Getting the best Emerald Isle vacation property experience:

When to reserve a New Bern rental home & When to go:

• Summer months are the most expensive season in Emerald Isle. To find the best vacation home within your budget, we highly recommend reserving in the Fall or Spring shoulder seasons. You'll benefit from lower rental rates, better selection, warm weather and the absence of large crowds at local restaurants, tours, and activities. Many vacationers use this strategy to reserve larger homes, or to reserve a beach front rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during June, July, and August. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a New Bern vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation on the coast? Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with friends and family at the beach.
• Book your vacation home as soon as possible. Rental schedules generally open twelve months in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many families book their Summer rental homes during holiday gatherings. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Property managers sometimes offer discounts for veterans. Ask your host or property manager if discounts are available for your group before you book.
• Management companies and individual rental owners typically offer renters an option to obtain trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which costs between 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed days as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as ensuing additional evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for details.
• Many property management companies supply New Bern area visitors guides which include coupons, either offered directly by local businesses, or through a partnership between the management company and the business itself. You can also find visitors guide and coupon books at local gas stations and shopping centers.

How to choose the best rental in Emerald Isle:

• To start, have your group decide on dates and a spending budget.
• Decide how many beds and the configuration your group needs. Carolina Sunshine, Oceanfront House in Emerald Isle, NC! has 5 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is normally available on booking websites. If they are not listed, call the host before you reserve the rental. Remember that most listings specify maximum guest capacity, which oftentimes includes pull out couches in living rooms.
• If there's a particular New Bern attraction you are enamored with, look for rentals that are either close by, or those that cater especially to your needs.
• Suitable accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for persons with disabilities. Make certain to inquire about wheel chair accessibility, pool lifts and specialized equipment needs.
• If your group is bringing pets, you must reserve a pet-friendly property. Request information on breed, size, and type restrictions. Note that some hosts charge pet deposits and fees.

Some things to know before you go:

• Review arrival and departure procedures before leaving home. Take a printed copy, and save the directions to your smartphone.
• Document any damages to the rental upon arrival, and immediately contact the property manager. We especially recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain time stamps that can be helpful if a dispute arises.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a fireplace, intercom or thermostat. Contact your owner. They are there to help! A brief text message prevents lots of issues.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like troublesome vacationers disrupting your peaceful home life. Practice the golden rule for common sense. Happy residents may even recommend great beaches and attractions you would have not otherwise known about!
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Local residents can typically help. Who better to ask where to go for the best drinks, have a great night out, or the best spots for bird watching?
• Lock your vacation home while you're away. Keep your property safe!
• Just prior to departing, complete a final walk-through to make sure you did not forget anything. Check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden items. Clean out the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Go through the property one final time and keep an eye out for any damage. We suggest walking through with the host whenever possible. If the manager isn't available, take photos and video of the property to record its condition at check-out.
• Did your family have a fantastic time? Most vacation rental websites make it easy for clients to provide comments. If your rental and/or property manager was fantastic, they always love to hear your praise. If anything was defective and they failed to correct it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make a note as part of your review.
