How to find the best New Bern vacation rental experience:

Getting the best value:

• June, July, and August are the most expensive months in Emerald Isle. To find the best value, shift your vacation to the Spring or Fall months. May, September, and October offer great weather, less crowded beaches, and reduced traffic. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a New Bern vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday on the coast? Thanksgiving and Christmas are great times to gather with friends and family at your favorite beach.
• Reserve your vacation home as early as possible. Rental schedules often open twelve months in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many families reserve their Summer vacations during Winter holiday get-togethers. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property owner whether your vacationing group qualifies for a price reduction or discount.
• Property management companies typically offer guests an option to purchase vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which usually will cost anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed trip time as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for additional information.
• Many rental management companies supply New Bern area visitors guide magazines which will include money-saving offers, either offered directly by local companies, or through a partnership between the management company and the business itself. You can also find visitors guide and coupon books at local shops and grocery stores.

• First and foremost, have your family decide on the best dates and a max budget.
• Decide how many bedrooms and the configuration your family needs. Oceanfront stunner in Emerald Isle has 5 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms.
• Precise details about bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is almost always accessible on booking pages. If not, email or call the property owner before you reserve the home. Remember that most properties list the maximum guest capacity, which frequently includes sofa beds.
• If there's a certain New Bern beach you crave, search for properties that are either close by, or those that cater especially to your needs.
• Proper accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for guests that require the use of a wheelchair. Make certain to ask about wheel chair accessibility, pool lifts and specialized equipment needs.

Make sure to ask before booking, and study your agreement thoroughly! Pet fees or could be applied to your agreement.
