Tips to get the best Currituck rental experience:

Getting the most from your vacation rental budget:

• June, July, and August are the most expensive months in the Currituck area. Booking in the Fall or Spring is a good way to save on your vacation rental. Rental rates are lower, and you'll find a larger selection of suitable homes. Many vacationers use this strategy to find larger homes within budget, or to reserve an oceanfront rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during the Summer months.
• Book your vacation home as early as possible. Rental schedules often open twelve months in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many groups reserve their Summer rentals during Thanksgiving and Christmas gatherings. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Hosts and Property managers sometimes offer discounts or promotional rates for veterans. Check with your property manager to see if special offers are available for your group.
• Management companies and individual rental owners often offer renters an option to obtain vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which commonly will cost you 1% - 5% of the base stay 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, such as an unanticipated hotel or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance might be a a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for more information.
• Look for your local Currituck area magazine when you arrive at the rental property. If your rental doesn't have one, you can find them at local shops and fuel stations. In addition to great local information, visitor guides have offers and deals for nearby tours and attractions.

How to choose and book the best Currituck rental:

• Choose your vacation week and max budget.
• Decide how many bedrooms and what type of bedroom configuration your group needs. 1625 Drift-Woods *9 Min Walk to Beach has 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms.
• Specific information regarding bedrooms and bed counts & types is usually accessible on booking websites. If not, contact the property owner before reserving the vacation property. Remember that most listings specify maximum guest capacity, which usually includes sofa beds. You'll need to work out what is right for your vacation.
• If there's a particular Currituck attraction you crave, search for properties that are either nearby, or those that cater especially to your requirements.
• Proper accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for the less-mobile. .
• Some rental properties allow pets, and some do not. Acceptable types of pet, weight and breeds may be restricted, and additional fees may apply. Ask the property manager about allowable breeds and types before booking.

• Upon arrival, make note of any issues with the property and immediately contact the host. Record all coorespondence.
• Property managers are there to help! Feel free to ask any questions during your stay.
• Be respectful. Often times, nearby homes are occupied by local residents. Respecting noise limits and parking regulations is the right thing to do.

• Keep your rental home locked while you are away! Don't let burglars ruin your trip.
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before you drive away, take a walk through the rental to confirm you've collected all personal items. Make sure to check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden belongings. Clean out the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Please make sure to walk through the rental a final time and scan for any damage. We recommend inspecting the property with the property manager whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the property manager isn't available, remember to take photos of the rental to record its condition at check-out.
• Remember to leave a review! Hosts rely on good feedback to inspire new reservations. They'll be grateful for your feedback. Alternatively, if something wasn't as described, other vacationers will appreciate that you share your feedback find their best vacation rental. Please be fair with your feedback If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the property manager had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded reasonably to solve it.
