How to find the best Emerald Isle rental home experience:

How to get the best rental home value:

• Summer months are the most expensive season in the New Bern area. To get the best rental home for your budget, we strongly suggest booking in Spring or Fall. You'll enjoy lower rates, better selection, beautiful weather and the absence of giant crowds at New Bern restaurants, tours, and activities.
• The sooner you can reserve a vacation home, the better your selection will be. The most desirable vacation rentals are booked very early. Booking your rental home 6-12 months before your vacation is recommended. Christmas, Thanksgiving and New Years Eve are excellent times to search for and book your rental property.
• Some owners offer discounts for veterans and active duty military. Make sure to check with your property manager to see if rate reductions are available for your family.
• Property managers usually offer customers an option to obtain vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which normally costs 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any days missed as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance can be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for more information.
• Look for your local visitors guide when you check-in. If your rental doesn't have one, you can find them at local shops and visitor centers. In addition to great local stories, travel guides contain coupons for nearby restaurants, attractions, and tours.

Planning, selecting, and booking the rightvacation home:

• Start by having your group select trip dates and a spending budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and the configuration your family needs. Oceanfront Updated 5BR Duplex. Dog friendly! has 5 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms.
• Precise information about bedrooms and bed types is regularly available on booking pages. If you don't see them listed, email or call the property owner before you book your rental. Note that most properties list the max. guest capacity, which usually includes pull-out couches and bunk beds. You will need to determine what is right for your family.
• Is your family looking for special amenities? Most rental search websites include search filters for amenities. Amenity filters help you quickly remove less-optimal properties.
• Proper accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for those with limited mobility. .
• If your family is traveling with pets, you'll need to book a pet-friendly rental. Make sure to ask for information on breed, size, and type restrictions. Usually, property owners charge pet deposits and fees.

More considerations:

• Add the host's phone number to your smartphone. Understand and take a copy of arrival/departure procedures.
• Note any damages to the rental upon arrival, and immediately send them to the host. We specifically recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain time stamps that are valuable if a dispute arises.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a garage door opener, intercom or washer/dryer. Contact your host. They are there to help! A brief telephone call can prevent a lot of problems.
• Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking policies can make a stay more pleasurable. You'll magnify your chance to make some new local friends, and resident neighbors can be an excellent resource to find the best local beaches and restaurants.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Neighbors can often help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to take kids for a treat, have a great night out, or the best spots for fine dining?
• Ensure you protect the owner (and your things!) by locking the rental while you are gone, just like you would back home.
• Just before checking out, complete a walk-through to confirm you did not forget anything. Check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden treasure. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Document the condition of the property at check-out. We recommend taking a video during your final walk-through.
• Remember to leave a review! Hosts rely on great feedback to stimulate future reservations. They'll be grateful for your feedback. Alternatively, if something went awry, other vacationers will appreciate that you share your experience find their best rental home. Remember to be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the manager could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded quickly to remedy it.
