Strategies to get the optimal Hatteras rental home experience:

Sticking to a budget:

• Summer is the most expensive season along the coast of NC. To find the best value, try shifting your trip dates to the Spring or Fall seasons. May, September, and October offer great weather, less crowded beaches, and greatly reduced traffic. Many vacationers use this strategy to find larger homes within budget, or to reserve an oceanfront rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during the high season. 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.
• The earlier your group can book a vacation home, the better your selection will be. The most desirable vacation rentals are reserved very early. Booking your vacation property up to 12 months before your travel dates is recommended. Christmas, Thanksgiving and New Years Eve are excellent times to search for and book your rental.
• Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property owner if your group qualifies for a price reduction.
• Management companies and individual rental owners usually offer guests an option to buy vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which will generally cost anywhere between 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any days missed as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance might be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for details.
• Find a copy of your local Hatteras visitors guide upon checking in. If your rental home doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local grocery stores and visitor centers. In addition to great local articles, visitors guide magazines contain deals for nearby accommodations and attractions.

Use filters to search efficiently:

• Begin by choosing trip dates and a max budget.
• Decide how many bedrooms and what type of bedroom configuration your group requires. Sweet Sands of Salvo - 6BR\/5.5 BATH Luxury Home with Panoramic Views has 6 bedrooms and 6 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our Hatteras vacation rental search.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts is commonly available online. Otherwise, email the property management company before you reserve the property. Note that most properties list the maximum guest capacity, which typically includes pull-out couches. You will need to establish what is best for your vacation family.
• Visiting for a single attraction or event? Use a map search to find nearby rentals.
• Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for guests with disabilities. Remember to confirm all necessary amenities are available before booking
• Some properties allow pets, and some do not. Allowable types of family pet, size and breeds may be restricted, and added fees may apply. Ask your host about allowable breeds and types before booking.

Know before you go:

• Add the host's contact info to your phone. Take a copy of arrival/departure procedures.
• Upon arrival, make note of any issues with the rental property and immediately alert the owner. Keep records of all coorespondence.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a hot tub, intercom or coffee maker. Contact your property manager. They are there to help! A brief phone call prevents lots of issues.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like disrespectful vacationers bothering your peace. Practice the golden rule for best judgement. Happy residents may even recommend great local food and places you would've never otherwise known about!
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Residents can usually help. Who better to ask where to go for the best drinks, have a great night out, or the best spots for bird watching?
• Keep your rental home locked while you're gone! Don't let thieves ruin your holiday.
• Re-check the vacation property to make sure that you've packed all of your belongings at departure. Make sure to check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden belongings. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Walk through the property one final time and keep an eye out for damages to contents or the property itself. We suggest walking through with the host whenever possible. If the property manager isn't available, ensure that you take video of the rental to record its condition.
• Did your family have a terrific vacation? Most rental management companies make it easy for clients to provide comments. If your rental and/or property management company was terrific, they would love to hear it. If anything was imperfect 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 review.
