Strategies to get the perfect Beaufort rental experience:

When to visit & When to reserve a Beaufort rental home:

• Summertime is the most expensive season in Beaufort. To find the largest rental home for your budget, we highly recommend reserving in the Fall or Spring shoulder seasons. You'll enjoy lower rental rates, greater selection, beautiful weather and the absence of giant crowds at popular attractions and restaurants.
• Reserve your rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules generally open 12 months in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many families reserve their Summer vacations during Winter holiday gatherings. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Property managers sometimes offer rate reductions for active duty military and veterans. Check with your host or property manager to see if special discounts are available for your family.
• Property management companies often offer guests an option to add vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which generally will cost 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed vacation time as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance might be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for more information.
• Find a copy of your local New Bern visitors guide magazine upon checking in. If your rental home doesn't have one, you can find them at local shops and visitor centers. In addition to great local articles, visitor guides contain discounts for local tours, shops, and attractions.

Finding the best rental in the New Bern area:

• Begin by selecting vacation dates and a maximum budget.
• Note the number bedrooms and the configuration your family requires. Sound Front Home with Dock (Downeast Retreat) has 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our New Bern vacation rental search.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts & types is commonly available on booking websites. If they are not listed, contact the property management company before you book the rental. Note that most property listings specify maximum guest capacity, which often includes sofa beds and bunks.
• Visiting for a single event? Try a map search to find nearby properties.
• Proper accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for persons with a disability. .
• Do your family pets travel with you? Many vacation homes allow animals, but guidelines and restrictions apply. Allowable pet type, breed, and size are often limited. Remember to ask the property manager before booking, and study your agreement! Pet fees or costs could be applied to your agreement.

Have a great stay:

• Get the owner's contact number and check in/check out procedures for your rental property. We recommend storing the host's information in your smartphone.
• To ensure that damages aren't attributed to your family's visit, make note of any problem areas upon check in. E-mail the host right away to document any pre-existing damages. If there is a dispute, having the recorded concerns and contact attempts will be useful.
• Hosts are available to help! Don't be shy to ask any questions during your stay.
• Be respectful. Often, nearby homes are occupied by local residents. Respecting noise limits and parking policies can make a stay significantly more pleasurable.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Local residents can frequently help. Who better to ask where to order delicious takeout, have a great night out, or the best spots for fishing?
• Lock your rental home while you are away. Protect your property!
• When it's time to leave, take a final walk-through to make sure you did not leave anything behind. Remember to check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden items. Clean the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Walk through the property a final time and scan for damage. We advise walking through with the host whenever possible. If the property manager is not available, take photos and video of the property to record its condition.
• Did your group have a fantastic time? Many rental managers make it easy for travelers to provide feedback. If your property and/or host was fantastic, they will likely appreciate your kind words. If anything was wrong and they failed to fix it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make it a point as part of your review.
