Rental home tips:

Get the most from your rental budget:

• In the New Bern area, The sooner you can book, the easier your search will be. The most desirable properties are reserved very early. Reserving your rental property up to 12 months before your vacation dates is recommended. Winter holidays are excellent times to plan and book your rental property.
• June, July, and August are the most expensive months in the New Bern area. To get the best value, consider shifting your vacation dates to the Spring or Fall months. May, September, and October offer excellent temperatures, , and reduced traffic. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a New Bern vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday near the ocean? Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with family and friends at your favorite beach.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property manager or host whether your vacationing group qualifies for a special promotion or discount.
• Property managers usually offer customers an option to buy trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which usually costs between 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for days missed as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as ensuing additional evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for details.

You can also find New Bern visitors guide magazine and coupon books at local shops and grocery stores.

• Specific information about bedrooms and bed counts & types is usually accessible on booking pages. If they are not listed, reach out to the property owner before you book the vacation home. Note that most listings specify the max. guest capacity, which oftentimes includes sofa beds and bunks. You'll need to work out what is optimal for your vacation.
• If your group is bringing pets, you will need a pet-friendly property. Get information on breed, weight, and type requirements. Often, property managers charge pet deposits and fees.
• If there's a specific New Bern attraction you are enamored with, look for rentals that are either close by, or those that cater to your desires.
• Appropriate accessibility can make or break a vacation for the less-mobile. .

More considerations for your visit:

• Store the manager's contact information in your smartphone.
• Hosts are available to help! Don't be shy to ask any questions during your stay.
• Lock your vacation home while you're out and about. Keep your property safe!
• During arrival, note any damages to the rental property and immediately alert the property manager. Keep records of all correspondence in case a dispute arises.
• Be respectful. Often, adjacent homes are filled by local residents. Respecting quiet hours and parking policies reduces conflict and allows everyone to enjoy their day.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Neighbors can often help. Who better to ask where to find the fresh catch of the day, have a great night out, or the best spots for bird watching?
• Re-check the property to make sure that you've packed all belongings at departure. Make sure to check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden belongings. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Document the condition of the property at check-out. We recommend taking a video during your final walk-through.
• Did you have a excellent time? Most rental managers make it easy for vacationers to provide reviews. If your rental property and/or host was wonderful, they would love to hear it. If anything was wrong and they failed to correct it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make it a point as part of your comments.
