Rental booking tips:

Get the best rental home value:

• Reserve your Currituck vacation home in the Fall or Spring to get the benefit of beautiful weather while saving money and avoiding crowded roads, restaurants, and activities. Many vacationers use this method to find larger homes within budget, or to book an oceanfront rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during June, July, and August.
• The earlier your group can reserve a vacation home, the better your selection will be. The most desirable rental properties are booked early. Booking your rental 6-12 months before your vacation is recommended. Holiday gatherings are excellent times to plan and reserve your rental property.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property manager if your family qualifies for a special rate.
• Booking websites often offer customers an option to add vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which usually will cost you 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any days missed as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for details.
• Look for your local Currituck visitors guide when you check-in. If your rental property doesn't have one, you can find them at local grocery stores and visitor centers. In addition to great local articles, travel guides have money saving offers on nearby tours, shops, and attractions.

Use filters to search efficiently:

• Start by having your group decide on trip dates and a maximum budget.
• Determine how many beds and the bed configuration your family requires. C7369 Catching Rays: Oceanside Retreat with Pool, Hot Tub, Rec Room and more! has 7 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our Currituck vacation rental search.
• Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed types is usually accessible online. Otherwise, contact the property owner before reserving the vacation home. Remember that most properties list the max. guest capacity, which often includes sofa beds in living rooms. You will need to determine what configuration is best for your family.
• Are you visiting for a single event? If so, use a map search to locate nearby rentals.
• Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for persons with a disability. Make certain to ask about specialized equipment and wheel chair accessibility.
• Some properties allow pets, and others don't. Allowable types of pet, size and breeds may be restricted, and added fees may apply. Ask your host about pets before booking.

More considerations for your visit:

• Be sure you get the owner's contact number and entry/exit procedures for your rental property. Store the manager's contact information in your smartphone and wallet.
• Upon check-in, note any damages to the rental property and immediately alert the owner. Record all correspondence in case a dispute arises.
• Hosts are there to help! Feel free to ask any questions during your stay.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like unpleasant visitors bothering your peace and quiet. Apply the golden rule for common sense. Happy residents may even recommend great beaches and attractions you would have never otherwise known about!
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Local residents can frequently help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to order delicious takeout, have a great night out, or the best spots for crabbing?
• Protect the rental owner (and your things!) by locking the property while you are gone, just like you would at home.
• Just before checking out, take a walk-through to make sure you did not leave anything behind. Check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden treasure. Clean out the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Inspect the property a final time and keep an eye out for any damage. We suggest inspecting the property with the host whenever possible. If the property manager isn't available, ensure that you take photos and video of the property to record its condition at check-out.
• Remember to leave a review! Property owners rely on good ratings to compel new bookings. They'll be thankful for your feedback. Alternatively, if something went awry, other families will will be grateful for your feedback and help them have the best future vacation. Remember to be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the owner had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded quickly to remedy it.
