Tricks and tips to get the best vacation property experience:

Finding your perfect rental:

• Book your rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules often become available twelve months in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many groups reserve their Summer rental homes during Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years Eve gatherings. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Book your rental in Fall or Spring months to get the benefit of gorgeous weather while saving money and avoiding crowded roads, restaurants, and activities.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property manager whether your vacationing group qualifies for a special promotion or discount.
• Booking websites often offer guests an option to add vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which normally costs 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed vacation time as a result of medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance might be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for specifics.
• Often, management companies supply Currituck area travel guide magazines which often include money-saving offers, either offered directly by local businesses, or by way of a relationship with the management company and the business itself. You can also find Currituck visitors guide magazine and coupon books at local gas stations and shopping centers.

Narrow your Search:

• Choose dates and maximum budget.

• Precise details about bedrooms and bed counts is usually accessible online. If they are not listed, contact the property owner before reserving the property. Remember that most property listings specify maximum guest capacity, which frequently includes pull-out couches.
• If your group is vacationing with pets, you'll need to book a pet-friendly property. Get details on breed, size, and type requirements. Be aware that some property managers charge pet deposits and fees.
• Visiting for a single attraction or event? If so, use a map search to find nearby rentals.
• Proper accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for those with limited mobility. Make certain to ask about wheel chair accessibility, pool lifts and specialized equipment needs.

• Review check in & check out procedures before leaving home. Take a printed copy, and add a note with the instructions to your phone.
• Property managers are great sources of help! Feel free to ask questions during your stay.

• To ensure that no damages are attributed to your family's stay, inspect for any problem areas during check in. E-mail the rental manager immediately to document any pre-existing damages. If there is a dispute, having a record of problems and contact attempts will be very helpful.
• Respecting quiet hours and parking rules can make a stay significantly more pleasurable. You will magnify your chance to make some new local friends, and resident neighbors are an incredible source for finding the best local scenic spots.

• Don't leave anything behind! Just before you drive away, walk through the rental property to confirm you've collected all of your things. Remember to check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden items. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Inspect the property one final time and scan for damage. We suggest walking through with the property manager whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the manager is not available, ensure that you take pictures of the rental to record its condition.
