Vacation rental booking tips and tricks:

Find your perfect rental:

• Reserve your vacation rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules generally become available twelve months in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many groups book their Summer vacations during Winter holiday gatherings. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• June, July, and August are the most expensive months along the coast of NC. Reserve your Kill Devil Hills rental property in Fall or Spring to enjoy warm weather while saving money and avoiding crowds.
• Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property manager whether your vacationing group qualifies for a special promotion or discount.
• Booking websites typically offer renters an option to purchase trip insurance. Trip insurance, which usually will cost 1% - 5% of the base stay 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 costs, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance might be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for additional information.
• Often, rental management companies and vacation rental houses supply Kill Devil Hills area travel guide magazines which often include coupons, either offered directly by local businesses, or by way of a relationship with the rental management company and the business itself. You can also find Kill Devil Hills visitors guide magazine and coupon books at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers.

Choosing and booking the bestrental:

• Start by having your group agree to trip dates and a max budget.
• Determine how many beds and the bed configuration your group requires. WEL307 Downs by the Sea. Oceanfront, Luxury Condo, Saltwater Pool, Elevator! has 3 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 almost always accessible on booking pages. If they are not listed, email the property owner before booking the property. Note that most property listings specify the max. guest capacity, which oftentimes includes sofa beds. You will need to determine what configuration is right for your trip.
• Some rental properties allow pets, and others do not. Acceptable types of family pet, weight and breeds may be restricted, and additional costs may apply. Ask your host about pets before booking.
• If there's a specific Kill Devil Hills beach you love, browse properties that are either close by, or those that cater especially to your desires.
• Appropriate accessibility can make or break a vacation for guests with disabilities. Make certain to ask about specialized equipment and wheel chair accessibility.

Know before you go:

• Be sure you get the property manager's phone number and check in/check out procedures for your .
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a garage door opener, stereo or appliance. Contact your property manager. They are there to help! A brief text message prevents many concerns.
• Lock your rental property while you are away! Don't let crooks spoil your trip.
• Upon arrival, make note of any damages to the rental property and immediately contact the property manager. Keep records of all coorespondence.
• Be respectful. Often times, surrounding homes are filled by local residents. Respecting late-night noise limits and parking policies reduces conflict and allows everyone to enjoy their day.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Residents can usually help. Who better to ask where to launch your kayaks, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for crabbing?
• At departure, complete a final walk-through to make sure you did not forget any personal items. Re-check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden treasure. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Document the condition of the property at check-out. We recommend taking a video during your final walk-through.
• Did your group have a excellent vacation? Many rental managers make it easy for vacationers to provide comments. If your rental and/or host was wonderful, they would love to hear it. If anything was amiss and they failed to address it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make a note as part of your comments.
