Beaufort vacation rental tips:

Getting the best rental value:

• Summer is high season in the New Bern area. Booking in Fall or Spring is an excellent way to save money on your rental home. Rental rates are lower, and you'll find a better selection of desirable properties. Many vacationers use this strategy to find larger homes within budget, or to reserve an oceanfront vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable during the Summer months.
• Reserve your rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules generally open twelve months in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many groups reserve their Summer rental homes during Christmas and Thanksgiving gatherings. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Some property managers offer promotional rates for veterans. Make sure to check with your host or property manager to see if special offers are available for your group before you book.
• Property managers often offer guests an option to buy vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which generally will cost you 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed time as a result of medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as ensuing additional evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel stay or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance can be a a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for details.
• Find a copy of your local New Bern visitors guide magazine when you arrive at the rental property. If your rental doesn't have one, you can find them at local grocery stores and visitor centers. In addition to great information, visitors guide magazines contain money saving offers on nearby accommodations and attractions.

Planning and picking a perfect New Bern vacation home:

• Start by selecting trip dates and a max budget.
• Decide how many beds and what type of bedroom configuration your family requires. ‘The Beaufort Flat’ Near Downtown & Waterfront! has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our vacation rental search.
• Precise details about bedrooms and bed types is normally available on booking websites. If they are not listed, reach out to the host before booking the vacation property. Remember that most properties list the max. guest capacity, which typically includes pull out couches in living rooms.
• Are you visiting for a specific event or attraction? Try a map search to find nearby properties.
• Suitable accessibility can make or break a vacation for those with limited mobility. Confirm all required amenities are available before reserving a rental.
• If your family is vacationing with pets, you will need a property that allows animals. Request details on breed, size, and type restrictions. Note that some property managers charge additional pet fees.

Advice for a great stay:

• Take a copy of the property manager's phone number and entry/exit procedures for your rental property. Put the manager's contact information in your smartphone.
• To make certain no damages are linked to your family's visit, inspect for any problem areas upon your arrival. Speak to the rental manager immediately to document any issues. If there is a dispute about who is responsible, having the recorded concerns and contact attempts will be helpful.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a garage door opener, intercom or thermostat. Contact your property manager. They are there to help! A brief call can prevent a lot of concerns.
• Don't forget to respect your neighbors. Often times, nearby homes are filled by local residents. Respecting late-night noise limits and parking rules reduces conflict and allows everyone to enjoy their day.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Neighbors can frequently help you find the best spots in town. 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're away! Don't let thieves ruin your family vacation.
• Just prior to departing, complete a final walk-through to confirm you have not forget any personal items. Re-check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden items. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Please make sure to walk through the property one final time and look for any damage. We suggest walking through with the property manager whenever possible. If the property manager is not available, take video of the property to record its condition at check-out.
• Did your group have a great stay? Many rental managers make it easy for vacationers to provide reviews. If your property and/or property manager was fantastic, they will likely appreciate your kind words. If anything was wrong and they failed to correct it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make it a point as part of your review.
