Strategies to get the perfect rental experience:

Get the most from your rental budget:

• In the Hatteras area, The earlier you can reserve a home, the easier your search will be. The most desirable vacation homes are booked early. Booking your vacation property 6-12 months before your vacation dates is recommended. Winter holidays are excellent times to search for and reserve your rental home.
• Summertime is the most expensive season along the coast of NC. Reserve your Hatteras vacation home in Spring or Fall to enjoy beautiful weather while saving money and avoiding crowds. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Hatteras vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation on the coast? Thanksgiving and Christmas are great times to gather with friends and family at the beach.
• Some owners offer special rates for veterans. Make sure to check with your property manager to see if rate reductions are available for your family before you book.
• Management companies and individual rental owners frequently offer guests an option to purchase trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which generally costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed vacation time as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance can be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for additional information.
• Look for your local Hatteras area magazine when you arrive at the rental property. If your rental doesn't have one, you can find them at local grocery stores and visitor centers. In addition to great local stories, visitors guides have discounts for nearby restaurants, attractions, and tours.

How to pick the perfect rental:

• Select your vacation week and max budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and what type of bedroom configuration your group needs. Oceanfront, dog-friendly house with private pool, hot tub, & central AC has 7 bedrooms and 9 bathrooms.
• Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts & types is commonly available on booking pages. Otherwise, contact the property management company before you book your home. Remember that most properties list maximum guest capacity, which typically includes sofa beds.
• If your group is vacationing with pets, search for a property that allows animals. Request specifics on breed, size, and type requirements. Be aware that some property owners charge pet deposits and fees.
• If there's a certain Hatteras attraction you long to visit, keep an eye out for properties that are either close by, or those that cater to your desires.
• Proper accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for guests with disabilities. Make certain to ask about wheel chair entry, pool lifts and specialized equipment needs.

Some things to know before you go:

• Take a copy of the host's contact number and arrival/departure procedures for your . Put the manager's information in your smartphone.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a fireplace, stereo or thermostat. Contact your owner. They are there to help! A brief phone call can prevent quite a few concerns.
• Protect the rental owner (and your stuff!) by locking and securing the home while you are away, just like you would back home.
• Document any damages to the property at check in, and immediately e-mail them to the host. We specifically recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain built-in time stamps that are beneficial if there is a dispute.
• Respect your neighbors. Often, adjacent homes are filled by permanent residents. Respecting noise limits and parking policies can make a stay significantly more pleasurable.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Locals can frequently help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to take kids for a treat, have a great night out, or the best spots for crabbing?
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before you drive away, take a walk through the rental property to make sure you've collected everything. Remember to check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden items. Remove everything from 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 wonderful time? Most rental management companies make it easy for guests to provide feedback. If your property and/or property manager was great, they would love to hear about it. If anything was imperfect and they failed to correct it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make a note as part of your comments.
