Tips and Tricks to get the perfect New Bern vacation rental experience:

Cost saving strategies:

• June, July, and August are high season in the New Bern area. To find the best value, try changing your group's trip dates to the Spring or Fall seasons. May, September, and even October offer excellent temperatures, , and reduced traffic. Many vacationers use this strategy to find larger homes within budget, or to reserve an oceanfront vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable during June, July, and August.
• Reserve your vacation rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules usually become available a year in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many groups book their Summer vacations during Christmas and Thanksgiving get-togethers. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property manager if your vacationing group qualifies for a discount.
• Management companies and individual rental owners often offer renters an option to purchase vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which normally costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed trip time as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for details.
• Find a copy of your local New Bern visitors guide magazine upon checking in. If your rental property doesn't have one, you can find them at local shops and visitor centers. In addition to great articles, visitors guide magazines contain money saving offers on nearby tours and attractions.

Choosing and booking the right New Bern rental:

• Select your vacation week and maximum budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and the configuration your family needs. Mystic Pelican on The Canal. Dock. Beach. Dog Friendly. has 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms.
• Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is usually accessible online. Otherwise, reach out to the property owner before you book the home. Note that most listings specify maximum guest capacity, which frequently includes pull out couches in living rooms.
• If there's a particular New Bern attraction you long to visit, browse properties that are either close by, or those that cater to your requirements.
• Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for persons with a disability. Make certain to ask about specialized equipment and wheel chair accessibility.
• Some properties allow pets, but others do not. Allowable types of dog or cat, size and breeds may be restricted, and additional charges may apply. Ask the property manager about your furry family members before booking.

Additional considerations:

• Add the host's information to your smartphone. Take a copy of arrival/departure procedures.
• Upon arrival, make note of any issues with the property and immediately alert the property manager. Keep records of all coorespondence.
• Hosts are there to help! Feel free to ask questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like unpleasant vacationers bothering your peaceful neighborhood. Use the golden rule for common sense. Happy residents may even recommend great local food and scenic spots you would have not otherwise known about!
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Local residents can often help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to find the best seashells, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for crabbing?
• Keep the property locked while you are gone! Don't let burglars ruin your vacation.
• Re-check the vacation property to make sure that you've packed all belongings at departure. Check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden treasure. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Go through the rental one final time and scan for damage. We suggest walking through with the host whenever possible. If the property manager is not available, remember to take pictures of the rental to record its condition.
• Did you have a fantastic stay? Many rental home management companies make it easy for vacationers to provide comments. If your rental and/or host was great, they would love to hear it. If anything was inoperable and they failed to fix it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make it a point as part of your comments.
