Vacation rental booking tips:

Getting the most from your budget:

• Reserve your rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules generally open a year in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many families book their Summer vacations during holiday get-togethers. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Summer time is high season in Emerald Isle. Reserve your rental property in the Spring or Fall to enjoy gorgeous weather while saving money and avoiding crowds. Many vacationers use this strategy to reserve larger homes, or to reserve an oceanfront rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during the high season. 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? Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with friends and family at your favorite beach.
• Some property managers offer promotional rates for veterans. Make sure to check with your property manager to see if rate reductions are available for your family.
• Property managers frequently offer customers an option to add vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which normally costs between 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed vacation time as a result of medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance can be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for additional information.
• Look for your local New Bern area magazine when you arrive at the rental property. If your rental property doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local grocery stores and visitor centers. In addition to great articles, travel guides contain coupons for local accommodations, tours and attractions.

Make a plan and choose a perfectrental home:

• Begin by selecting potential vacation weeks and a budget.
• Decide how many bedrooms and the configuration your family needs. Prior Engagement: Pet Friendly Beach Cottage at Emerald Isle on The Point has 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our search.
• Specific information regarding bedrooms and bed counts is regularly accessible on booking websites. If not, contact the property manager before you reserve the home. Note that most property listings specify the max. guest capacity, which frequently includes pull-out couches and bunk beds.
• If your group is bringing pets, you will need a property that allows animals. Make sure to ask for information on breed, weight, and type requirements. Be aware that some property owners charge additional pet fees.
• Visiting for a specific event? Use a map search to locate nearby rentals.
• Proper accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for the less-mobile. Confirm all necessary amenities are available before reserving a rental.

Have a fantastic stay:

• Be sure you get the owner's phone number and entry/exit procedures for your rental home.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a fireplace, elevator or kitchen appliance. Contact your host. They are there to help! A brief call prevents quite a few concerns.
• Protect the owner (and your things!) by locking and securing the home while you are out, just like you would at home.
• To make sure damages are not linked to your family's visit, note any problem areas during check in. Contact the host immediately to document any damages. If there is a dispute about legal responsibility later, having the recorded problems and contact attempts will be helpful.
• Respecting quiet hours and parking restrictions can make a stay more pleasurable. You'll enhance your chance to make local friends, and resident neighbors are an incredible source for finding the best local scenic spots.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Residents can usually point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to get the best breakfast in town, have a great night out, or the best spots for shopping?
• Double-check the rental property to make sure that you've packed all of your family's items on check-out day. Check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden items. Clean the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Walk through the rental a final time and scan for damage. We recommend inspecting the property with the host whenever possible. If the host isn't available, remember to take video and pictures of the rental to record its condition at check-out.
• Remember to leave a review! Hosts rely on good reviews to inspire more bookings. They'll be thankful for your review. Alternatively, if something wasn't as described, other vacationing families will be thankful you shared your review find their best rental home. Please be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the manager could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded reasonably to remedy it.
