Tips to get the optimal vacation rental experience:

When to visit & When to reserve a rental home:

• In the Currituck area, The sooner you can book a vacation rental, the easier your search will be. The most desirable properties are reserved very early. Reserving your vacation home up to 12 months before your travel dates is recommended. Christmas, Thanksgiving and New Years Eve are excellent times to plan and book your vacation rental.
• Summer is the most expensive season in coastal NC. To find the best value, change your vacation dates to the Spring or Fall seasons. May, September, and October offer great weather, less crowded beaches, and reduced traffic.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property manager or host if your group qualifies for a price reduction or discount.
• Property management companies usually offer guests an option to purchase trip insurance. Trip insurance, which costs 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed vacation time as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for program terms and fees.
• Look for your local Currituck visitors guide magazine upon checking in. If your rental home doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local grocery stores and visitor centers. In addition to great information, travel guides contain deals for local attractions, tours, restaurants, and shops.

Filter your search:

• Choose a group leader, choose your dates, and select a budget.
• Decide how many bedrooms and what type of bedroom configuration your group needs. A Ruff Life: Saltwater Pool, 500ft. to the Beach has 5 bedrooms and 6 bathrooms.
• Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts is regularly available on booking pages. If you don't see them listed, reach out to the property management company before booking the home. Note that most property listings specify the max. guest capacity, which frequently includes pull-out couches.
• If your family is bringing pets, you'll need to book a property that allows animals. Request specifics on breed, weight, and type requirements. Note that some hosts charge pet deposits and fees.
• If there's a certain Currituck attraction you crave, keep an eye out for properties that are either near by, or those that cater especially to your needs.
• Appropriate accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for those with limited mobility. Remember to confirm all required amenities are included before booking

Tips for a great stay:

• Add the host's contact info to your smartphone. Understand and take a copy of check in/check out procedures.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a garage door opener, elevator or thermostat. Contact your owner. They are there to help! A brief text message can prevent quite a few problems.
• Keep the property locked while you are away! Don't let burglars ruin your holiday.
• To ensure that damages aren't linked to your visit, make note of any problem areas when you arrive. Contact the host right away to relay any pre-existing damages. If there is a dispute about legal responsibility later, having a record of concerns and contact attempts will be very helpful.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like obnoxious vacationers disrupting your peaceful home. Apply the golden rule for common sense. Happy residents may even recommend great local food and scenic spots you would have not otherwise known!
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Local residents can typically help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to book the best tours, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for shopping?
• When it's time to leave, take a final walk-through to confirm you didn't leave anything behind. Check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden belongings. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Walk through the rental a final time and look for any damage. We advise walking through with the property manager whenever you can. If the property manager is not available, take photographs of the rental to record its condition at check-out.
• Did your group have a great time? Most vacation rental websites make it easy for travelers to provide feedback. If your rental and/or property manager was terrific, they always love to hear your praise. If anything was wrong and they failed to correct it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make a note as part of your review.
