Every time of the year is special and there is no bad day at the beach. We've adored the strong winds and powerful waves during tropical storms, the striking hot days of summer, and the calming cool days of autumn. The mere sound of the ocean waves brings a calmness to weary travelers. It's nice to go to sleep and wake up to the steady rhythm of the Atlantic Ocean.

Tips and Tricks to get the perfect rental home experience:

Finding your perfect vacation home:

• To find the best rental home within budget, we highly recommend booking in Spring or Fall. You'll enjoy lower rental rates, greater selection, beautiful weather and the absence of large crowds at popular attractions and restaurants. Many vacationers use this strategy to find larger homes within budget, or to book a beach front vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during June, July, and August. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter 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.
• In the New Bern area, The earlier your group can book a vacation rental, the easier your search will be. The best rental homes are booked very early. Reserving your vacation rental six to twelve months before your vacation is recommended. Winter holidays are excellent times to plan and book your rental.
• Property managers sometimes offer rate reductions for veterans and active duty military. Ask your property manager if special offers are available for your group before you book.
• Management companies and individual rental owners typically offer renters an option to add vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which commonly will cost between 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed trip time as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance can be a a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for additional information.
• Many property management companies and vacation rental houses supply New Bern area visitors guide magazines which include coupons, either offered independently by local businesses, or by way of a relationship with the rental management company and the business itself. You can also find visitors guide and coupon books at local shops and grocery stores.

How to pick the perfect vacation home in Emerald Isle:

• Begin by choosing your the best vacation week and a spending budget.
• Decide how many bedrooms and what type of bedroom configuration your family needs. Oceanfront Sanctuary-Relax & Recharge-5BR 3BA -Great Island Location! has 5 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms.
• Specific information regarding bedrooms and bed counts is almost always available on booking websites. Otherwise, email or call the host before reserving your rental. Note that most properties list maximum guest capacity, which typically includes sofa beds in living rooms. You'll need to establish what configuration is best for your vacation group.
• Are you visiting for a single attraction? If so, use a map search to find nearby rentals.
• Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for persons with a disability. Confirm all required amenities are included before booking.
• Traveling with pets? Many vacation homes allow animals, but guidelines and restrictions apply. Type of pet, size and breeds may be limited. Remember to ask the property manager before booking, and study your agreement! Pet fees or costs could be applied to your contract.

Additional considerations:

• Add the host's contact info to your smartphone. Understand and take a copy of check in/check out procedures.
• To make sure that no damages are attributed to your family's visit, inspect the rental for any problem areas upon your arrival. Make contact with the host right away to report any damages. If there is a dispute about legal responsibility later, having the recorded problems and contact attempts will be useful.
• Hosts are available to help! Feel free to ask questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Respect the neighborhood. Often times, adjacent homes are filled by permanent residents. Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking policies can make a stay significantly more pleasurable.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Residents can typically help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to rent beach equipment, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fine dining?
• Protect the owner (and your things!) by locking and securing the home while you are away, just like you would back home.
• Double-check every room of the property to make sure that you've packed all of your belongings at check-out. Check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden treasure. Clean the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Did you have a fantastic vacation? Many rental managers make it easy for customers to provide reviews. If your rental and/or property manager was great, they would love to hear about it. If anything was defective and they failed to correct it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make a note as part of your feedback.
