Tips and Tricks to get the best Currituck vacation rental experience:

When to visit & When to book:

• June, July, and August are high season in the Currituck area. Book your vacation home in Spring or Fall to get the benefit of gorgeous weather while saving money and avoiding crowds. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, or to book a beach front rental that would otherwise be unavailable during June, July, and August. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Currituck vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation near the ocean? Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with family and friends at the beach.
• The sooner your group can reserve a vacation rental, the easier your search will be. The most desirable rental homes are reserved very early. Booking your vacation property six to twelve months before your vacation is recommended. Winter holidays are excellent times to plan and book your rental.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property owner if your vacationing group qualifies for a reduced rate.
• Property management companies usually offer customers an option to obtain vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which normally costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed days as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as evacuation costs or charges, such as an unanticipated hotel or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance can be a a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for details.
• Often, management companies and vacation rental houses supply Currituck area visitor guides that include special deals, either offered directly by local businesses, or through a partnership between the rental management company and the business itself. You can also find Currituck area magazine and coupon books at local gas stations and shopping centers.

Planning and choosing the rightrental home:

• Select a group lead, choose your trip dates, and select a max budget.
• Pets OK has 5 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our rentals search.
• Specific information regarding bedrooms and bed counts & types is commonly available on booking websites. If not, email or call the host before booking the property. Note that most properties list the maximum guest capacity, which usually includes sofa beds and bunks. You will need to determine what is optimal for your vacation.
• Are you visiting for a specific attraction? Use a map search to find nearby properties.
• Suitable accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for the less-mobile. .
• Do your family pets travel with you? Many vacation homes allow animals, but guidelines and restrictions apply. Allowable pet type, breed, and size are often limited. Ask your property manager before booking, and study your agreement! Extra fees or charges could be applied to your contract.

Additional considerations:

• Get the property manager's phone number and check in/check out procedures for your rental property.
• Document any issues with the rental at check in, and immediately send them to the owner. We especially recommend e-mails and text messages, as they usually contain time stamps that are beneficial if damages are assessed.
• Hosts are there to help! Feel free to ask any questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking restrictions can make a stay more pleasurable. Be a good neighbor. You'll enhance your chance to make some new local friends, and resident neighbors are usually a terrific resource to find the best local restaurants, beaches, and hangouts.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Local residents can typically help. Who better to ask where to launch your kayaks, have a great night out, or the best spots for crabbing?
• Lock your rental home while you're out. Protect the owner's property and your things!
• At departure, take a final walk-through to make sure you have not forget any personal items. Check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden treasure. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Inspect the property one final time and scan for damages to contents or the property itself. We suggest walking through with the host whenever possible. If the property manager isn't available, take photos of the rental to record its condition.
• Did you have a great vacation? Many rental management companies make it easy for clients to provide comments. If your rental property and/or host was fantastic, they always love to hear your praise. If anything was wrong and they failed to fix it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make a note as part of your comments.
