Tricks and tips to get the best rental experience:

Finding the best value:

• Summertime is high season in Waves. To get the best value, try shifting your family's Hatteras vacation week to the Spring or Fall months. May, September, and October offer warmer temperatures, fewer crowds, and reduced traffic.
• Reserve your rental as early as possible. Rental schedules generally open a year in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many groups reserve their Summer rental homes during Christmas and Thanksgiving get-togethers. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property manager or host if your group qualifies for a price reduction or discount.
• Management companies and individual rental owners usually offer customers an option to obtain vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which costs between 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed time as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for more information.
• Often, rental management companies and vacation rental houses supply Hatteras area visitor guides that include special deals, either offered directly by local companies, or by way of a partnership between the property management company and the business itself. You can also find Hatteras area magazine and coupon books at local gas stations and shopping centers.

Planning, selecting, and booking your Hatteras rental home:

• Select your dates and spending budget.
• Sleeps 12 has 6 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our Hatteras rental home search.
• Precise information regarding bedrooms and bed counts is commonly accessible on booking websites. If you don't see them listed, email the property owner before booking the home. Remember that most listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which oftentimes includes sofa beds and bunks.
• Visiting for a single event or attraction? Try a map search to locate nearby rentals.
• Proper accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for those with limited mobility. Confirm all necessary amenities are included before booking.
• If your family is bringing pets, you'll need to search for a pet-friendly rental. Ask for details on breed, weight, and type requirements. Some property owners charge pet deposits and fees.

Some things to know before you go:

• Add the host's contact information to your phone. Take a copy of arrival/departure procedures.
• Make a record of any issues with the property upon arrival, and immediately contact the property manager. We especially recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain built-in time stamps that are beneficial if a dispute is filed.
• Property managers are there to help! Don't be shy to ask any questions during your stay.
• Respecting quiet hours and parking policies can make a stay significantly more pleasurable. Be a good neighbor. You will magnify your chance to make some new local friends, and resident neighbors are a fantastic resource to find the best local beaches and hangouts.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Local residents can frequently help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to spend a rainy day, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fine dining?
• Lock your rental while you're out and about. Protect the owner's property and your things!
• Upon check-out, complete a final walk-through to make sure you have not forget anything. Check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden items. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Did you have a excellent vacation? Many vacation rental websites make it easy for guests to provide comments. If your rental property and/or property manager was great, they always love to hear your praise. If anything was imperfect and they failed to fix it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make it a point as part of your comments.
