Kitty Hawk rental home booking tips and tricks:

How to get the best rental home value:

• The sooner your group can reserve a home, the easier your search will be. The best vacation rentals are reserved very early. Reserving your rental up to twelve months before your travel dates is recommended. Christmas, Thanksgiving and New Years Eve are excellent times to search for and reserve your vacation home.
• Summer months are high season in the Kitty Hawk area. To find the best rental home within your budget, we highly recommend booking in the Spring or Fall. You'll enjoy lower rates, greater selection, warm weather and the absence of giant crowds at popular Kitty Hawk attractions and restaurants.
• Property managers sometimes offer special rates for veterans. It's always a good idea to check with your property manager to see if special offers are available for your group.
• Property management companies typically offer guests an option to add trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which will generally cost anywhere between 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed vacation time as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance can be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for program terms and fees.
• Look for your local Kitty Hawk visitors guide magazine when you check-in. If your rental property doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local grocery stores and visitor centers. In addition to great local stories, visitors guides have deals for local shops and restaurants.

How to pick the best rental:

• Start by selecting the best vacation week and a budget.
• Determine how many beds and the bed configuration your family requires. Beachside home in the heart of Duck, NC and walkable to the ocean! has 5 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms.
• Specific information about bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is regularly available on booking pages. If you don't see them listed, email or call the property management company before reserving your rental. Note that most listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which oftentimes includes pull-out couches. You will need to determine which bed configuration is suitable for your group.
• If your group is bringing pets, you must reserve a rental that allows animals. Make sure to ask for details on breed, weight, and type requirements. Some hosts require additional pet deposits and fees.
• If there's a particular Kitty Hawk beach you are enamored with, browse homes that are either near by, or those that cater especially to your desires.
• Suitable accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for the less-mobile. Make certain to inquire about wheel chair entry, pool lifts and specialized equipment needs.

More considerations:

• Put the owner's contact information in your smartphone.
• Hosts are there to help! Feel free to ask questions during your stay.
• Lock your rental while you're away. Keep your property safe!
• During arrival, record any damages to the rental property and immediately contact the owner. Keep records of all coorespondence.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like disagreeable vacationers disrupting your peaceful home life. Apply the golden rule for best judgement. Happy residents may even recommend great local food and places you would've not otherwise known!
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Residents can often point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to get the best seafood, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fishing?
• Double-check the rental property to make sure that you've packed everything at check-out. Remember to check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden belongings. Clean out the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Did your group have a excellent time? Many rental management companies make it easy for clients to provide reviews. If your rental property and/or property manager was terrific, they would love to hear about it. If anything was out of order and they failed to fix it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make it a point as part of your feedback.
