The state of North Carolina is currently operating under a three-stage phase to lift the restrictions across our state to help stop the spread of COVID-19. Like other towns and cities across the nation, restaurants, bars, and non-essential shops are not open for normal business. Restaurants offer curbside pick-up and delivery, and some non-essential shops offer pickup for online and Facebook purchases. In the past 30+ days, Bluewater has worked hard to adjust our business practices to protect our guests, owners, and staff.

How this Vacation Might be Different

Our local stores are experiencing shortages just like other stores nationwide.It would be best to bring the following items with you:

• Toilet Paper and Paper Towels
• Cleaning supplies you might need during your stay
• Hand Sanitizer
• Personal Toiletries
• Non-perishable food from home you would like to enjoy on vacation like pasta noodles, pasta sauce, rice, etc.

 If you feel more comfortable with your own bedding, we invite you to bring your personal comforters, blankets, and pillows.

We have adjusted our business's operations to protect our most valuable assets - our guests, our owners, and our staff.

We have changed our check-in and check-out procedures to eliminate the foot traffic in our offices. We are offering keyed check-ins pickup outside of our offices. You will not need to leave your car when picking up your key packet. We have drop boxes at each office to drop your key packets off when you depart. Keyless check-ins will continue directly to your vacation rental property and bypass the office. Keyless check-ins will continue directly to your vacation rental, and use your keyless code to access your vacation rental property beginning at your check-in time.

We continue to provide bed linens and bath towels that have been laundered in our linen facility, and our staff continues to follow CDC guidelines.

Our housekeeping staff is taking extra precautions by assuring that each property is thoroughly cleaned and sanitized by using top-of-the-line cleaning supplies and following strict protocols to ensure all rental units are safe and clean. We are ensuring our staff stays well-informed and updated with any changes and follows all CDC guidelines.
