Tips and Tricks to get the best Emerald Isle vacation property experience:

Money saving strategies:

• In the New Bern area, The earlier you can reserve a vacation rental, the easier your search will be. The best properties are reserved early. Booking your vacation property 6-12 months before your travel dates is recommended. Holiday gatherings are excellent times to search for and reserve your rental property.
• Summer is the most expensive season in Emerald Isle. To get the best rental home within budget, we suggest reserving in the Spring or Fall. You'll enjoy lower rental rates, greater selection, warm weather and the absence of giant crowds at restaurants, beaches, and activities.
• Some hosts offer promotional rates for veterans. Remember to ask your host or property manager if discounts are available for your group.
• Property management companies typically offer renters an option to obtain vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which usually will cost 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed days as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional evacuation costs or charges, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance might be a a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for additional information.
• Often, rental management companies and vacation rental houses supply New Bern area travel guide magazines which will include coupons, either offered directly by local businesses, or through a relationship between the rental management company and the business itself. You can also find New Bern visitors guide magazine and coupon books at local gas stations and shopping centers.

How to pick the perfect rental in the New Bern area:

• To start, have your group select a vacation week and a spending budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and the configuration your group needs. Emerald Isle Family Escape: Walk to the Ocean has 5 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed types is usually available on booking pages. Otherwise, email the host before reserving your home. Remember that most properties list the max. guest capacity, which oftentimes includes sofa beds and bunks. You will need to establish which bed configuration is optimal for your vacation family.
• If your family is bringing pets, search for a property that allows animals. Request information on breed, size, and type restrictions. Be aware that some property managers charge pet deposits and fees.

• Appropriate accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for persons with disabilities. Confirm all required amenities are included before reserving a rental.

During your stay:

• We recommend storing the host's information in your smartphone.
• Property managers are great sources of help! Don't be shy to ask any questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Lock your rental while you are out and about. Protect the owner's property and your stuff!
• To make certain damages are not linked to your family's visit, inspect the rental for any problem areas during arrival. text the rental manager right away to document any pre-existing damages. If there is a dispute about who is responsible, having a record of concerns and contact attempts will be very helpful.
• Respect your neighbors. Frequently, surrounding homes are occupied by local residents. Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking regulations reduces conflict and allows everyone to enjoy their day.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Locals can typically point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to see a beautiful sunrise or sunset, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for crabbing?
• On check-out day, complete a walk-through to confirm you have not forget anything. Remember to check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden belongings. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Document the condition of the property at check-out. We recommend taking a video during your final walk-through.
• Did your group have a fantastic stay? Most rental websites make it easy for customers to provide reviews.

If anything was wrong and they failed to address it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make it a point as part of your feedback.
