Vacation rental booking tips:

Finding the best value:

• To find the most suitable rental home within budget, we suggest booking in the Fall or Spring. You'll enjoy lower rental rates, better selection, beautiful weather and the absence of large crowds at Hatteras restaurants, beaches, and activities. Many vacationers use this strategy to find larger homes within budget, or to book an oceanfront rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during the Summer months.
• Reserve your vacation home as early as possible. Rental schedules often open 12 months in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many families book their Summer rental homes during Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years Eve gatherings. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Some hosts offer rate reductions for veterans and active duty military. Ask your property manager if special offers are available for your group.
• Booking websites frequently offer customers an option to add vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which commonly costs 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed time as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance might be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for more information.
• Look for your local Hatteras visitors guide magazine upon checking in. If your rental property doesn't have one, you can find them at local shops and fuel stations. In addition to great local information, travel guides contain deals for local accommodations and attractions.

Make a plan and choose the best Hatteras rental:

• First, have your group choose a vacation week and a max budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and the configuration you need. Soundfront, Dogs Welcome, Boat Slip, Water Access, & Panoramic Sound Views has 4 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Precise details about bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is often available online. If they are not listed, email the property owner before booking the rental. Remember that most property listings specify maximum guest capacity, which frequently includes sofa beds and bunks.
• Looking for special amenities? Most rental websites include search filters for amenities. Amenity filters help you quickly remove less-optimal properties.
• Suitable accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for persons with disabilities. Confirm all necessary amenities are available before reserving a rental.
• Some properties allow pets, but others don't. Allowable types of dog or cat, size and breeds may be restricted, and additional costs may apply. Ask the property management company about pet restrictions before booking.

Have a wonderful stay:

• Review check in & check out procedures before leaving home. Add a note with the directions to your smartphone, and take a printed copy.
• During arrival, document any damages to the rental property and immediately contact the owner. Keep records of all coorespondence.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a hot tub, A/V setup or kitchen appliance. Contact your property manager. They are there to help! A brief telephone call can prevent many problems.
• Be respectful. Frequently, nearby homes are occupied by local residents. Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking policies reduces conflict and allows everyone to enjoy their day.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Locals can often help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to enjoy a steak with a view, have a great night out, or the best spots for bird watching?
• Ensure you protect the property owner (and your stuff!) by keeping the rental locked up when you are out, just like you would at home.
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before departing, take a walk through the property to reconfirm you've collected all personal items. Re-check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden treasure. Clean the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Document the condition of the property at check-out. We recommend taking a video during your final walk-through.
• Did your family have a fantastic stay? Most rental management companies make it easy for travelers to provide reviews. If your rental and/or property manager was wonderful, they always love to hear your praise. If anything was amiss and they failed to address it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make it a point as part of your feedback.
