Tricks and tips to get the best vacation rental experience:

When to go & When to reserve a Corolla rental home:

• In the Currituck area, The sooner you can book, the better your selection will be. The best properties are booked early. Reserving your rental 6-12 months before your travel dates is recommended. Winter holidays are excellent times to plan and book your rental.
• Reserving a rental home in Fall or Spring months is our best tip for saving money on your vacation rental. Rental rates are lower, and you'll find a better selection of desirable homes. Many vacationers use this method to find larger homes within budget, or to reserve a beach front rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during June, July, and August. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Currituck vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation near the ocean? Christmas, Thanksgiving, and New Years Eve are great times to gather with family and friends at the beach.
• Property management companies sometimes offer discounts or promotional rates for veterans. Make sure to check with your host or property manager to see if special discounts are available for your family.
• Property managers frequently offer their guests an option to obtain vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which usually will cost you between 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed time as a result of medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance might be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for specifics.
• Often, property management companies supply Currituck area visitor guide magazines which include coupons, either offered independently by local companies, or through a relationship between the management company and the business itself. You can also find Currituck visitors guide magazine and coupon books at local shops and grocery stores.

Selecting the perfect rental in Corolla:

• Decide how many bedrooms and the bed configuration your family requires. Meant To Be Your Home Away from Home 5 BR, 4.5 BA Pool Hot Tub Walk to 4X4 Beach has 5 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our Currituck rental home search.
• Specific information about bedrooms and bed types is almost always accessible on booking pages. Otherwise, email or call the host before you reserve your rental. Remember that most listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which frequently includes sofa beds. You will need to establish what configuration is right for your trip.
• Some properties allow pets, but others do not. Acceptable types of dog or cat, weight and breeds may be restricted, and additional fees may apply. Ask the owner about allowable breeds and types before booking.
• Are you visiting for a specific attraction or event? Try a map search to locate nearby rentals.
• Appropriate accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for guests that require the use of a wheelchair. Confirm all necessary amenities are available and included before reserving a rental.

Know before you go:

• Add the property manager's contact information to your phone. Take a copy of check in/check out procedures.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a hot tub, A/V setup or appliance. Contact your owner. They are there to help! A brief call prevents quite a few issues.
• Lock your vacation home while you're away. Protect your property!
• To make certain damages aren't linked to your family's visit, record any problem areas during arrival. Contact the host right away to report your findings. If there is a dispute about who is responsible, having a record of issues and contact attempts will be helpful.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like disagreeable visitors disrupting your peace. Use the golden rule for common sense. If they like you, locals might even recommend great beaches and places you would've never otherwise known!
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Local residents can often help. Who better to ask where to find the best seashells, have a great night out, or the best spots for bird watching?
• Re-check the vacation property to confirm that you've packed all belongings at departure. Remember to check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden treasure. Clean out the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Did your family have a fantastic vacation? Many rental websites make it easy for travelers to provide comments. If your property and/or property manager was great, they will likely appreciate your kind words. If anything was amiss and they failed to fix it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make a note as part of your review.
