Tips for getting the perfect vacation home experience:

Sticking to your rental budget:

• In the Currituck area, The earlier you can book, the better your selection will be. The best properties are reserved very early. Booking your rental home six - twelve months before your travel dates is recommended. Holidays such as Christmas and Thanksgiving are excellent times to plan and reserve your rental property.
• Summertime is the most expensive season along the coast of NC. Reserving a rental home in the Fall or Spring shoulder seasons is a great way to save on your rental home. Rental rates are lower, and you'll find a better selection of acceptable properties.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property owner if your family qualifies for a price reduction.
• Booking websites typically offer customers an option to purchase vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which normally will cost you anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any days missed as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional evacuation costs or charges, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for additional information.
• Often, rental management companies and vacation rental houses supply Currituck area visitor guides which will include coupons, either offered directly by local businesses, or through a relationship between the property management company and the business itself. You can also find Currituck area magazine and coupon books at local shops and grocery stores.

How to choose and book the right Currituck rental:

• Select a group lead, choose your trip dates, and select a max budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and the bed configuration you need. 1661 Crown Jewel *Dog Friendly*GameRm*Theater*Pool has 6 bedrooms and 7 bathrooms.
• Specific information regarding bedrooms and bed types is commonly available on booking websites. Otherwise, call the property manager before booking your rental. Remember that most properties list the max. guest capacity, which frequently includes sofa beds.
• Some rental properties allow pets, but some don't. Acceptable types of pet, size and breeds may be restricted, and additional charges may apply. Ask your host about your furry family members before booking.
• Visiting for a specific event? Try a map search to find nearby rentals.
• Proper accessibility can make or break a vacation for persons with a disability. .

Advice for a fantastic stay:

• Add the host's contact info to your smartphone. Understand and take a copy of arrival/departure procedures.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a garage door opener, stereo or coffee maker. Contact your property manager. They are there to help! A brief call prevents lots of concerns.
• Protect the rental owner (and your things!) by locking the rental when you are away, just like you would at home.
• To make certain that damages are not attributed to your visit, make note of any problem areas during check in. Make contact with the property manager immediately to report any pre-existing damages. If there is a dispute about who is responsible, having the recorded concerns and contact attempts will be useful.
• Respect the neighborhood. Frequently, nearby homes are occupied by permanent residents. Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking rules can make a stay significantly more pleasurable.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Locals can frequently help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to get the best seafood, have a great night out, or the best spots for fine dining?
• Don't leave anything behind! Before you drive away, walk through the rental to confirm you've collected all belongings. Remember to check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden treasure. Clean out the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Document the condition of the property at check-out. We recommend taking a video during your final walk-through.
• Did your family have a terrific stay? Many rental websites make it easy for clients to provide feedback. If your rental and/or host was fantastic, they will likely appreciate your kind words. If anything was out of order and they failed to correct it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make a note as part of your feedback.
