How to book the best Corolla vacation rental experience:

Money saving strategies:

• In the Currituck area, The sooner your group can book a vacation rental, the better your selection will be. The most desirable rental homes are reserved very early. Reserving your rental home up to twelve months before your vacation is recommended. Christmas, Thanksgiving and New Years Eve are excellent times to search for and book your rental property.
• June, July, and August are the most expensive months in coastal NC. To find the best value, consider changing your family's Currituck trip dates to the Spring or Fall shoulder seasons. May, September, and even October offer excellent temperatures, less crowded beaches, and reduced traffic. Many vacationers use this method to find larger homes within budget, or to reserve a beach front rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during the Summer months. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Currituck vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation near the ocean? Thanksgiving and Christmas are great times to gather with family and friends at the beach.
• Some property management companies offer discounts for veterans and active duty military. Make sure to check with your property manager to see if rate reductions are available for your family.
• Management companies and individual rental owners usually offer guests an option to add trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which will generally cost 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 disasters, as well as ensuing additional evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance can be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for program terms and fees.
• Look for your local Currituck visitors guide magazine when you arrive at the rental property. If your rental doesn't have one, you can find them at local shops and visitor centers. In addition to great local information, travel guides contain discounts for nearby accommodations, tours and attractions.

Planning and choosing the perfect Currituck rental home:

• Choose a group leader, choose your trip dates, and select a maximum budget.
• 1470 ft to the beach
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is usually available online. If they are not listed, email or call the host before you reserve the vacation home. Remember that most property listings specify the max. guest capacity, which often includes sofa beds in living rooms. You will need to establish what bed configuration is optimal for your vacation group.
• Are you bringing the family pet? 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 your host before booking, and study your rental agreement! Pet fees or applied to your agreement.
• If there's a particular Currituck attraction you love, keep an eye out for rentals that are either close by, or those that cater to your requirements.
• Appropriate accessibility can make or break a vacation for persons with disabilities. .

Advice for a smooth stay:

• Review arrival and departure procedures before traveling. Take a printed copy, and save the instructions to your smartphone.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a fireplace, intercom or appliance. Contact your host. They are there to help! A brief call prevents a lot of difficulties.
• Lock your rental home while you are away. Protect your property!
• To make sure that damages aren't attributed to your stay, inspect the property for any problem areas upon your arrival. Make contact with the host immediately to record any issues. If there is a dispute, having a record of problems and contact attempts will be helpful.
• Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking rules can make a stay significantly more pleasurable. Be a good neighbor. You will magnify your chance to make local friends, and resident neighbors are usually a great source for finding the best local beaches and hangouts.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Local residents can typically help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to get the best seafood, have a great night out, or the best spots for shopping?
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before you drive away, walk through the rental to confirm you've collected all personal belongings. Make sure to check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden items. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Go through the rental a final time and keep an eye out for any damage. We advise inspecting the property with the host whenever possible. If the manager is not available, remember to take video of the property to record its condition at check-out.
• Did your group have a fantastic vacation? Many rental managers make it easy for customers to provide feedback. If your property and/or property management company was great, they always love to hear your praise. If anything was imperfect and they failed to address it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make a note as part of your comments.
