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

Finding the best value:

• Booking your Kill Devil Hills vacation rental in Fall or Spring months is our favorite way to save money on your rental home. Rental rates are lower, and you'll find a larger selection of acceptable properties. Many vacationers use this method to find larger homes within budget, or to reserve an oceanfront rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during the Summer.
• The earlier you can book a vacation rental, the easier your search will be. The best properties are booked very early. Booking your rental home six to twelve months before your vacation dates is recommended. Holiday gatherings are excellent times to search for and book your rental property.
• Some hosts and property managers offer rate reductions for active duty military and veterans. Remember to ask your host or property manager if special discounts are available for your group before you book.
• Booking websites usually offer customers an option to add trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which generally will cost 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any days missed as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel stay or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance can be a a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for more information.
• Find a copy of your local Kill Devil Hills visitors guide when you check-in. If your rental home doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers. In addition to great articles, travel guide magazines contain discounts for local accommodations and attractions.

How to select the best vacation rental in Kill Devil Hills:

• To start, have your family choose vacation dates and a max budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and the bed configuration you need. 5508 Southern Comfort * Dog Friendly * Shared Pool has 4 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our Kill Devil Hills vacation rental search.
• Precise information regarding bedrooms and bed counts & types is commonly accessible on booking websites. If you don't see them listed, call the property management company before you book the vacation home. Remember that most property listings specify the max. guest capacity, which frequently includes pull-out couches. You will need to determine what configuration is right for your group.
• Are you visiting for a single attraction? Use a map search to find nearby properties.
• Suitable accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for the less-mobile. Remember to confirm all required amenities are available and included before booking
• Are you bringing the family pet? Many vacation homes allow animals, but guidelines and restrictions apply. Type of pet, size and breeds may be limited. Remember to ask the property manager before booking, and study your agreement! Additional pet fees or charges applied to your invoice.

More considerations:

• Store the manager's contact information in your smartphone.
• At Check-in, note any damages to the rental property and immediately contact the property manager. Keep records of all coorespondence.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a fireplace, stereo or WIFI setup. Contact your property manager. They are there to help! A brief text message prevents a lot of difficulties.
• Respecting quiet hours and parking rules can make a stay more pleasurable. Be a good neighbor. You will enhance your chance to make some new local friends, and resident neighbors are often an incredible source for finding the best local restaurants, beaches, and hangouts.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Locals can often point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to book the best tours, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for bird watching?
• Lock your rental home while you are out. Keep your property safe!
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before departing, take a walk through the property to make sure you've collected all belongings. Re-check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden belongings. Clean out the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Inspect the rental one final time and keep an eye out for damages to contents or the property itself. We suggest inspecting the property with the property manager whenever you can. If the host isn't available, take video and pictures of the property to record its condition.
• Did your family have a fantastic time? Many rental managers make it easy for travelers to provide comments. If your rental property and/or property management company was terrific, they would love to hear it. If anything was out of order and they failed to address it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make a note as part of your comments.
