Tips and Tricks for getting the perfect vacation property experience:

Sticking to your spending budget:

• Summertime is the most expensive season along the coast of NC. To book the largest rental home within budget, we highly recommend booking in the Fall or Spring. You'll benefit from lower rental rates, better selection, beautiful weather and the absence of giant crowds at your favorite restaurants and activities. 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? Christmas, Thanksgiving, and New Years Eve are great times to gather with friends and family at your favorite beach.
• Reserve your rental as early as possible. Rental schedules generally open twelve months in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many groups book their Summer rental homes during Winter holiday gatherings. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property manager or host if your family qualifies for a price reduction or discount.
• Property management companies frequently offer their guests an option to add vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which generally will cost between 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed vacation time as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel stay or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance can be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for program terms and fees.
• Often, property management companies supply New Bern area travel guides which include coupons, either offered directly by local companies, or by way of a relationship between the property management company and the business itself. You can also find New Bern area magazine and coupon books at local gas stations and shopping centers.

Use filters to narrow your search:

• First and foremost, have your group choose dates and a spending budget.
• Decide how many bedrooms and what type of bedroom configuration you need. Family affordable & close enough to all the fun stuff! has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts is usually available on booking websites. If not, email or call the property owner before you reserve the vacation home. Remember that most properties list the max. guest capacity, which frequently includes pull-out couches.
• Visiting for a specific event? Use a map search to browse nearby rentals.
• Proper accessibility can make or break a vacation for persons with a disability. .
• Are you traveling with furry, four-legged family members? Many vacation homes allow animals, but guidelines and restrictions apply. Allowable pet type, breed, and size are often limited. Make sure to ask before booking, and study your agreement! Pet fees or charges could be applied to your agreement.

Have a fantastic stay:

• Take a copy of the property manager's phone number and arrival/departure procedures for your rental home.
• To make sure no damages are linked to your visit, inspect the property for any problem areas upon check in. Make contact with the property manager immediately to relay any damages. If there is a dispute, having a record of concerns and contact attempts will be helpful.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a garage door opener, intercom or kitchen appliance. Contact your property manager. They are there to help! A brief telephone call prevents many difficulties.
• Respecting quiet hours and parking restrictions can make a stay more pleasurable. You'll magnify your chance to make some new local friends, and resident neighbors can be an excellent source for finding the best local scenic spots.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Locals can frequently help. Who better to ask where to go for the best drinks, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for BBQ?
• Protect the property owner (and your things!) by locking and securing the home while you are out, just like you would back home.
• Re-check every room of the property to make sure that you've packed all of your belongings on check-out day. Make sure to check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden items. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Go through the property a final time and scan for any damage. We advise inspecting the property with the property manager whenever possible. If the manager isn't available, remember to take video and pictures of the property to record its condition at check-out.
• Did your family have a wonderful vacation? Many rental management companies make it easy for clients to provide feedback. If your rental and/or property manager was great, they always love to hear your praise. If anything was defective and they failed to address it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make a note as part of your comments.
