Our top Rodanthe rental home tips and tricks:

When to book a Hatteras rental & When to go:

• Book your Hatteras rental in Fall or Spring to get the benefit of warm weather while saving money and avoiding crowded roads, restaurants, and activities. Many vacationers use this strategy to find larger homes within budget, or to reserve a beach front rental that would otherwise be unavailable during June, July, and August.
• Book your vacation home as soon as possible. Rental schedules generally open a year in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many groups book their Summer rentals during Christmas and Thanksgiving get-togethers. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective host if your group qualifies for a reduced rate.
• Management companies and individual rental owners usually offer renters an option to buy trip insurance. Trip insurance, which generally costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed trip time as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for more information.
• Find a copy of your local Hatteras 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 local articles, travel guides contain coupons for nearby accommodations and attractions.

Selecting and booking the rightvacation home:

• Determine how many bedrooms and the bed configuration your family needs. Beautiful Sunsets, Short walk to the Beach, Pet Friendly! has 2 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms.
• Specific information about bedrooms and bed counts is normally accessible on booking pages. If they are not listed, call the property manager before reserving your home. Remember that most property listings specify the max. guest capacity, which typically includes sofa beds.
