Tips and Tricks to get the perfect rental experience:

Getting the best rental home value:

• Summer months are high season in Buxton. To find the best value, try shifting your family's Hatteras vacation dates to the Spring or Fall months. May, September, and October offer pleasant temperatures, fewer crowds, and reduced traffic. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, or to reserve an oceanfront rental that would otherwise be unavailable during June, July, and August.
• The earlier you can book a rental home, the better your selection will be. The most desirable vacation homes are reserved early. Booking your rental property up to 12 months before your vacation is recommended. Christmas, Thanksgiving and New Years Eve are excellent times to search for and reserve your rental property.
• Some hosts offer discounts or promotional rates for active duty military and veterans. Remember to ask your property manager if discounts are available for your group before you book.
• Management companies and individual rental owners usually offer guests an option to obtain trip insurance. Trip insurance, which costs 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed time as a result of medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for more information.
• Find a copy of your local Hatteras area magazine upon checking in. If your rental property doesn't have one, you can find them at local grocery stores and visitor centers. In addition to great local articles, visitor guide magazines contain discounts for nearby accommodations, tours and attractions.

Planning, selecting, and booking a perfect Hatteras vacation home:

• First and foremost, have your group select date ranges and a maximum budget.
• Note the number beds and the configuration your group needs. Storm Cottage- Short Walk to Beach- Community Pool & Spa has 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms.
• Precise information about bedrooms and bed counts & types is generally accessible on booking pages. If you don't see them listed, reach out to the property manager before you book the rental. Remember that most listings specify the max. guest capacity, which typically includes sofa beds in living rooms.
• If there's a certain Hatteras destination you love, keep an eye out for rentals that are either close by, or those that cater especially to your needs.
• Suitable accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for guests with disabilities. Remember to confirm all necessary amenities are available before reserving a rental
• If your family is bringing pets, you'll need to search for a pet-friendly vacation rental. Ask for details on breed, weight, and type requirements. Be aware that some property owners charge additional pet fees.

More tips for your stay:

• Add the host's information to your smartphone. Understand and take a copy of arrival/departure procedures.
• To make certain damages aren't attributed to your visit, make a record of any problem areas upon your arrival. Make contact with the rental manager right away to relay your findings. If there is a dispute, having a record of issues and contact attempts will be useful.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a fireplace, stereo or WIFI setup. Contact your owner. They are there to help! A brief telephone call prevents quite a few concerns.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like unpleasant vacationers disrupting your peaceful home life. Use the golden rule for common sense. If they like you, locals might even recommend great beaches and places you would have never otherwise known!
• 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?
• Lock your rental home while you are out. Protect your property!
• Double-check the vacation property to confirm that you've packed everything at check-out. Remember to check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden belongings. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Inspect the property a final time and keep an eye out for any damage. We recommend walking through with the property manager whenever you can. If the host isn't available, remember to take pictures of the property to record its condition.
• Did your family have a excellent vacation? Many rental home management companies make it easy for travelers to provide reviews. If your property and/or property manager was wonderful, they would love to hear it. If anything was defective and they failed to correct it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make a note as part of your review.
