Tricks and tips to get the best Pine Knoll Shores vacation property experience:

When to book a New Bern rental & When to go:

• The sooner you can book a rental home, the easier your search will be. The best vacation rentals are booked very early. Reserving your vacation home six - twelve months before your travel dates is recommended. Holidays such as Christmas and Thanksgiving are excellent times to plan and book your vacation rental.
• Summer is high season in the New Bern area. To get the best value, consider changing your family's New Bern vacation week to the Spring or Fall seasons. May, September, and October offer excellent weather, , and reduced traffic. Many vacationers use this strategy to find larger homes within budget, or to reserve a beach front rental that would otherwise be unavailable during the Summer. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a New Bern vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation near the ocean? Christmas, Thanksgiving, and New Years Eve are great times to gather with loved ones at the beach.
• Property management companies sometimes offer special rates for veterans and active duty military. Remember to ask your property manager if rate reductions are available for your group before you book.
• Property management companies often offer their guests an option to buy vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which usually will cost you 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed trip time as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance can be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for program terms and fees.
• Look for your local New Bern visitors guide when you arrive at the rental property. If your rental property doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local shops and visitor centers. In addition to great information, visitor guides contain offers and deals for local restaurants, attractions, and tours.

Planning, picking, and booking the perfect New Bern rental:

• Begin by selecting your a vacation week and a max budget.
• Decide how many bedrooms and the configuration your group requires. Pine Knoll Shores Canal, NC Comfortable Beach Get-Away has 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our New Bern vacation rental search.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is generally available on booking pages. If they are not listed, email the property owner before you reserve the rental. Remember that most properties list maximum guest capacity, which frequently includes pull-out couches and bunk beds. You will need to determine what is optimal for your family.
• Some properties allow pets, but some do not. Allowable types of pet, size and breeds may be restricted, and added costs may apply. Ask the property management company about allowable pet guidelines before booking.
• Visiting for a single event or attraction? If so, use a map search to find nearby rentals.
• Proper accessibility can make or break a vacation for guests that require the use of a wheelchair. Confirm all necessary amenities are available and included before booking

More considerations for your visit:

• Review arrival and departure procedures before traveling. Save the instructions to your phone, and take a printed backup.
• Property managers are available to help! Feel free to ask any questions during your stay.
• Lock your rental while you're away. Keep your property safe!
• To make certain that no damages are attributed to your family's stay, note any problem areas during check in. Contact the host right away to document your findings. If there is a dispute about who is responsible, having a record of issues and contact attempts will be useful.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like disrespectful visitors disrupting your peace and quiet. Practice the golden rule for best judgement. Happy residents may even recommend great local food and scenic spots you would have never otherwise known!
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Local residents can usually help. Who better to ask where to launch your kayaks, have a great night out, or the best spots for crabbing?
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before you drive away, take a walk through the rental property to confirm you've collected all personal belongings. Check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden belongings. Clean out the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Go through the rental one final time and look for any damage. We recommend inspecting the property with the host whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the property manager isn't available, remember to take video and pictures of the property to record its condition at check-out.
• Did your group have a fantastic vacation? Many rental management companies make it easy for guests to provide comments. If your rental property and/or property manager was great, they would love to hear about it. If anything was wrong and they failed to address it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make it a point as part of your review.
