New Bern rental home tips:

Sticking to your budget:

• The earlier your group can reserve a vacation home, the better your selection will be. The most desirable vacation homes are booked early. Reserving your vacation home six to twelve months before your vacation dates is recommended. Holiday gatherings are excellent times to plan and reserve your rental home.
• June, July, and August are the most expensive months in the New Bern area. Booking a rental in Fall or Spring is a good way to save money on your rental home. Rental rates are lower, and you'll find a larger selection of suitable homes. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the 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 discounts for veterans. It's always a good idea to check with your host or property manager to see if discounts are available for your family before you book.
• Management companies and individual rental owners often offer customers an option to purchase trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which normally costs 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed vacation time as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for more information.
• Find a copy of your local New Bern area magazine upon arrival. If your rental home doesn't have one, you can find them at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers. In addition to great articles, visitor guide magazines have money saving offers on nearby accommodations, restaurants and tours.

Selecting the perfect rental home in Emerald Isle:

• First and foremost, have your group decide on the best dates and a spending budget.
• Decide how many bedrooms and what type of bedroom configuration you need. Just a Fluke - Ocean cottage 2nd row has 4 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Specific information regarding bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is generally accessible online. If they are not listed, reach out to the property owner before booking the home. Remember that most properties list maximum guest capacity, which often includes sofa beds. You'll need to establish which bed configuration is right for your group.
• Some properties allow pets, but others don't. Acceptable types of dog or cat, weight and breeds may be restricted, and added costs may apply. Ask the owner about your furry family members before booking.
• Are you visiting for a single event? If so, use a map search to browse nearby properties.
• Proper accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for persons with a disability. Confirm all required amenities are included before booking

More considerations for your visit:

• Review arrival and departure procedures before traveling. Add a note with the directions to your phone, and take a printed backup.
• Property managers are available to help! Feel free to ask questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Lock your vacation home while you're away. Keep your property safe!
• To ensure that damages are not linked to your visit, make a record of any problem areas upon check in. Get in touch with the rental manager right away to document any issues. If there is a dispute about legal responsibility later, having the recorded problems and contact attempts will be valuable.
• Be respectful of your neighbors. Often, adjacent homes are filled by local residents. Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking policies reduces conflict and allows everyone to enjoy their day.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Locals can usually help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to take kids for a treat, have a great night out, or the best spots for bird watching?
• Double-check the property to confirm that you've packed all of your belongings at check-out. Check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden belongings. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Inspect the rental a final time and keep an eye out for any damage. We recommend inspecting the property with the host whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the property manager isn't available, take photos of the rental to record its condition at check-out.
• Leave a review! Property managers rely on excellent reviews to drive new bookings. They'll be much obliged for your feedback. Alternatively, if something went wrong, other vacationing families will be thankful you shared your experience find their best vacation rental. Be fair with your review. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the host could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded quickly to remedy it.
