Rental booking tips:

Sticking to your spending plan:

• The sooner you can reserve a vacation home, the easier your search will be. The best vacation rentals are reserved early. Booking your vacation rental six - twelve months before your travel dates is recommended. Winter holidays are excellent times to plan and reserve your rental home.
• Summer is the most expensive season in Kill Devil Hills. Book your Kill Devil Hills rental home in the Fall or Spring shoulder seasons to enjoy gorgeous weather while saving money and avoiding crowds. Many vacationers use this method to find larger homes within budget, or to reserve a beach front rental that would otherwise be unavailable during the high season. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Kill Devil Hills vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation near the ocean? Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with family and friends at the beach.
• Property management companies sometimes offer special rates for veterans and active duty military. Check with your host or property manager to see if special offers are available for your family.
• Booking websites usually offer their guests an option to buy trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which normally costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any days missed as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for program terms and fees.
• Many management companies supply Kill Devil Hills area travel guides that include coupons, either offered independently by local businesses, or by way of a relationship between the property management company and the business itself. You can also find visitors guide and coupon books at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers.

• Decide how many bedrooms and the configuration your group needs. 5064 McBride's Shore Thing * 2 Min Walk to Beach has 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms.
• Specific information about bedrooms and bed counts & types is normally available online. Otherwise, email the host before you book your rental. Remember that most properties list maximum guest capacity, which typically includes pull-out couches.
• Some properties allow pets, and others don't. Acceptable types of pet, size and breeds may be restricted, and added fees may apply. Ask your host about pets before booking.
• Visiting for a specific event or attraction? If so, use a map search to browse nearby rentals.
• Suitable accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for persons with disabilities. Make certain to ask about wheel chair entry, pool lifts and specialized equipment needs.

Additional considerations:

• Add the host's contact info to your phone. Take a copy of arrival/departure procedures.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a garage door opener, intercom or coffee maker. Contact your property manager. They are there to help! A brief telephone call can prevent many difficulties.
• Lock your rental property while you're gone! Don't let thieves spoil your vacation.

• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Residents can frequently help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to spend a rainy day, have a great night out, or the best spots for crabbing?
• Just before checking out, complete a final walk-through to confirm you have not leave anything behind. Check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden items. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Go through the property one final time and keep an eye out for damage. We suggest walking through with the property manager whenever you can. If the manager isn't available, remember to take photographs of the property to record its condition at check-out.
• After your trip, leave a review! Property managers rely on good reviews to propel future reservations. They'll be thankful for your feedback.
