Our top Ocracoke rental property booking tips and tricks:

Money saving strategies:

• The earlier your group can reserve a vacation rental, the better your selection will be. The most desirable properties are booked early. Booking your rental six to twelve months before your vacation dates is recommended. Holidays such as Christmas and Thanksgiving are excellent times to search for and reserve your rental.
• Summertime is high season in Ocracoke. Booking your vacation rental in Fall or Spring is a great way to save money on your rental home. Rental rates are lower, and you'll find a better selection of acceptable homes. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, or to reserve an oceanfront vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable during the Summer months.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property owner whether your group qualifies for a special promotion or discount.
• Management companies and individual rental owners frequently offer customers an option to add vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which generally will cost you between 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed trip time as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as ensuing additional evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance can be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for more information.
• Often, property management companies supply Ocracoke area travel guide magazines that include coupons, either offered directly by local businesses, or through a relationship with the rental management company and the business itself. You can also find Ocracoke visitors guide and coupon books at local gas stations and shopping centers.

Selecting the perfect rental:

• Start by selecting your potential vacation weeks and a spending budget.
• Decide how many bedrooms and the configuration your group needs. A Pelican Dance: Pet-friendly Condo in the heart of Ocracoke Village has 2 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms.
• Specific details about bedrooms and bed counts & types is regularly available on booking websites. If not, reach out to the property management company before you reserve the vacation property. Note that most properties list maximum guest capacity, which often includes pull out couches in living rooms. You will need to establish what is suitable for your trip.
• Do your family pets travel with you? Although a number of vacation homes allow pets or animals, guidelines and costs vary per property. Type of pet, size and breeds may be limited. Make sure to ask before booking, and study your agreement thoroughly! Additional pet fees or charges may be applied to your invoice.
• Are you visiting for a specific event or attraction? Try a map search to locate nearby properties.
• Proper accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for guests that require the use of a wheelchair. Confirm all necessary amenities are available before reserving a rental

Tips for your stay:

• Take a copy of the host's phone number and entry/exit procedures for your rental. Store the host's information in your smartphone and wallet.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a garage door opener, A/V setup or WIFI setup. Contact your property manager. They are there to help! A brief telephone call prevents a lot of concerns.
• Protect the owner (and your stuff!) by locking and securing the home while you are out, just like you would at home.
• To make certain that damages aren't attributed to your family's visit, make a record of any problem areas when you arrive. Call the host right away to report any pre-existing damages. If there is a dispute about who is responsible, having a record of issues and contact attempts will be helpful.
• Be respectful of your neighbors. Often, adjacent homes are occupied by permanent residents. Respecting noise limits and parking policies reduces conflict and allows everyone to enjoy their day.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Local residents can typically point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to find the best bike paths, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for shopping?
• Re-check every room of the rental property to confirm that you've packed all personal items at departure. Check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden items. Clean out the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Walk through the property one final time and scan for damages to contents or the property itself. We advise inspecting the property with the host whenever possible. If the manager is not available, remember to take video and pictures of the property to record its condition.
• Did you have a wonderful stay? Most rental home management companies make it easy for travelers to provide feedback. If your rental property and/or property manager was terrific, they always love to hear your praise. If anything was defective and they failed to fix it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make a note as part of your review.
