Tips to get the optimal Hatteras rental home experience:

Find your perfect rental:

• The sooner you can book a vacation rental, the easier your search will be. The most desirable properties are reserved early. Booking your vacation home six to twelve months before your travel dates is recommended. Winter holidays are excellent times to plan and book your vacation home.
• Summer time is high season in Waves. Booking in Spring or Fall is a great way to save on your vacation rental. Rates are lower, and you'll find a better selection of suitable homes.
• Some property management companies offer discounts for veterans. Remember to ask your property manager if rate reductions are available for your group before you book.
• Property managers frequently offer their guests an option to obtain trip insurance. Trip insurance, which normally will cost you between 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed time as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel stay or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for program terms and fees.
• Look for your local visitors guide when you arrive at the rental property. If your rental doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers. In addition to great information, visitors guides have offers and deals for local accommodations and attractions.

Selecting the best rental home:

• Start by choosing your potential vacation weeks and a max budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and the configuration your group needs. 8BR Oceanfront home - Game & theater rooms, private pool, hot tub ????? has 8 bedrooms and 9 bathrooms.
• Specific information regarding bedrooms and bed counts & types is usually available online. If they are not listed, email or call the property management company before reserving the vacation property. Remember that most listings specify the max. guest capacity, which oftentimes includes pull out couches in living rooms. You'll need to work out what configuration is suitable for your group.
• If your family is traveling with pets, you must book a property that allows animals. Ask for details on breed, weight, and type restrictions. Often, property managers charge additional pet fees.
• Are you visiting for a single event? Try a map search to locate nearby properties.
• Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for guests with disabilities. .

More tips for your stay:

• Review arrival and departure procedures before traveling. Save the instructions to your smartphone, and take a printed copy.
• Property managers are great sources of help! Feel free to ask questions during your stay.
• Lock your vacation home while you're out and about. Protect your property!
• To make sure damages are not linked to your stay, inspect the rental for any problem areas upon your arrival. E-mail the host immediately to relay your findings. If there is a dispute, having the recorded problems and contact attempts will be helpful.
• Be respectful of your neighbors. Often, adjacent homes are occupied by local residents. Respecting late-night noise limits and parking policies is the right thing to do.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Neighbors can frequently help. Who better to ask where to order the best nachos, have a great night out, or the best spots for crabbing?
• Double-check the vacation property to confirm that you've packed all of your belongings on check-out day. Re-check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden belongings. Clean out the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Go through the property one final time and keep an eye out for damage. We suggest walking through with the host whenever you can. If the property manager isn't available, remember to take photographs of the property to record its condition at check-out.
• After your trip, leave a review! Property managers rely on excellent ratings to compel more bookings. They'll be grateful for your feedback. Alternatively, if something went wrong, other families will be thankful you shared your feedback and help them have the best future vacation. Please be fair with your feedback If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the manager had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded quickly to fix it.
