Rental property booking tips and tricks:

Find your perfect vacation home:

• Book your vacation home as soon as possible. Rental schedules usually become available twelve months in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many groups book their Summer rentals during holiday gatherings. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Summertime is the most expensive season in coastal NC. Booking a rental in the Fall or Spring shoulder seasons is a good way to save money on your vacation. Rental rates are lower, and you'll find a better selection of acceptable properties. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Hatteras vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday on the coast? Christmas, Thanksgiving, and New Years Eve are great times to gather with friends and family at the beach.
• Property managers sometimes offer discounts for veterans and active duty military. It's always a good idea to check with your host or property manager to see if special offers are available for your group before you book.
• Booking websites typically offer renters an option to add vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which commonly will cost anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed trip time as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance might be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for specifics.
• Often, management companies supply Hatteras area visitor guides that include special offers, either offered independently by local companies, or by way of a relationship with the rental management company and the business itself. You can also find Hatteras visitors guide and coupon books at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers.

Narrow your Search:

• Select a group lead, select your vacation week, and select a budget.
• Note the number beds and the bed configuration you need. A waterman's paradise with sound access on Hatteras Island! has 4 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed types is often accessible on booking websites. If not, email the host before you book the vacation property. Remember that most listings specify the max. guest capacity, which often includes pull-out couches and bunk beds. You'll need to establish which bed configuration is optimal for your vacation group.
• If your family is vacationing with pets, filter your search for a pet-friendly property. Get details on breed, size, and type requirements. Be aware that some property managers charge additional pet fees.
• Looking for specific amenities? Most rental websites include search filters with amenity lists. Use these filters to your advantage to find the perfect rental home.
• Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for guests that require the use of a wheelchair. .

During your stay:

• Store the owner's information in your smartphone and wallet.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a fireplace, elevator or washer/dryer. Contact your owner. They are there to help! A brief phone call prevents quite a few concerns.
• Lock your rental property while you are gone! Don't let crooks spoil your trip.
• To make sure that no damages are attributed to your visit, inspect for any problem areas upon your arrival. Contact the rental manager right away to relay your findings. If there is a dispute about who is responsible, having a record of issues and contact attempts will be valuable.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like disagreeable visitors disrupting your quiet neighborhood. Practice the golden rule for best judgement. Happy residents may even recommend great local food and attractions you would've not otherwise known about!
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Locals can frequently 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?
• Just prior to departing, take a walk-through to confirm you have not forget any personal items. Re-check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden items. Clean out the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Inspect the rental one final time and scan for damage. We advise walking through with the property manager whenever you can. If the property manager isn't available, take video of the rental to record its condition at check-out.
• Did you have a wonderful time? Most rental management companies make it easy for clients to provide reviews. If your rental and/or host was wonderful, they would love to hear it. If anything was wrong and they failed to address it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make it a point as part of your comments.
