Strategies to get the optimal rental experience:

Find your perfect rental home:

• Book your rental in the Fall or Spring to enjoy gorgeous weather while saving money and avoiding crowded roads, restaurants, and activities. Many vacationers use this strategy to reserve larger homes, or to reserve an oceanfront vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during the high season. 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.
• Book your rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules often open twelve months in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many families reserve their Summer rental homes during Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years Eve gatherings. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Property management companies sometimes offer promotional rates for veterans. Ask your host or property manager if special discounts are available for your group before you book.
• Management companies and individual rental owners often offer their guests an option to add vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which usually will cost between 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed vacation time as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance might be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for specifics.
• Find a copy of your local visitors guide upon arrival. If your rental home doesn't have one, you can find them at local shops and fuel stations. In addition to great information, visitors guides have coupons for local tours and attractions.

Finding the best rental:

• Select a group leader, select your dates, and choose a maximum budget.
• Note the number beds and the bed configuration your family requires. Waterfront/Private Pier, Water Access/Pool&Tennis club/Kayaks/SUP/ping-pong has 5 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms.
• Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is generally accessible online. If not, email or call the property manager before booking your rental. Remember that most listings specify maximum guest capacity, which oftentimes includes pull out couches in living rooms.
• Visiting for a specific event or attraction? Try a map search to locate nearby properties.
• Proper accessibility can make or break a vacation for guests with disabilities. .
• If your group is traveling with pets, you'll need to book a pet-friendly vacation rental. Request specifics on breed, weight, and type restrictions. Note that some property owners require additional pet deposits and fees.

Some things to know before you go:

• Be sure you get the property manager's phone number and entry/exit procedures for your . Put the manager's information in your smartphone.
• Note any issues with the property upon arrival, and immediately e-mail them to the owner. We specifically recommend e-mails and text messages, as they usually contain built-in time stamps that are valuable if a dispute arises.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a garage door opener, A/V setup or appliance. Contact your owner. They are there to help! A brief call can prevent a lot of concerns.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like obnoxious visitors disrupting your peaceful home. Apply the golden rule for best judgement. If they like you, locals might even recommend great beaches and scenic spots you would've not otherwise known about!
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Neighbors can usually help. Who better to ask where to see a beautiful sunrise or sunset, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for bird watching?
• Ensure you protect the owner (and your stuff!) by locking the rental when you are gone, just like you would at home.
• Re-check the rental property to confirm that you've packed all of your family's items at departure. Make sure to check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden belongings. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Inspect the rental one final time and look for any damage. We suggest walking through with the property manager whenever you can. If the manager isn't available, take video of the property to record its condition.
• Did your group have a terrific vacation? Many rental home management companies make it easy for guests to provide comments. If your rental property and/or property manager was great, they will likely appreciate your kind words. If anything was defective and they failed to fix it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make a note as part of your review.
