Tricks and tips to get the perfect Kitty Hawk rental experience:

When to reserve a Kitty Hawk rental & When to go:

• Reserve your vacation rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules often become available a year in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many groups book their Summer vacation rentals during holiday gatherings. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Summer is the most expensive season in Kitty Hawk. To find the best value, try changing your trip dates to the Spring or Fall shoulder seasons. May, September, and October offer excellent weather, fewer crowds, and reduced traffic. Many vacationers use this method to find larger homes within budget, or to book an oceanfront rental that would otherwise be unavailable during the Summer.
• Hosts sometimes offer special rates for active duty military and veterans. Ask your property manager if special discounts are available for your family.
• Property managers often offer their guests an option to purchase vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which normally will cost you between 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed trip time as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel stay or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance can be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for additional information.
• Many property management companies and vacation rental houses supply Kitty Hawk area visitors guide magazines that include special deals, either offered independently by local businesses, or by way of a relationship with the property management company and the business itself. You can also find Kitty Hawk visitors guide magazine and coupon books at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers.

Use filters to search efficiently:

• Select a group lead, select your dates, and choose a spending budget.
• Decide how many beds and the configuration your family needs. Close to Beach w\/ Pool,Spa - Perfect for Families! has 5 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our Kitty Hawk vacation rental search.
• Specific details about bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is usually accessible on booking websites. If you don't see them listed, contact the property manager before you book the rental. Remember that most properties list the max. guest capacity, which usually includes pull-out couches.
• Some properties allow pets, and others do not. Allowable types of dog or cat, weight and breeds may be restricted, and additional charges may apply. Ask your host about allowable pet guidelines before booking.
• If there's an individual Kitty Hawk beach you love, browse properties that are either close by, or those that cater to your needs.
• Appropriate accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for those with limited mobility. Confirm all required amenities are available before booking.

More tips for your visit:

• We recommend storing the manager's contact information in your smartphone.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a fireplace, elevator or thermostat. Contact your host. They are there to help! A brief call prevents quite a few problems.
• Lock your vacation home while you're out. Protect the owner's property and your stuff!
• At Check-in, document any damages to the rental property and immediately alert the property manager. Record all coorespondence.
• Respect the neighborhood. Often times, adjacent homes are filled by local residents. Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking policies is the right thing to do.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Local residents can frequently help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to book the best tours, have a great night out, or the best spots for shopping?
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before you drive away, take a walk through the rental to confirm you've collected all personal items. Remember to check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden treasure. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Inspect the property a final time and keep an eye out for damages to contents or the property itself. We advise walking through with the host whenever you can. If the manager isn't available, remember to take photographs of the rental to record its condition at check-out.
• Remember to leave a review! Hosts rely on good ratings to stimulate future reservations. They'll be grateful for your review. Alternatively, if something wasn't right, other vacationing families will appreciate that you share your experience and help them have the best future vacation. Remember to be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the manager could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded quickly to solve it.
