How to get the best Atlantic Beach vacation property experience:

Finding your best deal:

• Reserve your vacation home in the Fall or Spring shoulder seasons to enjoy gorgeous weather while saving money and avoiding crowds. Many vacationers use this strategy to find larger homes within budget, or to book a beach front rental that would otherwise be unavailable during the Summer.
• The sooner your group can book, the better your selection will be. The most desirable rental homes are booked early. Reserving your vacation rental up to 12 months before your vacation is recommended. Christmas, Thanksgiving and New Years Eve are excellent times to search for and book your rental home.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property owner or host if your family qualifies for a reduced rate.
• Property management companies frequently offer renters an option to add trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which generally costs between 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed days as a result of medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance can be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for program terms and fees.
• Many property management companies supply New Bern area visitors guide magazines which will include money-saving deals, either offered directly by local businesses, or through a relationship with the management company and the business itself. You can also find New Bern area 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 max budget.
• Note the number bedrooms and what type of bedroom configuration your family needs. DIRECT OCEANFRONT Duplex with large decks next to Oceanana Fishing Pier. has 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our New Bern rentals search.
• Specific details about bedrooms and bed types is regularly accessible on booking pages. If they are not listed, call the property management company before you book the property. Remember that most properties list the maximum guest capacity, which often includes pull-out couches.
• If there's a specific New Bern destination you crave, search for rentals that are either nearby, or those that cater to your desires.
• Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for persons with a disability. .
• If your group is bringing pets, you must reserve a pet-friendly property. Request information on breed, size, and type requirements. Often, hosts charge pet deposits and fees.

Know before you go:

• Review arrival and departure procedures before traveling. Take a printed copy, and save the directions to your smartphone.
• During arrival, document any issues with the property and immediately contact the host. Keep records of all coorespondence.
• Property managers are available to help! Feel free to ask questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like troublesome visitors disrupting your life at home. Use the golden rule for common sense. If they like you, locals might even recommend great local food and scenic spots you would've never otherwise known!
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Neighbors can typically help. Who better to ask where to find the best seashells, have a great night out, or the best spots for fishing?
• Lock your rental while you're out. Protect your property!
• Re-check every room of the rental property to make sure that you've packed all of your family's items at check-out. Check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden items. Clean the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Document the condition of the property at check-out. We recommend taking a video during your final walk-through.
• Remember to leave feedback! Property owners rely on good reviews to propel future bookings. They'll be much obliged for your feedback. Alternatively, if something went wrong, other vacationing families will appreciate that you share your experience and help them have the best future vacation. Remember to be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the manager could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded reasonably to remedy it.
