Tips and Tricks to get the optimal vacation property experience:

How to get the best rental home value:

• Summer is the most expensive season along the coast of NC. Book your Kill Devil Hills vacation in the Spring or Fall to get the benefit of gorgeous weather while saving money and avoiding crowded roads, restaurants, and activities. Many vacationers use this strategy to reserve larger homes, or to reserve a beach front rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during June, July, and August. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Kill Devil Hills vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday on the coast? Christmas, Thanksgiving, and New Years Eve are great times to gather with friends and family at your favorite beach.
• The earlier you can book a rental home, the easier your search will be. The most desirable vacation homes are booked early. Reserving your rental property up to twelve months before your vacation is recommended. Winter holidays are excellent times to search for and reserve your rental property.
• Owners sometimes offer discounts for active duty military and veterans. Ask your host or property manager if special discounts are available for your group.
• Booking websites typically offer guests an option to add trip insurance. Trip insurance, which will generally cost between 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed days as a result of medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance might be a a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for additional information.
• Find a copy of your local Kill Devil Hills visitors guide magazine when you check-in. If your rental doesn't have one, you can find them at local shops and fuel stations. In addition to great information, visitors guide magazines contain discounts for nearby accommodations, restaurants and tours.

• Specific information regarding bedrooms and bed types is often available on booking pages. Otherwise, email the property manager before you reserve the property. Note that most properties list the max. guest capacity, which usually includes pull-out couches and bunk beds.
• If there's a certain Kill Devil Hills beach you long to visit, search for properties that are either nearby, or those that cater to your requirements.

• Protect the property owner (and your stuff!) by locking the rental when you are out, just like you would back home.
• On check-out day, complete a final walk-through to make sure you haven't forget anything. Re-check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden items. Clean out the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Please make sure to walk through the property one final time and look for damage. We advise walking through with the property manager whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the property manager isn't available, take photos and video of the rental to record its condition at check-out.
• After your trip, leave feedback! Property managers rely on great feedback to stimulate new reservations. They'll be thankful for your review. Alternatively, if something wasn't right, other vacationers will will be grateful for your experience find their best vacation home.
