Tips and Tricks to get the perfect rental experience:

When to visit & When to book:

• June, July, and August are high season in Hatteras. To find the best value, try shifting your vacation dates to the Spring or Fall seasons. May, September, and October offer warmer temperatures, , and reduced traffic. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, or to book an oceanfront rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during the Summer months.
• The sooner you can reserve a vacation rental, the better your selection will be. The best properties are reserved early. Reserving your vacation home six - twelve months before your travel dates is recommended. Winter holidays are excellent times to search for and reserve your rental home.
• Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective vacation rental company or host whether your vacationing group qualifies for a price reduction or discount.
• Property managers frequently offer their guests an option to add vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which generally will cost you between 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed time as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance can be a a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for program terms and fees.
• Find a copy of your local Hatteras visitors guide upon checking in. 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 articles, visitor guides have coupons for local accommodations and attractions.

Use filters to narrow your rental search:

• Start by choosing the best vacation week and a maximum budget.
• Decide how many bedrooms and what type of bedroom configuration your group requires. Semi-Oceanfront, Private Pool, Hot Tub, Ocean Views, Arcade, Dog-Friendly has 5 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our Hatteras rentals search.
• Precise information about bedrooms and bed counts is almost always available online. If they are not listed, call the property owner before booking the property. Remember that most property listings specify the max. guest capacity, which typically includes pull-out couches and bunk beds.
• Are you visiting for a single event? Use a map search to locate nearby properties.
• Appropriate accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for persons with disabilities. Confirm all necessary amenities are included before booking.
• If your family is traveling with pets, filter your search for a pet-friendly vacation rental. Make sure to ask for details on breed, weight, and type requirements. Note that some property owners charge additional pet fees.

Know before you go:

• Review check in & check out procedures before leaving home. Save the instructions to your phone, and take a printed backup.
• At Check-in, document any issues with the rental property and immediately alert the owner. Record all coorespondence.
• Hosts are available to help! Don't be shy to ask questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Respect your neighbors. Frequently, surrounding homes are filled by permanent residents. Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking regulations is the right thing to do.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Neighbors can usually point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to go for the best drinks, have a great night out, or the best spots for fishing?
• Lock your rental property while you are away! Don't let crooks spoil your trip.
• Re-check the property to confirm that you've packed all personal items on check-out day. Remember to check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden belongings. Clean out the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Did you have a fantastic vacation? Many rental home management companies make it easy for travelers to provide comments. If your rental and/or property manager was great, they would love to hear it. If anything was defective and they failed to address it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make it a point as part of your comments.
