Our top Rental property booking tips and tricks:

When to book & When to go:

• In the Currituck area, The earlier you can book, the better your selection will be. The most desirable vacation homes are booked early. Booking your rental home six to twelve months before your vacation is recommended. Winter holidays are excellent times to plan and book your rental.
• Summer is the most expensive season in coastal NC. To find the largest vacation home within your budget, we strongly suggest reserving in Spring or Fall. You'll benefit from lower rates, better selection, beautiful weather and the absence of large crowds at Currituck restaurants, beaches, and activities. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Currituck vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday near the ocean? Thanksgiving and Christmas are great times to gather with loved ones at your favorite beach.
• Some property managers offer rate reductions for active duty military and veterans. It's always a good idea to check with your host or property manager to see if special offers are available for your family.
• Booking websites typically offer customers an option to buy trip insurance. Trip insurance, which commonly costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed time as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as ensuing additional evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel stay or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for program terms and fees.
• Often, property management companies supply Currituck area visitors guide magazines which often include money-saving deals, either offered independently by local businesses, or by way of a partnership between the property management company and the business itself. You can also find Currituck visitors guide magazine and coupon books at local shops and grocery stores.

• Determine how many bedrooms and the configuration your group needs. 1242 Nautical Nook * 2 Min Walk to Beach has 5 bedrooms and 7 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our Currituck rentals search.
• Precise details about bedrooms and bed counts & types is commonly accessible online. Otherwise, contact the property manager before you reserve the home. Note that most property listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which often includes pull-out couches and bunk beds. You will need to work out what is best for your group.
• If your group is traveling with pets, you must book a pet-friendly property. Get details on breed, weight, and type restrictions. Often, hosts charge additional pet fees.
• If there's a particular Currituck attraction you simply love, browse properties that are either close by, or those that cater especially to your requirements.
• Suitable accessibility can make or break a vacation for persons with disabilities. Confirm all necessary amenities are available before reserving a rental.

Have a wonderful stay:

• Put the owner's contact information in your smartphone.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a garage door opener, television set or thermostat. Contact your owner. They are there to help! A brief telephone call can prevent a lot of concerns.
• Keep your rental home locked while you are gone! Don't let thieves ruin your trip.
• Note any damages to the property at check in, and immediately e-mail them to the host. We especially recommend e-mails and text messages, as they usually contain built-in time stamps that are helpful if a dispute is filed.
• Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking restrictions can make a stay more pleasurable. You will increase your chance to make some new local friends, and resident neighbors can be a terrific source for finding the best local spots.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Local residents can often help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to find the best bike paths, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for BBQ?
• Re-check every room of the vacation property to confirm that you've packed all of your belongings at check-out. Check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden items. Clean out the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Leave a review! Property owners rely on excellent ratings to propel future bookings. They'll be thankful for your review. Alternatively, if something went wrong, other families will appreciate that you share your experience and help them have the best future vacation. Remember to be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the manager had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded reasonably to solve it.
