Tricks and tips to get the very best vacation rental experience:

How to get the best rental value:

• June, July, and August are high season in Kill Devil Hills. To get the most suitable rental within budget, we strongly suggest booking in Fall or Spring months. You'll enjoy lower rates, better selection, beautiful weather and the absence of large crowds at your favorite Kill Devil Hills restaurants and activities. Many vacationers use this strategy to reserve larger homes, or to reserve an oceanfront vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable during the Summer. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Kill Devil Hills vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday near the ocean? Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with family and friends at the beach.
• In the Kill Devil Hills area, The sooner your group can reserve a home, the better your selection will be. The most desirable vacation rentals are booked early. Reserving your vacation home six - twelve months before your vacation dates is recommended. Holidays such as Christmas and Thanksgiving are excellent times to search for and reserve your rental home.
• Property managers sometimes offer special rates for veterans. Make sure to check with your property manager to see if special discounts are available for your group.
• Property management companies usually offer guests an option to obtain trip insurance. Trip insurance, which will generally cost 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed trip time as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for more information.
• Find a copy of your local Kill Devil Hills visitors guide magazine when you check-in. If your rental doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers. In addition to great local stories, visitors guide magazines have offers and deals for local attractions, tours, restaurants, and shops.

Narrow your Search:

• Choose a group leader, select your vacation dates, and select a spending budget.
• Decide how many bedrooms and what type of bedroom configuration your family requires. Live A Pirate's Dream has 4 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our rentals search.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts & types is normally accessible online. If they are not listed, contact the property management company before you book the rental. Remember that most listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which oftentimes includes pull out couches in living rooms.
• If there's a specific Kill Devil Hills destination you are enamored with, look for rentals that are either near by, or those that cater especially to your needs.
• Proper accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for guests with disabilities. Confirm all necessary amenities are available before booking.
• If your group is bringing pets, you will need a pet-friendly vacation rental. Request details on breed, weight, and type requirements. Note that some property owners require additional pet deposits and fees.

More tips for your stay:

• Be sure you get the host's contact number and entry/exit procedures for your rental home.
• To ensure that damages are not attributed to your stay, inspect for any problem areas during arrival. Contact the property manager immediately to relay any damages. If there is a dispute about who is responsible, having a record of issues and contact attempts will be useful.
• Hosts are available to help! Feel free to ask any questions during your stay.
• Be respectful. Often, nearby homes are filled by local residents. Respecting noise limits and parking policies is the right thing to do.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Locals can typically help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to charter a fishing boat, have a great night out, or the best spots for bird watching?
• Lock your rental property while you are out! Don't let burglars spoil your family vacation.
• Just before checking out, complete a walk-through to confirm you did not leave anything behind. Remember to check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden belongings. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Inspect the rental one final time and look for damage. We recommend walking through with the host whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the manager isn't available, ensure that you take photographs of the rental to record its condition at check-out.
• Did you have a wonderful vacation? Many rental home management companies make it easy for travelers to provide feedback. If your property and/or host was wonderful, they will likely appreciate your kind words. If anything was wrong and they failed to correct it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make a note as part of your feedback.
