Finding the best vacation home experience:

Sticking to a budget:

• Booking in the Spring or Fall is our best tip for saving money on your rental home. Rental rates are lower, and you'll find a better selection of acceptable homes. Many vacationers use this method to find larger homes within budget, or to reserve an oceanfront vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable during the high season. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a New Bern vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation near the ocean? Thanksgiving and Christmas are great times to gather with friends and family at the beach.
• Book your rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules usually become available twelve months in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many families reserve their Summer vacations during Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years Eve get-togethers. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Some hosts and property managers offer discounts for veterans. Ask your host or property manager if special discounts are available for your group.
• Management companies and individual rental owners usually offer renters an option to add vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which generally costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed days as a result of medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance can be a a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for specifics.
• Often, rental management companies supply New Bern area visitors guide magazines which often include coupons, either offered independently by local businesses, or by way of a relationship with the rental management company and the business itself. You can also find New Bern visitors guide and coupon books at local gas stations and shopping centers.

Filter your rental search:

• Start by having your group select a vacation week and a max budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and what type of bedroom configuration you need. Beacon's Reach Oceanfront 4BD\/4.5BA w\/elevator. Hot Tub, Pools & Tennis Courts has 4 bedrooms and 6 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our New Bern rentals search.
• Precise information about bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is regularly available online. If they are not listed, call the property owner before you reserve the vacation home. Remember that most listings specify maximum guest capacity, which often includes sofa beds. You will need to work out what is optimal for your vacation.
• Visiting for a single event or attraction? If so, use a map search to locate nearby rentals.
• Proper accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for persons with a disability. .
• Traveling with pets? Although a number of vacation homes allow pets or animals, guidelines and costs vary per property. Allowable pet type, breed, and size are often limited. Make sure to ask before booking, and study your agreement! Extra fees or may be applied to your contract.

Additional considerations:

• Review arrival and departure procedures before traveling. Take a printed copy, and add a note with the instructions to your phone.
• Document any issues with the rental during check in, and immediately send them to the property manager. We specifically recommend e-mails and text messages, as they usually contain time stamps that can be helpful if damages are assessed.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a garage door opener, stereo or coffee maker. Contact your host. They are there to help! A brief phone call can prevent many difficulties.
• Respecting quiet hours and parking restrictions can make a stay significantly more pleasurable. Be a good neighbor. You'll enhance your chance to make some new local friends, and resident neighbors can be a fantastic resource to find the best local beaches and restaurants.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Local residents can often help. Who better to ask where to find the best seashells, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fishing?
• Lock your rental while you are out and about. Protect your property!
• Just before checking out, take a walk-through to make sure you did not forget anything. Re-check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden treasure. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Go through the rental a final time and keep an eye out for damage. We recommend inspecting the property with the property manager whenever possible. If the manager isn't available, take pictures of the rental to record its condition at check-out.
• Did you have a fantastic stay? Most rental home management companies make it easy for travelers to provide reviews. If your rental property and/or host was wonderful, they will likely appreciate your kind words. If anything was wrong and they failed to correct it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make a note as part of your feedback.
