Tricks and tips to get the very best rental experience:

When to book & When to go:

• Summertime is high season in the New Bern area. To book the largest vacation home for your budget, we suggest booking in Spring or Fall. You'll benefit from lower rates, greater selection, warm weather and the absence of giant crowds at your favorite New Bern restaurants and activities. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, or to reserve an oceanfront vacation rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during the Summer.
• Book your vacation rental as early as possible. Rental schedules usually become available twelve months in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many groups reserve their Summer rentals during Thanksgiving and Christmas gatherings. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property owner or host if your family qualifies for a special promotion or discount.
• Property managers typically offer renters an option to buy vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which normally will cost anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed trip time as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance can be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for additional information.
• Many management companies supply New Bern area visitor guide magazines which will include coupons, either offered independently by local companies, or by way of a partnership between the rental management company and the business itself. You can also find New Bern visitors guide and coupon books at local shops and grocery stores.

Choosing and booking the perfect New Bern rental:

• First and foremost, have your family commit to dates and a spending budget.
• Decide how many beds and the configuration your family needs. Oceanfront Charm 2BR Cottage Perfect for a Cozy Coastal Escape has 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts is normally accessible on booking pages. If not, email the property management company before you reserve the property. Remember that most listings specify maximum guest capacity, which often includes sofa beds. You will need to establish what is optimal for your group.
• Visiting for a single attraction or event? If so, use a map search to browse nearby rentals.
• Suitable accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for persons with disabilities. Confirm all necessary amenities are available and included before reserving a rental
• Some rentals allow pets, and others don't. Allowable types of dog or cat, weight and breeds may be restricted, and added costs may apply. Ask your host about pets before booking.

Considerations for your stay:

• Review arrival and departure procedures before traveling. Add a note with the instructions to your phone, and take a printed copy.
• To ensure that no damages are linked to your family's stay, make a record of any problem areas upon check in. Get in touch with the host right away to relay any damages. If there is a dispute, having a record of issues and contact attempts will be very helpful.
• Property managers are available to help! Feel free to ask questions during your stay.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like disagreeable visitors bothering your peaceful home. Apply the golden rule for common sense. If they like you, locals might even recommend great restaurants and places you would have not otherwise known!
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Neighbors can typically point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to grab the best tacos, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for BBQ?
• Lock your rental home while you're out. Keep your property safe!
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before you drive away, take a walk through the rental to make sure you've collected all belongings. Re-check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden items. Clean out the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Go through the property a final time and scan for any damage. We suggest walking through with the host whenever you can. If the manager isn't available, ensure that you take video of the property to record its condition.
• Did your family have a great stay? Most rental websites make it easy for customers to provide reviews. If your property and/or host was fantastic, they always love to hear your praise. If anything was amiss and they failed to address it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make it a point as part of your comments.
