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

• Summer is the most expensive season in coastal NC. Reserve your New Bern rental in Fall or Spring months to get the benefit of beautiful weather while saving money and avoiding crowds.
• In the New Bern area, The sooner your group can book a rental home, the easier your search will be. The most desirable rental homes are reserved very early. Booking your vacation home up to twelve months before your vacation dates is recommended. Christmas, Thanksgiving and New Years Eve are excellent times to plan and reserve your rental.
• Some property managers offer rate reductions for veterans. Remember to ask your property manager if discounts are available for your group before you book.
• Property managers typically offer renters an option to add trip insurance. Trip insurance, which normally will cost 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed days as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel stay or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for additional information.
• Often, management companies supply New Bern area travel guides that include special offers, either offered directly by local companies, or by way of a relationship with the rental management company and the business itself. You can also find New Bern area magazine and coupon books at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers.

Advice for a smooth stay:

• To make sure that no damages are linked to your visit, note any problem areas upon your arrival. Make contact with the rental manager immediately to relay any damages. If there is a dispute, having the recorded issues and contact attempts will be valuable.
• Property managers are available to help! Don't be shy to ask any questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking rules can make a stay more pleasurable. You'll magnify your chance to make local friends, and resident neighbors are usually an excellent source for finding the best local beaches and restaurants.

• Lock your rental home while you are away. Protect the owner's property and your stuff!
• Just prior to departing, complete a walk-through to make sure you did not forget any personal items. Re-check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden items. Clean out the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Walk through the property one final time and keep an eye out for damages to contents or the property itself. We advise inspecting the property with the host whenever you can. If the manager is not available, remember to take video and pictures of the rental to record its condition.
• Did your family have a terrific time? Many rental home management companies make it easy for customers to provide comments. If your rental property and/or property manager was terrific, they would love to hear it. If anything was out of order and they failed to address it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make it a point as part of your comments.
