The outdoor space spans the entire width of the unit, accepting access from the living room as well as a private entrance to the master bedroom. You will adore oceanfront vistas and hear the waves crashing on the shore from your huge private outdoor space or from the beach inspired open-concept living room and kitchen. From the outdoor space take a very brief walk (30 paces Matey!) along a wooden walkway to the beach. The pool is located next to the unit so you can watch your children play and call them in for dinner without ever leaving your back outdoor space.

After you gather for drinks at the gazebo watching the sunset, relax in the oceanfront master suite complete with it's own adjoining bathroom or in one of the other two bedrooms both with their own bathrooms. The condo also includes a sleeper couch ensuring everybody has sufficient space to spread out and accommodates 8 people restfully.

We also have a few beach chairs, umbrella, pool noodles, and floats for your comfort. So all you have to bring is your bathing suit!

New Bern vacation homes start booking early. To assure the greatest selection of rental homes, we suggest searching and reserving your New Bern rental 6-Twelve months in advance, whenever you can. Many groups prefer to start their search during Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Years Eve holiday gatherings.

Find your Area and Establish Dates

Pick a Size

How many relatives are planning to share your vacation? Remember that that a lot of rentals list maximum guest capacity, which often includes sofa beds in the living room. You'll need to figure out what is suitable for the group. Specific descriptions of bedrooms and beds are commonly accessible online. If not, contact the property owner before you reserve the home.

What Exactly Are You Willing to Shell out?

Does your preferred rental home fit your budget during that prime Summer week? If a few individuals or family members are sharing the cost, make sure each group knows their responsibilities and has agreed to a maximum they are willing to chip in. One individual in your party will need to be responsible for getting contributions and agreeing to responsibility for the whole rental payment at time of reservation.

Create a list of "Preferences" and "Necessities"

What amenities is your family trying to find? Is a screened deck a necessity? Are you more interested in a natural landscape or night life? Will the home have bicycles and beach toys available for use as part of your stay? Make a list of priority features to help filter your search.

Special Circumstances

Elderly family members will thank you for not reserving a stairs-access-only property on the 3rd floor. If wheel chair entry, elevators, pool lifts or other specialized devices are needed, include that into your search. The majority of vacation home listings will include a list of amenities.

Take the Dog

Make sure you include your pets. While quite a few vacation rentals allow canine companions, rules and fees fluctuate per rental. A number of constraints may possibly eliminate a potential rental home. Ensure that you study agreements and contracts carefully. Additional fees or deposits may be applied to your agreement.

Negotiate

Re-read the description to confirm the vacation rental has everything that you need. If something is missing, the home management company might know of comparable properties that better suit your style and budget..

While not true for all properties, many rental owners and property managers will negotiate rates. If they are hesitant to budge on a highly-desirable stay, try asking for an additional night. Your easiest potential for a reduced rate is shifting to a less desirable week.
