Strategies to get the best vacation rental experience:

Sticking to your rental home budget:

Summertime is high season in the Nags Head area. To get the most suitable vacation home for your budget, we suggest reserving in Fall or Spring months. You'll enjoy lower rental rates, greater selection, warm weather and the absence of giant crowds at Nags Head restaurants, beaches, and activities.
Book your vacation home as early as possible. Rental schedules usually open 12 months in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many groups reserve their Summer vacation rentals during Winter holiday gatherings. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
Property managers sometimes offer special rates for veterans and active duty military. Ask your host or property manager if rate reductions are available for your family before you book.
Property managers frequently offer customers an option to add vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which normally costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed time as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as evacuation costs or charges, such as an unanticipated hotel or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance might be a a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for details.
Look for your local visitors guide when you check-in. If your rental doesn't have one, you can find them at local grocery stores and visitor centers. In addition to great local articles, travel guides have money saving offers on nearby accommodations and attractions.

Planning, selecting, and booking a perfect Nags Head rental home:

Start by choosing your a vacation week and a spending budget.
Determine how many beds and what type of bedroom configuration you need. 6138 Island Life Cottage * 1 Mile to Beach has 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our rentals search.
Specific information about bedrooms and bed types is regularly accessible on booking pages. Otherwise, contact the property owner before you book the property. Note that most properties list the max. guest capacity, which oftentimes includes sofa beds in living rooms.
Are you visiting for a single attraction? Try a map search to find nearby properties.
Proper accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for the less-mobile. Confirm all required amenities are included before booking
Some properties allow pets, but some don't. Allowable types of pet, weight and breeds may be restricted, and added charges may apply. Ask the property management company about pet restrictions before booking.

More tips for your visit:

Add the property manager's information to your smartphone. Take a copy of check in/check out procedures.
Record any damages to the property upon arrival, 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 very helpful if a dispute is filed.
Property managers are there to help! Don't be shy to ask questions during your stay.
Be a good neighbor. Often times, adjacent homes are filled by local residents. Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking policies can make a stay significantly more pleasurable.
Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Residents can frequently point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to launch your kayaks, have a great night out, or the best spots for fine dining?
Lock your vacation home while you are away. Protect your property!
Don't leave anything behind! Before you drive away, walk through the rental to confirm you've collected all personal belongings. Remember to check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden belongings. Clean out 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.
Remember to leave a review! Hosts rely on great reviews to stimulate more bookings. They'll be thankful for your feedback. Alternatively, if something went awry, other families will appreciate that you share your review and help them have the best future vacation. Remember to be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the manager could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded quickly to fix it.
