Finding the best Hatteras rental home experience:

Getting the most from your rental home budget:

• June, July, and August are the most expensive months along the coast of NC. Reserve your Hatteras vacation in the Fall or Spring to get the benefit of beautiful weather while saving money and avoiding crowded roads, restaurants, and activities. 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, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with friends and family at your favorite beach.
• Book your vacation rental as early as possible. Rental schedules often open a year in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many groups reserve their Summer rental homes during Christmas and Thanksgiving get-togethers. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property owner or host whether your family qualifies for a price reduction or discount.
• Property managers frequently offer their guests an option to obtain trip insurance. Trip insurance, which will generally cost anywhere between 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed trip time as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance can be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for additional information.
• Find a copy of your local Hatteras visitors guide magazine when you check-in. If your rental home doesn't have one, you can find them at local grocery stores and visitor centers. In addition to great local stories, visitor guide magazines have money saving offers on local tours, shops, and attractions.

Use filters to search efficiently:

• Select a designated group leader, select your dates, and choose a max budget.
• Determine how many beds and the bed configuration your family needs. Semi-Oceanfront, Pool, Theater, Elevator, Stunning Ocean Views has 8 bedrooms and 8 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our Hatteras vacation rental search.
• Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed types is generally available on booking pages. Otherwise, email or call the property owner before reserving the property. Remember that most property listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which typically includes pull-out couches.
• Looking for specific amenities? Most websites include search filters with amenity lists.
• Proper accessibility can make or break a vacation for persons with disabilities. .
• If your family is vacationing with pets, you must reserve a pet-friendly property. Get details on breed, weight, and type restrictions. Often, hosts charge additional pet fees.

Additional considerations:

• We recommend storing the owner's contact information in your smartphone.
• To make sure that no damages are linked to your visit, record any problem areas when you arrive. Call the property manager right away to document any damages. If there is a dispute about legal responsibility later, having the recorded concerns and contact attempts will be valuable.
• Property managers are great sources of help! Feel free to ask any questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Respecting quiet hours and parking regulations can make a stay more pleasurable. Be a good neighbor. You'll enhance your chance to make some new local friends, and resident neighbors can be an incredible resource to find the best local beaches.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Residents can often help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to order delicious takeout, have a great night out, or the best spots for BBQ?
• Protect the owner (and your stuff!) by locking the property when you are away, just like you would back home.
• Upon check-out, complete a walk-through to confirm you did not forget anything. Check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden belongings. Clean the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Inspect the property a final time and scan for damages to contents or the property itself. We advise inspecting the property with the property manager whenever you can. If the manager isn't available, ensure that you take photos and video of the property to record its condition at check-out.
• After your trip, leave a review! Property owners rely on good ratings to inspire new reservations. They'll be grateful for your review. Alternatively, if something wasn't right, other vacationing families will appreciate that you share your feedback and help them have the best future vacation. Please be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the owner could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded reasonably to solve it.
