Rental home booking tips and tricks:

Cost saving strategies:

• Reserve your rental as early as possible. Rental schedules usually become available a year in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many groups book their Summer rental homes during Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years Eve gatherings. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• June, July, and August are the most expensive months along the coast of NC. Booking in Fall or Spring months is a great way to save money on your vacation rental. Rates are lower, and you'll find a larger selection of suitable homes. Many vacationers use this method to find larger homes within budget, or to book an oceanfront rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during the Summer. 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 loved ones at your favorite beach.
• Some hosts offer discounts or promotional rates for veterans. Ask your host or property manager if special offers are available for your family.
• Property managers typically offer customers an option to buy trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which usually will cost you anywhere between 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed trip time as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for more information.
• Many management companies and vacation rental houses supply Hatteras area travel guides that include coupons, either offered directly by local companies, or through a relationship with the property management company and the business itself. You can also find Hatteras visitors guide and coupon books at local gas stations and shopping centers.

Choosing and booking the right Hatteras vacation home:

• First, have your group commit to the best dates and a spending budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and the configuration your group requires. Soundfront Dog Friendly Home with Hot Tub and Windsurfing Access has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our search.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts & types is normally available on booking websites. Otherwise, call the host before you reserve the property. Remember that most listings specify the max. guest capacity, which typically includes pull-out couches. You will need to establish what configuration is suitable for your family.
• Some rental properties allow pets, and others do not. Allowable types of family pet, size and breeds may be restricted, and added charges may apply. Ask the host about allowable pet guidelines before booking.
• Looking for particular amenities? Most rental websites include amenity lists and search filters. Filtering by amenity will allow you to quickly find the best rental.
• Suitable accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for the less-mobile. Make certain to inquire about specialized equipment and wheel chair accessibility.

During your stay:

• Review arrival and departure procedures before traveling. Take a printed copy, and add a note with the instructions to your smartphone.
• Property managers are available to help! Don't be shy to ask any questions during your stay.
• Ensure you protect the rental owner (and your things!) by locking the property when you are out, just like you would back home.
• During check-in, note any issues with the rental property and immediately contact the owner. Keep records of all correspondence in case a dispute arises.
• Don't forget to respect your neighbors. Frequently, nearby homes are occupied by local residents. Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking policies is the right thing to do.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Residents can usually help. Who better to ask where to launch your kayaks, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for crabbing?
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before you drive away, take a walk through the property to make sure you've collected all personal items. Check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden treasure. Clean out the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Go through the rental one final time and keep an eye out for damage. We suggest inspecting the property with the property manager whenever you can. If the host isn't available, take video and pictures of the rental to record its condition at check-out.
• Did your family have a excellent vacation? Many vacation rental websites make it easy for vacationers to provide comments. If your rental and/or property manager was wonderful, they would love to hear it. If anything was out of order and they failed to address it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make it a point as part of your comments.
