Vacation rental booking tips:

When to book & When to go:

The sooner you can book a vacation rental, the better your selection will be. The most desirable vacation rentals are booked very early. Booking your rental home six to twelve months before your vacation is recommended. Holiday gatherings are excellent times to plan and reserve your rental.
To find the best value, change your trip dates to the Spring or Fall seasons. May, September, and October offer great weather, , and greatly reduced traffic.
Veterans and Active Duty Military members may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective vacation rental company or host if your group qualifies for a special rate.
Management companies and individual rental owners usually offer their guests an option to add vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which costs between 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed vacation time as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance might be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for details.
Look for your local visitors guide when you arrive at the rental property. If your rental doesn't have one, you can find them at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers. In addition to great articles, travel guides have deals for nearby shops and restaurants.

How to pick the best vacation home:

First and foremost, have your group select vacation dates and a budget.
Decide how many bedrooms and what type of bedroom configuration you need. Historic Cottage + Oceanside + Nags Head NC + Ridge Retreat II has 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our rentals search.
Precise information about bedrooms and bed types is regularly accessible on booking pages. If they are not listed, email the property manager before booking your rental. Remember that most listings specify the max. guest capacity, which oftentimes includes sofa beds in living rooms. You will need to establish what configuration is optimal for your vacation family.
Some properties allow pets, and others do not. Acceptable types of pet, weight and breeds may be restricted, and added charges may apply. Ask the owner about allowable breeds and types before booking.
Are you visiting for a specific attraction? Use a map search to browse nearby properties.
Appropriate accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for those with limited mobility. .

Considerations for your stay:

Add the property manager's contact information to your phone. Take a copy of check in/check out procedures.
Hosts are there to help! Feel free to ask questions during your stay.
Lock your rental while you're away. Protect the owner's property and your stuff!
To make certain that damages aren't attributed to your family's visit, note any problem areas during check in. E-mail the rental manager right away to document your findings. If there is a dispute, having a record of problems and contact attempts will be valuable.
Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like disrespectful visitors bothering your home life. Practice the golden rule for common sense. If they like you, locals might even recommend great beaches and attractions you would have not otherwise known about!
Don't forget to... Ask a local! Neighbors can typically help. Who better to ask where to enjoy a steak with a view, have a great night out, or the best spots for crabbing?
Double-check every room of the rental property to confirm that you've packed all of your family's items on check-out day. Check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden belongings. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
Inspect the property one final time and look for damage. We advise walking through with the property manager whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the manager isn't available, take video and pictures of the rental to record its condition at check-out.
Leave a review! Property owners rely on excellent ratings to drive future bookings. They'll be grateful for your review. Alternatively, if something went wrong, other families will appreciate that you share your review find their best rental home. Please be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the property manager had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded expeditiously to remedy it.
