Strategies for getting the best vacation rental experience:

Cost saving strategies:

• June, July, and August are the most expensive months in the Hatteras area. To find the best value, try changing your family's Hatteras vacation to the Spring or Fall months. May, September, and even October offer warmer weather, less crowded beaches, and reduced traffic. Many vacationers use this strategy to find larger homes within budget, or to book an oceanfront vacation rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during the Summer months. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Hatteras vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday on the coast? Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with friends and family at your favorite beach.
• The sooner your group can book a rental home, the better your selection will be. The best rental homes are reserved very early. Booking your vacation rental up to twelve months before your vacation dates is recommended. Holidays such as Christmas and Thanksgiving are excellent times to plan and book your rental.
• Property management companies sometimes offer discounts for veterans. Check with your property manager to see if special offers are available for your family before you book.
• Management companies and individual rental owners frequently offer renters an option to purchase vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which costs between 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed days as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance can be a a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for additional information.
• Look for your local Hatteras area magazine upon checking in. If your rental home doesn't have one, you can find them at local grocery stores and visitor centers. In addition to great information, visitors guides contain offers and deals for local accommodations, restaurants and tours.

Planning, selecting, and booking the perfectrental home:

• Choose a designated group leader, select your trip dates, and choose a spending budget.

• Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts is commonly available online. If they are not listed, contact the property manager before reserving your rental. Note that most property listings specify the max. guest capacity, which often includes pull-out couches. You will need to determine which bed configuration is optimal for your group.
• Are you visiting for a single event or attraction? Use a map search to browse nearby properties.
• Appropriate accessibility can make or break a vacation for those with limited mobility. .
• 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. Remember to ask the property manager before booking, and study your rental agreement! Extra fees or charges applied to your agreement.

• Take a copy of the host's phone number and entry/exit procedures for your rental home. Store the host's contact information in your smartphone.

• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a garage door opener, stereo or thermostat. Contact your owner. They are there to help! A brief telephone call prevents many difficulties.
• Don't forget to respect your neighbors. Often, adjacent homes are occupied by permanent residents. Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking rules is the right thing to do.

• Protect the rental owner (and your things!) by locking and securing the home when you are away, just like you would back home.
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before departing, take a walk through the property to reconfirm you've collected all of your things. Re-check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden treasure. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.

Alternatively, if something went wrong, other families will appreciate that you share your feedback find their best rental home.
