Strategies to get the optimal Hatteras rental home experience:

Money saving strategies:

• Summertime is high season in Buxton. To find the best value, consider changing your family's Hatteras trip dates to the Spring or Fall months. May, September, and even October offer warmer temperatures, less crowded beaches, and reduced traffic. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, or to book an oceanfront vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable during the high season.
• The earlier you can book a rental home, the easier your search will be. The best vacation rentals are reserved very early. Booking your vacation home six to twelve months before your travel dates is recommended. Christmas, Thanksgiving and New Years Eve are excellent times to plan and book your vacation rental.
• Some property management companies offer special rates for veterans and active duty military. Remember to ask your property manager if discounts are available for your group.
• Property managers typically offer their guests an option to purchase vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which commonly costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed days as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for more information.
• Many property management companies and vacation rental houses supply Hatteras area travel guide magazines which will include money-saving deals, either offered directly by local companies, or by way of a partnership between the rental management company and the business itself. You can also find Hatteras visitors guide magazine and coupon books at local gas stations and shopping centers.

Narrow your Search:

• Select a group lead, choose your trip dates, and choose a maximum budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and the configuration your group requires. The Maiden in Buxton: Oceanside & Steps from the Beach! has 2 bedrooms and 1 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our Hatteras rental home search.
• Precise information about bedrooms and bed types is usually available on booking websites. If you don't see them listed, call the property owner before reserving the vacation property. Remember that most property listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which often includes sofa beds and bunks.
• Are you looking for unique amenities? Most rental search websites include amenity lists and search filters.
• Suitable accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for the less-mobile. .
• Some properties allow pets, and others don't. Acceptable types of pet, weight and breeds may be restricted, and added charges may apply. Ask the owner about pet restrictions before booking.

More considerations:

• Take a copy of the property manager's contact number and arrival/departure procedures for your rental property.
• Document any issues with the property during check in, and immediately contact the host. We specifically recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain time stamps that can be helpful if a dispute is filed.
• Hosts are great sources of help! Feel free to ask any questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking policies can make a stay more pleasurable. You'll magnify your chance to make local friends, and resident neighbors are usually a great source for finding the best local restaurants, beaches, and hangouts.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Neighbors can usually help. Who better to ask where to find the fresh catch of the day, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for BBQ?
• Protect the rental owner (and your stuff!) by locking the rental while you are away, just like you would back home.
• Double-check the rental property to make sure that you've packed all personal items on check-out day. Re-check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden belongings. Clean the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Go through the rental a final time and keep an eye out for any damage. We suggest inspecting the property with the host whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the manager isn't available, ensure that you take photos of the rental to record its condition at check-out.
• After your trip, leave feedback! Hosts rely on good feedback to stimulate future bookings. They'll be much obliged for your feedback. Alternatively, if something wasn't right, other families will be thankful you shared your feedback and help them have the best future vacation. Remember to be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the manager had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded expeditiously to remedy it.
