How to book the best Rodanthe vacation property experience:

Money saving strategies:

• June, July, and August are the most expensive months in coastal NC. To find the best value, shift your vacation dates to the Spring or Fall seasons. May, September, and even October offer excellent temperatures, less crowded beaches, and reduced traffic. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Hatteras vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday on the coast? Thanksgiving and Christmas are great times to gather with friends and family at your favorite beach.
• Reserve your vacation rental as early as possible. Rental schedules generally become available a year in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many groups reserve their Summer vacation rentals during holiday gatherings. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Some owners offer discounts or promotional rates for veterans and active duty military. Ask your property manager if rate reductions are available for your family.
• Management companies and individual rental owners often offer customers an option to obtain trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which normally will cost you between 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed time as a result of medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional evacuation costs or charges, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for specifics.
• Find a copy of your local Hatteras visitors guide upon checking in. If your rental doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local grocery stores and visitor centers. In addition to great local articles, visitors guides have money saving offers on local tours, shops, and attractions.

Selecting and booking your prefect Hatteras vacation home:

• First and foremost, have your group commit to vacation dates and a max budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and what type of bedroom configuration your family requires. Pvt.Pool, Hot Tub, Pet Friendly = Southern Hospitality has 5 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our Hatteras vacation rental search.
• Specific details about bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is generally accessible online. Otherwise, email or call the host before reserving your home. Remember that most listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which oftentimes includes sofa beds. You'll need to establish what is right for your family.
• If there's a specific Hatteras beach you are enamored with, search for rentals that are either close by, or those that cater to your needs.
• Proper accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for guests that require the use of a wheelchair. .
• If your group is bringing pets, filter your search for a pet-friendly property. Ask for details on breed, weight, and type requirements. Some property managers require additional pet deposits and fees.

During your stay:

• Review check in & check out procedures before leaving home. Take a printed copy, and save the instructions to your phone.
• To ensure that damages aren't attributed to your family's stay, note any problem areas when you arrive. text the property manager immediately to report any issues. If there is a dispute about who is responsible, having the recorded concerns and contact attempts will be helpful.
• Hosts are there to help! Don't be shy to ask questions during your stay.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like disagreeable vacationers bothering your home life. Employ the golden rule for common sense. Happy residents may even recommend great restaurants and attractions you would've never otherwise known about!
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Local residents can typically help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to enjoy a steak with a view, have a great night out, or the best spots for fishing?
• Lock your rental home while you're away. Protect your property!
• Double-check the rental property to confirm that you've packed everything at check-out. Re-check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden treasure. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Please make sure to walk through the rental a final time and look for damages to contents or the property itself. We suggest walking through with the property manager whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the host is not available, remember to take pictures of the property to record its condition at check-out.
• Did your family have a excellent time? Most rental managers make it easy for travelers to provide comments. If your property and/or host was fantastic, they will likely appreciate your kind words. If anything was defective and they failed to fix it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make a note as part of your comments.
