Getting the best Nags Head vacation rental experience:

When to book & When to go:

Summertime is the most expensive season along the coast of NC. Booking your Nags Head vacation home in the Fall or Spring shoulder seasons is a great way to save on your vacation. Rates are lower, and you'll find a larger selection of acceptable homes. Many vacationers use this strategy to reserve larger homes, or to book an oceanfront vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable during the Summer. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Nags Head vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation near the ocean? Thanksgiving and Christmas are great times to gather with loved ones at the beach.
The sooner you can reserve a vacation rental, the easier your search will be. The most desirable vacation homes are reserved early. Reserving your rental six to twelve months before your travel dates is recommended. Winter holidays are excellent times to search for and book your vacation home.
Hosts sometimes offer promotional rates for veterans and active duty military. It's always a good idea to check with your host or property manager to see if discounts are available for your family before you book.
Property managers typically offer renters an option to obtain vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which will generally cost 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for days missed as a result of medical-related issues or weather, as well as hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel stay or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for program terms and fees.
Find a copy of your local Nags Head visitors guide magazine when you arrive at the rental property. If your rental doesn't have one, you can find them at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers. In addition to great local stories, visitor guide magazines have money saving offers on nearby accommodations and attractions.

Selecting the best vacation home in the Nags Head area:

Select your vacation dates and max budget.
Determine how many bedrooms and the bed configuration you need. 6 bedroom, classic old nags head style oceanfront with a hot tub! has 6 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our vacation rental search.
Precise information about bedrooms and bed counts & types is often available online. If not, contact the property management company before you reserve the property. Note that most listings specify maximum guest capacity, which frequently includes sofa beds in living rooms. You'll need to establish what bed configuration is right for your group.
Is your family looking for particular amenities? Most rental search websites include search filters with amenity lists. Filtering by amenity will allow you to quickly find the best rental.
Suitable accessibility can make or break a vacation for guests that require the use of a wheelchair. Remember to confirm all required amenities are available before reserving a rental
If your family is bringing pets, filter your search for a pet-friendly vacation rental. Make sure to ask for information on breed, size, and type restrictions. Be aware that some property managers require additional pet deposits and fees.

More considerations:

Review check in & check out procedures before leaving home. Add a note with the directions to your smartphone, and take a printed backup.
During arrival, note any damages to the rental property and immediately contact the host. Record all correspondence in case a dispute arises.
Property managers are available to help! Don't be shy to ask questions during your stay.
Be respectful of your neighbors. Frequently, surrounding homes are filled by permanent residents. Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking rules reduces conflict and allows everyone to enjoy their day.
Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Local residents can frequently help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to order the best nachos, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fishing?
Keep the property locked while you're out! Don't let burglars ruin your family vacation.
At departure, complete a final walk-through to make sure you have not forget any personal items. Check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden items. Clean the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
Inspect the property one final time and keep an eye out for damage. We suggest inspecting the property with the host whenever possible. If the host is not available, take video of the rental to record its condition.
Did you have a fantastic time? Many rental websites make it easy for customers to provide feedback. If your property and/or host was great, they would love to hear it. If anything was inoperable and they failed to fix it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make a note as part of your comments.
