Corolla vacation rental booking tips:

Cost saving strategies:

• June, July, and August are the most expensive months in Corolla. To find the best rental within your budget, we recommend booking in Fall or Spring months. You'll enjoy lower rental rates, better selection, gorgeous weather and the absence of giant crowds at the beach and popular attractions.
• The earlier your group can book, the better your selection will be. The best vacation homes are reserved early. Reserving your vacation rental up to twelve months before your vacation dates is recommended. Christmas, Thanksgiving and New Years Eve are excellent times to search for and book your vacation home.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property manager or host whether your vacationing group qualifies for a special rate.
• Management companies and individual rental owners often offer customers an option to purchase vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which will generally cost anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for days missed as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel stay or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for specifics.
• Many property management companies supply Currituck area travel guides that include special offers, either offered independently by local businesses, or by way of a partnership between the management company and the business itself. You can also find Currituck visitors guide magazine and coupon books at local gas stations and shopping centers.

Finding the best vacation rental in the Currituck area:

• Choose vacation dates and budget.
• Decide how many beds and the bed configuration you need. Soundside, Community Amenities, Sun Decks, 327, Footprints by the Sound has 5 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms.
• Precise details about bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is generally accessible online. Otherwise, reach out to the property manager before you book your rental. Note that most property listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which often includes sofa beds and bunks.
• If there's an individual Currituck destination you are crazy about, look for homes that are either near by, or those that cater especially to your needs.
• Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for those with limited mobility. Make certain to ask about wheel chair entry, pool lifts and specialized equipment needs.
• If your family is traveling with pets, you'll need to find a rental that allows animals. Get details on breed, weight, and type requirements. Usually, property owners charge pet deposits and fees.

More considerations for your visit:

• Review check in & check out procedures before leaving home. Save the instructions to your smartphone, and take a printed copy.
• Upon check-in, document any issues with the rental property and immediately alert the host. Keep records of all correspondence in case a dispute arises.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a fireplace, A/V setup or washer/dryer. Contact your owner. They are there to help! A brief telephone call can prevent quite a few problems.
• Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking rules can make a stay significantly more pleasurable. You will magnify your chance to make local friends, and resident neighbors can be an incredible source for finding the best local restaurants, beaches, and hangouts.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Locals can frequently help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to spend a rainy day, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fine dining?
• Protect the owner (and your things!) by locking the property when you are gone, just like you would at home.
• Just before checking out, complete a final walk-through to make sure you didn't forget anything. Check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden items. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Inspect the rental one final time and look for damage. We suggest walking through with the property manager whenever you can. If the property manager is not available, ensure that you take photographs of the property to record its condition.
• Leave a review! Property managers rely on excellent reviews to compel new reservations. They'll be grateful for your feedback. Alternatively, if something went wrong, other vacationing families will will be grateful for your experience and help them have the best future vacation. Be fair with your review. 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.
