Vacation rental booking tips:

Find your perfect rental home:

Book your vacation rental as early as possible. Rental schedules generally open a year in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many groups reserve their Summer rentals during Winter holiday gatherings. Book before these holidays for best selection.
June, July, and August are the most expensive months in the Kill Devil Hills area. Booking your Kill Devil Hills vacation home in Fall or Spring is our favorite way to save money on your vacation rental. Rental rates are lower, and you'll find a better selection of desirable homes.
Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective vacation rental company or host whether your vacationing group qualifies for a price reduction.
Booking websites typically offer customers an option to purchase vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which costs between 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any days missed as a result of medical-related issues or weather, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unanticipated hotel or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance can be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for additional information.
Find a copy of your local Kill Devil Hills area magazine upon arrival. If your rental property doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local shops and fuel stations. In addition to great local stories, travel guide magazines contain offers and deals for nearby tours, shops, and attractions.

How to pick the perfect rental in Kill Devil Hills:

To start, have your family decide on a vacation week and a max budget.
Note the number bedrooms and the configuration your group needs. Sandbox 8 Bedroom Home in Kitty Hawk Shores has 8 bedrooms and 6 bathrooms.
Specific information regarding bedrooms and bed counts is commonly accessible on booking websites. If you don't see them listed, email the property owner before booking your rental. Remember that most listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which typically includes sofa beds and bunks.
Traveling with pets? Although a number of vacation homes allow pets or animals, guidelines and costs vary per property. Type of pet, size and breeds may be limited. Remember to ask your host before booking, and study your agreement! Pet fees or charges may be applied to your agreement.
Visiting for a specific attraction? Use a map search to locate nearby rentals.
Proper accessibility can make or break a vacation for persons with a disability. Confirm all necessary amenities are available before booking

Additional considerations:

Put the host's information in your smartphone.
Hosts are there to help! Feel free to ask questions before, during, or after your stay.
Protect the property owner (and your stuff!) by locking the property while you are away, just like you would back home.
To make sure no damages are attributed to your stay, note any problem areas upon your arrival. Call the property manager immediately to report any issues. If there is a dispute about who is responsible, having a record of problems and contact attempts will be valuable.
Be respectful of your neighbors. Frequently, nearby homes are occupied by permanent residents. Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking regulations reduces conflict and allows everyone to enjoy their day.
Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Neighbors can typically help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to see a beautiful sunrise or sunset, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fine dining?
On check-out day, take a walk-through to confirm you haven't forget any personal items. Re-check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden items. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
Record a video to document the condition of the property.
Leave a review! Property managers rely on great ratings to compel new bookings. They'll be grateful for your review. Alternatively, if something wasn't as described, other families will appreciate that you share your review and help them have the best future vacation. Please be fair with your feedback If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the manager could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded expeditiously to solve it.
