Tips and Tricks for getting the best Kill Devil Hills vacation home experience:

When to reserve a Kill Devil Hills rental & When to go:

• Reserve your vacation home as early as possible. Rental schedules usually open a year in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many groups book their Summer rental homes during Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years Eve get-togethers. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Reserving a rental home in the Fall or Spring is an excellent way to save money on your rental home. Rental rates are lower, and you'll find a better selection of acceptable properties. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Kill Devil Hills vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation on the coast? Thanksgiving and Christmas are great times to gather with family and friends at the beach.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property owner or host whether your vacationing group qualifies for a price reduction.
• Management companies and individual rental owners frequently offer their guests an option to add trip insurance. Trip insurance, which will generally cost between 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed days as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance can be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for details.
• Find a copy of your local 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 local stories, visitors guide magazines contain money saving offers on local tours and attractions.

Use filters to search efficiently:

• Choose a group leader, select your dates, and choose a spending budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and the configuration your family requires. Breathtaking sound & sunset views from this waterfront home on Colington Island! has 4 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our Kill Devil Hills rentals search.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts is commonly accessible online. If they are not listed, call the property manager before you reserve the vacation home. Remember that most listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which oftentimes includes pull out couches in living rooms.
• Some rentals allow pets, and some do not. Acceptable types of family pet, size and breeds may be restricted, and additional costs may apply. Ask your host about your furry family members before booking.
• If there's an individual Kill Devil Hills beach you are crazy about, look for rentals that are either close by, or those that cater especially to your desires.
• Proper accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for guests that require the use of a wheelchair. Confirm all required amenities are available before booking.

Additional considerations:

• Review check in & check out procedures before traveling. Add a note with the directions to your phone, and take a printed copy.
• Property managers are available to help! Feel free to ask questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Keep the property locked while you're away! Don't let crooks spoil your family vacation.
• Upon arrival, record any issues with the rental property and immediately alert the property manager. Record all correspondence in case a dispute arises.
• Respecting quiet hours and parking policies can make a stay more pleasurable. Be a good neighbor. You'll enhance your chance to make some new local friends, and resident neighbors are an excellent source for finding the best local scenic spots.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Local residents can often point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to order delicious takeout, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for shopping?
• Just prior to departing, complete a final walk-through to confirm you didn't forget anything. Make sure to check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden belongings. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Document the condition of the property at check-out. We recommend taking a video during your final walk-through.
• Did you have a terrific stay? Most rental websites make it easy for customers to provide reviews. If your rental and/or property manager was great, they would love to hear it. If anything was imperfect and they failed to correct it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make it a point as part of your feedback.
