Tricks and tips for getting the perfect Hatteras vacation property experience:

Get the most from your rental budget:

• Reserve your vacation home as soon as possible. Rental schedules generally become available twelve months in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many families reserve their Summer rental homes during Winter holiday get-togethers. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Summer months are the most expensive season in Hatteras. To get the largest vacation home within budget, we highly recommend booking in the Fall or Spring. You'll enjoy lower rates, greater selection, beautiful weather and the absence of giant crowds at local restaurants, tours, and activities. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Hatteras vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday near the ocean? Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with family and friends at your favorite beach.
• Property managers sometimes offer special rates for veterans and active duty military. Check with your host or property manager to see if special discounts are available for your group.
• Management companies and individual rental owners usually offer customers an option to purchase trip insurance. Trip insurance, which will generally cost between 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed trip time as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather, as well as hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel stay or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for details.
• Look for your local visitors guide when you arrive at the rental property. If your rental home doesn't have one, you can find them at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers. In addition to great local stories, visitors guides contain coupons for nearby accommodations and attractions.

How to select the best vacation home in the Hatteras area:

• First, have your family agree to vacation dates and a spending budget.
• Determine how many beds and the configuration your group requires. Oceanfront Beach House with Private Swimming Pool and Hot Tub has 9 bedrooms and 11 bathrooms.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed types is generally available on booking websites. If they are not listed, email or call the property owner before you reserve the rental. Remember that most listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which typically includes sofa beds.
• Traveling with pets? Many vacation homes allow animals, but guidelines and restrictions apply. Allowable pet type, breed, and size are often limited. Ask your property manager before booking, and study your rental agreement! Pet fees or charges applied to your invoice.
• If there's a specific Hatteras beach you crave, keep an eye out for rentals that are either nearby, or those that cater to your needs.
• Appropriate accessibility can make or break a vacation for guests that require the use of a wheelchair. Make certain to ask about specialized equipment and wheel chair accessibility.

Have a great stay:

• Add the host's information to your smartphone. Print and take a copy of check in/check out procedures.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a garage door opener, elevator or WIFI setup. Contact your host. They are there to help! A brief phone call can prevent quite a few issues.
• Lock your vacation home while you are out. Protect the owner's property and your stuff!
• Upon check-in, document any damages to the property and immediately alert the host. Record all coorespondence.
• Be respectful. Frequently, adjacent homes are filled by local residents. Respecting quiet hours and parking regulations can make a stay significantly more pleasurable.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Residents can frequently help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to enjoy a steak with a view, have a great night out, or the best spots for BBQ?
• On check-out day, take a walk-through to confirm you have not leave anything behind. Remember to check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden items. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Did your group have a terrific vacation? Many rental management companies make it easy for travelers to provide comments. If your rental and/or host was wonderful, they would love to hear it. If anything was imperfect and they failed to address it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make a note as part of your comments.
