We ask that you treat our home as your own to preserve its pristine condition for future guests and your return visits. We do not accept reservations from individuals under 25 and stringently prohibit third-event bookings for our guests and neighbors’ safety and tranquility. The person making the reservation must be the one staying at the property.

★ RENTAL AGREEMENT ★
Your booking is NOT fully confirmed until these requirements have been fulfilled. Once the reservation is confirmed and before check-in, guests must sign a Rental Agreement outlining the terms of the stay. Please be advised that all guests over 18 will be asked to sign a Rental Agreement that governs the terms of the stay per the North Carolina Vacation Rental Act. No bookings will be finalized without finishing this process.

★ ADDITIONAL SCREENING ★
Our company uses a third-event screening service called Safely. You may receive an e-mail from Safely asking you for additional information to verify your identity, such as your home address and date of birth. Please visit the Safely website if you would like further information.

Tips and Tricks to get the very best Currituck vacation rental experience:

Finding the best value:

• Summertime is the most expensive season in coastal NC. Book your vacation in Fall or Spring to enjoy gorgeous weather while saving money and avoiding crowded roads, restaurants, and activities.
• The sooner you can book a rental home, the better your selection will be. The most desirable vacation rentals are booked very early. Booking your rental home six to twelve months before your vacation dates is recommended. Winter holidays are excellent times to plan and reserve your rental home.
• Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property manager or host whether your group qualifies for a price reduction.
• Property management companies usually offer renters an option to buy trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which will generally cost anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any days missed as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel stay or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance can be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for additional information.
• Find a copy of your local visitors guide when you arrive at the rental property. If your rental property doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers. In addition to great local information, visitor guide magazines contain discounts for local restaurants, attractions, and tours.

Filter your rental search:

• Start by selecting your a vacation week and a maximum budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and the bed configuration your family needs. Yellow Lotus~Heated Pool, Hot Tub has 6 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our Currituck rental home search.
• Specific details about bedrooms and bed types is generally accessible on booking pages. If you don't see them listed, email the property management company before you book your rental. Remember that most properties list the maximum guest capacity, which often includes sofa beds. You'll need to work out what is suitable for your family.
• If there's a certain Currituck destination you simply love, keep an eye out for rentals that are either nearby, or those that cater especially to your needs.
• Suitable accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for guests with disabilities. Make certain to ask about wheel chair entry, pool lifts and specialized equipment needs.
• Some rental properties allow pets, but others do not. Allowable types of pet, weight and breeds may be restricted, and additional fees may apply. Ask your host about allowable breeds and types before booking.

More tips for your visit:

• We recommend storing the owner's information in your smartphone and wallet.
• Make a record of any issues with the rental during check in, and immediately contact the owner. We specifically recommend e-mails and text messages, as they usually contain time stamps that are valuable if damages are assessed.
• Property managers are available to help! Don't be shy to ask any questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Be respectful. Often, surrounding homes are filled by local residents. Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking regulations is the right thing to do.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Neighbors 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 bird watching?
• Keep the property locked while you're away! Don't let thieves ruin your trip.
• Upon check-out, complete a final walk-through to confirm you have not forget any personal items. Remember to check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden treasure. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Inspect the rental a final time and keep an eye out for damage. We advise walking through with the host whenever possible. If the property manager isn't available, ensure that you take photographs of the rental to record its condition at check-out.
• Remember to leave a review! Hosts rely on great reviews to drive more bookings. They'll be grateful for your feedback. Alternatively, if something wasn't as described, other vacationers will be thankful you shared your experience and help them have the best future vacation. Be fair with your review. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the property manager could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded reasonably to fix it.
