In addition to the many amenities, Mint Julep is also an oceanside home that's less than a fifth of a mile away or a fast 3-min. walk from the beach!

The ground floor holds the rec room with a mounted intelligent TV on the wall and an air hockey game that will offer hours of fun competition.

The attached master bath has been refreshed with new vanities and granite/tile in the cavernous shower. There are 2 additional queen bedrooms that share a hall bath with a shower/tub combo. All the bedrooms even have mounted intelligent TVs! The mid-level comes complete with a front and back covered porch and patio area that's ideal for invigorating outdoor lunches!

The top level has pretty cathedral ceilings that will certainly catch your eye as you enter. There's seating for 6 at the dining room table, with additional seating for 4 at the round table and 3 more at the bar!

How to book the best vacation property experience:

Money saving strategies:

• Reserve your vacation home as early as possible. Rental schedules usually open 12 months in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many groups book their Summer vacations during Winter holiday get-togethers. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Summer months are high season in Kill Devil Hills. Reserve your rental home in Fall or Spring to enjoy beautiful weather while saving money and avoiding crowded roads, restaurants, and activities. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Kill Devil Hills vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday near the ocean? Christmas, Thanksgiving, and New Years Eve are great times to gather with family and friends at your favorite beach.
• Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective vacation rental company or host if your family qualifies for a special promotion or discount.
• Property management companies often offer their guests an option to obtain trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed time as a result of medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for specifics.
• Often, rental management companies and vacation rental houses supply Kill Devil Hills area visitor guide magazines that include special deals, either offered directly by local companies, or through a partnership between the management company and the business itself. You can also find visitors guide and coupon books at local gas stations and shopping centers.

How to choose the perfect vacation home in the Kill Devil Hills area:

• Start by choosing your trip dates and a spending budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and the configuration your group needs. Mint Julep*Elevator*2Ensuites*Pool*Foosball*PacMan has 6 bedrooms and 6 bathrooms.
• Precise information about bedrooms and bed counts is normally available on booking pages. Otherwise, call the property owner before booking the home. Note that most properties list the max. guest capacity, which frequently includes pull-out couches and bunk beds.
• Some rental properties allow pets, and others don't. Acceptable types of dog or cat, size and breeds may be restricted, and additional costs may apply. Ask your host about pet restrictions before booking.
• If there's a specific Kill Devil Hills beach you crave, browse properties that are either nearby, or those that cater especially to your requirements.
• Appropriate accessibility can make or break a vacation for the less-mobile. .

Tips for a fantastic stay:

• Store the host's contact information in your smartphone.
• Hosts are great sources of help! Don't be shy to ask any questions during your stay.
• Keep the property locked while you are gone! Don't let thieves spoil your trip.
• Upon arrival, document any issues with the property and immediately alert the owner. Record all coorespondence.
• Respecting quiet hours and parking restrictions can make a stay significantly more pleasurable. You will increase your chance to make local friends, and resident neighbors are usually a terrific resource to find the best local beaches and restaurants.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Locals can often help. Who better to ask where to find the best seashells, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fishing?
• Just prior to departing, complete a walk-through to confirm you didn't leave anything behind. Check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden items. Clean the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Inspect the rental one final time and scan for any damage. We recommend walking through with the property manager whenever possible. If the host is not available, ensure that you take video of the rental to record its condition at check-out.
• Did you have a excellent vacation? Many rental managers make it easy for clients to provide feedback. If your rental and/or property management company was fantastic, they would love to hear it. If anything was inoperable and they failed to address it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make a note as part of your feedback.
