Tips and Tricks to get the very best Currituck rental home experience:

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

• To get the best value, consider shifting your group's vacation to the Spring or Fall seasons. May, September, and even October offer pleasant weather, fewer crowds, and greatly reduced traffic. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, or to reserve a beach front vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable during the Summer.
• The sooner your group can reserve a vacation home, the better your selection will be. The most desirable properties are reserved early. Reserving your rental up to 12 months before your vacation dates is recommended. Holiday gatherings are excellent times to search for and book your rental.
• Some hosts offer rate reductions for veterans. Make sure to check with your host or property manager to see if special offers are available for your family before you book.
• Property managers usually offer customers an option to purchase vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which normally costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed time as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel stay or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance can be a a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for details.
• Look for your local Currituck area magazine when you check-in. If your rental property doesn't have one, you can find them at local shops and fuel stations. In addition to great articles, visitors guide magazines contain money saving offers on nearby tours and attractions.

Filter your search:

• Choose vacation week and budget.
• Decide how many bedrooms and what type of bedroom configuration your family needs. BRAND NEW! Whalehead Beach Mediterranean Inspired Villa has 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our Currituck vacation rental search.
• Precise information regarding bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is usually available on booking websites. If they are not listed, call the host before reserving your home. Note that most listings specify maximum guest capacity, which usually includes pull out couches in living rooms.
• Visiting for a single attraction? Try a map search to locate nearby rentals.
• Appropriate accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for those with limited mobility. Make certain to inquire about specialized equipment and wheel chair accessibility.
• Traveling with pets? 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. Remember to ask the property manager before booking, and study your rental agreement! Additional pet fees or costs may be applied to your agreement.

Advice for a smooth stay:

• Get the host's contact number and arrival/departure procedures for your rental home. We recommend storing the manager's information in your smartphone.
• To ensure that damages aren't attributed to your stay, inspect for any problem areas upon your arrival. Make contact with the rental manager immediately to report your findings. If there is a dispute about legal responsibility later, having the recorded concerns and contact attempts will be helpful.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a hot tub, A/V setup or kitchen appliance. Contact your host. They are there to help! A brief telephone call can prevent many problems.
• Respect the neighborhood. Often times, surrounding homes are occupied by local residents. Respecting noise limits and parking rules can make a stay significantly more pleasurable.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Residents can typically help. Who better to ask where to book the best tours, have a great night out, or the best spots for fine dining?
• Keep your rental home locked while you're gone! Don't let crooks spoil your vacation.
• Re-check every room of the rental property to confirm that you've packed all personal items at departure. Check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden items. Clean out the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Please make sure to walk through the property a final time and keep an eye out for any damage. We suggest inspecting the property with the property manager whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the property manager isn't available, ensure that you take pictures of the property to record its condition at check-out.
• Did your family have a terrific time? Many vacation rental websites make it easy for vacationers to provide feedback. If your rental property and/or property management company was fantastic, they would love to hear it. If anything was inoperable and they failed to address it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make a note as part of your review.
