Corolla vacation rental booking tips:

When to visit Corolla & When to book:

• In the Currituck area, The earlier you can book a vacation rental, the easier your search will be. The most desirable rental homes are booked early. Booking your vacation rental six to twelve months before your vacation is recommended. Holiday gatherings are excellent times to search for and reserve your rental property.
• Book your vacation in 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 reserve larger homes, or to book a beach front vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable during the high season.
• Some hosts and property managers offer discounts or promotional rates for veterans. Remember to ask your property manager if special offers are available for your group before you book.
• Property managers often offer their guests an option to add trip insurance. Trip insurance, which will generally cost anywhere between 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed days as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance might be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for more information.
• Often, management companies supply Currituck area travel guide magazines which include coupons, 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 area magazine and coupon books at local shops and grocery stores.

Use filters to narrow your rental search:

• Select a group lead, choose your vacation week, and choose a maximum budget.
• Determine how many beds and the bed configuration your group needs. Oceanfront views;one lot from ocean;3 Pools;Spa;Whirlpools;Tennis;965 Acre Park has 8 bedrooms and 7 bathrooms.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts is often available on booking pages. If they are not listed, call the host before you book the rental. Remember that most listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which usually includes sofa beds and bunks.
• If your family is traveling with pets, you'll need to search for a pet-friendly property. Ask for specifics on breed, size, and type restrictions. Be aware that some hosts require additional pet deposits and fees.
• Visiting for a single event or attraction? If so, use a map search to find nearby properties.
• Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for the less-mobile. Confirm all required amenities are included before reserving a rental.

Tips for your stay:

• Get the owner's phone number and arrival/departure procedures for your rental property. Put the host's information in your smartphone.
• Hosts are there to help! Feel free to ask questions during your stay.
• Protect the rental owner (and your stuff!) by locking the property while you are gone, just like you would at home.
• Upon arrival, note any issues with the rental property and immediately contact the owner. Record all coorespondence.
• Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking regulations can make a stay more pleasurable. You will enhance your chance to make some new local friends, and resident neighbors are a great source for finding the best local spots.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Locals can frequently help. Who better to ask where to go for the best drinks, have a great night out, or the best spots for bird watching?
• Don't leave anything behind! Before departing, walk through the property to make sure you've collected all personal belongings. Re-check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden belongings. Clean the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Document the condition of the property at check-out. We recommend taking a video during your final walk-through.
• Remember to leave feedback! Property managers rely on good ratings to stimulate new bookings. They'll be grateful for your feedback. Alternatively, if something went wrong, other vacationing families will appreciate that you share your experience and help them have the best future vacation. Be fair with your review. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the property manager had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded quickly to solve it.
