Tricks and tips to get the optimal Kill Devil Hills vacation rental experience:

Get the most from your budget:

• Summer time is high season in the Kill Devil Hills area. Book your vacation in the Fall or Spring to get the benefit of beautiful weather while saving money and avoiding crowded roads, restaurants, and activities. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, or to book a beach front rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during the Summer months.
• Book your rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules usually become available twelve months in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many groups reserve their Summer rental homes during holiday gatherings. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Property managers sometimes offer special rates for veterans and active duty military. Make sure to check with your property manager to see if discounts are available for your group.
• Management companies and individual rental owners usually offer their guests an option to add trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which generally will cost you between 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any days missed as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for more information.
• Many property management companies and vacation rental houses supply Kill Devil Hills area visitor guides which often include money-saving deals, either offered independently by local businesses, or through a relationship between the rental management company and the business itself. You can also find visitors guide and coupon books at local shops and grocery stores.

Filter your rental search:

• Start by selecting a vacation week and a max budget.
• Decide how many bedrooms and the configuration your group requires. 5159 The Sandy Pelican * 3 Min Walk to Beach has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Precise information about bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is often available on booking pages. Otherwise, reach out to the property owner before you book the vacation property. Remember that most property listings specify maximum guest capacity, which typically includes pull out couches in living rooms.
• If there's a particular Kill Devil Hills destination you love, keep an eye out for rentals that are either close by, or those that cater to your needs.
• Appropriate accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for those with limited mobility. Make certain to inquire about specialized equipment and wheel chair accessibility.
• If your group is vacationing with pets, you'll need to search for a pet-friendly rental. Get details on breed, weight, and type requirements. Often, hosts require additional pet deposits and fees.

Have a fantastic stay:

• Add the owner's information to your smartphone. Take a copy of arrival/departure procedures.
• To make sure that damages aren't linked to your family's visit, record any problem areas upon check in. Contact the host immediately to document your findings. If there is a dispute, having the recorded concerns and contact attempts will be useful.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a garage door opener, television set or thermostat. Contact your owner. They are there to help! A brief phone call can prevent quite a few difficulties.
• Respect the neighborhood. Frequently, adjacent homes are occupied by permanent residents. Respecting late-night noise limits and parking regulations reduces conflict and allows everyone to enjoy their day.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Neighbors can usually help. Who better to ask where to get the best breakfast in town, have a great night out, or the best spots for bird watching?
• Ensure you protect the rental owner (and your things!) by locking the property while you are away, just like you would back home.
• Re-check every room of the rental property to confirm that you've packed all personal items at check-out. Make sure to check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden belongings. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Inspect the rental one final time and look for any damage. We recommend walking through with the property manager whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the host is not available, take video of the rental to record its condition.
• Did you have a fantastic stay? Many rental websites make it easy for customers to provide comments. If your rental and/or host was wonderful, they would love to hear about it. If anything was defective and they failed to correct it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make it a point as part of your review.
