Construction

The Outer Banks is a highly desirable and growing area. You may reserve a house at a time when there is no construction in progress nearby, but construction could begin prior to your arrival. We regret any inconvenience to you but have no control over these situations. Refunds or relocation will not be considered.

If you reserve a property that is new construction and the home is not completed in time for your vacation we will make every effort to find a comparable home for you, but Brindley Beach Vacations & Sales is not responsible for price differences you may incur.

Private Pools

Your private pool should be ready for use by 4:00 pm on your check-in day. Private pools receive a full clean on check-in day and a mid-week chemical check (no vacuum mid-week). Guests will be charged for any additional cleaning required due to abuse. Private pools available dates are advertised on each property. Pools that advertise a heated pool are able to be heated for the additional weekly cost of $500 plus tax, unless otherwise advertised. Pool temperatures vary and degree of warmth cannot be guaranteed.

Hot Tubs

Hot tubs should be ready for use by 4:00 pm on your check-in day. Hot tubs receive a full clean on check-in day and a mid-week chemical check. Children under the age of 12 should not be allowed in the hot tub for safety purposes. Hot tubs are available year round (unless otherwise advertised)

Fireplaces

Fireplaces are available for use from November 1 through April 30. Not all fireplaces are available for guest use, see property description for details.

Midges

We have recently seen an increased number of midges in our area. Midges are often referred to as ‘blind mosquitoes’ or ‘fuzzy bills,’ they do not bite but can be a nuisance. They are native to aquatic habitats and are common in this area. They come in large swarms and can affect outdoor activities, stain walls, cars and surfaces upon which they rest. They are attracted to lights and may hoard around windows and doors as well as porch and street lights. Eliminating exterior lighting at night and closing window shades will help minimize their presence. They are part of the Outer Banks ecology and have a short 24 hour lifespan.

Properties are privately owned

The properties managed by Brindley Beach Vacations & Sales are privately owned and reflect the needs and tastes of the Owners. The conditions of the property, as well as the furnishings, will vary according to the Owner’s desires. Every effort has been made to assure that the descriptions of the properties are correct; however, we cannot be responsible for changes made by the Owner to the furnishings or equipment. There will be no refunds due to the property not being decorated or accommodated to your personal taste or due to minor discrepancies within the website or property description.

Brindley Beach Vacations & Sales is not responsible for errors or omissions within this web site.
