Booking the best Kitty Hawk vacation property experience:

Finding your perfect rental home:

• Book your rental as early as possible. Rental schedules usually become available a year in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many groups book their Summer rentals during Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years Eve gatherings. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• To find the best rental home within budget, we suggest booking in the Fall or Spring. You'll benefit from lower rental rates, better selection, gorgeous weather and the absence of large crowds at Kitty Hawk restaurants, tours, and activities. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Kitty Hawk vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday near the ocean? Christmas, Thanksgiving, and New Years Eve are great times to gather with loved ones at the beach.
• Property management companies sometimes offer discounts or promotional rates for veterans and active duty military. Remember to ask your host or property manager if special offers are available for your family before you book.
• Property management companies frequently offer customers an option to add vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which normally costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed days as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance can be a a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for program terms and fees.
• Many rental management companies supply Kitty Hawk area visitors guide magazines that include special deals, either offered directly by local businesses, or through a relationship between the management company and the business itself. You can also find Kitty Hawk area magazine and coupon books at local shops and grocery stores.

Selecting and booking yourrental home:

• Begin by choosing your vacation dates and a budget.
• Decide how many beds and what type of bedroom configuration you need. Classic, semi ocean front OBX cottage steps away from the beach. has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed types is normally accessible online. If you don't see them listed, email or call the host before you book the property. Remember that most listings specify the max. guest capacity, which typically includes pull out couches in living rooms. You'll need to determine what configuration is right for your group.
• If your family is traveling with pets, you must book a pet-friendly rental. Request details on breed, size, and type requirements. Usually, hosts charge additional pet fees.
• If there's a certain Kitty Hawk beach you are enamored with, browse properties that are either nearby, or those that cater to your needs.
• Proper accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for guests that require the use of a wheelchair. Confirm all required amenities are available before reserving a rental.

Considerations for your stay:

• Be sure you get the property manager's phone number and check in/check out procedures for your rental home.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a hot tub, stereo or kitchen appliance. Contact your host. They are there to help! A brief text message can prevent many problems.
• Ensure you protect the property owner (and your things!) by locking the property when you are gone, just like you would at home.
• To make sure that damages aren't linked to your family's visit, make a record of any problem areas during arrival. Make contact with the property manager immediately to relay any issues. If there is a dispute about who is responsible, having a record of problems and contact attempts will be useful.
• Don't forget to respect your neighbors. Frequently, surrounding homes are occupied by permanent residents. Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking rules reduces conflict and allows everyone to enjoy their day.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Locals can typically point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to get the best breakfast in town, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fine dining?
• Double-check the property to confirm that you've packed all of your belongings at departure. Remember to check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden items. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Did you have a fantastic time? Most rental managers make it easy for clients to provide reviews. If your rental property and/or host was fantastic, they would love to hear it. If anything was inoperable and they failed to address it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make a note as part of your review.
