Tips for getting the best Corolla rental experience:

How to get the best rental home value:

• Book your rental as early as possible. Rental schedules often open twelve months in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many families book their Summer rental homes during Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years Eve get-togethers. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Summer time is high season in the Currituck area. Book your vacation home in Fall or Spring to get the benefit of warm weather while saving money and avoiding crowds.
• Some hosts offer discounts or promotional rates for veterans. Ask your property manager if special offers are available for your group.
• Booking websites frequently offer guests an option to buy vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which usually will cost anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed time as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance can be a a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for more information.
• Find a copy of your local visitors guide when you check-in. If your rental property doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local shops and fuel stations. In addition to great articles, visitor guides contain offers and deals for nearby restaurants, attractions, and tours.

Use filters to narrow your search:

• Begin by choosing your potential vacation weeks and a maximum budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and what type of bedroom configuration you need. Walk to Beach & Corolla Light Resort Perks has 6 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our Currituck rental home search.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts & types is normally available online. Otherwise, email or call the property owner before you reserve your home. Note that most listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which typically includes sofa beds.
• If your group is traveling with pets, search for a pet-friendly vacation rental. Get specifics on breed, size, and type requirements. Be aware that some property managers charge additional pet fees.
• Visiting for a specific attraction? Use a map search to find nearby rentals.
• Proper accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for persons with disabilities. Confirm all required amenities are included before reserving a rental.

Considerations for your stay:

• Review check in & check out procedures before traveling. Add a note with the directions to your smartphone, and take a printed copy.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a garage door opener, A/V setup or thermostat. Contact your property manager. They are there to help! A brief call prevents quite a few problems.
• Lock your rental home while you are away. Keep your property safe!
• Make a record of any issues with the rental during check in, and immediately e-mail them to the property manager. We especially recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain built-in time stamps that can be beneficial if a dispute is filed.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like troublesome visitors disrupting your peaceful home. Use the golden rule for best judgement. If they like you, locals might even recommend great local food and scenic spots you would've not otherwise known!
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Locals can often point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to go for the best drinks, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for shopping?
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before departing, walk through the rental to make sure you've collected all belongings. Remember to check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden items. Clean the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Go through the rental a final time and scan for any damage. We recommend 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 photographs of the rental to record its condition.
• After your trip, leave feedback! Property managers rely on good feedback to inspire new bookings. They'll be thankful for your feedback. Alternatively, if something wasn't as described, other vacationing families will appreciate that you share your experience and help them have the best future vacation. Please be fair with your feedback If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the host could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded reasonably to solve it.
