Our top Emerald Isle rental property booking tips:

Money saving strategies:

• Summer is high season in the New Bern area. Reserving a rental home in Fall or Spring months is our best tip for saving money on your vacation rental. Rental rates are lower, and you'll find a better selection of acceptable properties. Many vacationers use this strategy to reserve larger homes, or to book an oceanfront rental that would otherwise be unavailable during the Summer. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a New Bern vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday on the coast? Christmas, Thanksgiving, and New Years Eve are great times to gather with loved ones at your favorite beach.
• Book your vacation home as soon as possible. Rental schedules generally open 12 months in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many families book their Summer rentals during Christmas and Thanksgiving get-togethers. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Some property management companies offer discounts or promotional rates for veterans. Check with your host or property manager to see if special offers are available for your family.
• Booking websites often offer customers an option to obtain vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which usually will cost 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 hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for details.
• Often, property management companies and vacation rental houses supply New Bern area visitor guides that include money-saving offers, either offered independently by local businesses, or by way of a partnership between the property management company and the business itself. You can also find New Bern visitors guide and coupon books at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers.

Choosing and booking the rightrental:

• First, have your group choose a vacation week and a spending budget.
• Decide how many beds and the bed configuration your group needs. Central Emerald Isle, Private Beach Parking has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our New Bern rental home search.
• Specific information about bedrooms and bed counts & types is normally accessible on booking pages. If not, email or call the property management company before booking the property. Note that most property listings specify maximum guest capacity, which frequently includes pull-out couches and bunk beds.
• If there's a particular New Bern destination you are enamored with, look for rentals that are either close by, or those that cater to your needs.
• Appropriate accessibility can make or break a vacation for persons with disabilities. Make certain to ask about wheel chair entry, pool lifts and specialized equipment needs.
• If your group is bringing pets, you must book a pet-friendly property. Get specifics on breed, size, and type restrictions. Often, hosts charge additional pet fees.

More tips for your stay:

• Add the property manager's contact information to your smartphone. Print and take a copy of arrival/departure procedures.
• Make a record of any damages to the rental upon arrival, and immediately contact the host. We especially recommend e-mails and text messages, as they usually contain built-in time stamps that are beneficial if a dispute is filed.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a garage door opener, television set or coffee maker. Contact your owner. They are there to help! A brief call can prevent a lot of problems.
• Respect your neighbors. Often times, surrounding homes are occupied by local residents. Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking rules is the right thing to do.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Locals can usually point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to find the best bike paths, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for shopping?
• Keep your rental home locked while you're away! Don't let thieves ruin your family vacation.
• Double-check every room of the rental property to confirm that you've packed all of your family's items at departure. Remember to check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden items. Clean out the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Go through the rental one final time and look for any damage. We suggest walking through with the host whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the property manager is not available, remember to take video of the rental to record its condition.
• Did your family have a wonderful stay? Many rental home management companies make it easy for vacationers to provide feedback. If your rental and/or property manager was terrific, they would love to hear about it. If anything was imperfect and they failed to address it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make a note as part of your feedback.
