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

How to get the best rental home value:

• Book your vacation rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules generally open a year in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many families reserve their Summer vacations during Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years Eve gatherings. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Summertime is the most expensive season in the New Bern area. Book your New Bern vacation home in the Fall or Spring shoulder seasons to enjoy warm weather while saving money and avoiding crowds.
• Some owners offer discounts for veterans. Ask your host or property manager if special discounts are available for your family before you book.
• Property managers typically offer their guests an option to buy vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which will generally cost anywhere between 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed trip time as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance might be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for additional information.
• Many rental management companies and vacation rental houses supply New Bern area visitors guide magazines which include coupons, either offered independently by local businesses, or through a relationship between the rental management company and the business itself. You can also find New Bern visitors guide magazine and coupon books at local shops and grocery stores.

Finding the best rental home in Emerald Isle:

• Choose a group leader, select your trip dates, and choose a spending budget.
• Note the number beds and what type of bedroom configuration you need. Spacious 5 BR Cottage with Private Pool, Hot Tub, Game Room & Oceanviews has 5 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our New Bern rental home search.
• Specific details about bedrooms and bed types is regularly available on booking pages. If you don't see them listed, contact the host before you reserve your home. Remember that most properties list the maximum guest capacity, which usually includes sofa beds. You'll need to establish what configuration is optimal for your vacation family.
• If your group is vacationing with pets, search for a property that allows animals. Make sure to ask for details on breed, size, and type restrictions. Some property managers require additional pet deposits and fees.
• Looking for special amenities? Most websites include search filters with amenity lists. Filtering by amenity will allow you to quickly find the perfect rental home.
• Proper accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for the less-mobile. .

Some things to know before you go:

• Be sure you get the host's contact number and arrival/departure procedures for your rental property. Put the host's contact information in your smartphone.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a fireplace, elevator or WIFI setup. Contact your property manager. They are there to help! A brief text message prevents many difficulties.
• Protect the property owner (and your things!) by locking the rental while you are out, just like you would at home.
• Make a record of any issues with the rental during check in, and immediately contact the property manager. We specifically recommend e-mails and text messages, as they usually contain time stamps that are useful if a dispute is filed.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like disrespectful vacationers bothering your peaceful home life. Apply the golden rule for best judgement. Happy residents may even recommend great restaurants and attractions you would have never otherwise known about!
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Residents can usually help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to charter a fishing boat, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fishing?
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before you drive away, take a walk through the rental to reconfirm you've collected all belongings. Check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden treasure. Clean the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Go through the property a final time and look for damages to contents or the property itself. We recommend walking through with the property manager whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the host isn't available, ensure that you take video and pictures of the rental to record its condition.
• Did you have a terrific vacation? Many rental websites make it easy for customers to provide reviews. If your rental property and/or property manager was wonderful, they will likely appreciate your kind words. If anything was out of order and they failed to fix it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make a note as part of your feedback.
