Tips for getting the perfect Corolla rental experience:

When to book a Currituck rental & When to go:

• In the Currituck area, The earlier your group can reserve a vacation rental, the easier your search will be. The best rental properties are booked very early. Reserving your vacation property up to twelve months before your vacation is recommended. Holidays such as Christmas and Thanksgiving are excellent times to plan and reserve your vacation home.
• To book the largest rental within your budget, we suggest reserving in the Fall or Spring shoulder seasons. You'll enjoy lower rates, greater selection, gorgeous weather and the absence of giant crowds at popular Currituck attractions and restaurants.
• Hosts sometimes offer promotional rates for veterans and active duty military. Check with your host or property manager to see if discounts are available for your family before you book.
• Property managers typically offer guests an option to purchase vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which costs 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed days as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as evacuation costs or charges, such as an unanticipated hotel or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance can be a a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for program terms and fees.
• Often, management companies and vacation rental houses supply Currituck area visitors guides which include special deals, either offered directly by local businesses, or through a relationship between the property management company and the business itself. You can also find Currituck visitors guide and coupon books at local gas stations and shopping centers.

Finding the perfect rental in Corolla:

• Choose a group leader, select your trip dates, and select a maximum budget.
• Note the number bedrooms and the configuration your family requires. 1302 Castaway * 5 Min Walk to Beach * Pool has 6 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our Currituck rental home search.
• Precise information regarding bedrooms and bed types is generally available on booking websites. If you don't see them listed, contact the property manager before you reserve your home. Remember that most listings specify maximum guest capacity, which frequently includes pull-out couches.
• Do your family pets travel with you? 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 rental agreement! Pet fees or costs could be applied to your contract.
• Visiting for a specific event? If so, use a map search to locate nearby properties.
• Suitable accessibility can make or break a vacation for persons with disabilities. Confirm all required amenities are available before booking.

More tips for your stay:

• Review arrival and departure procedures before traveling. Take a printed copy, and save the directions to your phone.
• Property managers are great sources of help! Feel free to ask questions during your stay.
• Keep the property locked while you are away! Don't let crooks spoil your holiday.
• Document any issues with the property upon arrival, and immediately send them to the owner. We specifically recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain time stamps that can be helpful if damages are attributed to your stay.
• Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking regulations can make a stay significantly more pleasurable. Be a good neighbor. You'll increase your chance to make some new local friends, and resident neighbors are often an excellent source for finding the best local spots.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Residents can usually help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to find the best bike paths, have a great night out, or the best spots for fishing?
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before departing, take a walk through the property to make sure you've collected all of your things. Make sure to check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden items. Clean the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Go through the property a final time and look for any damage. We advise inspecting the property with the property manager whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the property manager isn't available, ensure that you take video of the property to record its condition at check-out.
• Did your group have a fantastic stay? Many rental managers make it easy for travelers to provide reviews. If your rental and/or property management company was great, they would love to hear it. If anything was wrong and they failed to address it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make it a point as part of your review.
