Private vacation home

Come stay in our handsome oceanfront home in the trendy Ocean Oaks neighborhood on Emerald Isle. We offer a wrap-around ocean view from the kitchen and living area, along with ocean-facing windows in each of our three bedrooms.

Our goal is to make your family feel welcome in one of the cleanest, nicest vacation units you have ever experienced. Much of our home was remodeled after Hurricane Florence, with coastal comfort in mind. Each bedroom features spa sheets and a intelligent TV. Our kitchen comes well supplied, and we include your basic oils, spices, condiments, detergents, and paper goods with your rental.

Outside, sun yourself on the upper deck, or grab a spot in the shade on our lower deck. We have a rinse shower down by the beach, and there is an enclosed shower under the home with hot water and a changing area for those who like to feel the breeze. Beach chairs and a bucket of toys are included.

For active visitors, there’s plenty to do. We have two kayaks beneath the home for use on the beach. The 11-mile Emerald Path bicycle trail runs right past our neighborhood and will carry you to the Point or up through town and all the way to Salter Path. Bring your own bicycles, or rent from one of our local stores! Golf courses and additional units for kayaking or paddle boarding in the sound are close by as well.

Strategies to get the perfect vacation rental experience:

When to book a New Bern rental home & When to go:

The earlier your group can book a vacation rental, the easier your search will be. The best rental properties are reserved very early. Reserving your vacation property up to 12 months before your vacation is recommended. Holiday gatherings are excellent times to search for and book your vacation rental.
Booking your New Bern vacation rental in Fall or Spring months is our favorite way to save money on your vacation home. Rental rates are lower, and you'll find a larger selection of acceptable properties. Many vacationers use this method to find larger homes within budget, or to book an oceanfront rental that would otherwise be unavailable during the high season.
Property management companies sometimes offer special rates for veterans and active duty military. Check with your host or property manager to see if special offers are available for your family before you book.
Booking websites frequently offer their guests an option to add vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which usually will 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 emergencies or weather disasters, as well as evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for additional information.
Many rental management companies and vacation rental houses supply New Bern area visitor guides which include money-saving deals, either offered independently by local businesses, or through a relationship with the rental management company and the business itself. You can also find visitors guide and coupon books at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers.

How to select the best rental:

Select your vacation dates and max budget.
Note the number bedrooms and what type of bedroom configuration your family needs. Updated Oceanfront Duplex in Ocean Oaks near the Point has 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our rentals search.
Specific details about bedrooms and bed types is often accessible on booking pages. If not, reach out to the host before booking the rental. Note that most property listings specify the max. guest capacity, which oftentimes includes pull out couches in living rooms.
Some rentals allow pets, and others don't. Acceptable types of dog or cat, weight and breeds may be restricted, and additional fees may apply. Ask the host about pets before booking.
Looking for particular amenities? Most rental websites include search filters with amenity lists.
Proper accessibility can make or break a vacation for the less-mobile. Confirm all necessary amenities are available and included before reserving a rental.

More tips for your visit:

Be sure you get the property manager's phone number and entry/exit procedures for your rental. Put the manager's contact information in your smartphone.
Ask questions. You may want instructions for a garage door opener, elevator or kitchen appliance. Contact your property manager. They are there to help! A brief phone call can prevent quite a few difficulties.
Lock your rental property while you are away! Don't let burglars spoil your trip.
Upon check-in, record any issues with the property and immediately contact the owner. Record all coorespondence.
Respecting quiet hours and parking regulations can make a stay more pleasurable. Be a good neighbor. You will enhance your chance to make local friends, and resident neighbors are usually an incredible resource to find the best local beaches and hangouts.
Don't forget to... Ask a local! Local residents can often help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to go for the best drinks, have a great night out, or the best spots for fishing?
At departure, complete a final walk-through to make sure you did not leave anything behind. Check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden treasure. 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.
Did your group have a fantastic vacation? Many vacation rental websites make it easy for clients to provide reviews. If your rental and/or property manager was great, they always love to hear your praise. If anything was defective and they failed to address it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make a note as part of your comments.
