Booking the best Ocracoke vacation rental experience:

Getting the most from your spending budget:

• June, July, and August are the most expensive months in Ocracoke. To find the most suitable rental home within your budget, we suggest reserving in Fall or Spring months. You'll benefit from lower rental rates, greater selection, gorgeous weather and the absence of giant crowds at Ocracoke restaurants, beaches, and activities.
• The sooner your group can book, the easier your search will be. The most desirable vacation homes are reserved early. Reserving your rental home 6-12 months before your travel dates is recommended. Winter holidays are excellent times to plan and reserve your rental.
• Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective host whether your vacationing group qualifies for a special rate.
• Booking websites frequently offer customers an option to purchase vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which usually will cost between 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed time as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as ensuing additional evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance might be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for more information.
• Look for your local Ocracoke visitors guide upon checking in. If your rental home doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers. In addition to great information, visitors guide magazines contain money saving offers on nearby accommodations, restaurants and tours.

Filter your search:

• Begin by choosing vacation dates and a spending budget.
• Note the number bedrooms and the bed configuration your family needs. Unique, Romantic, Cozy, Island Cottage on #1 Beach in America has 1 bedrooms and 1 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our vacation rental search.
• Specific information about bedrooms and bed counts & types is regularly available on booking websites. Otherwise, call the property management company before reserving the home. Note that most property listings specify the max. guest capacity, which usually includes sofa beds and bunks. You will need to work out what configuration is right for your group.
• If there's a specific Ocracoke attraction you are enamored with, look for homes that are either nearby, or those that cater especially to your desires.
• Proper accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for persons with a disability. Confirm all necessary amenities are included before reserving a rental.
• If your group is bringing pets, you must book a rental that allows animals. Get information on breed, size, and type requirements. Often, hosts require additional pet deposits and fees.

Know before you go:

• Take a copy of the owner's phone number and arrival/departure procedures for your rental property.
• Upon arrival, note any damages to the property and immediately alert the owner. Keep records of all coorespondence.
• Property managers are great sources of help! Feel free to ask any questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking restrictions can make a stay more pleasurable. Be a good neighbor. You'll magnify your chance to make some new local friends, and resident neighbors are usually a great resource to find the best local spots.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Locals can often help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to get the best seafood, have a great night out, or the best spots for bird watching?
• Protect the owner (and your things!) by keeping the rental locked up while you are away, just like you would at home.
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before you drive away, walk through the property to make sure you've collected everything. Make sure to check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden items. 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.
• Leave a review! Property owners rely on excellent feedback to propel future bookings. They'll be grateful for your review. Alternatively, if something went awry, other vacationing families will will be grateful for your feedback and help them have the best future vacation. Be fair with your review. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the property manager could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded quickly to fix it.
