Tips for getting the perfect rental experience:

Sticking to your rental budget:

• Book your vacation home as soon as possible. Rental schedules usually open a year in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many groups reserve their Summer rentals during Christmas and Thanksgiving gatherings. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Booking a rental in Fall or Spring months is one of our best tips for saving money on your vacation rental. Rates are lower, and you'll find a better selection of acceptable properties. Many vacationers use this method to find larger homes within budget, or to reserve an oceanfront rental that would otherwise be unaffordable 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 vacation near the ocean? Christmas, Thanksgiving, and New Years Eve are great times to gather with friends and family at your favorite beach.
• Some hosts and property managers offer discounts for veterans and active duty military. Make sure to check with your host or property manager to see if rate reductions are available for your group.
• Booking websites usually offer guests an option to purchase trip insurance. Trip insurance, which usually will cost you anywhere between 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed days as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unanticipated hotel or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance can be a a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for more information.
• Many management companies and vacation rental houses supply Kill Devil Hills area travel guide magazines which will include special deals, either offered directly by local businesses, or through a partnership between the rental management company and the business itself. You can also find Kill Devil Hills area magazine and coupon books at local shops and grocery stores.

Planning, picking, and booking yourrental home:

• To start, have your family choose a vacation week and a max budget.
• Note the number beds and the bed configuration you need. Private Studio in ? of KDH. has 1 bedrooms and 1 bathrooms.
• Specific details about bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is usually available online. If they are not listed, email the property management company before you reserve the rental. Remember that most property listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which often includes sofa beds and bunks. You will need to determine what is right for your vacation group.
• Remember to include your furry companions! Although a number of vacation homes allow pets or animals, guidelines and costs vary per property. Allowable pet type, breed, and size are often limited. Ask your property manager before booking, and study your agreement! Additional pet fees or charges may be applied to your contract.
• If there's a certain Kill Devil Hills destination you love, search for properties that are either near by, or those that cater especially to your desires.
• Suitable accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for those with limited mobility. Confirm all necessary amenities are included before booking

Some things to know before you go:

• Take a copy of the property manager's contact number and arrival/departure procedures for your rental.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a hot tub, elevator or kitchen appliance. Contact your owner. They are there to help! A brief text message prevents many concerns.
• Protect the rental owner (and your things!) by locking and securing the home while you are out, just like you would at home.
• At Check-in, make note of any damages to the property and immediately contact the owner. Keep records of all coorespondence.
• Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking rules can make a stay significantly more pleasurable. Be a good neighbor. You'll increase your chance to make some new local friends, and resident neighbors are usually a great source for finding the best local spots.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Local residents can usually point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to order delicious takeout, have a great night out, or the best spots for crabbing?
• On check-out day, take a walk-through to make sure you have not forget any personal items. Re-check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden items. Clean the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Did you have a wonderful vacation? Most rental managers make it easy for guests to provide comments. If your rental property and/or host was wonderful, they would love to hear about it. If anything was inoperable and they failed to correct it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make it a point as part of your comments.
