Tips and Tricks to get the very best vacation home experience:

When to visit & When to reserve a Waves rental home:

• In the Hatteras area, The sooner your group can reserve a home, the better your selection will be. The most desirable properties are reserved early. Reserving your vacation property 6-12 months before your travel dates is recommended. Holiday gatherings are excellent times to plan and book your vacation rental.
• Reserving a rental home in the Fall or Spring shoulder seasons is a good way to save on your vacation. Rental rates are lower, and you'll find a larger selection of desirable properties. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, or to book 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 Hatteras vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation on the coast? Christmas, Thanksgiving, and New Years Eve are great times to gather with friends and family at the beach.
• Some property managers offer rate reductions for active duty military and veterans. Make sure to check with your host or property manager to see if rate reductions are available for your family.
• Property management companies often offer their guests an option to buy vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which normally will cost you anywhere between 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed time as a result of medical-related issues or weather, as well as hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance might be a a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for program terms and fees.
• Find a copy of your local Hatteras visitors guide magazine when you arrive at the rental property. If your rental doesn't have one, you can find them at local grocery stores and visitor centers. In addition to great information, visitor guide magazines contain offers and deals for nearby tours and attractions.

Planning, selecting, and booking your prefect Hatteras vacation home:

• Start by having your group agree to dates and a spending budget.
• Decide how many bedrooms and the configuration your group requires. 1 Love Means an Oceanside Home with Private Pool, Hot Tub, and Basketball Hoop has 5 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our Hatteras rentals search.
• Specific information regarding bedrooms and bed counts is almost always available online. If you don't see them listed, contact the property owner before you book the vacation property. Note that most property listings specify the max. guest capacity, which often includes sofa beds.
• Are you traveling with furry, four-legged family members? Many vacation homes allow animals, but guidelines and restrictions apply. Allowable pet type, breed, and size are often limited. Ask your host before booking, and study your agreement! Extra fees or may be applied to your agreement.
• If there's an individual Hatteras destination you long to visit, search for rentals that are either near by, or those that cater especially to your desires.
• Suitable accessibility can make or break a vacation for the less-mobile. Confirm all necessary amenities are included before booking

More considerations for your visit:

• We recommend storing the manager's information in your smartphone.
• Property managers are great sources of help! Don't be shy to ask questions during your stay.
• Ensure you protect the owner (and your things!) by locking the property when you are away, just like you would back home.
• Document any issues with the rental during check in, and immediately send them to the property manager. We especially recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain built-in time stamps that are very helpful if damages are assessed.
• Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking restrictions can make a stay more pleasurable. You will increase your chance to make some new local friends, and resident neighbors are usually an excellent source for finding the best local beaches.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Neighbors can usually help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to spend a rainy day, have a great night out, or the best spots for shopping?
• Upon check-out, complete a final walk-through to confirm you didn't forget anything. Remember to check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden belongings. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Inspect the rental one final time and keep an eye out for damage. We suggest inspecting the property with the host whenever possible. If the host is not available, ensure that you take video and pictures of the rental to record its condition at check-out.
• Remember to leave a review! Property managers rely on great feedback to stimulate future reservations. They'll be thankful for your review. Alternatively, if something wasn't right, other vacationers will be thankful you shared your review find their best rental home. Please be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the host could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded expeditiously to fix it.
