Tips and Tricks for getting the best rental home experience:

Get the most from your spending budget:

• Book your rental as early as possible. Rental schedules usually become available 12 months in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many families book their Summer rentals during Winter holiday get-togethers. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Summer months are high season in Corolla. Book your Currituck rental home in the Fall or Spring to get the benefit of warm weather while saving money and avoiding crowds. Many vacationers use this strategy to reserve larger homes, or to reserve an oceanfront rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during the Summer. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Currituck vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation near the ocean? Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with family and friends at your favorite beach.
• Some hosts and property managers offer special rates for active duty military and veterans. Make sure to check with your property manager to see if discounts are available for your family.
• Property management companies typically offer renters an option to purchase trip insurance. Trip insurance, which normally costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed trip time as a result of medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as ensuing additional evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for program terms and fees.
• Look for your local Currituck area magazine upon arrival. If your rental property doesn't have one, you can find them at local shops and visitor centers. In addition to great local stories, travel guides have money saving offers on nearby shops and restaurants.

Use filters to search efficiently:

• Select your vacation week and budget.
• Decide how many beds and the bed configuration your group needs. Oceanside, Private Pool, Golf Cart, Hot Tub, BU78, Purple Turtle has 5 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our Currituck rentals search.
• Specific details about bedrooms and bed types is almost always accessible online. Otherwise, call the property manager before you book your home. Note that most property listings specify maximum guest capacity, which often includes sofa beds and bunks. You'll need to establish what configuration is suitable for your vacation group.
• 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. Type of pet, size and breeds may be limited. Ask your property manager before booking, and study your rental agreement! Extra fees or applied to your invoice.
• If there's a particular Currituck beach you long to visit, look for homes that are either close by, or those that cater to your desires.
• Proper accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for guests that require the use of a wheelchair. Confirm all necessary amenities are included before booking.

Have a great stay:

• Take a copy of the owner's phone number and entry/exit procedures for your rental.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a garage door opener, television set or coffee maker. Contact your owner. They are there to help! A brief telephone call prevents many concerns.
• Lock your rental while you're out and about. Protect the owner's property and your things!
• To ensure that damages aren't linked to your family's stay, inspect the rental for any problem areas during check in. Get in touch with the host right away to document your findings. If there is a dispute about who is responsible, having the recorded problems and contact attempts will be useful.
• Respecting quiet hours and parking policies can make a stay more pleasurable. You will magnify your chance to make local friends, and resident neighbors can be an excellent resource to find the best local beaches and restaurants.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Locals can typically help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to take kids for a treat, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for shopping?
• Don't leave anything behind! Before you drive away, take a walk through the rental property to make sure you've collected all personal belongings. Remember to check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden items. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Inspect the rental one final time and look for any damage. We recommend inspecting the property with the host whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the property manager isn't available, remember to take photos of the rental to record its condition.
• Did you have a terrific time? Most rental websites make it easy for clients to provide comments. If your rental and/or property management company was fantastic, they always love to hear your praise. If anything was defective and they failed to fix it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make it a point as part of your review.
