How to get the best vacation property experience:

Finding the best value:

• Summer time is high season in the New Bern area. To get the most suitable rental for your budget, we suggest reserving in Spring or Fall. You'll benefit from lower rental rates, greater selection, beautiful weather and the absence of giant crowds at popular New Bern attractions and restaurants. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, or to reserve a beach front vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable during June, July, and August.
• Reserve your vacation rental as early as possible. Rental schedules generally open twelve months in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many groups reserve their Summer rental homes during Christmas and Thanksgiving gatherings. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective host if your family qualifies for a special promotion or discount.
• Property managers usually offer customers an option to add trip insurance. Trip insurance, which usually will cost between 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any days missed as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance might be a a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for details.
• Look for your local New Bern visitors guide upon arrival. If your rental doesn't have one, you can find them at local grocery stores and visitor centers. In addition to great local articles, visitors guide magazines contain coupons for local tours, shops, and attractions.

How to pick the best vacation rental:

• Select a group lead, select your dates, and select a max budget.
• Note the number bedrooms and the bed configuration your group needs. AfterDune Shade at Emerald Isle has 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms.
• Precise details about bedrooms and bed types is often accessible on booking pages. If they are not listed, email or call the property manager before booking your home. Remember that most listings specify maximum guest capacity, which often includes sofa beds in living rooms. You'll need to establish what bed configuration is optimal for your family.
• If there's a specific New Bern beach you simply love, search for properties that are either close by, or those that cater to your needs.
• Appropriate accessibility can make or break a vacation for the less-mobile. Remember to confirm all required amenities are available and included before reserving a rental
• Some rental properties allow pets, but others don't. Allowable types of pet, weight and breeds may be restricted, and added costs may apply. Ask the host about pet restrictions before booking.

More tips for your stay:

• Store the owner's information in your smartphone.
• To ensure that damages are not linked to your family's visit, inspect the property for any problem areas during arrival. E-mail the property manager immediately to relay any issues. If there is a dispute, having a record of problems and contact attempts will be helpful.
• Property managers are great sources of help! Feel free to ask any questions during your stay.
• Don't forget to respect your neighbors. Often times, nearby homes are occupied by local residents. Respecting noise limits and parking rules can make a stay significantly more pleasurable.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Local residents can typically help. Who better to ask where to book the best tours, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for shopping?
• Protect the owner (and your things!) by locking and securing the home while you are gone, just like you would back home.
• Upon check-out, complete a walk-through to confirm you haven't forget anything. Make sure to check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden belongings. Clean out the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Did you have a fantastic vacation? Most rental home management companies make it easy for clients to provide reviews. If your property and/or host was great, they always love to hear your praise. 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 a note as part of your feedback.
