Tips and Tricks for getting the perfect Kill Devil Hills rental home experience:

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

• Book your vacation home as soon as possible. Rental schedules often become available a year in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many groups book their Summer rental homes during holiday gatherings. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Book your Kill Devil Hills rental home in the Fall or Spring shoulder seasons to enjoy 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 unavailable during June, July, and August.
• Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property manager or host if your group qualifies for a reduced rate.
• Property management companies typically offer their guests an option to buy vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which will generally cost 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed time as a result of medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance can be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for specifics.
• Look for your local visitors guide upon checking in. If your rental property doesn't have one, you can find them at local grocery stores and visitor centers. In addition to great information, visitors guide magazines have offers and deals for nearby tours, shops, and attractions.

How to pick the best rental home:

• Start by having your group commit to dates and a maximum budget.
• Decide how many beds and the configuration you need. Kill Devil Hills: Ocean View & 2 Min Walk to Beach has 4 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms.
• Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is generally available on booking websites. If not, call the property manager before you book the vacation property. Remember that most listings specify the max. guest capacity, which typically includes pull-out couches. You will need to work out what is best for your vacation family.
• If your group is bringing pets, you will need a pet-friendly property. Request details on breed, weight, and type restrictions. Be aware that some property managers charge pet deposits and fees.
• Looking for particular amenities? Most rental search websites include search filters for amenities. Use these filters to your advantage to find the perfect rental home.
• Suitable accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for persons with a disability. Confirm all required amenities are available before booking.

Tips for a smooth stay:

• We recommend storing the host's information in your smartphone.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a fireplace, elevator or appliance. Contact your host. They are there to help! A brief text message can prevent lots of difficulties.
• Protect the owner (and your things!) by keeping the rental locked up when you are gone, just like you would back home.
• To ensure that damages aren't linked to your visit, inspect the property for any problem areas during arrival. Make contact with the property manager immediately to document any issues. If there is a dispute about who is responsible, having the recorded issues and contact attempts will be valuable.
• Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking regulations can make a stay significantly more pleasurable. Be a good neighbor. You will increase your chance to make local friends, and resident neighbors are often a fantastic resource to find the best local restaurants, beaches, and hangouts.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Locals can typically help. Who better to ask where to rent beach equipment, have a great night out, or the best spots for BBQ?
• Just prior to departing, complete a walk-through to make sure you did not forget any personal items. Check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden belongings. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Remember to leave a review! Property owners rely on excellent feedback to compel new bookings. They'll be thankful for your feedback. Alternatively, if something went wrong, other vacationing families will be thankful you shared your feedback and help them have the best future vacation. Please be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the host had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded reasonably to remedy it.
