Tips to get the best rental experience:

How to get the best rental home value:

• Booking your vacation rental in Fall or Spring months is our best tip for saving money on your vacation. Rates are lower, and you'll find a larger selection of acceptable properties. Many vacationers use this method to find larger homes within budget, or to book a beach front vacation rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during the Summer.
• The sooner your group can reserve a vacation rental, the better your selection will be. The best rental properties are reserved very early. Booking your vacation rental six - twelve months before your travel dates is recommended. Holidays such as Christmas and Thanksgiving are excellent times to plan and reserve your vacation home.
• Some property managers offer discounts or promotional rates for veterans. Remember to ask your property manager if rate reductions are available for your group.
• Property managers typically offer guests an option to add vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which costs between 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for days missed as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for specifics.
• Look for your local Currituck visitors guide when you arrive at the rental property. If your rental property doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local shops and visitor centers. In addition to great information, visitors guide magazines contain money saving offers on local restaurants, attractions, and tours.

Finding the perfect vacation rental:

• Start by selecting your a vacation week and a spending budget.
• Decide how many bedrooms and the bed configuration your group needs. The Grand Ole Osprey - Corolla Oceanside - The Original Classic Beach House! has 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our Currituck rental home search.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is often available on booking websites. If not, email the property management company before reserving the rental. Remember that most properties list maximum guest capacity, which frequently includes sofa beds.
• If there's a particular Currituck beach you simply love, look for homes that are either near by, or those that cater especially to your needs.
• Suitable accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for guests with disabilities. Confirm all required amenities are available before booking
• Some properties allow pets, but others don't. Allowable types of pet, weight and breeds may be restricted, and added charges may apply. Ask the host about pet restrictions before booking.

More considerations for your visit:

• Get the property manager's phone number and arrival/departure procedures for your rental property.
• To ensure that damages aren't linked to your visit, inspect the rental for any problem areas during arrival. message the rental manager immediately to record your findings. If there is a dispute about who is responsible, having the recorded problems and contact attempts will be helpful.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a garage door opener, A/V setup or appliance. Contact your owner. They are there to help! A brief call prevents quite a few issues.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like loud visitors disrupting your peace and quiet. Apply the golden rule for common sense. Happy residents may even recommend great local food and scenic spots you would have never otherwise known!
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Residents can typically help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to find the best seashells, have a great night out, or the best spots for fishing?
• Lock your rental property while you are out! Don't let crooks spoil your trip.
• At departure, complete a walk-through to confirm you didn't forget anything. Remember to check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden treasure. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Document the condition of the property at check-out. We recommend taking a video during your final walk-through.
• Did your group have a great vacation? Many rental managers make it easy for travelers to provide reviews. If your rental and/or property manager was great, they would love to hear it. If anything was defective and they failed to fix it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make a note as part of your review.
