KEY NOTES
Each year we keep making improvements to the property to give our tenants a well maintained home for their summer vacation.

I) This past fall we installed a new sod lawn (with irrigation system)....to eliminate those nasty sand spurs that reek havoc on kids's bare feet. And we installed new flower beds in the front and rear of the lot. We also installed a new dishwasher

The year before we installed new carpet in the bungalow. The year before that a new upgraded all vinyl deck with rain scape system to keep the mid level deck out of the rain. Before that ....a new washer and dryer. Before that a new bespoke outdoor shower.

We are constantly upgrading and improving the bungalow for all to appreciate.

Tips to get the very best vacation rental experience:

Sticking to your rental budget:

• Book your rental in Spring or Fall to get the benefit of gorgeous weather while saving money and avoiding crowds. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, or to reserve an oceanfront rental that would otherwise be unavailable during the Summer months.
• Reserve your rental as early as possible. Rental schedules usually open twelve months in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many groups reserve their Summer vacation rentals during Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years Eve gatherings. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Some hosts offer rate reductions for veterans and active duty military. It's always a good idea to check with your host or property manager to see if discounts are available for your group.
• Booking websites often offer customers an option to add vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which commonly will cost anywhere between 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed trip time as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel stay or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for details.
• Often, property management companies and vacation rental houses supply Kill Devil Hills area visitor guides which will include special offers, either offered directly by local businesses, or by way of a partnership between the property management company and the business itself. You can also find Kill Devil Hills visitors guide and coupon books at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers.

Filter your rental search:

• Select a designated group leader, select your trip dates, and choose a budget.
• Decide how many bedrooms and the bed configuration your family needs. Perfect Getaway - 2 minute walk straight to the Beach has 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our rental home search.
• Precise details about bedrooms and bed types is often available on booking pages. Otherwise, contact the property management company before booking your home. Note that most listings specify maximum guest capacity, which usually includes sofa beds and bunks.
• Is your family looking for special amenities? Most rental search websites include search filters for amenities.
• Suitable accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for those with limited mobility. Confirm all required amenities are included before reserving a rental.
• If your group is traveling with pets, filter your search for a pet-friendly property. Ask for specifics on breed, size, and type requirements. Some property owners charge additional pet fees.

Have a fantastic stay:

• Be sure you get the property manager's contact number and entry/exit procedures for your rental property. We recommend storing the manager's contact information in your smartphone.
• To make sure that no damages are linked to your stay, make a record of any problem areas during arrival. Contact the property manager right away to report any pre-existing damages. If there is a dispute, having a record of concerns and contact attempts will be valuable.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a fireplace, A/V setup or kitchen appliance. Contact your property manager. They are there to help! A brief telephone call prevents quite a few issues.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like obnoxious visitors bothering your peaceful home life. Practice the golden rule for best judgement. Happy residents may even recommend great beaches and places you would have not otherwise known!
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Neighbors can usually point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to spend a rainy day, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fishing?
• Keep the property locked while you are gone! Don't let crooks spoil your trip.
• Just prior to departing, complete a walk-through to confirm you have not forget anything. Re-check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden items. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Please make sure to walk through the property a final time and keep an eye out for damage. We suggest inspecting the property with the host whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the host isn't available, ensure that you take video of the property to record its condition at check-out.
• After your trip, leave a review! Property managers rely on good ratings to inspire more bookings. They'll be grateful for your feedback. Alternatively, if something wasn't as described, other families will appreciate that you share your feedback and help them have the best future vacation. Be fair with your review. 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.
