Tips for getting the best Atlantic Beach vacation home experience:

Getting the most from your rental home budget:

• Book your vacation home as early as possible. Rental schedules generally become available a year in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many groups reserve their Summer vacation rentals during Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years Eve gatherings. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• June, July, and August are the most expensive months along the coast of NC. To find the best value, change your family's New Bern vacation to the Spring or Fall months. May, September, and October offer great temperatures, fewer crowds, and greatly reduced traffic. Many vacationers use this strategy to find larger homes within budget, or to book an oceanfront vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during the Summer. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a New Bern vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday on the coast? Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with friends and family at the beach.
• Some property managers offer promotional rates for veterans and active duty military. It's always a good idea to check with your property manager to see if special offers are available for your family.
• Property management companies frequently offer guests an option to buy trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which generally will cost you anywhere between 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any days missed as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as evacuation costs or charges, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance might be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for specifics.
• Many property management companies supply New Bern area travel guide magazines which will include money-saving deals, either offered independently by local companies, or through a relationship between the rental management company and the business itself. You can also find New Bern area magazine and coupon books at local shops and grocery stores.

How to choose and book the perfectvacation home:

• Start by choosing potential vacation weeks and a maximum budget.
• Decide how many bedrooms and what type of bedroom configuration your group requires. Blount Cottage- Oceanfront, Pet Friendly Home in Atlantic Beach, NC has 5 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms.
• Precise information about bedrooms and bed counts is generally accessible on booking websites. If not, email or call the property owner before you reserve the rental. Remember that most listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which often includes pull out couches in living rooms. You will need to work out which bed configuration is optimal for your family.
• Some properties allow pets, and others do not. Acceptable types of dog or cat, weight and breeds may be restricted, and added charges may apply. Ask the host about pet restrictions before booking.
• If there's an individual New Bern destination you simply love, browse properties that are either nearby, or those that cater to your requirements.
• Proper accessibility can make or break a vacation for persons with disabilities. Confirm all required amenities are available and included before reserving a rental.

Some things to know before you go:

• Review arrival and departure procedures before traveling. Add a note with the instructions to your phone, and take a printed backup.
• Hosts are available to help! Don't be shy to ask questions during your stay.
• Protect the property owner (and your stuff!) by locking the property when you are away, just like you would at home.
• To make sure no damages are attributed to your family's stay, inspect the property for any problem areas upon check in. E-mail the rental manager immediately to record your findings. If there is a dispute about legal responsibility later, having a record of issues and contact attempts will be useful.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like disagreeable vacationers bothering your quiet neighborhood. Employ the golden rule for common sense. Happy residents may even recommend great beaches and places you would've never otherwise known about!
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Local residents can usually help. Who better to ask where to book the best tours, have a great night out, or the best spots for fishing?
• Just prior to departing, complete a final walk-through to confirm you haven't forget any personal items. Re-check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden items. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Go through the rental a final time and keep an eye out for damage. We advise walking through with the host whenever possible. If the property manager isn't available, ensure that you take video of the property to record its condition at check-out.
• After your trip, leave feedback! Property managers rely on great ratings to stimulate new bookings. They'll be thankful for your review. Alternatively, if something went wrong, other vacationers will will be grateful for your feedback find their best vacation rental. Remember to be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the owner had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded reasonably to solve it.
