Tricks and tips for getting the best Emerald Isle rental experience:

Cost saving strategies:

• Reserve your vacation rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules generally become available 12 months in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many families book their Summer vacation rentals during Christmas and Thanksgiving get-togethers. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• June, July, and August are high season in Emerald Isle. To find the best rental home within budget, we recommend reserving in the Fall or Spring shoulder seasons. You'll benefit from lower rental rates, greater selection, beautiful weather and the absence of large crowds at local restaurants, tours, and activities. Many vacationers use this strategy to reserve larger homes, or to reserve a beach front rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during the Summer months.
• Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property owner or host whether your vacationing group qualifies for a price reduction.
• Management companies and individual rental owners often offer guests an option to buy trip insurance. Trip insurance, which costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed trip time as a result of medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for details.
• Find a copy of your local New Bern area magazine when you check-in. If your rental home doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local grocery stores and visitor centers. In addition to great information, visitors guide magazines have discounts for nearby tours and attractions.

Finding the perfect vacation rental in Emerald Isle:

• Begin by selecting your a vacation week and a spending budget.
• Decide how many beds and what type of bedroom configuration your family requires. Oceanside, 5 min walk to Beach, Comfy & Clean, Quiet Neighborhood!!! has 4 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our New Bern rentals search.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed types is commonly available on booking websites. If not, email the property management company before you book your home. Remember that most properties list maximum guest capacity, which oftentimes includes sofa beds. You will need to work out what configuration is optimal for your family.
• If your family is traveling with pets, search for a pet-friendly property. Ask for details on breed, weight, and type restrictions. Usually, property managers charge pet deposits and fees.
• If there's a specific New Bern beach you are enamored with, look for rentals that are either close by, or those that cater especially to your requirements.
• Proper accessibility can make or break a vacation for persons with a disability. .

Considerations for your stay:

• Review check in & check out procedures before traveling. Add a note with the directions to your smartphone, and take a printed backup.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a garage door opener, television set or appliance. Contact your property manager. They are there to help! A brief telephone call prevents a lot of issues.
• Lock your rental home while you are out. Keep your property safe!
• At Check-in, document any issues with the rental property and immediately alert the host. Keep records of all correspondence just in case a dispute arises.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like loud vacationers disrupting your peaceful home life. Employ the golden rule for common sense. Happy residents may even recommend great beaches and places you would have not otherwise known about!
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Locals can usually help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to find the fresh catch of the day, have a great night out, or the best spots for fishing?
• Double-check the rental property to make sure that you've packed all personal items on check-out day. Make sure to check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden items. Clean out the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Document the condition of the property at check-out. We recommend taking a video during your final walk-through.
• After your trip, leave feedback! Property owners rely on good ratings to inspire more bookings. They'll be thankful for your feedback. Alternatively, if something wasn't as described, other families will be thankful you shared your experience find their best rental home. Remember to be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the owner had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded quickly to remedy it.
