip insurance, which costs between 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed trip time as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance can be a a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for program terms and fees.
• Find a copy of your local Morehead City area magazine upon checking in. If your rental home doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers. In addition to great local stories, visitor guide magazines have deals for nearby accommodations and attractions.

How to select the best vacation rental:

• Select a group leader, select your vacation dates, and choose a budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and the bed configuration your family requires. Sunsets on the Sound and Poolside Luxury at the Jewel of Emerald Isle! has 5 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our Morehead City rental home search.
• Precise information regarding bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is commonly accessible on booking websites. If you don't see them listed, contact the property manager before reserving the property. Remember that most property listings specify maximum guest capacity, which often includes pull out couches in living rooms. You will need to establish what configuration is suitable for your vacation group.
• If your family is bringing pets, you'll need to find a pet-friendly vacation rental. Ask for information on breed, weight, and type requirements. Usually, property managers charge additional pet fees.
• If there's a particular Morehead City attraction you are enamored with, look for properties that are either near by, or those that cater to your desires.
• Suitable accessibility can make or break a vacation for the less-mobile. Confirm all required amenities are available before booking.

During your stay:

• Take a copy of the property manager's phone number and check in/check out procedures for your rental. We recommend storing the manager's contact information in your smartphone.
• Hosts are great sources of help! Feel free to ask any questions during your stay.
• Keep the property locked while you're away! Don't let thieves spoil your trip.
• Upon check-in, record any damages to the property and immediately alert the owner. Record all coorespondence.
• Respecting quiet hours and parking regulations can make a stay significantly more pleasurable. Be a good neighbor. You'll enhance your chance to make some new local friends, and resident neighbors can be a terrific resource to find the best local beaches and hangouts.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Local residents can often help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to take kids for a treat, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for BBQ?
• Just prior to departing, complete a walk-through to confirm you didn't forget anything. Remember to check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden belongings. Clean out the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Document the condition of the property at check-out. We recommend taking a video during your final walk-through.
• After your trip, leave a review! Property owners rely on good reviews to inspire new reservations. They'll be much obliged for your feedback. Alternatively, if something went wrong, other vacationing families will appreciate that you share your review and help them have the best future vacation. Please be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the owner could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded expeditiously to remedy it.
