Tips for getting the perfect Kill Devil Hills vacation home experience:

When to book & When to go:

• Summertime is the most expensive season in the Kill Devil Hills area. Reserve your rental property in the Fall or Spring shoulder seasons to get the benefit of beautiful weather while saving money and avoiding crowds. Many vacationers use this method to find larger homes within budget, or to book a beach front vacation rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during the Summer. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Kill Devil Hills vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday on the coast? Christmas, Thanksgiving, and New Years Eve are great times to gather with family and friends at the beach.
• The earlier your group can book a rental home, the better your selection will be. The most desirable vacation homes are reserved early. Booking your vacation rental up to 12 months before your vacation is recommended. Holidays such as Christmas and Thanksgiving are excellent times to search for and book your rental.
• Some hosts and property managers offer special rates for active duty military and veterans. Make sure to check with your property manager to see if special discounts are available for your group.
• Booking websites often offer renters an option to purchase vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which costs between 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed trip time as a result of medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance can be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for additional information.
• Find a copy of your local Kill Devil Hills visitors guide when you arrive at the rental property. If your rental property doesn't have one, you can find them at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers. In addition to great information, visitors guide magazines have deals for nearby tours and attractions.

Make a plan and pick your prefectrental home:

• First, have your family agree to vacation dates and a maximum budget.
• Note the number bedrooms and the configuration you need. 5159 The Sandy Pelican * 3 Min Walk to Beach has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Specific information regarding bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is commonly accessible on booking websites. If not, contact the property management company before you book the vacation home. Note that most properties list maximum guest capacity, which often includes sofa beds and bunks. You will need to determine what is suitable for your group.
• Are you visiting for a specific event or attraction? If so, use a map search to browse nearby properties.
• Appropriate accessibility can make or break a vacation for persons with disabilities. Confirm all required amenities are available before reserving a rental.
• Some properties allow pets, and others do not. Acceptable types of dog or cat, size and breeds may be restricted, and additional fees may apply. Ask the property management company about your furry family members before booking.

Additional considerations:

• Add the owner's information to your phone. Take a copy of check in/check out procedures.
• Note any damages to the property upon arrival, and immediately contact the owner. We especially recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain time stamps that can be valuable if damages are attributed to your stay.
• Property managers are available to help! Feel free to ask questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking regulations can make a stay more pleasurable. You'll enhance your chance to make some new local friends, and resident neighbors are often a great source for finding the best local spots.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Neighbors can frequently help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to spend a rainy day, have a great night out, or the best spots for crabbing?
• Keep the property locked while you are away! Don't let crooks spoil your trip.
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before you drive away, walk through the rental property to reconfirm you've collected all belongings. Make sure to check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden belongings. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Did you have a excellent time? Most rental home management companies make it easy for clients to provide reviews. If your rental and/or property manager was great, they will likely appreciate your kind words. If anything was imperfect 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 feedback.
