Our top Rental home tips and tricks:

Finding the best value:

• To book the best rental home within budget, we recommend booking in Fall or Spring. You'll benefit from lower rates, better selection, warm weather and the absence of giant crowds at your favorite restaurants and activities. Many vacationers use this method to find larger homes within budget, or to reserve an oceanfront vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during June, July, and August.
• The earlier your group can book, the better your selection will be. The most desirable properties are booked early. Booking your vacation home up to twelve months before your vacation is recommended. Holidays such as Christmas and Thanksgiving are excellent times to plan and book your rental home.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective host if your vacationing group qualifies for a special promotion or discount.
• Management companies and individual rental owners often offer renters an option to buy trip insurance. Trip insurance, which costs between 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed vacation time as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance might be a a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for more information.
• Many management companies and vacation rental houses supply New Bern area visitors guide magazines which include special deals, either offered directly by local companies, or by way of a relationship with the management company and the business itself. You can also find New Bern visitors guide and coupon books at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers.

How to choose and book a perfect New Bern rental home:

• First and foremost, have your group choose dates and a max budget.
• Note the number bedrooms and the configuration you need. Dock Holiday! with Boat Dock & Pet Friendly has 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms.
• Precise information regarding bedrooms and bed types is commonly available online. If you don't see them listed, contact the property management company before you book your rental. Note that most property listings specify the max. guest capacity, which usually includes sofa beds. You will need to establish what configuration is right for your vacation group.
• If there's a particular New Bern attraction you crave, browse properties that are either near by, or those that cater to your requirements.
• Appropriate accessibility can make or break a vacation for guests that require the use of a wheelchair. Make certain to inquire about wheel chair entry, pool lifts and specialized equipment needs.
• If your group is traveling with pets, you'll need to find a pet-friendly property. Get details on breed, weight, and type restrictions. Some property owners require additional pet deposits and fees.

Tips for a great stay:

• Review arrival and departure procedures before leaving home. Save the instructions to your phone, and take a printed backup.
• To make sure that damages are not linked to your stay, record any problem areas upon check in. message the property manager right away to report any pre-existing damages. If there is a dispute, having a record of problems and contact attempts will be helpful.
• Hosts are there to help! Feel free to ask questions during your stay.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like disrespectful vacationers bothering your home life. Apply the golden rule for common sense. If they like you, locals might even recommend great local food and scenic spots you would've not otherwise known about!
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Locals can often help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to charter a fishing boat, have a great night out, or the best spots for shopping?
• Lock your vacation home while you're out and about. Protect your property!
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before departing, walk through the rental property to reconfirm you've collected everything. Make sure to check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden treasure. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Inspect the property one final time and keep an eye out for damages to contents or the property itself. We recommend inspecting the property with the property manager whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the manager is not available, take photos and video of the rental to record its condition at check-out.
• Remember to leave a review! Property owners rely on excellent feedback to stimulate new bookings. They'll be grateful for your review. Alternatively, if something went wrong, other vacationing families will be thankful you shared your experience find their best vacation home. Remember to be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the property manager had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded quickly to solve it.
