Strategies for getting the perfect Atlantic Beach rental experience:

When to visit & When to reserve a Atlantic Beach rental home:

• The earlier you can book a rental home, the easier your search will be. The best rental properties are booked early. Reserving your rental six to twelve months before your vacation dates is recommended. Holiday gatherings are excellent times to search for and book your rental home.
• Summertime is the most expensive season in coastal NC. Booking in the Fall or Spring shoulder seasons is a great way to save on your vacation home. Rental rates are lower, and you'll find a larger selection of desirable homes. Many vacationers use this strategy to find larger homes within budget, or to book a beach front rental that would otherwise be unavailable during the Summer months. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a New Bern vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday near the ocean? Christmas, Thanksgiving, and New Years Eve are great times to gather with family and friends at the beach.
• Some owners offer discounts for veterans. Check with your property manager to see if special offers are available for your group before you book.
• Booking websites often offer their guests an option to buy vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which costs 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed trip time as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for program terms and fees.
• Often, property management companies supply New Bern area visitor guides which include special offers, either offered independently by local companies, or by way of a partnership between the management company and the business itself. You can also find New Bern visitors guide and coupon books at local shops and grocery stores.

Use filters to search efficiently:

• Choose vacation week and maximum budget.
• Decide how many beds and what type of bedroom configuration your family needs. Sward Shack - Beautiful waterview has 4 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms.
• Specific information regarding bedrooms and bed types is almost always accessible online. If they are not listed, contact the property owner before you reserve the property. Note that most property listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which frequently includes sofa beds in living rooms.
• Are you traveling with furry, four-legged family members? Many vacation homes allow animals, but guidelines and restrictions apply. Type of pet, size and breeds may be limited. Ask your host before booking, and study your rental agreement! Extra fees or may be applied to your agreement.
• Are you visiting for a single attraction? Use a map search to find nearby properties.
• Suitable accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for the less-mobile. Confirm all necessary amenities are included before booking.

Tips for a wonderful stay:

• Review check in & check out procedures before leaving home. Save the instructions to your phone, and take a printed copy.
• Property managers are available to help! Feel free to ask questions during your stay.
• Protect the owner (and your stuff!) by locking and securing the home while you are out, just like you would back home.
• Document any issues with the property at check in, and immediately e-mail them to the host. We specifically recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain built-in time stamps that can be valuable if damages are attributed to your stay.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like loud visitors disrupting your peaceful neighborhood. Employ the golden rule for best judgement. If they like you, locals might even recommend great restaurants and attractions you would've not otherwise known about!
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Local residents can frequently help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to book the best tours, have a great night out, or the best spots for fine dining?
• When it's time to leave, take a final walk-through to make sure you have not leave anything behind. Remember to check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden items. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Document the condition of the property at check-out. We recommend taking a video during your final walk-through.
• Did your group have a fantastic vacation? Many rental management companies make it easy for travelers to provide comments. If your rental and/or property manager was great, they always love to hear your praise. If anything was inoperable and they failed to address it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make it a point as part of your review.
