Tips and Tricks to get the very best Ocracoke rental experience:

How to get the best rental value:

• In the Ocracoke area, The sooner your group can book a rental home, the easier your search will be. The best vacation rentals are booked very early. Reserving your vacation home six - twelve months before your travel dates is recommended. Christmas, Thanksgiving and New Years Eve are excellent times to plan and book your vacation rental.
• Summer months are high season in the Ocracoke area. Book your Ocracoke rental home in the Spring or Fall to get the benefit of warm weather while saving money and avoiding crowds.
• Some property management companies offer promotional rates for active duty military and veterans. Ask your property manager if special discounts are available for your group before you book.
• Booking websites typically offer their guests an option to obtain trip insurance. Trip insurance, which costs between 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed trip time as a result of medical-related issues or weather, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance can be a a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for details.
• Often, property management companies supply Ocracoke area visitors guides which will include money-saving deals, either offered independently by local companies, or by way of a relationship between the management company and the business itself. You can also find visitors guide and coupon books at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers.

Planning, selecting, and booking the best Ocracoke rental home:

• Start by choosing your vacation dates and a max budget.
• Decide how many bedrooms and the bed configuration your group needs. Sound Advice: Soundfront with panoramic views of colorful sunsets. has 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms.
• Precise information regarding bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is often accessible on booking pages. If they are not listed, contact the host before you book the home. Remember that most listings specify maximum guest capacity, which oftentimes includes sofa beds.
• Some rental properties allow pets, but some do not. Allowable types of family pet, weight and breeds may be restricted, and additional charges may apply. Ask your host about pet restrictions before booking.
• Visiting for a single event or attraction? If so, use a map search to find nearby rentals.
• Proper accessibility can make or break a vacation for guests with disabilities. Confirm all necessary amenities are included before booking

Advice for a wonderful stay:

• Put the manager's contact information in your smartphone.
• Hosts are great sources of help! Feel free to ask questions during your stay.
• Lock your rental property while you're away! Don't let thieves ruin your holiday.
• Document any issues with the property at check in, and immediately e-mail them to the owner. We specifically recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain built-in time stamps that are helpful if a dispute is filed.
• Be a good neighbor. Often times, adjacent homes are occupied by permanent residents. Respecting late-night noise limits and parking regulations can make a stay significantly more pleasurable.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Locals can frequently help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to find the best bike paths, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for crabbing?
• Double-check every room of the vacation property to make sure that you've packed all of your belongings at check-out. Remember to check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden items. Clean out the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Please make sure to walk through the property a final time and keep an eye out for any damage. We suggest inspecting the property with the host whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the manager is not available, take photos of the rental to record its condition.
• Did your family have a terrific vacation? Many rental home management companies make it easy for customers to provide feedback. If your rental and/or host was terrific, they always love to hear your praise. If anything was inoperable and they failed to address it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make a note as part of your feedback.
