First-timers tend to be shocked at the number and variety of weekly rentals available in the New Bern area. With such a big selection, vacationers are sure to come across a rental home that fits their wishes and spending plan.

Virtually all rental properties in New Bern are privately operated and many are represented by well-known local rental management companies.

Search Early and Frequently

New Bern rentals start booking early. For the best selection, start your planning and search Six-12 months before a trip. A lot of groups plan to begin their search during Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Year gatherings.

Choose a Community and Date

Oftentimes, the toughest part of scheduling your vacation is deciding where to go, and when. After the big decisions are hammered out, the rest will be simpler.

Bedrooms and Bed Sizes Matter

Establish who is traveling, and how many/what sort of bedroom arrangement you'll need. Consider that many rental homes advertise maximum guest capacity, which oftentimes includes sofa beds in the home's living room. It is important to figure out what is suitable for the group. Precise descriptions of bedrooms and beds are usually accessible online. Otherwise, communicate with the property manager before you book.

Create a Spending Limit

The majority of rental homes are advertised with a cost range. Confirm the price for your preferred week. It could be at the high end of the range. If several groups or family members are sharing the cost, always make sure that each person understands their obligations and has agreed to a maximum they are willing to chip in. A single member of your family must be in charge of gathering contributions and acknowledging responsibility for the entire rental price at time of booking.

Vacation home Amenities

What home features is your family looking for? Do you only want a vacation home with a swimming pool, hot tub or beach volleyball court? Do you want to be away from it all, or near civilization? Are items like beach chairs, gas grills, beach umbrellas, beach carts or coolers at your disposal and included with your rental fee? Gather a list of prioritized "necessities and preferences" from your group to help narrow your search to the perfect property.

Accessability

Grandparents will appreciate you for not reserving a stairs-access-only condominium on the Third floor. Make sure you remember and inquire about wheelchair entry, pool lifts and special equipment requirements..

Paws-Friendly, Please

Be sure to include your companion! Animal guidelines are different at each property. Study descriptions thoroughly. Many constraints could eliminate a prospective rental. Be sure to study descriptions and contracts carefully. Additional charges may apply when animals are added. If in doubt, ask the property manager and get it in writing.

During your Stay

• Take pictures on your arrival. Record the overall condition of the rental home immediately upon arrival. If you find property damage, or if fixes are required call the property manager without delay. If there is a disagreement about legal liability later, having the documented problems and communication attempts will probably be helpful.
• When there is any ambiguity about vehicle parking, policies of the property, property access, swimming pool operation, etc... we suggest you ask the rental manager immediately. A phone call can save several hours of hassle.
• Don't forget to respect your nearby neighbors. Often times, surrounding residences are lived in by permanent locals. Respecting late-night quiet hours and vehicle parking regulations can make a vacation substantially more relaxing.
• Ask a local. Residents are a great source of recommendations. Who better to ask where to get the best nachos, have a great night out, or the best areas for night life?
• Enjoy your stay! Be sure to protect the owner (and your things!) by keeping the rental home locked up while you are away, exactly like you would at home.

At the end of your stay

• Be certain that you've packed everything. Examine drawers, bath cabinets and wardrobes.
• As soon as everything is out, begin a walk-through of the property to make sure no property damage occurred during your remain. If possible, do this walk-out inspection with the property manager present. If the property owner is not available, you'll want to take photos of the property to record its condition.
• How would you feel about your stay? Most rental management company web sites seek feedback after your stay . Rental owners and property managers will appreciate your positive ratings. If something was unacceptable and they failed to fix it in a acceptable manner, or when the rental was not as described, you'll want to make it a point as part of your feedback.

Learn and Improve

Did everyone have a blast? Ideally everything was fantastic and you are ready to reserve the property for next year. If the rental home was not perfect, and you will better recognize how to improve your search for the next time.
