Tips and Tricks to get the best vacation property experience:

When to visit Waves & When to book:

• Book your vacation rental as early as possible. Rental schedules usually become available 12 months in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many groups reserve their Summer vacations during holiday get-togethers. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• To find the best value, consider shifting your group's vacation dates to the Spring or Fall shoulder seasons. May, September, and even October offer warmer temperatures, , and greatly reduced traffic. Many vacationers use this strategy to reserve larger homes, or to reserve an oceanfront rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during the high season. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Hatteras vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation near the ocean? Thanksgiving and Christmas are great times to gather with loved ones at your favorite beach.
• Owners sometimes offer promotional rates for veterans. Check with your host or property manager to see if discounts are available for your group.
• Booking websites frequently offer guests an option to obtain trip insurance. Trip insurance, which normally will cost between 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed trip time as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance can be a a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for additional information.
• Look for your local visitors guide when you check-in. If your rental doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local shops and fuel stations. In addition to great information, visitors guide magazines contain discounts for nearby tours, shops, and attractions.

How to pick the best vacation rental:

• Select a designated group leader, choose your vacation dates, and choose a budget.
• Note the number bedrooms and the bed configuration your group needs. Semi-Oceanfront Waves - Dog Friendly, Private Pool, Hot Tub has 7 bedrooms and 8 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our Hatteras vacation rental search.
• Precise details about bedrooms and bed types is normally available on booking pages. Otherwise, email the property owner before reserving the property. Note that most properties list the max. guest capacity, which usually includes sofa beds and bunks.
• If your family is bringing pets, you'll need to find a pet-friendly property. Get specifics on breed, weight, and type requirements. Be aware that some property owners charge pet deposits and fees.
• Are you visiting for a single event? Use a map search to find nearby properties.
• Suitable accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for the less-mobile. Confirm all required amenities are available before booking

Additional considerations:

• Be sure you get the owner's phone number and check in/check out procedures for your rental property.
• Hosts are available to help! Feel free to ask any questions during your stay.
• Keep your rental home locked while you're away! Don't let thieves ruin your family vacation.
• Note any issues with the rental during check in, and immediately send them to the property manager. We specifically recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain built-in time stamps that are valuable if damages are assessed.
• Respecting quiet hours and parking regulations can make a stay significantly more pleasurable. You will enhance your chance to make local friends, and resident neighbors are often a fantastic resource to find the best local spots.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Residents can usually point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to find the fresh catch of the day, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for shopping?
• Re-check every room of the property to make sure that you've packed all personal items on check-out day. Remember to check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden belongings. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Please make sure to walk through the property a final time and look for any damage. We advise walking through with the property manager whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the property manager isn't available, take photos and video of the property to record its condition at check-out.
• Remember to leave feedback! Property managers rely on excellent ratings to stimulate future reservations. They'll be thankful for your review. Alternatively, if something wasn't as described, other vacationers will appreciate that you share your experience and help them have the best future vacation. Remember to be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the property manager could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded quickly to remedy it.
