How to book the best Emerald Isle rental experience:

Cost saving strategies:

• Summer months are high season in the New Bern area. Book your rental home in the Fall or Spring to get the benefit of beautiful weather while saving money and avoiding crowded roads, restaurants, and activities. Many vacationers use this strategy to find larger homes within budget, or to reserve an oceanfront vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable during the Summer months.
• In the New Bern area, The sooner you can book a vacation home, the easier your search will be. The most desirable rental homes are booked early. Reserving your rental 6-12 months before your travel dates is recommended. Winter holidays are excellent times to plan and reserve your rental home.
• Some property managers offer discounts for veterans. Ask your host or property manager if special discounts are available for your family before you book.
• Property managers typically offer customers an option to add trip insurance. Trip insurance, which normally costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed time as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for additional information.
• Look for your local New Bern area magazine when you check-in. If your rental property doesn't have one, you can find them at local shops and visitor centers. In addition to great local stories, visitor guides contain money saving offers on nearby accommodations, tours and attractions.

How to choose and book your New Bern rental:

• Choose your vacation week and spending budget.
• Note the number bedrooms and what type of bedroom configuration your group needs. Family friendly getaway, 4 min walk from beach, quiet Bluewater Bay area has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Precise information about bedrooms and bed counts is generally available on booking websites. If you don't see them listed, contact the property manager before reserving the rental. Remember that most listings specify maximum guest capacity, which frequently includes pull-out couches.
• Does your group require unique amenities? Most websites include amenity lists and search filters. Use these filters to your advantage to find the perfect rental home.
• Proper accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for those with limited mobility. Confirm all required amenities are available before reserving a rental.
• If your group is bringing pets, search for a pet-friendly vacation rental. Make sure to ask for details on breed, size, and type requirements. Note that some property owners charge pet deposits and fees.

Tips to have a wonderful stay:

• Be sure you get the host's phone number and entry/exit procedures for your rental property. We recommend storing the manager's information in your smartphone and wallet.
• To make certain that no damages are attributed to your family's visit, note any problem areas when you arrive. E-mail the host right away to report your findings. If there is a dispute about who is responsible, having a record of issues and contact attempts will be useful.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a hot tub, elevator or appliance. Contact your host. They are there to help! A brief telephone call can prevent lots of problems.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like obnoxious visitors disrupting your life at home. Practice the golden rule for common sense. If they like you, locals might even recommend great restaurants and places you would have never otherwise known!
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Local residents can usually point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to go for the best drinks, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for BBQ?
• Lock your vacation home while you are out. Keep your property safe!
• When it's time to leave, complete a walk-through to confirm you didn't leave anything behind. Remember to check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden items. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Did your group have a excellent stay? Many rental websites make it easy for travelers to provide comments. If your rental and/or host was great, they would love to hear about it. If anything was inoperable and they failed to address it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make a note as part of your review.
