How to find the best Hatteras rental home experience:

Get the most from your vacation rental budget:

• Summer months are the most expensive season in Hatteras. Reserve your rental home in the Spring or Fall to get the benefit of gorgeous weather while saving money and avoiding crowds. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, or to book an oceanfront vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable during the Summer months. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Hatteras vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday on the coast? Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with loved ones at the beach.
• The sooner your group can book a rental home, the easier your search will be. The best properties are booked very early. Reserving your rental home up to twelve months before your vacation is recommended. Winter holidays are excellent times to search for and book your vacation rental.
• Some property management companies offer discounts for veterans and active duty military. Check with your property manager to see if special discounts are available for your family before you book.
• Property management companies typically offer renters an option to obtain trip insurance. Trip insurance, which generally will cost 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed days as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for details.
• Many property management companies and vacation rental houses supply Hatteras area visitor guides which include coupons, either offered directly by local businesses, or through a relationship between the rental management company and the business itself. You can also find visitors guide and coupon books at local gas stations and shopping centers.

How to select the best vacation rental:

• To start, have your group select date ranges and a budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and the bed configuration your group needs. SUMMER SAVINGS - Premier Oceanfront Dog Friendly Home w/ Pool, Hot Tub, Elevator has 9 bedrooms and 9 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our Hatteras rental home search.
• Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is normally accessible online. Otherwise, contact the property owner before booking the home. Remember that most listings specify the max. guest capacity, which frequently includes sofa beds and bunks. You will need to work out what is right for your vacation group.
• Does your family require unique amenities? Most rental search websites include search filters with amenity lists.
• Proper accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for persons with disabilities. Confirm all necessary amenities are available before reserving a rental.
• Some rental properties allow pets, and some do not. Acceptable types of pet, size and breeds may be restricted, and added charges may apply. Ask the property manager about allowable breeds and types before booking.

Additional considerations:

• Review check in & check out procedures before traveling. Take a printed copy, and add a note with the instructions to your phone.
• Note any issues with the rental at check in, and immediately e-mail them to the host. We especially recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain built-in time stamps that can be useful if a dispute arises.
• Property managers are great sources of help! Feel free to ask any questions during your stay.
• Respect the neighborhood. Often times, surrounding homes are filled by local residents. Respecting quiet hours and parking rules can make a stay significantly more pleasurable.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Residents can typically 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 on the town, or the best spots for fine dining?
• Lock your vacation home while you are out. Protect the owner's property and your things!
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before you drive away, take a walk through the property to reconfirm you've collected all personal items. Check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden treasure. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• After your trip, leave a review! Property managers rely on great reviews to inspire new bookings. They'll be thankful for your feedback. Alternatively, if something went wrong, other vacationing families will appreciate that you share your review and help them have the best future vacation. Be fair with your review. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the host had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded quickly to solve it.
