How to get the best New Bern vacation rental experience:

Sticking to a rental home budget:

• June, July, and August are high season in the New Bern area. Booking your vacation rental in the Fall or Spring shoulder seasons is one of our best tips for saving money on your vacation. Rates are lower, and you'll find a better selection of acceptable homes. 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 and Christmas are great times to gather with loved ones at your favorite beach.
• Book your rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules usually become available 12 months in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many families book their Summer vacation rentals during Christmas and Thanksgiving gatherings. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property owner whether your group qualifies for a price reduction.
• Property management companies often offer customers an option to add vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which generally will cost anywhere between 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed days as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for details.
• Look for your local New Bern area magazine upon checking 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 local articles, visitors guides contain money saving offers on nearby attractions, tours, restaurants, and shops.

Make a plan and pick your prefect New Bern vacation home:

• Begin by choosing your vacation dates and a spending budget.
• Decide how many bedrooms and the configuration you need. Quaint ground floor guest house in historic Beaufort, NC. has 2 bedrooms and 1 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our New Bern rental home search.
• Specific information regarding bedrooms and bed counts is regularly available on booking pages. If not, contact the property manager before booking your home. Remember that most properties list the max. guest capacity, which frequently includes sofa beds. You'll need to determine what configuration is suitable for your vacation.
• Visiting for a single attraction? Try a map search to browse nearby properties.
• Proper accessibility can make or break a vacation for persons with disabilities. Remember to confirm all necessary amenities are available and included before reserving a rental
• Traveling with pets? Many vacation homes allow animals, but guidelines and restrictions apply. Type of pet, size and breeds may be limited. Make sure to ask before booking, and study your agreement! Extra fees or applied to your agreement.

Have a great stay:

• Take a copy of the owner's contact number and entry/exit procedures for your rental home. Store the manager's information in your smartphone.
• To ensure that no damages are linked to your family's visit, record any problem areas when you arrive. text the host immediately to record any pre-existing damages. If there is a dispute, having a record of problems and contact attempts will be useful.
• Property managers are available to help! Don't be shy to ask any questions during your stay.
• Respecting quiet hours and parking restrictions can make a stay more pleasurable. Be a good neighbor. You will increase your chance to make local friends, and resident neighbors are usually an excellent resource to find the best local beaches and hangouts.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Locals can frequently help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to get the best breakfast in town, have a great night out, or the best spots for BBQ?
• Protect the rental owner (and your things!) by locking the rental while you are gone, just like you would back home.
• Double-check every room of the property to confirm that you've packed all of your family's items on check-out day. Remember to check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden belongings. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Inspect the property one final time and look for any damage. We suggest walking through with the host whenever you can. If the host isn't available, remember to take photos of the property to record its condition at check-out.
• Did your group have a great stay? Many vacation rental websites make it easy for clients to provide feedback. If your property and/or property manager was terrific, they would love to hear it. If anything was defective and they failed to correct it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make it a point as part of your review.
