Searching for and booking the right rental:

Before you start to book "Nautical Getaway: 3 BR / 2 BA house in Beaufort, Sleeps 6", go through our short collection of issues to consider.

The Sooner, The Better

New Bern rentals book months (and up to a year) in advance. Reserving your rental home 6-12 months before your travel dates is usually recommended, whenever possible. Christmas, Thanksgiving and New Years are excellent times to find and reserve your rental home..

Find your Area and Decide Dates

Consensus can often be complicated between family members, but once this complicated part is complete everything will start to slide in place.

How Much Rental home Do You Really Need?

Take a head count. How many beds and bedrooms will you need? Remember that most rentals advertise maximum guest capacity, which usually includes sofa beds in the living area. You will need to determine what is most appropriate for your family. Precise descriptions of bedrooms and beds are commonly available online. Otherwise, contact the property owner before you reserve the home.

Stick to a Budget

Most rental homes are advertised with a cost range. Determine the rate for your preferred week. It may be at the high end of the range. If a few individuals or loved ones are sharing the cost, confirm that everyone understands their obligations and has agreed to a maximum they are prepared to contribute. Typically, a single member of the group will be liable for making the whole reservation and recovering each family member's share.

Create a list of "Preferences" and "Requirements"

What property features is your group trying to find? Is a screened deck a requirement? Do you want to be far from the crowds, or close to a city setting? Are items like beach chairs, grills, beach umbrellas, carts or coolers available and included in your rental property rate? Make a list of prioritized "necessities and preferences" from your group to help filter your search to the perfect home.

Special Considerations

Adequate access can make or ruin a trip for the less-mobile. Ensure that you remember and inquire about wheelchair entry, pool lifts and special equipment requirements..

Think About 4-Legged Family Members?

Are you or other people in the crew traveling with a furry companion? Animals are welcome at a number of rental homes, but policies differ. A number of constraints may dismiss a prospective rental. Be sure to study descriptions and contracts carefully. Extra fees or deposits may be applied to your agreement. When in doubt, ask the property manager and get it in writing.

Start your Search

Once the area, travel dates and people are decided, search multiple sources to find the best rental home selection. In combination with Homeaway, VRBO and Tripadvisor, we recommend searching Google for "New Bern local rental properties" for local rental management companies. Apart from offering exclusive properties, local agencies offer outstanding service..

Negotiate

Re-read the description to be certain the vacation home has everything that you need. If it is lacking, the vacation rental management company may know of very similar properties that better suit your style and budget..

Some rental home owners will negotiate prices, and some will not. If the rate isn't negotiable, the number of nights might be. Negotiating rates is more effective throughout the off-peak season when many rentals sit empty.

Study the Agreement

During your Stay

• Record the overall condition of the rental unit right away. We also advise promptly phoning the rental home manager with a report of any damages, together with your request for any required repairs. If there is a disagreement about legal liability later, having the documented problems and communication attempts should be incredibly helpful.
• Ask questions. If there is any ambiguity about parking, policies of the property, house access, pool operation, etc... we recommend you ask the property manager immediately. A phone call can save hours of trouble.
• Be considerate of the neighborhood. More often than not, adjacent households are lived in by permanent residents. Respecting late-night quiet hours and vehicle parking restrictions can make a stay substantially more relaxing.
• Ask a local. Local people are a great source of recommendations. Who better to ask where to order the best chicken wings, have a great date night, or the best spots for wildlife?
• Make sure that you protect the property owner (and your stuff!) by keeping the rental locked up when you are away, just like you would in your own home.

When its Time to Leave

• Check to make sure you've packed everything. Examine drawers, bath cupboards and wardrobes.
• Make a point to walk through the rental home one last time and check for damage. If at all possible, do this walk-out inspection with the property manager present. If the property owner is not available, be sure to take photos of the property to record its condition.
• How would you feel about your stay? Nearly all rental home sites request testimonials after your stay . Rental owners and property managers will appreciate your favorable critiques. If anything was disagreeable and they didn't correct it in a practical manner, or if the rental home was not as described, you will want to make it a point as part of your critique.
