Tips for getting the perfect vacation rental experience:

When to go & When to reserve a Rodanthe rental home:

• To book the best rental home within your budget, we highly recommend booking in the Fall or Spring. You'll enjoy lower rates, better selection, beautiful weather and the absence of large crowds at Hatteras restaurants, tours, and activities. Many vacationers use this strategy to find larger homes within budget, or to book a beach front rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during the high season. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Hatteras vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation on the coast? Thanksgiving and Christmas are great times to gather with loved ones at your favorite beach.
• In the Hatteras area, The earlier you can book a vacation home, the better your selection will be. The best rental properties are booked early. Reserving your rental property up to twelve months before your vacation is recommended. Holiday gatherings are excellent times to search for and reserve your vacation home.
• Property managers sometimes offer discounts or promotional rates for active duty military and veterans. Check with your property manager to see if rate reductions are available for your family.
• Booking websites often offer guests an option to buy trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which will generally cost between 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed vacation time as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather, as well as evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance can be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for details.
• Find a copy of your local visitors guide when you arrive at the rental property. If your rental home doesn't have one, you can find them at local grocery stores and visitor centers. In addition to great local articles, visitors guides contain deals for nearby shops and restaurants.

• Select a group lead, choose your dates, and select a spending budget.
• Note the number bedrooms and the configuration your family requires. Oceanside, Beach Access, Hot Tub, Dog Friendly, Rodanthe Pier Passes has 3 bedrooms and 1 bathrooms.
• Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts & types is often available on booking pages. Otherwise, email or call the property manager before you book the vacation property. Remember that most properties list maximum guest capacity, which oftentimes includes pull-out couches. You will need to establish what configuration is right for your family.
• Are you visiting for a single attraction or event? Try a map search to find nearby properties.
• Proper accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for persons with disabilities. Confirm all required amenities are available and included before booking
• If your group is vacationing with pets, filter your search for a property that allows animals. Get information on breed, weight, and type requirements. Often, hosts charge pet deposits and fees.

Advice for a smooth stay:

• Get the host's phone number and arrival/departure procedures for your rental home. Store the host's information in your smartphone.
• To make certain damages aren't linked to your family's visit, inspect the rental for any problem areas during check in. E-mail the property manager immediately to document your findings. If there is a dispute, having a record of issues and contact attempts will be valuable.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a fireplace, stereo or WIFI setup. Contact your host. They are there to help! A brief telephone call prevents many issues.
• Respecting quiet hours and parking regulations can make a stay more pleasurable. You will enhance your chance to make local friends, and resident neighbors are an incredible source for finding the best local beaches and hangouts.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Neighbors can often point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to launch your kayaks, have a great night out, or the best spots for bird watching?
• Lock your rental while you're out and about. Protect your property!
• Don't leave anything behind! Before departing, take a walk through the property to make sure you've collected all personal items. Check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden items. Clean out the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Inspect the property one final time and look for any damage. We suggest inspecting the property with the property manager whenever you can. If the property manager is not available, remember to take photos and video of the rental to record its condition at check-out.
• Did you have a fantastic time? Many rental managers make it easy for customers to provide reviews. If your rental property and/or property management company was great, they will likely appreciate your kind words. If anything was amiss and they failed to address it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make it a point as part of your review.
