Tricks and tips to get the best vacation rental experience:

Cost saving strategies:

• Reserve your vacation rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules often become available twelve months in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many families reserve their Summer rental homes during Winter holiday gatherings. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• To get the most suitable vacation home within budget, we highly recommend reserving in Fall or Spring. You'll enjoy lower rental rates, greater selection, warm weather and the absence of giant crowds at the beach and popular Currituck attractions. Many vacationers use this strategy to find larger homes within budget, or to book an oceanfront vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable during the Summer months. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Currituck vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation on the coast? Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with friends and family at the beach.
• Hosts and Property managers sometimes offer promotional rates for veterans. Remember to ask your property manager if discounts are available for your family.
• Property managers usually offer guests an option to add vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which will generally cost anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed days as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance might be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for details.
• Often, property management companies and vacation rental houses supply Currituck area visitors guide magazines that include money-saving offers, either offered independently by local businesses, or through a partnership between the property management company and the business itself. You can also find visitors guide and coupon books at local shops and grocery stores.

Planning and picking the right Currituck rental:

• Select vacation dates and budget.
• Decide how many bedrooms and the configuration your family requires. 1227 Seven Shells * Oceanfront has 5 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts is regularly available on booking pages. If not, email or call the host before you reserve your rental. Remember that most properties list the maximum guest capacity, which oftentimes includes pull out couches in living rooms. You'll need to work out what configuration is optimal for your group.
• If your group is vacationing with pets, you must reserve a pet-friendly property. Make sure to ask for details on breed, size, and type requirements. Often, property managers require additional pet deposits and fees.
• Visiting for a single event or attraction? Use a map search to find nearby rentals.
• Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for persons with disabilities. .

• Lock your rental while you're out and about. Keep your property safe!
• To make sure damages aren't attributed to your family's stay, inspect the rental for any problem areas during arrival. Get in touch with the property manager immediately to record any issues. If there is a dispute, having the recorded problems and contact attempts will be useful.
