Ready for memorable days with ideal endings? It happens at Sunset Key! This elegant freshly-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 attractively at Sunset Key!

Tips to get the very best vacation rental experience:

Getting the best rental value:

• Book your vacation home as soon as possible. Rental schedules generally become available twelve months in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many groups book their Summer rental homes during Thanksgiving and Christmas gatherings. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Booking a rental in Fall or Spring is our best tip for saving money on your rental home. Rental rates are lower, and you'll find a larger selection of desirable properties. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, or to reserve a beach front rental that would otherwise be unavailable during the Summer months.
• Some hosts and property managers offer promotional rates for veterans and active duty military. It's always a good idea to check with your property manager to see if discounts are available for your family before you book.
• Booking websites typically offer customers an option to add trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which generally costs 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed time as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel stay or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance can be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for specifics.
• Look for your local Crystal Coast visitors guide when you arrive at the rental property. If your rental doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local shops and fuel stations. In addition to great local stories, visitors guide magazines have discounts for nearby accommodations, restaurants and tours.

Selecting and booking the perfect Crystal Coast rental:

• Select a designated group leader, choose your vacation week, and select a maximum budget.
• Note the number bedrooms and the configuration you need. Sunsets on the Sound and Poolside Luxury at the Jewel of Emerald Isle! has 5 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms.
• Precise details about bedrooms and bed types is often available online. Otherwise, contact the property management company before you book the rental. Note that most properties list maximum guest capacity, which usually includes sofa beds in living rooms. You will need to determine which bed configuration is best for your vacation group.
• Some properties allow pets, but others don't. Allowable types of pet, weight and breeds may be restricted, and additional charges may apply. Ask the property manager about allowable pet guidelines before booking.
• If there's a specific Crystal Coast beach you crave, look for properties that are either near by, or those that cater to your needs.
• Suitable accessibility can make or break a vacation for guests that require the use of a wheelchair. Make certain to ask about specialized equipment and wheel chair accessibility.

More tips for your visit:

• Add the host's contact info to your smartphone. Understand and take a copy of check in/check out procedures.
• Hosts are there to help! Feel free to ask questions during your stay.
• Protect the owner (and your things!) by locking and securing the home while you are gone, just like you would back home.
• To ensure that damages are not linked to your visit, record any problem areas during check in. Get in touch with the rental manager immediately to report any issues. If there is a dispute about who is responsible, having a record of problems and contact attempts will be useful.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like unpleasant visitors disrupting your peace and quiet. Use the golden rule for best judgement. Happy residents may even recommend great restaurants and attractions you would've not otherwise known about!
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Residents can usually help. Who better to ask where to get the best breakfast in town, have a great night out, or the best spots for bird watching?
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before you drive away, walk through the property to confirm you've collected all personal items. Re-check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden treasure. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Go through the property a final time and scan for damages to contents or the property itself. We suggest walking through with the host whenever possible. If the property manager is not available, ensure that you take photos and video of the rental to record its condition at check-out.
• Did your family have a excellent time? Many rental websites make it easy for customers to provide comments. If your property and/or host was terrific, they always love to hear your praise. If anything was wrong and they failed to fix it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make it a point as part of your review.
