Tips and Tricks to get the perfect Avon rental home experience:

Sticking to your spending plan:

• To book the largest rental home for your budget, we recommend reserving in the Fall or Spring. You'll benefit from lower rental rates, greater selection, gorgeous weather and the absence of giant crowds at restaurants, beaches, and activities. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Hatteras vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday near the ocean? Thanksgiving and Christmas are great times to gather with family and friends at your favorite beach.
• In the Hatteras area, The sooner your group can book a rental home, the easier your search will be. The most desirable rental homes are booked very early. Booking your vacation home six - twelve months before your vacation dates is recommended. Winter holidays are excellent times to search for and book your rental.
• Hosts and Property managers sometimes offer discounts or promotional rates for active duty military and veterans. Ask your host or property manager if special offers are available for your group.
• Management companies and individual rental owners typically offer customers an option to buy trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which usually costs between 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed time as a result of medical-related issues or weather, as well as evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance might be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for program terms and fees.
• Find a copy of your local visitors guide upon checking in. If your rental doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local shops and visitor centers. In addition to great local articles, visitors guide magazines have offers and deals for nearby accommodations and attractions.

Planning and picking the perfectrental:

• Choose dates and max budget.
• Decide how many bedrooms and the bed configuration you need. Waterfront home with amazing sound view, private pool, hot tub, & game room has 10 bedrooms and 13 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our Hatteras rental home search.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is usually available on booking websites. If they are not listed, email or call the host before booking the vacation home. Remember that most property listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which typically includes pull-out couches. You'll need to work out what configuration is suitable for your group.
• If there's a particular Hatteras beach you are crazy about, look for rentals that are either nearby, or those that cater to your requirements.
• Proper accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for the less-mobile. Confirm all required amenities are included before booking.
• If your group is bringing pets, you must book a rental that allows animals. Make sure to ask for details on breed, size, and type restrictions. Usually, property managers charge pet deposits and fees.

More tips for your visit:

• We recommend storing the owner's information in your smartphone and wallet.
• Document any issues with the rental during check in, and immediately send them to the owner. We specifically recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain built-in time stamps that can be helpful if a dispute arises.
• Property managers are there to help! Don't be shy to ask any questions during your stay.
• Be respectful of your neighbors. Often times, nearby homes are occupied by local residents. Respecting noise limits and parking regulations can make a stay significantly more pleasurable.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Neighbors can usually help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to find the best seashells, have a great night out, or the best spots for bird watching?
• Lock your vacation home while you are out and about. Protect the owner's property and your things!
• Re-check every room of the property to confirm that you've packed all belongings at departure. Check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden belongings. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Document the condition of the property at check-out. We recommend taking a video during your final walk-through.
• Did your family have a great stay? Many rental managers make it easy for guests to provide reviews. If your property and/or property manager was terrific, they will likely appreciate your kind words. If anything was amiss and they failed to address it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make a note as part of your comments.
