Tricks and tips for getting the best New Bern vacation rental experience:

Finding your best deal:

• June, July, and August are high season in Emerald Isle. To get the largest rental for your budget, we recommend reserving in the Fall or Spring. You'll enjoy lower rental rates, better selection, gorgeous weather and the absence of large crowds at your favorite restaurants and activities.
• Reserve your vacation rental as early as possible. Rental schedules often become available twelve months in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many families reserve their Summer vacation rentals during Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years Eve get-togethers. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Some owners offer discounts or promotional rates for veterans and active duty military. Ask your host or property manager if special offers are available for your group.
• Property management companies often offer guests an option to buy trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which costs 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed days as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for more information.
• Find a copy of your local New Bern visitors guide when you arrive at the rental property. If your rental home doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers. In addition to great information, travel guide magazines have offers and deals for local attractions, tours, restaurants, and shops.

Filter your rental search:

• Choose a group leader, choose your dates, and choose a max budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and what type of bedroom configuration your family requires. “A Swell Life” 3 Bed/3 Bath, Oceanfront Condo, Unit 1105 Queens Court has 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our New Bern rental home search.
• Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is normally available on booking websites. If not, reach out to the property owner before booking the vacation property. Remember that most property listings specify the max. guest capacity, which often includes pull out couches in living rooms.
• If there's an individual New Bern destination you simply love, look for rentals that are either near by, or those that cater especially to your needs.
• Proper accessibility can make or break a vacation for those with limited mobility. Remember to confirm all necessary amenities are included before booking
• If your group is vacationing with pets, you'll need to search for a pet-friendly property. Get details on breed, size, and type restrictions. Be aware that some property owners charge pet deposits and fees.

Additional considerations:

• Get the property manager's phone number and entry/exit procedures for your rental.
• During check-in, note any damages to the property and immediately alert the property manager. Keep records of all correspondence just in case a dispute arises.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a fireplace, A/V setup or coffee maker. Contact your property manager. They are there to help! A brief telephone call can prevent many concerns.
• Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking policies can make a stay more pleasurable. You will magnify your chance to make local friends, and resident neighbors are often a fantastic source for finding the best local attractions.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Local residents can often point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to get the best breakfast in town, have a great night out, or the best spots for crabbing?
• Keep your rental home locked while you're away! Don't let burglars spoil your vacation.
• Double-check the vacation property to make sure that you've packed all of your belongings on check-out day. Check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden treasure. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Did your group have a terrific vacation? Most rental management companies make it easy for customers to provide comments. If your property and/or property management company was great, they would love to hear about it. If anything was amiss and they failed to correct it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make a note as part of your feedback.
