Vacation rental home tips:

Money saving strategies:

• In the Hatteras area, The earlier you can book a rental home, the better your selection will be. The best vacation rentals are reserved early. Booking your rental six to twelve months before your travel dates is recommended. Holiday gatherings are excellent times to plan and reserve your rental.
• Summer is the most expensive season in the Hatteras area. To get the best rental home within your budget, we recommend reserving in Fall or Spring months. You'll enjoy lower rates, better selection, gorgeous weather and the absence of giant crowds at Hatteras restaurants, tours, and activities. Many vacationers use this strategy to reserve larger homes, or to reserve a beach front rental that would otherwise be unavailable or 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 on the coast? Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with loved ones at the beach.
• Property management companies sometimes offer promotional rates for active duty military and veterans. Check with your property manager to see if special offers are available for your family.
• Property management companies frequently offer customers an option to add trip insurance. Trip insurance, which generally will cost anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed days as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel stay or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for details.
• Look for your local Hatteras visitors guide when you check-in. If your rental property doesn't have one, you can find them at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers. In addition to great local articles, travel guide magazines contain offers and deals for local accommodations, tours and attractions.

Use filters to search efficiently:

• Start by choosing a vacation week and a maximum budget.
• Note the number beds and the bed configuration you need. Seaside cottage - Semi oceanfront! and dog-friendly has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Precise information regarding bedrooms and bed counts & types is often accessible on booking pages. If not, email the property owner before you reserve the rental. Remember that most listings specify the max. guest capacity, which typically includes sofa beds. You will need to establish which bed configuration is right for your trip.
• If your group is vacationing with pets, you'll need to book a pet-friendly property. Request information on breed, size, and type requirements. Note that some property managers require additional pet deposits and fees.
• If there's a specific Hatteras destination you long to visit, look for homes that are either near by, or those that cater to your requirements.
• Proper accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for persons with disabilities. Make certain to inquire about wheel chair entry, pool lifts and specialized equipment needs.

Tips for a great stay:

• Be sure you get the property manager's contact number and check in/check out procedures for your rental home.
• Property managers are great sources of help! Don't be shy to ask any questions during your stay.
• Protect the owner (and your things!) by keeping the rental locked up while you are away, just like you would at home.
• Upon arrival, record any issues with the property and immediately contact the owner. Keep records of all coorespondence.
• Respecting quiet hours and parking restrictions can make a stay significantly more pleasurable. You will increase your chance to make some new local friends, and resident neighbors are a great source for finding the best local beaches and restaurants.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Local residents can typically point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to find the best bike paths, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for crabbing?
• On check-out day, take a final walk-through to confirm you didn't forget anything. Remember to check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden items. Clean out the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Go through the rental a final time and keep an eye out for damages to contents or the property itself. We recommend inspecting the property with the property manager whenever you can. If the host is not available, remember to take photographs of the rental to record its condition at check-out.
• Leave feedback! Property managers rely on good feedback to inspire future bookings. They'll be much obliged for your feedback. Alternatively, if something wasn't as described, other families will will be grateful for your experience and help them have the best future vacation. Please be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the host had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded expeditiously to solve it.
