Tips to get the perfect Currituck rental experience:

Find your perfect rental:

• June, July, and August are the most expensive months in the Currituck area. To book the largest rental home within your budget, we suggest booking in the Fall or Spring shoulder seasons. You'll enjoy lower rates, better selection, warm weather and the absence of large crowds at popular Currituck attractions and restaurants. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Currituck vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation on the coast? Thanksgiving and Christmas are great times to gather with friends and family at your favorite beach.
• Reserve your rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules generally open 12 months in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many families reserve their Summer vacations during Winter holiday get-togethers. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Some hosts offer discounts or promotional rates for veterans and active duty military. Check with your property manager to see if rate reductions are available for your family before you book.
• Property management companies frequently offer guests an option to buy vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which normally costs between 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed days as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance might be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for program terms and fees.
• Often, property management companies supply Currituck area visitor guides that include coupons, either offered independently by local businesses, or through a partnership between the rental management company and the business itself. You can also find visitors guide and coupon books at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers.

How to pick the best rental in the Currituck area:

• Select a designated group leader, select your vacation dates, and select a spending budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and the bed configuration your group requires. 1675* A Shore Thing *2 min walk to beach access has 5 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms.
• Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts is often accessible online. Otherwise, email or call the property management company before booking the vacation property. Note that most properties list the maximum guest capacity, which frequently includes sofa beds in living rooms.
• If there's a certain Currituck destination you are enamored with, search for rentals that are either close by, or those that cater especially to your needs.
• Suitable accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for persons with disabilities. Make certain to inquire about wheel chair accessibility, pool lifts and specialized equipment needs.
• If your family is bringing pets, you'll need to search for a pet-friendly rental. Ask for details on breed, size, and type restrictions. Be aware that some property owners require additional pet deposits and fees.

More tips for your visit:

• Store the manager's information in your smartphone.
• At Check-in, note any damages to the rental property and immediately alert the host. Record all correspondence just in case a dispute arises.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a hot tub, intercom or appliance. Contact your owner. They are there to help! A brief text message prevents a lot of concerns.
• Respect your neighbors. Often times, adjacent homes are filled by local residents. Respecting noise limits and parking rules is the right thing to do.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Neighbors can frequently help. Who better to ask where to get the best breakfast in town, have a great night out, or the best spots for crabbing?
• Keep your rental home locked while you are gone! Don't let thieves spoil your trip.
• Don't leave anything behind! Before departing, take a walk through the property to make sure you've collected all belongings. Remember to check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden belongings. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Inspect the property one final time and keep an eye out for damages to contents or the property itself. We advise walking through with the host whenever possible. If the host is not available, take photos of the property to record its condition.
• Leave a review! Property owners rely on excellent ratings to propel future reservations. They'll be much obliged for your review. Alternatively, if something wasn't as described, other vacationers will be thankful you shared your experience find their best vacation home. Be fair with your review. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the owner had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded reasonably to fix it.
