Tricks and tips for getting the perfect Buxton vacation property experience:

Cost saving strategies:

• In the Hatteras area, The sooner you can book a rental home, the easier your search will be. The most desirable properties are reserved very early. Reserving your rental up to twelve months before your travel dates is recommended. Christmas, Thanksgiving and New Years Eve are excellent times to plan and book your rental home.
• June, July, and August are high season in the Hatteras area. Booking your Hatteras vacation home in Fall or Spring months is our best tip for saving money on your rental home. Rates are lower, and you'll find a larger selection of suitable properties. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the 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 loved ones at your favorite beach.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective vacation rental company or host if your vacationing group qualifies for a special promotion or discount.
• Property management companies usually offer guests an option to purchase trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which normally costs between 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed time as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather, as well as hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for additional information.
• Find a copy of your local Hatteras visitors guide when you check-in. If your rental home doesn't have one, you can find them at local shops and fuel stations. In addition to great local information, visitor guides contain offers and deals for local shops and restaurants.

Selecting the perfect rental in Buxton:

• Begin by choosing your trip dates and a budget.
• Determine how many beds and the bed configuration you need. The Maiden in Buxton: Oceanside & Steps from the Beach! has 2 bedrooms and 1 bathrooms.
• Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts & types is generally accessible online. If you don't see them listed, email or call the property management company before reserving the vacation home. Note that most properties list maximum guest capacity, which frequently includes pull-out couches. You'll need to work out what is optimal for your vacation family.
• Are you traveling with furry, four-legged family members? Although a number of vacation homes allow pets or animals, guidelines and costs vary per property. Allowable pet type, breed, and size are often limited. Ask your property manager before booking, and study your rental agreement! Additional fees or costs applied to your agreement.
• If there's a certain Hatteras destination you crave, browse homes that are either close by, or those that cater to your desires.
• Appropriate accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for those with limited mobility. Confirm all necessary amenities are available and included before booking.

Have a wonderful stay:

• Add the property manager's phone number to your smartphone. Understand and take a copy of arrival/departure procedures.
• Hosts are great sources of help! Don't be shy to ask questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Lock your vacation home while you are out and about. Keep your property safe!
• During arrival, make note of any damages to the property and immediately contact the host. Record all correspondence just in case a dispute arises.
• Respecting quiet hours and parking regulations can make a stay significantly more pleasurable. Be a good neighbor. You'll magnify your chance to make local friends, and resident neighbors are usually an excellent resource to find the best local attractions.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Residents can typically point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to rent beach equipment, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for bird watching?
• Just prior to departing, take a walk-through to confirm you haven't leave anything behind. Check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden belongings. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Go through the property a final time and scan for any damage. We advise walking through with the host whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the manager isn't available, ensure that you take video of the rental to record its condition.
• Remember to leave a review! Hosts rely on good feedback to drive more reservations. They'll be much obliged for your feedback. Alternatively, if something wasn't as described, other 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 property manager could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded expeditiously to fix it.
