Strategies to get the very best Ocracoke rental home experience:

Sticking to a spending plan:

• The earlier you can reserve a vacation home, the easier your search will be. The best vacation rentals are booked very early. Booking your rental home six to twelve months before your vacation dates is recommended. Winter holidays are excellent times to plan and reserve your rental property.
• June, July, and August are the most expensive months along the coast of NC. Booking your Ocracoke vacation home in the Spring or Fall is an excellent way to save on your vacation. Rates are lower, and you'll find a larger selection of desirable homes. Many vacationers use this strategy to reserve larger homes, or to book a beach front vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable during the high season.
• Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property management company or host whether your group qualifies for a price reduction.
• Management companies and individual rental owners frequently offer guests an option to add vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which commonly will cost you anywhere between 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed time as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance might be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for more information.
• Often, property management companies supply Ocracoke area visitors guides which include money-saving deals, either offered directly by local companies, or through a relationship between the rental management company and the business itself. You can also find Ocracoke visitors guide magazine and coupon books at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers.

Narrow your Search:

• Begin by selecting your vacation dates and a maximum budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and the bed configuration you need. Spindrift: Spacious dog friendly canal front home, dock, decks, views has 5 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms.
• Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed types is commonly accessible on booking websites. Otherwise, contact the property manager before you reserve the home. Remember that most listings specify the max. guest capacity, which frequently includes sofa beds and bunks.
• Some rental properties allow pets, but others do not. Acceptable types of family pet, size and breeds may be restricted, and additional charges may apply. Ask the owner about pet restrictions before booking.
• Is your family looking for special amenities? Most websites include amenity lists and search filters. Filtering by amenity will allow you to quickly find the perfect rental home.
• Proper accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for guests with disabilities. Confirm all necessary amenities are available and included before booking

More considerations for your visit:

• Take a copy of the owner's phone number and entry/exit procedures for your rental property.
• Property managers are there to help! Feel free to ask any questions during your stay.
• Lock your rental property while you're away! Don't let burglars ruin your holiday.
• Upon check-in, document any damages to the rental property and immediately alert the owner. Record all correspondence in case a dispute arises.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like disagreeable vacationers disrupting your home life. Use the golden rule for common sense. If they like you, locals might even recommend great local food and attractions you would've never otherwise known about!
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Locals can typically help. Who better to ask where to go for the best drinks, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for BBQ?
• Don't leave anything behind! Before departing, walk through the property to confirm you've collected all of your things. Re-check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden treasure. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Inspect the property a final time and look for any damage. We suggest walking through with the property manager whenever possible. If the manager is not available, ensure that you take video of the property to record its condition.
• Did your family have a great stay? Most rental home management companies make it easy for clients to provide comments. If your rental and/or property manager was fantastic, they always love to hear your praise. If anything was defective and they failed to address it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make it a point as part of your comments.
