Hello, everybody! It's been awhile since we've posted, but I'm happy to report that John and I are still here, not only surviving but also thriving, and will be celebrating five years at our beloved Sunrise Over Salvo in a few months.

Except for the first four months of the pandemic, we have remained open to all, and have welcomed guests from all over the world and most of North America. We instituted new cleaning routines and removed those heavy bedspreads from our beds, replacing them with cotton blankets that we wash between every guest. Our pool and hot tub remain clean and open.

About 2-3 months ago, Airbnb changed its search algorithm, and since then, we've noticed a drop off in our bookings, as have many of our fellow SuperHosts. We're more or less booked for June and July, but we are almost completely open for August, and we would love to see YOU! Take a look at your calendar, then click on over to Airbnb and make a reservation. You'll be glad you did!

It was just a little project.....

About 14 years ago, John decided to write an accurate and highly detailed book on the history of the Cape Hatteras Lighthouse. He and Aida drove from Raleigh to the Outer Banks three or four times a year, staying with friends and in miscellaneous hotels and B&Bs while poring through archives, interviewing people with great memories, and tramping carefully around cemeteries. Aida cheerfully tolerated John’s obsession with “the other woman in our marriage,” and then herself fell under the spell of solving various lighthouse mysteries. When retirement loomed on the horizon for John, Aida said, “Why don’t we sell our Raleigh home and move to Hatteras Island, where you can be close to your love?”

John agreed, and the search for a house was on. After obsessive searching for two years (and a long saga involving the sale of their Raleigh home), Aida and John found a house that met their needs (ocean view, rock bottom price, spacious), but was twice as big as they needed. Aida had another idea. “Let’s start an Airbnb!”

And the rest, as they say, is Hatteras! Or history! Or Hatteras history!
