Tips to get the perfect Emerald Isle vacation property experience:

Sticking to a spending plan:

• In the New Bern area, The sooner you can reserve a vacation home, the easier your search will be. The best vacation homes are booked early. Reserving your rental property up to twelve months before your vacation is recommended. Christmas, Thanksgiving and New Years Eve are excellent times to search for and book your vacation rental.
• June, July, and August are high season in the New Bern area. To get the best value, change your group's trip dates to the Spring or Fall months. May, September, and even October offer excellent weather, fewer crowds, and greatly reduced traffic.
• Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property owner whether your family qualifies for a special rate.
• Management companies and individual rental owners usually offer customers an option to buy trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which generally will cost you between 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed vacation time as a result of medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as ensuing additional evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for specifics.
• Often, property management companies supply New Bern area travel guide magazines which will include money-saving offers, either offered independently by local businesses, or through a partnership between 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.

Planning, picking, and booking the rightvacation home:

• Start by selecting vacation dates and a maximum budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and the bed configuration your family requires. Great Escape West, Oceanfront Duplex in Emerald Isle, NC! has 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts is almost always available online. Otherwise, email or call the property manager before you book the vacation home. Note that most listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which frequently includes pull out couches in living rooms.
• Are you bringing the family pet? Many vacation homes allow animals, but guidelines and restrictions apply. Allowable pet type, breed, and size are often limited. Make sure to ask before booking, and study your agreement! Additional fees or charges may be applied to your contract.
• If there's an individual New Bern attraction you are enamored with, search for properties that are either close by, or those that cater to your requirements.
• Proper accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for those with limited mobility. Confirm all necessary amenities are available before reserving a rental.

Tips for a fantastic stay:

• We recommend storing the owner's contact information in your smartphone.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a fireplace, elevator or washer/dryer. Contact your property manager. They are there to help! A brief call prevents quite a few difficulties.
• Ensure you protect the owner (and your things!) by keeping the rental locked up while you are out, just like you would back home.
• To make certain that no damages are attributed to your family's stay, record any problem areas upon check in. Call the property manager immediately to report any damages. If there is a dispute about who is responsible, having a record of problems and contact attempts will be valuable.
• Respect the neighborhood. Often, nearby homes are occupied by permanent residents. Respecting noise limits and parking policies reduces conflict and allows everyone to enjoy their day.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Neighbors can usually help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to book the best tours, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for crabbing?
• Don't leave anything behind! Before departing, take a walk through the property to reconfirm you've collected everything. Remember to check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden items. Clean out the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Walk through the property a final time and keep an eye out for any damage. We advise walking through with the property manager whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the property manager is not available, take photographs of the property to record its condition.
• Did you have a wonderful vacation? Many rental home management companies make it easy for guests to provide comments. If your rental and/or host was wonderful, they will likely appreciate your kind words. If anything was inoperable and they failed to fix it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make a note as part of your review.
