Outer Banks Vacation FAQs

Check-In

Check-in time is 4:00 PM on your arrival date and check-out is 10:00 AM on your departure date. Please plan your travel accordingly. We make every effort to have all our homes ready by 4:00 PM but we cannot guarantee this due to unforeseen circumstances. Please do not buy groceries prior to checking in to your home and please do not go to the home before you are given the keys or code. Our maintenance staff may have to complete some repairs or routine maintenance, the pool and/or hot tub will need to be serviced (if an amenity at the home) and the home must be cleaned and inspected prior to your arrival. All this must take place in a very short time and we appreciate your patience and understanding as we get your vacation home ready for your arrival.

For homes with keys, please check-in at the appropriate rental office. For homes in Kill Devil Hills and Nags Head, please go to our Nags Head office, located at 5301 South Croatan Hwy (US 158). For Corolla and Duck homes, check-in and out at our Corolla office, which is located at 510 Old Stoney Road at the south entrance to The Currituck Club.

If you will be arriving after office hours (and your balance is paid in full), you will find your keys and directions to the house in the After Hours Check-In Box located right outside the front door of the correct check-in office. If you will be late please call if you have the opportunity, and let us know. If you have not paid in full, it is very important that you call us at least one day prior to check-in to make arrangements with us.

When You First Arrive

Please walk through the cottage and check thoroughly to make sure it is clean and everything is in working order (appliances, doors, windows, etc.). It is imperative that you call our office immediately if you determine there is a problem. We will schedule service as soon as possible. If any appliance or electrical outlet does not work, please check the circuit breaker box and/or ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) reset switch, usually located in a kitchen or bathroom electrical outlet. Simply press the GFCI reset button. If power is not restored, then call our office.

All of our homes are individually owned. Therefore, the furnishings and equipment vary according to the tastes of the owner. However, we will try to provide you with all the equipment advertised for a comfortable stay.

Refrigerators

Prior to your arrival, the housekeepers have emptied and cleaned the refrigerator. Quite often it is open for a while during this process, and then you stock the refrigerator with warm food. It is of the utmost importance to keep the refrigerator and freezer on medium settings. Moving the dials to maximum settings will cause the unit to freeze up and not cool at all. It will take 12 to 24 hours for the refrigerator to cool completely after you check in.

Air Conditioning

During the summer months, it may take air conditioners 24 hours to cool a cottage properly. Our systems are heat pumps and function best if the thermostat is set at a constant temperature, not lower than 72 degrees. This will prevent the unit from freezing up. All windows and doors should be closed when the air conditioner is running. In very hot weather, the upper floors may not cool down until after the sun sets, although it will help if you close the blinds. On cooler days, you may want to turn off the air conditioner and enjoy the ocean’s prevailing breezes.

Furnishings

Please do not rearrange the furniture, especially the beds. A security deposit deduction may be charged for our housekeepers to return furniture to its original location. Please do not move or rearrange TVs or other electronics.

Telephones (Local Area Code is 252)

The telephone is provided as a courtesy for your convenience. All Outer Banks calls are local and free, as are all 800 numbers; all long-distance calls must be charged to your credit card or made collect to another number. Homes may have a phone block for long-distance calls. If, after you depart, it becomes necessary to bill you for long distance calls, a $10 surcharge will be added to the cost of the calls. If you are not sure what the phone number is at your location, simply press 311 and a recorded message will give you the number you are calling from. For emergencies, dial 911.

We will email you a Guest Survey shortly after check out day. We appreciate your input and ask you to complete the electronic survey. Comments are welcome. Please note any names of staff members on your survey whom you feel deserve recognition.

Agent is acting for and represents the landlord. All rental monies may be disbursed to the homeowner within 30 days of receipt. Therefore, no substitutions can be made. The balance of your rent is due forty-five (45) day s prior to y our arrival. Reservations with unpaid balances within forty five (45) day s of arrival may be subject to cancellation without refund. Unless advised otherwise, Agent may use initial form of payment for auto charging of final payment within the due date period.

19. CANCELLATIONS / TRANSFERS: CANCELLATION MUST BE SUBMITTED TO VILLAGE REALTY IN WRITING. In case of cancellation, no refund of rents paid will be made until the period is re-rented and confirmed. If the period is re-rented at the same rate as the original lease of the original Tenant, all monies paid are refunded less a $50 cancellation fee, if applicable. However, if the rental rate is negotiated to a lower rate or rented for a lesser time period, the original Tenant will only be refunded the lower (or lesser) rental amount as owners are to receive the full amount of the original lease. Agent will make every effort to re-rent the property at the full amount. Trip Insurance is non-refundable. Balances due for leases two weeks or longer must be paid in full prior to check-in even if a portion of the period was not able to be re-rented. 

Visa, MasterCard, Discover, personal checks, certified checks, eChecks, and money orders are accepted for the initial 50% payment. Checks must be received in our office within 7 days of booking. A $35 charge may be added for returned checks. The balance of your charges is due in our office no later than 45 days prior to arrival. Reservations with unpaid balances within 45 days of arrival may be subject to cancellation without refund. Reservations made within 45 days of arrival require payment in full at the time of booking. No PERSONAL checks or eChecks will be accepted within 45 days of arrival. 

The tax rate for North Carolina is 6.75%. County taxes are 6% for both Dare and Currituck counties (12.75% combined taxes.) Taxes are subject to change without notice. All funds will be placed in an interest-bearing account at TOWNEBANK, 2 Juniper Trail, Southern Shores, NC 27949, on which the interest shall accrue to the benefit of Village Realty. All funds must be in US Dollars.

A Security Deposit may be required at Agent’s discretion. Tenant is responsible for damage caused by willful negligence and/or damage by pet(s). If a security deposit is required, the amount varies by property. The house should be left broom clean and damage-free. If required, the security deposit must be paid in your final payment and by check (no credit cards, please). If the home is left damage-free, the security deposit will be returned 45 days from check-out. You will be notified by mail of any itemized damage charges and the total will be deducted from your security deposit.

If you must cancel your reservation after making payments, we will do our best to re-rent your vacation home for the time period you have reserved. If re-rented, monies will be refunded less a $50 cancellation fee. However, if the rental rate is negotiated to a lower rate or rented for a lesser time period, the original Tenant will only be refunded the lower rental amount. Village Realty will make every effort to re-rent the property at the full amount. If the unit is not re-rented, all monies paid will be forfeited. All cancellation requests must be in writing by the leaseholder (email or fax is fine) and signed by the leaseholder of the reservation. Balances due for leases two weeks or longer must be paid in full prior to check-in even if a portion of the period was not able to be re-rented. Trip insurance is not refundable.

Pets are not allowed unless specifically listed in the home’s description. Those homes that do allow pets are limited to two domestic housebroken dogs or cats unless otherwise noted. A NON-REFUNDABLE pet fee is required in addition to the refundable security deposit. We are not able to make exceptions with NON-PET homes. Please respect this rule as your security deposit will be held if a pet is housed in a non-pet home. Many guests are highly allergic to pets and choose specific homes because they do not allow pets; many of the homeowners also have severe allergies to pets of any kind. If you are not sure whether the home you have chosen allows pets, please call our office. We are also happy to recommend local boarding facilities for your pet.

The beach can be fun and rewarding for both pets and their owners. Each town has its own restrictions pertaining to pets. Please be courteous and clean up after your pet. All pet waste must be collected immediately and deposited in appropriate containers.

Please be sure to look at your vacation rental’s list of amenities as they vary by property.

While homes will be cleaned before your arrival as well as after your departure, make sure to bring some cleaning supplies for spills, dishes as well as laundry. You will be able to pick up a weekly supply of paper products at the nearby grocery store.

You need to supply the following:

• Food, Condiments, and Spices
• Cleaning Supplies (such as laundry & dish detergents)
• Paper Products (toilet paper, paper towels, etc.)
• Trash Bags
• Alarm clock, if you need one
• Personal Toiletries
• Suntan Lotions, Sun Screen

• Beach Toys
• Beach and Fishing Equipment
• Flashlights, Radios, and Batteries
• Specialty Cooking Items
• Baby Equipment (if not specified in house description)
• Cash or traveler’s checks and credit cards (personal checks may not be accepted at all locations)

We provide all linens (sheets and pillowcases) for your vacation home and ensure that all beds are made prior to your arrival; pillows are included. We also include bath towels and face cloths (one for each person the home accommodates), but suggest you bring additional towels for your stay. Beach towels are NOT included.

Each home will have a starter set of paper products to make your arrival day a little easier. This set will include one roll of paper towels and one roll of toilet paper for each bathroom as well as a small bar of hand soap. 

Many items can be rented from local vendors and delivered to your home on check-in day, including beach chairs, umbrellas, baby equipment, grills, and even bikes and kayaks. Give us a call for local recommendations.

All kitchens are adequately stocked for everyday meal preparation.  Extra kitchen items are provided according to the individual homeowner’s preference, not according to the size, location, or price of the cottage. If you are planning special meal preparations you should bring with you such items as a food processor, extra-large or specialty pots or pans, chef’s knives, specialty cooking utensils, etc.

2024 Dates for Private Pools: Open 4/1/24 thru 10/16/24 | Some vacation homes offer a heated pool during certain weeks. Pools are not heated unless otherwise indicated in the description for the home. If the home features a heated pool, this will be included in the description for the home. 2024 Dates for Pool Heat: 4/1/24 thru Memorial Day and Labor Day thru 10/16/24 | Pool heat is included for stays in May and September. A fee ranging from $350 to $500 applies to April and October stays. Heated pools will usually heat the pool to approx. 78-80 degrees. If the wind has been blowing for several days and/or if it has been unseasonably cool, the pool water may feel cooler than this. We cannot adjust the temperature of the pool; thermostats are set by the vendor for optimum performance. The heaters are turned off and heated pools are not available during the other seasons. All pools and hot tubs are chemically treated and serviced on your arrival day. Please take special care with the hot tub covers as they are only styrofoam with a vinyl cover and can break easily. The leaseholder is responsible for the supervision and appropriate use of the pools and hot tubs. They can be dangerous for children, pregnant women, and other people with sensitive skin or requiring medical attention. Each pool and/or hot tub is only for the occupants of that house.

Rip currents are strong narrow currents moving away from shore.  On the Outer Banks, they are generally caused by a break in the off-shore sandbar that runs along the entire shoreline. Water moving along the shore rushes out this opening, and can pull even the strongest swimmer away from the beach in a matter of minutes.

If you are caught in a rip current, the most important thing to do is stay calm. Don’t fight the current by trying to swim straight back toward shore. Instead, swim parallel to the beach until you are out of the rip, then swim diagonally to shore so you don’t get caught up again. If you can’t swim out of the rip, float or tread water to save energy until the rip current dissapates in the deeper water. Call or wave for help from a lifeguard or bystander.

If you see someone caught in a rip current, find a lifeguard right away. If there is no lifeguard available, call 911 and look for the nearest beach access or house number to tell the dispatcher your location. Do not try to swim out to them unless you are trained in ocean rescue. 

To avoid getting caught in a rip current, first learn to spot one. Rip currents are characterized by a change in water color in a narrow band perpendicular to shore: either murkier from sediments or darker from greater depth. Other telltale signs are a break in the white line of crashing waves, or an object moving steadily out to sea.

Lifeguards may mark rip currents with yellow flags in some locations. If red flags are flying, that means NO SWIMMING even if you see surfers or other swimmers in the ocean. Surfers who enter the water must be leashed to a fiberglass board at least 5 feet long with a fin. Most rental surfboards are not fiberglass and so do not meet these criteria.

All swimmers should know their limitations and abilities. The ocean is much different than a pool. Always swim with a buddy, and make sure someone on shore is watching you as well. If you are not a strong swimmer, don’t go in the ocean! 

It is always safest to swim in front of a lifeguard. All of the towns from Corolla to Nags Head staff lifeguard stands and roving patrols in-season.
