A Quaint Condo in an Unbeatable Location
Thanks to 'Chiller Whale', you can afford an Outer Banks hideaway even with a smaller family! Immerse yourself in a casual state of mind in this comfortable, delightfully decorated condo with modern amenities. This condo is in the centrally located Sundune Village, close to stores, eateries, and local attractions but effortlessly within walking distance of the beach! In fact, the E. Martin Street Beach Access is only about 500 feet from the Sundune Village complex, meaning your family can dip their toes in the sand after a short 3-min. walk! Sundune Village offers great outdoor amenities for guests including a enormous community pool with plenty of calming lounge chairs so you can comfortably work on your tan or read your favorite book after going for a dip in the water. Behind the pool, a nice yard area features outdoor grilles and picnic tables so you can effortlessly prepare up some burgers and hot dogs, or even your fresh catch of the day! A horseshoe pit is also available if you're feeling like some friendly competition!

As you enter Chiller Whale, you'll notice the kitchen offers plenty of counter space and all of the amenities you need to prepare your family's favorite meals. The kitchen bar offers additional counter prep space and also has seating for three. Right across the kitchen, a glass round dining table has seating for 4 and doubles as a great place to appreciate puzzles, cards, or board games. You will adore the huge living area that lets in copious amounts of natural sunlight and features a cozy egg chair, dark wooden coffee and end tables, and a sizable blue couch that ideally complements the deep orange wall behind it. This comfortable and colorful ambiance is all located around a cozy fireplace and huge TV with Roku, a DVD player, and stereo system. If you need more sleeping space, the couch converts into a queen sleeper couch. Down the hall, a stackable washer/dryer unit is conveniently located outside of the two bedrooms and a full-sized bathroom is accessible from the hall. The first bedroom features gorgeous decorations, beachy wicker furnishings, and a relaxing queen bed. The king master suite with an attached full bath is the ideal place to relax and includes a TV and Roku. The best parts of your vacation will be stepping out onto the balcony where you'll be able to watch the sky change colors at dusk and dawn! The balcony faces south so if you look to the left you'll have a partial ocean view, ideal for sunrises over the Atlantic, and if you look right you'll get to see those pretty OBX sunsets.

Some of the Finest Outer Banks Attractions -- No Car Necessary!
The close proximity to the beach isn't the only selling point for Chiller Whale. Some of the best OBX dining spots are a short walk away, including Daredevil's Pizza -- one of the best pies you'll find on the island! Another tasty choice within walking distance is Bonzer Shack. Their fish tacos with fried mahi-mahi are unbeatable! If you're looking for a good time in the evening, Bonzer Shack has that as well. It's a fashionable nightlife spot for both locals and tourists with a sizable, enclosed yard outback. Some nights, they even host DJs and live bands!

While you certainly don't HAVE to bring a car to savor many attractions in Kill Devil Hills, we still want to mention some cant-miss places to check out that are just a bit further than walking distance! The first and most famed has to be the Wright Brothers Memorial. Kill Devil Hills is where the Wright Brothers took their first flight and the fun in this area has been soaring ever since. Learn all about it when you visit the interactive museum. In the mornings, head over to Bob's Grille for a breakfast of champions! Pro tip: if you're super hungry you can try their dozen-egg omelet, but we bet you won't finish it. Prove us wrong! For lunch or dinner, you can't go wrong with a burger from Jack Brown's Beer & Burger Joint -- all their delicious burgers are made from 100% wagyu beef. The Outer Banks Brewing Station offers fun for the entire family! They have cornhole and acoustic performances in the large outdoor fenced-in area some evenings from 6-9 PM and live bands for the adults from 10 PM to 2 AM on the weekends (pending seasonal availability)! Book a trip to Chiller Whale and start making those family memories that will last a lifetime!

Tricks and tips to get the best rental experience:

How to get the best rental value:

• Summertime is high season in Kill Devil Hills. Booking your Kill Devil Hills vacation rental in Fall or Spring months is our favorite way to save money on your rental home. Rental rates are lower, and you'll find a better selection of desirable properties. Many vacationers use this method to find larger homes within budget, or to reserve a beach front rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during the Summer.
• The sooner your group can reserve a home, the easier your search will be. The most desirable rental homes are reserved early. Booking your rental home six - twelve months before your travel dates is recommended. Holiday gatherings are excellent times to search for and reserve your vacation home.
• Hosts sometimes offer special rates for active duty military and veterans. Ask your property manager if special offers are available for your family before you book.
• Booking websites frequently offer renters an option to purchase vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which commonly will cost anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed days as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for more information.
• Many property management companies and vacation rental houses supply Kill Devil Hills area visitors guide magazines which will include coupons, either offered directly by local companies, or through a relationship with the property management company and the business itself. You can also find visitors guide and coupon books at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers.

Planning and choosing yourrental:

• Begin by selecting your the best vacation week and a maximum budget.
• Determine how many beds and what type of bedroom configuration your group requires. SDV309 Chiller Whale * 3 Min Walk to Beach has 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts is generally available on booking websites. If not, email or call the property owner before you book the home. Remember that most property listings specify the max. guest capacity, which usually includes sofa beds and bunks. You will need to establish what is optimal for your group.
• Visiting for a specific attraction? Try a map search to locate nearby properties.
• Appropriate accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for guests with disabilities. Make certain to inquire about specialized equipment and wheel chair accessibility.
• If your family is bringing pets, you will need a pet-friendly property. Make sure to ask for information on breed, weight, and type requirements. Often, hosts charge pet deposits and fees.

More tips for your visit:

• Be sure you get the property manager's contact number and arrival/departure procedures for your rental home.
• During check-in, make note of any damages to the property and immediately alert the host. Keep records of all correspondence in case a dispute arises.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a garage door opener, television set or coffee maker. Contact your owner. They are there to help! A brief phone call prevents a lot of concerns.
• Respecting quiet hours and parking rules can make a stay significantly more pleasurable. Be a good neighbor. You will magnify your chance to make some new local friends, and resident neighbors are usually a fantastic source for finding the best local beaches and hangouts.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Residents can usually help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to find the best seashells, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for crabbing?
• Ensure you protect the rental owner (and your stuff!) by locking and securing the home when you are gone, just like you would at home.
• When it's time to leave, take a final walk-through to confirm you have not forget any personal items. Re-check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden treasure. Clean the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Did your group have a wonderful vacation? Most rental websites make it easy for customers to provide reviews. If your rental and/or host was great, they would love to hear about it. If anything was imperfect and they failed to fix it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make it a point as part of your feedback.
