Kill Devil Hills vacation rental tips:

Finding the best value:

• Reserve your rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules often open 12 months in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many groups book their Summer rentals during Christmas and Thanksgiving get-togethers. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Summer months are the most expensive season along the coast of NC. Reserving a rental home in the Fall or Spring shoulder seasons is our best tip for saving money on your vacation home. Rates are lower, and you'll find a better selection of desirable homes.
• Some hosts and property managers offer discounts for veterans. Ask your host or property manager if special discounts are available for your family before you book.
• Management companies and individual rental owners often offer guests an option to purchase vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which will generally cost 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed vacation time as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance can be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for details.
• Often, management companies and vacation rental houses supply Kill Devil Hills area visitors guides which often 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 Kill Devil Hills visitors guide magazine and coupon books at local shops and grocery stores.

Finding the best rental home:

• Choose a designated group leader, choose your dates, and choose a maximum budget.
• Decide how many bedrooms and the configuration you need. OBX Island Cottage~Water view~ 1 level, no stairs~ Beach 3.5 miles (8 min drive) has 3 bedrooms and 1 bathrooms.
• Specific information regarding bedrooms and bed counts is often accessible on booking websites. If they are not listed, email the property owner before booking your rental. Remember that most listings specify maximum guest capacity, which typically includes pull out couches in living rooms. You will need to work out what configuration is optimal for your vacation family.
• Some rentals allow pets, and others don't. Acceptable types of dog or cat, size and breeds may be restricted, and additional charges may apply. Ask the property management company about your furry family members before booking.
• Are you visiting for a single attraction? Try a map search to find nearby properties.
• Proper accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for those with limited mobility. Confirm all required amenities are available before reserving a rental.

Advice for a terrific stay:

• We recommend storing the host's information in your smartphone.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a garage door opener, television set or appliance. Contact your property manager. They are there to help! A brief text message prevents quite a few concerns.
• Keep your rental home locked while you're away! Don't let crooks ruin your family vacation.
• Record any damages to the rental upon arrival, and immediately e-mail them to the property manager. We especially recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain time stamps that can be very helpful if damages are attributed to your stay.
• Respect the neighborhood. Frequently, nearby homes are occupied by local residents. Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking regulations is the right thing to do.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Local residents can frequently help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to order delicious takeout, have a great night out, or the best spots for fishing?
• Re-check the rental property to confirm that you've packed all belongings at check-out. Remember to check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden belongings. Clean the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Please make sure to walk through the property a final time and keep an eye out for any damage. We recommend walking through with the host whenever you can. If the host is not available, ensure that you take video of the property to record its condition at check-out.
• Did your family have a terrific stay? Most rental home management companies make it easy for vacationers to provide comments. If your property and/or host was terrific, they would love to hear it. If anything was defective 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.
