Getting the best rental home experience:

Get the most from your spending budget:

• The earlier your group can book a vacation home, the easier your search will be. The most desirable properties are reserved early. Booking your vacation property six - twelve months before your vacation dates is recommended. Christmas, Thanksgiving and New Years Eve are excellent times to plan and book your rental.
• Summer is the most expensive season in coastal NC. To find the best value, consider changing your family's Kitty Hawk vacation dates to the Spring or Fall seasons. May, September, and October offer pleasant temperatures, fewer crowds, and greatly reduced traffic. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, or to reserve a beach front rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during the Summer. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Kitty Hawk vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation on the coast? Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with loved ones at your favorite beach.
• Some property managers offer rate reductions for veterans and active duty military. Remember to ask your host or property manager if special offers are available for your family.
• Booking websites usually offer renters an option to obtain trip insurance. Trip insurance, which normally will cost between 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed days as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as ensuing additional evacuation costs or charges, such as an unanticipated hotel or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for program terms and fees.
• Often, property management companies supply Kitty Hawk area visitor guide magazines that include coupons, either offered directly by local companies, or by way of a partnership between the property management company and the business itself. You can also find Kitty Hawk visitors guide and coupon books at local gas stations and shopping centers.

How to pick the perfect rental home in the Kitty Hawk area:

• Select a group leader, choose your dates, and choose a max budget.
• Note the number beds and what type of bedroom configuration your group requires. 4073 Downtime * 2 Min Walk to Beach * Pool\/Hot Tub has 4 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Precise information regarding bedrooms and bed counts & types is almost always accessible online. If you don't see them listed, contact the host before you reserve the rental. Remember that most property listings specify the max. guest capacity, which often includes sofa beds and bunks.
• If your family is traveling with pets, you'll need to find a pet-friendly rental. Get specifics on breed, size, and type restrictions. Some property owners charge additional pet fees.
• Does your family require particular amenities? Most rental websites include search filters for amenities. Amenity filters help you quickly remove less-optimal properties.
• Suitable accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for guests that require the use of a wheelchair. .

More considerations for your visit:

• Put the host's contact information in your smartphone.
• Property managers are great sources of help! Feel free to ask questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Lock your rental property while you are gone! Don't let burglars ruin your family vacation.
• Record any issues with the rental at check in, and immediately e-mail them to the host. We especially recommend e-mails and text messages, as they usually contain time stamps that can be beneficial if a dispute is filed.
• Be respectful. Often times, adjacent homes are occupied by permanent residents. Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking rules reduces conflict and allows everyone to enjoy their day.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Residents can frequently help. Who better to ask where to see a beautiful sunrise or sunset, have a great night out, or the best spots for fishing?
• At departure, take a final walk-through to make sure you have not forget any personal items. Make sure to check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden belongings. Clean out the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Document the condition of the property at check-out. We recommend taking a video during your final walk-through.
• Did your group have a fantastic time? Many rental management companies make it easy for clients to provide comments. If your rental property and/or host was great, they would love to hear it. If anything was wrong and they failed to address 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.
