Celebrate together at Forever Blue! This property sleeps 16 guests with style and comfort, setting the tone for relaxing with family and friends. Take the elevator up to the top floor, where you’ll find airy and bright space for gathering or watching football on the 50” flatscreen TV and countless vistas of the ocean. Cook your meals in the pretty gourmet kitchen with a to-die-for design! Feel like a chef when you take advantage of the six-burner luxury Italian Bertazzoni Gas Range with a constructed-in warming oven, a generous kitchen island and plenty of room for functionality and simple flow. This top floor is top tier for its vista of the skyline and sea. But wait until you see the grandiose primary bedroom, featuring a king bed and enormous en suite bath with double sinks, glass and granite, and a rain shower head for the ultimate spa-like feel. Savor meals at the 8-seat dining table in the nook, or head outside onto the balcony for additional table seating and the best ocean vistas where your group will want to meet in the mornings for coffee.
Next, walk down to the second floor, where you’ll find two bedrooms that face the sea, each with its own queen bed, 48” TV, private bath, and doors to the ocean-facing deck— another great spot for your morning coffee and again in the evenings for a nightcap! The other 2 bedrooms on this floor have their own TVs and a shared bath between them. The first has a Queen bed and a Twin sleeper chair, and the other bedroom has a Twin over Double bunk with a Twin trundle bed. On this floor, you will also find a laundry closet with two washers and two dryers to accommodate your entire group.
On the lower level, you will find a cavernous rec room with a enormous sectional couch, and down the hallway, an additional additional room with a private bath is set up with twin over queen bunk beds, another TV, and a bath/shower combo. This floor features options for endless fun—on the old-school arcade game in the Rec room, with an epic battle of ping-pong in the garage, or movie nighttime on the 55” flatscreen. With an additional refrigerator, it’s painless to stay hydrated and stock up on icy beverages to take to the beach! With sitting rooms upstairs and downstairs, all needs are met when you stay at this extraordinary resort-like home.
If you think life is better at the beach, Forever Blue is the place for you with the ocean outside your door! The kidney-shaped pool, within sight of the beach, is ideal for taking fast dips, relaxing with a drink, or swimming laps. On cooler days, you can heat the pool (FOR COMPLIMENTARY!!!) and still savor splashing around to your heart's content. Easily walk for shells along the shore while the kids build sand castles, swim and body surf! At the outdoor shower, everybody can rinse off after a long day in the sun and sand.
Other things to note
Pine Knoll Shores on Bogue Banks is a one-of-a-kind spot with pristine stretches of white beaches and lush maritime forest. This extraordinary destination was once a private oceanfront reserve owned by the Roosevelts and has maintained its exclusive feel, natural beauty, and unadorned appeal. Miles of peaceful shoreline, the Crystal Coast’s namesake with clear waters and the sweet southern charm of the locals make it a classic. Proof positive is this deep-blue-sea-colored modern abode that is always blissful and — Forever Blue!
Head only a half mile down the road to the NC Aquarium, or visit close by Fort Macon, the Splash Pad or many of the local fine-dining and trendy shopping spots. You can also simply appreciate the glory of nature without moving a muscle — the sunsets here are second to none. Walk down the private beach walkway to admire the Carolina sky and the brilliant stars over the sea. Listen to the sound of the waves to lull you to sleep at nighttime and revel in this moment and the joy of the Crystal Coast.
There is no other color rather like blue— of the sea, the sky and the serenity of Forever Blue!

No family pets allowed at this home.

New Bern vacation rental booking tips and tricks:

When to book & When to go:

• Book your rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules usually become available twelve months in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many families book their Summer rentals during holiday gatherings. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• June, July, and August are the most expensive months in coastal NC. Book your New Bern rental property in Fall or Spring to enjoy gorgeous weather while saving money and avoiding crowded roads, restaurants, and activities. Many vacationers use this strategy to reserve larger homes, or to reserve a beach front rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during the Summer.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property owner or host whether your vacationing group qualifies for a discount.
• Property managers usually offer renters an option to purchase trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which generally will cost anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed trip time as a result of medical-related issues or weather, as well as evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance can be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for details.
• Find a copy of your local New Bern visitors guide upon arrival. If your rental property doesn't have one, you can find them at local shops and fuel stations. In addition to great articles, visitors guides have money saving offers on local accommodations and attractions.

Planning and choosing your prefectrental:

• Start by choosing potential vacation weeks and a maximum budget.
• Decide how many bedrooms and the bed configuration your group requires. Forever Blue-with FREE Heated Pool and Ocean View! has 6 bedrooms and 6 bathrooms.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts & types is normally accessible on booking pages. Otherwise, call the host before you book your rental. Note that most property listings specify the max. guest capacity, which usually includes pull-out couches.
• Are you traveling with furry, four-legged family members? Many vacation homes allow animals, but guidelines and restrictions apply. Type of pet, size and breeds may be limited. Ask your property manager before booking, and study your agreement! Additional fees or costs might be applied to your contract.
• Visiting for a specific attraction or event? If so, use a map search to find nearby properties.
• Suitable accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for those with limited mobility. .

Have a great stay:

• Add the owner's contact info to your smartphone. Take a copy of check in/check out procedures.
• Property managers are there to help! Don't be shy to ask any questions during your stay.
• Ensure you protect the rental owner (and your things!) by locking the rental when you are gone, just like you would at home.
• Note any issues with the property upon arrival, and immediately send them to the property manager. We especially recommend e-mails and text messages, as they usually contain time stamps that are very helpful if a dispute arises.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like unpleasant visitors bothering your peaceful home life. Practice the golden rule for best judgement. If they like you, locals might even recommend great beaches and attractions you would have not otherwise known!
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Residents can typically help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to order delicious takeout, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for shopping?
• On check-out day, complete a final walk-through to make sure you haven't forget anything. Make sure to check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden items. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Walk through the property a final time and keep an eye out for damage. We advise inspecting the property with the property manager whenever possible. If the manager isn't available, take photos of the rental to record its condition.
• Did your group have a excellent time? Many rental management companies make it easy for travelers to provide reviews. If your rental and/or property manager was terrific, they will likely appreciate your kind words. If anything was amiss and they failed to correct it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make a note as part of your review.
