Tips and Tricks to get the perfect Kill Devil Hills rental home experience:

How to get the best rental home value:

• In the Kill Devil Hills area, The sooner you can book a rental home, the better your selection will be. The most desirable properties are reserved early. Booking your rental property six to twelve months before your vacation dates is recommended. Christmas, Thanksgiving and New Years Eve are excellent times to plan and reserve your rental.
• To get the best value, shift your group's vacation dates to the Spring or Fall shoulder seasons. May, September, and October offer warm weather, , and reduced traffic. Many vacationers use this strategy to reserve larger homes, or to reserve an oceanfront rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during June, July, and August.
• Owners sometimes offer discounts or promotional rates for veterans and active duty military. It's always a good idea to check with your property manager to see if special offers are available for your family before you book.
• Booking websites frequently offer renters an option to obtain vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which normally costs between 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for days missed as a result of medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance might be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for more information.
• Look for your local Kill Devil Hills area magazine when you check-in. If your rental doesn't have one, you can find them at local grocery stores and visitor centers. In addition to great local stories, travel guides have money saving offers on local shops and restaurants.

How to pick the perfect rental in Kill Devil Hills:

• Start by having your family commit to vacation dates and a maximum budget.
• Determine how many beds and what type of bedroom configuration you need. Cozy Cottage on the Canal, Hot-tub, Kayaks & Fishing has 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our rental home search.
• Precise details about bedrooms and bed counts is often available online. If they are not listed, reach out to the property manager before you book the vacation property. Remember that most listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which frequently includes sofa beds and bunks. You will need to determine what is suitable for your vacation family.
• If your family is vacationing with pets, you must reserve a property that allows animals. Get details on breed, size, and type requirements. Be aware that some hosts require additional pet deposits and fees.
• If there's a certain Kill Devil Hills attraction you are enamored with, search for homes that are either nearby, or those that cater to your needs.
• Suitable accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for guests with disabilities. .

Advice for a wonderful stay:

• Store the host's contact information in your smartphone.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a hot tub, stereo or thermostat. Contact your host. They are there to help! A brief phone call can prevent many problems.
• Protect the owner (and your stuff!) by locking the rental when you are gone, just like you would at home.
• Document any issues with the rental during check in, and immediately e-mail them to the host. We especially recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain built-in time stamps that can be valuable if a dispute is filed.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like disrespectful visitors bothering your quiet neighborhood. Employ the golden rule for best judgement. Happy residents may even recommend great beaches and places you would have never otherwise known about!
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Residents can usually help. Who better to ask where to find the fresh catch of the day, have a great night out, or the best spots for shopping?
• On check-out day, take a final walk-through to confirm you did not forget anything. Re-check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden belongings. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Did your group have a great vacation? Most vacation rental websites make it easy for vacationers to provide comments. If your property and/or host was terrific, they always love to hear your praise. If anything was amiss and they failed to correct it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make a note as part of your comments.
