Tips and Tricks to get the optimal rental experience:

When to visit Emerald Isle & When to reserve a Emerald Isle rental home:

• Book your rental as early as possible. Rental schedules generally open a year in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many families reserve their Summer rental homes during Thanksgiving and Christmas get-togethers. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Summer is the most expensive season in the New Bern area. Booking your New Bern vacation home in Fall or Spring months is our favorite way to save money on your rental home. Rental rates are lower, and you'll find a larger selection of acceptable homes. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a New Bern vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation near the ocean? Christmas, Thanksgiving, and New Years Eve are great times to gather with friends and family at the beach.
• Property managers sometimes offer promotional rates for active duty military and veterans. Make sure to check with your property manager to see if special discounts are available for your family.
• Property management companies often offer guests an option to obtain trip insurance. Trip insurance, which generally costs 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed time as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for details.
• Find a copy of your local New Bern visitors guide when you arrive at the rental property. If your rental property doesn't have one, you can find them at local shops and visitor centers. In addition to great local articles, visitor guides have money saving offers on nearby tours, shops, and attractions.

Use filters to narrow your rental search:

• Choose a group leader, choose your vacation dates, and select a budget.
• Note the number bedrooms and what type of bedroom configuration your family requires. 4BR w\/ Private Pool! 2nd Row to Beach has 4 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our New Bern rentals search.
• Precise information about bedrooms and bed counts & types is almost always available online. If not, contact the property management company before you book the vacation property. Note that most property listings specify maximum guest capacity, which often includes sofa beds.
• If your group is traveling with pets, you'll need to search for a pet-friendly vacation rental. Get information on breed, size, and type requirements. Some property owners charge pet deposits and fees.
• Are you visiting for a specific event or attraction? Use a map search to find nearby properties.
• Proper accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for those with limited mobility. .

More tips for your visit:

• Add the owner's contact info to your smartphone. Take a copy of arrival/departure procedures.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a fireplace, A/V setup or WIFI setup. Contact your owner. They are there to help! A brief telephone call prevents many problems.
• Keep the property locked while you are gone! Don't let burglars spoil your vacation.
• To make certain that no damages are attributed to your family's stay, make a record of any problem areas during check in. Make contact with the host immediately to record any pre-existing damages. If there is a dispute about legal responsibility later, having a record of issues and contact attempts will be valuable.
• Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking restrictions can make a stay more pleasurable. You will magnify your chance to make some new local friends, and resident neighbors are usually a terrific resource to find the best local spots.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Locals can frequently help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to find the best bike paths, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for BBQ?
• On check-out day, take a walk-through to make sure you didn't leave anything behind. Re-check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden treasure. Clean out the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Go through the rental a final time and scan for any damage. We recommend walking through with the property manager whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the host isn't available, ensure that you take photos of the rental to record its condition at check-out.
• Leave a review! Property owners rely on good feedback to inspire more bookings. They'll be thankful for your review. Alternatively, if something went wrong, other vacationing families will be thankful you shared your review and help them have the best future vacation. Remember to be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the property manager could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded reasonably to fix it.
