Tips to get the best New Bern vacation home experience:

How to get the best value:

• Summer months are the most expensive season in Atlantic Beach. To get the best value, try shifting your family's New Bern trip dates to the Spring or Fall months. May, September, and even October offer warmer temperatures, fewer crowds, and reduced traffic. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a New Bern vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday on the coast? Thanksgiving and Christmas are great times to gather with friends and family at the beach.
• In the New Bern area, The sooner you can book a rental home, the easier your search will be. The best rental properties are booked early. Booking your rental home up to twelve months before your vacation is recommended. Christmas, Thanksgiving and New Years Eve are excellent times to search for and reserve your rental property.
• Property managers sometimes offer discounts for veterans. Remember to ask your property manager if special offers are available for your family before you book.
• Property management companies usually offer their guests an option to purchase vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which will generally cost 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed trip time as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel stay or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance can be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for program terms and fees.
• Many property management companies and vacation rental houses supply New Bern area visitors guides which will include special deals, either offered directly by local companies, or by way of a relationship between the property management company and the business itself. You can also find visitors guide and coupon books at local gas stations and shopping centers.

Selecting the perfect rental home:

• Start by choosing trip dates and a maximum budget.
• Decide how many beds and what type of bedroom configuration your group needs. Beach Dreams Oceanfront Paradise! Steps to the Ocean! has 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts & types is commonly accessible on booking pages. If they are not listed, call the property management company before reserving your rental. Remember that most properties list maximum guest capacity, which usually includes pull-out couches.

Have a great stay:

• We recommend storing the host's contact information in your smartphone and wallet.
• To make sure damages are not attributed to your family's stay, inspect the property for any problem areas upon check in. E-mail the host immediately to record any issues. If there is a dispute about who is responsible, having a record of concerns and contact attempts will be very helpful.

• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like disrespectful vacationers bothering your home life. Apply the golden rule for common sense. If they like you, locals might even recommend great local food and places you would have not otherwise known!
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Neighbors can typically help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to order the best nachos, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for bird watching?
• Keep your rental home locked while you are out! Don't let burglars spoil your trip.
• Just prior to departing, take a walk-through to confirm you didn't forget anything. Re-check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden items. Clean out the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Remember to leave a review! Property owners rely on excellent reviews to inspire new bookings. They'll be thankful for your review. Alternatively, if something went wrong, other vacationers will will be grateful for your feedback and help them have the best future vacation. Please be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the host could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded expeditiously to remedy it.
