Tips and Tricks to get the optimal vacation rental experience:

Money saving strategies:

• To get the best value, change your trip dates to the Spring or Fall months. May, September, and October offer warm temperatures, less crowded beaches, and greatly reduced traffic. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Currituck vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday near the ocean? Christmas, Thanksgiving, and New Years Eve are great times to gather with friends and family at your favorite beach.
• Reserve your vacation home as early as possible. Rental schedules generally open a year in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many families book their Summer rental homes during holiday get-togethers. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Property management companies sometimes offer promotional rates for active duty military and veterans. Ask your property manager if discounts are available for your family.
• Property managers frequently offer renters an option to add trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which will generally cost anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed days as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance can be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for more information.
• Find a copy of your local visitors guide when you check-in. If your rental home doesn't have one, you can find them at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers. In addition to great local articles, visitor guide magazines have coupons for local accommodations and attractions.

Narrow your rental Search:

• To start, have your family commit to dates and a max budget.
• Hot Tub
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts is almost always accessible on booking pages. If you don't see them listed, call the property owner before you reserve the vacation home. Remember that most property listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which usually includes pull out couches in living rooms. You will need to determine what is optimal for your vacation family.
• If there's a particular Currituck destination you are crazy about, look for rentals that are either nearby, or those that cater to your desires.
• Suitable accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for guests that require the use of a wheelchair. Remember to confirm all necessary amenities are available before reserving a rental
• Are you traveling with furry, four-legged family members? Although a number of vacation homes allow pets or animals, guidelines and costs vary per property. Type of pet, size and breeds may be limited. Ask your property manager before booking, and study your rental agreement! Extra fees or charges could be applied to your agreement.

More considerations:

• Put the host's contact information in your smartphone and wallet.
• Upon check-in, document any damages to the property and immediately alert the owner. Record all coorespondence.
• Hosts are available to help! Feel free to ask questions during your stay.
• Respecting quiet hours and parking rules can make a stay more pleasurable. Be a good neighbor. You will magnify your chance to make local friends, and resident neighbors are usually a fantastic source for finding the best local restaurants, beaches, and hangouts.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Neighbors can typically help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to launch your kayaks, have a great night out, or the best spots for crabbing?
• Lock your rental home while you are out and about. Protect your property!
• Re-check the vacation property to make sure that you've packed all personal items at check-out. Re-check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden treasure. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Please make sure to walk through the property a final time and scan for any damage. We advise walking through with the host whenever possible. If the host isn't available, take pictures of the property to record its condition.
• Did your group have a wonderful time? Most rental home management companies make it easy for customers to provide reviews. If your property and/or property management company was wonderful, they will likely appreciate your kind words. If anything was wrong and they failed to correct it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make a note as part of your feedback.
