Tricks and tips to get the perfect Kitty Hawk rental home experience:

When to book & When to go:

• Book your Kitty Hawk vacation in the Fall or Spring shoulder seasons 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 vacation rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during the high season.
• The sooner you can reserve a vacation home, the better your selection will be. The best vacation homes are reserved very early. Reserving your rental home six to twelve months before your vacation is recommended. Holidays such as Christmas and Thanksgiving are excellent times to search for and reserve your rental home.
• Some property managers offer discounts for active duty military and veterans. Make sure to check with your host or property manager to see if special offers are available for your group before you book.
• Booking websites frequently offer customers an option to buy vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which costs 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed vacation time as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel stay or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance can be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for more information.
• Find a copy of your local visitors guide 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, visitors guide magazines contain deals for nearby shops and restaurants.

Use filters to search efficiently:

• Begin by choosing trip dates and a budget.
• Decide how many bedrooms and the bed configuration your group requires. Renovated Cottage With Screened Porch, Ocean View, 5 Minute Walk To Beach! has 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our Kitty Hawk rental home search.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts & types is regularly available on booking pages. Otherwise, reach out to the host before booking the property. Note that most listings specify maximum guest capacity, which typically includes sofa beds and bunks. You will need to work out what configuration is best for your vacation.
• If there's an individual Kitty Hawk destination you crave, browse properties that are either near by, or those that cater to your requirements.
• Appropriate accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for those with limited mobility. Confirm all required amenities are available before booking
• Traveling with pets? Many vacation homes allow animals, but guidelines and restrictions apply. Type of pet, size and breeds may be limited. Remember to ask your host before booking, and study your rental agreement! Additional fees or costs could be applied to your invoice.

Additional considerations:

• Be sure you get the property manager's phone number and arrival/departure procedures for your rental.
• Make a record of any damages to the property at check in, and immediately send them to the property manager. We specifically recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain time stamps that can be beneficial if damages are attributed to your stay.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a hot tub, intercom or WIFI setup. Contact your owner. They are there to help! A brief phone call can prevent quite a few concerns.
• Respecting quiet hours and parking rules can make a stay more pleasurable. You will increase your chance to make some new local friends, and resident neighbors are a terrific source for finding the best local beaches and restaurants.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Locals can typically help. Who better to ask where to launch your kayaks, have a great night out, or the best spots for shopping?
• Ensure you protect the owner (and your stuff!) by keeping the rental locked up while you are gone, just like you would back home.
• Re-check the rental property to confirm that you've packed all personal items on check-out day. Check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden treasure. Clean out 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 wonderful vacation? Many rental managers make it easy for vacationers to provide feedback. If your rental and/or property manager was fantastic, they would love to hear it. If anything was inoperable 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 feedback.
