Tips for getting the perfect Kill Devil Hills rental experience:

Cost saving strategies:

• The earlier you can book a rental home, the better your selection will be. The most desirable properties are reserved early. Reserving your vacation property 6-12 months before your travel dates is recommended. Christmas, Thanksgiving and New Years Eve are excellent times to plan and reserve your vacation home.
• Summertime is the most expensive season along the coast of NC. Reserve your rental home in the Spring or Fall 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 book a beach front rental that would otherwise be unavailable during June, July, and August.
• Property managers sometimes offer rate reductions for veterans. Remember to ask your host or property manager if rate reductions are available for your group before you book.
• Booking websites usually offer their guests an option to purchase trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which usually will cost you between 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed trip time as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel stay or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance can be a a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for additional information.
• Often, rental management companies supply Kill Devil Hills area visitors guide magazines which include money-saving offers, either offered independently by local companies, or by way of a partnership between the property management company and the business itself. You can also find Kill Devil Hills visitors guide and coupon books at local gas stations and shopping centers.

Selecting the perfect rental home:

• Choose a group leader, select your trip dates, and select a budget.
• Note the number bedrooms and what type of bedroom configuration you need. 5018 Mike's Beach House * Across Street from Beach has 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms.
• Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts is commonly available online. If they are not listed, email or call the property manager before reserving the home. Remember that most properties list maximum guest capacity, which often includes sofa beds.
• Some rentals allow pets, but others do not. Acceptable types of pet, weight and breeds may be restricted, and additional charges may apply. Ask your host about allowable pet guidelines before booking.
• Are you looking for special amenities? Most rental search websites include search filters for amenities. Amenity filters help you quickly remove less-optimal properties.
• Proper accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for the less-mobile. .

More tips for your stay:

• Add the property manager's contact info to your phone. Print and take a copy of arrival/departure procedures.
• Property managers are great sources of help! Feel free to ask questions during your stay.
• Lock your rental property while you're away! Don't let burglars ruin your vacation.
• Upon check-in, document any issues with the rental property and immediately alert the host. Record all correspondence just in case a dispute arises.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like obnoxious visitors bothering your home life. Employ the golden rule for best judgement. Happy residents may even recommend great local food and scenic spots you would've not otherwise known!
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Locals can often help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to find the best seashells, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for shopping?
• When it's time to leave, complete a walk-through to make sure you did not forget any personal items. Check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden items. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Walk through the rental a final time and look for damage. We advise inspecting the property with the host whenever possible. If the property manager is not available, ensure that you take photographs of the property to record its condition.
• Did your group have a wonderful vacation? Many rental websites make it easy for customers to provide feedback. If your rental and/or property management company was great, they will likely appreciate your kind words. If anything was defective and they failed to fix it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make a note as part of your comments.
