The open deck and screened porch at Wishing Whale provides plenty of opportunity to appreciate Mother Nature's gifts. Sip your morning coffee while watching the sun rise.

How to get the best Corolla rental experience:

When to book a Currituck rental & When to go:

• The earlier you can book, the better your selection will be. The best rental properties are booked very early. Booking your rental property six to twelve months before your travel dates is recommended. Holidays such as Christmas and Thanksgiving are excellent times to search for and reserve your rental home.
• Summer months are the most expensive season in Corolla. Reserve your vacation in the Fall or Spring to enjoy warm weather while saving money and avoiding crowds. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, or to reserve an oceanfront vacation rental that would otherwise be unaffordable 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 and Christmas are great times to gather with loved ones at your favorite beach.
• Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property owner or host whether your family qualifies for a special rate.
• Property management companies usually offer renters an option to add trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which normally costs 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed trip time as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance might be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for additional information.
• Many management companies and vacation rental houses supply Currituck area visitor guide magazines which often include coupons, either offered directly by local companies, or by way of a relationship between the rental management company and the business itself. You can also find Currituck visitors guide and coupon books at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers.

Selecting the best vacation home:

• Begin by selecting your potential vacation weeks and a budget.
• Decide how many bedrooms and what type of bedroom configuration your family requires. Wishing Whale - Freshly Remodeled Home w\/ Hot Tub, Steps from the Beach has 5 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our Currituck rental home search.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is commonly available on booking websites. If not, call the property management company before you reserve your home. Remember that most listings specify the max. guest capacity, which typically includes pull-out couches and bunk beds.
• If your family is vacationing with pets, you'll need to find a rental that allows animals. Make sure to ask for specifics on breed, weight, and type restrictions. Usually, hosts charge additional pet fees.
• Are you looking for specific amenities? Most rental search websites include search filters for amenities. Amenity filters help you quickly remove less-optimal properties.
• Appropriate accessibility can make or break a vacation for guests with disabilities. Confirm all necessary amenities are available and included before booking.

During your stay:

• Be sure you get the owner's contact number and arrival/departure procedures for your . Put the host's information in your smartphone.
• Hosts are great sources of help! Don't be shy to ask questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Lock your rental home while you are out and about. Protect the owner's property and your things!
• To make certain that no damages are linked to your stay, record any problem areas during check in. Call the host immediately to record any damages. If there is a dispute about who is responsible, having a record of issues and contact attempts will be very helpful.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like unpleasant vacationers disrupting your peaceful neighborhood. Apply the golden rule for common sense. Happy residents may even recommend great beaches and scenic spots you would've not otherwise known about!
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Residents can often help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to order the best nachos, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for crabbing?
• Double-check every room of the rental property to confirm that you've packed all belongings at check-out. Make sure to check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden items. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Please make sure to walk through the rental one final time and look for damages to contents or the property itself. We advise inspecting the property with the property manager whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the host is not available, take video of the property to record its condition at check-out.
• Did your family have a excellent stay? Most rental managers make it easy for vacationers to provide comments. If your rental and/or property manager was fantastic, they always love to hear your praise. If anything was wrong and they failed to correct it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make a note as part of your feedback.
