Tips and Tricks for getting the perfect Carova vacation property experience:

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

• Book your rental as early as possible. Rental schedules usually become available twelve months in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many families reserve their Summer rental homes during Christmas and Thanksgiving gatherings. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• June, July, and August are the most expensive months in the Currituck area. Booking in the Fall or Spring shoulder seasons is a good way to save on your vacation rental. Rates are lower, and you'll find a better selection of acceptable homes.
• Hosts sometimes offer special rates for veterans and active duty military. Make sure to check with your host or property manager to see if special discounts are available for your family.
• Booking websites often offer their guests an option to add trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which commonly costs 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed time as a result of medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as evacuation costs or charges, such as an unanticipated hotel or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance can be a a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for additional information.
• Often, property 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 grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers.

Selecting the best rental in Carova:

• First, have your group select date ranges and a max budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and the configuration your family needs. Oceanside home w\/ pool & hot tub on the beautiful 4x4 beaches of Carova! has 5 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed types is often available on booking pages. If not, contact the property management company before you reserve your rental. Note that most listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which typically includes pull-out couches. You will need to establish what bed configuration is right for your family.
• If your group is vacationing with pets, you must reserve a rental that allows animals. Request details on breed, weight, and type restrictions. Often, property managers charge additional pet fees.
• If there's a particular Currituck beach you love, look for homes that are either nearby, or those that cater especially to your desires.
• Proper accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for guests with disabilities. Remember to confirm all necessary amenities are available before booking

More tips for your stay:

• Add the property manager's contact information to your smartphone. Take a copy of arrival/departure procedures.
• Property managers are great sources of help! Feel free to ask any questions during your stay.
• Ensure you protect the rental owner (and your stuff!) by locking the rental while you are gone, just like you would at home.
• Upon check-in, make note of any issues with the property and immediately contact the property manager. Keep records of all coorespondence.
• Respecting quiet hours and parking rules can make a stay significantly more pleasurable. You will enhance your chance to make local friends, and resident neighbors are a terrific resource to find the best local beaches.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Locals can often help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to go for the best drinks, have a great night out, or the best spots for fishing?
• Upon check-out, complete a final walk-through to confirm you did not forget anything. Re-check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden treasure. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Walk through the rental a final time and keep an eye out for any damage. We recommend inspecting the property with the property manager whenever you can. If the manager isn't available, ensure that you take photos and video of the rental to record its condition.
• Leave a review! Hosts rely on excellent ratings to drive future bookings. They'll be grateful for your review. Alternatively, if something wasn't as described, 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 fix it.
