Tricks and tips for getting the perfect Hatteras vacation rental experience:

Getting the most from your rental home budget:

• Book your rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules generally open twelve months in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many families reserve their Summer vacation rentals during holiday gatherings. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Reserve your Hatteras rental property in Fall or Spring to get the benefit of gorgeous weather while saving money and avoiding crowds. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Hatteras vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation near the ocean? Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with friends and family at your favorite beach.
• Hosts and Property managers sometimes offer rate reductions for veterans. Ask your host or property manager if discounts are available for your group before you book.
• Property managers typically offer their guests an option to add trip insurance. Trip insurance, which commonly will cost you 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for days missed as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather, as well as evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for additional information.
• Find a copy of your local Hatteras visitors guide magazine when you arrive at the rental property. If your rental property doesn't have one, you can find them at local shops and fuel stations. In addition to great local stories, visitor guide magazines have money saving offers on nearby attractions, tours, restaurants, and shops.

Planning and choosing the rightrental home:

• Start by choosing trip dates and a max budget.
• Note the number bedrooms and what type of bedroom configuration your group needs. Crab Walk: Oceanside Home Only 200ft to the Beach! has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Precise information regarding bedrooms and bed counts is generally accessible online. If they are not listed, contact the property owner before you reserve your rental. Remember that most property listings specify the max. guest capacity, which typically includes sofa beds in living rooms. You'll need to establish what bed configuration is suitable for your family.
• Some properties allow pets, and others don't. Acceptable types of dog or cat, weight and breeds may be restricted, and additional costs may apply. Ask your host about pet restrictions before booking.
• Looking for special amenities? Most websites include search filters with amenity lists. Amenity filters help you quickly remove less-optimal properties.
• Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for persons with disabilities. Make certain to inquire about wheel chair accessibility, pool lifts and specialized equipment needs.

More considerations:

• Take a copy of the host's contact number and check in/check out procedures for your rental property. Store the manager's information in your smartphone.
• Property managers are available to help! Feel free to ask any questions during your stay.
• Keep the property locked while you are away! Don't let thieves ruin your vacation.
• To make certain that no damages are linked to your visit, inspect the property for any problem areas during arrival. Speak to the property manager immediately to relay any issues. If there is a dispute, having the recorded issues and contact attempts will be helpful.
• Be a good neighbor. Often times, nearby homes are occupied by permanent residents. Respecting late-night noise limits and parking rules is the right thing to do.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Residents can frequently point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to order delicious takeout, have a great night out, or the best spots for bird watching?
• Just prior to departing, take a final walk-through to make sure you didn't forget anything. Remember to check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden items. Clean out the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Document the condition of the property at check-out. We recommend taking a video during your final walk-through.
• Did your group have a terrific time? Many rental managers make it easy for guests to provide comments. If your rental property and/or property management company was terrific, they always love to hear your praise. If anything was amiss and they failed to fix it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make it a point as part of your feedback.
