Tricks and tips to get the best Ocracoke vacation rental experience:

How to get the best rental home value:

• The sooner you can book a rental home, the better your selection will be. The most desirable vacation rentals are booked very early. Booking your vacation property up to twelve months before your vacation is recommended. Christmas, Thanksgiving and New Years Eve are excellent times to plan and book your vacation rental.
• Summer time is high season in Ocracoke. To get the best value, consider changing your family's Ocracoke vacation week to the Spring or Fall shoulder seasons. May, September, and even October offer pleasant weather, fewer crowds, and reduced traffic.
• Some property management companies offer rate reductions for veterans. Check with your property manager to see if special discounts are available for your group before you book.
• Property management companies typically offer customers an option to buy trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which commonly will cost you anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for days missed as a result of personal medical-related emergencies 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 welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for details.
• Often, rental management companies supply Ocracoke area visitor guide magazines which will include coupons, either offered independently by local companies, or through a relationship between the 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.

How to pick the perfect vacation rental:

• Choose a designated group leader, select your vacation week, and choose a max budget.
• Determine how many beds and the bed configuration you need. Aleta: Pet friendly, waterfront, perfect for two. Private docking. has 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Specific information regarding bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is often available online. If you don't see them listed, email the host before reserving the vacation property. Note that most listings specify maximum guest capacity, which frequently includes sofa beds and bunks.
• If your group is vacationing with pets, filter your search for a property that allows animals. Get specifics on breed, weight, and type restrictions. Some hosts charge additional pet fees.
• If there's a particular Ocracoke attraction you long to visit, search for rentals that are either near by, or those that cater to your needs.
• Proper accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for persons with a disability. Remember to confirm all necessary amenities are available before reserving a rental

More tips for your visit:

• Get the host's contact number and entry/exit procedures for your rental property. Store the host's contact information in your smartphone.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a fireplace, A/V setup or coffee maker. Contact your owner. They are there to help! A brief call can prevent many problems.
• Ensure you protect the owner (and your things!) by locking the rental while you are gone, just like you would back home.
• To ensure that damages aren't attributed to your family's visit, inspect the rental for any problem areas when you arrive. message the rental manager right away to record any issues. If there is a dispute about who is responsible, having the recorded concerns and contact attempts will be valuable.
• Respecting quiet hours and parking regulations can make a stay significantly more pleasurable. Be a good neighbor. You'll magnify your chance to make some new local friends, and resident neighbors are usually a fantastic source for finding the best local restaurants, beaches, and hangouts.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Neighbors can usually help. Who better to ask where to order the best nachos, have a great night out, or the best spots for fine dining?
• On check-out day, take a final walk-through to make sure you didn't forget any personal items. Remember to check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden belongings. Clean out the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Document the condition of the property at check-out. We recommend taking a video during your final walk-through.
• Did your family have a great time? Many rental management companies make it easy for travelers to provide comments. If your rental and/or host was wonderful, they would love to hear it. If anything was wrong 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 feedback.
