Tips to get the perfect rental experience:

Finding your perfect rental:

• To book the largest rental home within budget, we strongly suggest booking in Fall or Spring months. You'll benefit from lower rates, greater selection, gorgeous weather and the absence of large crowds at popular New Bern attractions and restaurants. Many vacationers use this method to find larger homes within budget, or to book a beach front rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during the Summer months.
• Reserve your vacation rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules generally become available 12 months in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many groups book their Summer rentals during holiday gatherings. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Some owners offer rate reductions for veterans. Remember to ask your property manager if special discounts are available for your group before you book.
• Property management companies typically offer customers an option to add vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which costs 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed time as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for program terms and fees.
• Often, property management companies and vacation rental houses supply New Bern area travel guides which will include coupons, either offered independently by local businesses, or through a relationship between the management company and the business itself. You can also find visitors guide and coupon books at local shops and grocery stores.

Use filters to narrow your search:

• Begin by choosing the best vacation week and a max budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and what type of bedroom configuration your group requires. Blocks to the Beach! Huge Patio & Fenced-In Backyard. has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our vacation rental search.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is often available online. If you don't see them listed, call the property management company before reserving your home. Note that most listings specify maximum guest capacity, which frequently includes pull-out couches.
• Does your group require particular amenities? Most rental websites include amenity lists and search filters.
• Proper accessibility can make or break a vacation for persons with disabilities. Confirm all required amenities are available before reserving a rental.
• If your family is traveling with pets, you will need a pet-friendly vacation rental. Ask for information on breed, size, and type requirements. Note that some property managers charge additional pet fees.

More considerations for your visit:

• Be sure you get the owner's phone number and entry/exit procedures for your rental. We recommend storing the manager's contact information in your smartphone and wallet.
• Document any damages to the rental during check in, and immediately contact the property manager. We especially recommend e-mails and text messages, as they usually contain time stamps that can be useful if a dispute is filed.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a fireplace, elevator or coffee maker. Contact your host. They are there to help! A brief telephone call can prevent quite a few issues.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like loud visitors disrupting your peace and quiet. Employ the golden rule for common sense. Happy residents may even recommend great beaches and scenic spots you would've never otherwise known!
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Locals can often point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to launch your kayaks, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for bird watching?
• Keep the property locked while you're gone! Don't let burglars ruin your trip.
• Re-check the rental property to make sure that you've packed all belongings on check-out day. Check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden items. Clean the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Inspect the property one final time and scan for any damage. We suggest walking through with the property manager whenever possible. If the property manager is not available, remember to take video and pictures of the rental to record its condition.
• Did your family have a fantastic vacation? Most rental managers make it easy for guests to provide reviews. If your rental property and/or property management company was fantastic, they would love to hear about it. If anything was imperfect and they failed to fix it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make it a point as part of your comments.
