Tricks and tips to get the perfect rental experience:

Finding your perfect rental home:

• Reserve your vacation home as soon as possible. Rental schedules generally become available a year in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many groups book their Summer rentals during Winter holiday gatherings. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Summer months are high season in the New Bern area. To find the best value, try shifting your vacation to the Spring or Fall shoulder seasons. May, September, and even October offer excellent weather, fewer crowds, and reduced traffic. Many vacationers use this strategy to find larger homes within budget, or to reserve a beach front vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable during the Summer months. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a New Bern vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday on the coast? Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with family and friends at the beach.
• Some property managers offer promotional rates for active duty military and veterans. Ask your host or property manager if special offers are available for your group before you book.
• Property managers typically offer their guests an option to add vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which commonly will cost anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for days missed as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel stay or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance might be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for specifics.
• Many management companies and vacation rental houses supply New Bern area visitor guide magazines that include money-saving offers, either offered directly by local companies, or by way of a relationship with the property management company and the business itself. You can also find New Bern visitors guide magazine and coupon books at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers.

Use filters to narrow your rental search:

• Start by selecting your the best vacation week and a spending budget.
• Decide how many beds and the configuration your group requires. Classic beach house right on the ocean. has 5 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our New Bern rentals search.
• Precise information regarding bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is regularly accessible online. If they are not listed, reach out to the host before booking the home. Note that most listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which often includes sofa beds. You will need to work out what configuration is optimal for your family.
• If your family is bringing pets, you will need a property that allows animals. Ask for details on breed, weight, and type restrictions. Be aware that some hosts charge additional pet fees.
• Are you visiting for a single attraction? Use a map search to browse nearby properties.
• Proper accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for guests with disabilities. Confirm all required amenities are included before reserving a rental.

Additional considerations:

• Get the host's contact number and arrival/departure procedures for your rental home.
• Property managers are available to help! Don't be shy to ask questions during your stay.
• Lock your rental while you are away. Protect the owner's property and your things!
• To make certain that damages aren't attributed to your stay, inspect for any problem areas during arrival. Get in touch with the property manager immediately to record any pre-existing damages. If there is a dispute, having the recorded issues and contact attempts will be very helpful.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like disagreeable visitors disrupting your peaceful neighborhood. Employ the golden rule for best judgement. Happy residents may even recommend great restaurants and attractions you would have not otherwise known!
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Residents can frequently help. Who better to ask where to order the best nachos, have a great night out, or the best spots for shopping?
• When it's time to leave, complete a final walk-through to make sure you did not forget any personal items. Make sure to check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden belongings. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Walk through the property one final time and look for any damage. We advise inspecting the property with the host whenever possible. If the host is not available, ensure that you take photos of the property to record its condition.
• Did your family have a fantastic vacation? Many rental home management companies make it easy for vacationers to provide reviews. If your rental property and/or property manager was terrific, they would love to hear about it. If anything was inoperable and they failed to correct it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make a note as part of your comments.
