Tips to get the perfect vacation rental experience:

Find your perfect rental:

• To find the best value, consider changing your trip dates to the Spring or Fall months. May, September, and October offer pleasant temperatures, less crowded beaches, and reduced traffic. Many vacationers use this method to find larger homes within budget, or to reserve an oceanfront vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during the Summer.
• Reserve your rental as early as possible. Rental schedules generally open a year in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many groups reserve their Summer vacations during holiday get-togethers. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property owner whether your vacationing group qualifies for a price reduction or discount.
• Management companies and individual rental owners usually offer customers an option to obtain vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which costs 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed time as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance can be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for specifics.
• Many rental management companies and vacation rental houses supply New Bern area visitor guide magazines which will include special offers, either offered directly by local companies, or through a relationship between the property management company and the business itself. You can also find New Bern area magazine and coupon books at local shops and grocery stores.

Finding the best vacation rental:

• Begin by choosing trip dates and a max budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and the bed configuration your family requires. Ocean view beach house, family and pet-friendly has 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms.
• Precise information regarding bedrooms and bed counts & types is usually available online. If you don't see them listed, call the property owner before reserving the rental. Remember that most properties list the max. guest capacity, which frequently includes pull-out couches. You'll need to work out what bed configuration is suitable for your vacation family.
• If there's a certain New Bern destination you are enamored with, look for homes that are either near by, or those that cater to your needs.
• Suitable accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for persons with a disability. Confirm all necessary amenities are available before booking.
• If your family is bringing pets, you must book a pet-friendly property. Get information on breed, size, and type requirements. Often, hosts require additional pet deposits and fees.

More tips for your stay:

• Add the host's information to your smartphone. Print and take a copy of check in/check out procedures.
• At Check-in, make note of any issues with the property and immediately alert the host. Keep records of all coorespondence.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a hot tub, intercom or appliance. Contact your host. They are there to help! A brief phone call prevents a lot of difficulties.
• Be respectful of your neighbors. Often, surrounding homes are filled by permanent residents. Respecting noise limits and parking regulations reduces conflict and allows everyone to enjoy their day.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Neighbors can often help. Who better to ask where to launch your kayaks, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fine dining?
• Ensure you protect the rental owner (and your things!) by locking and securing the home while you are gone, just like you would back home.
• When it's time to leave, complete a final walk-through to confirm you haven't forget anything. Re-check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden items. Clean out the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Inspect the rental a final time and scan for any damage. We suggest walking through with the property manager whenever possible. If the property manager is not available, ensure that you take pictures of the rental to record its condition.
• Leave feedback! Hosts rely on great reviews to compel more bookings. They'll be grateful for your feedback. Alternatively, if something wasn't as described, other vacationing families will appreciate that you share your feedback find their best vacation rental. Be fair with your review. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the owner could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded reasonably to fix it.
