Tips to get the perfect vacation home experience:

How to get the best rental home value:

• Booking your vacation rental in the Fall or Spring shoulder seasons is an excellent way to save money on your vacation home. Rates are lower, and you'll find a better selection of desirable properties. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, or to book a beach front vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable during the high season.
• Reserve your vacation rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules often open 12 months in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many groups book their Summer vacation rentals during Thanksgiving and Christmas gatherings. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Some property managers offer discounts or promotional rates for veterans and active duty military. Check with your property manager to see if discounts are available for your group.
• Property managers typically offer their guests an option to buy vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed trip time as a result of medical-related issues or weather, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance can be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for details.
• Look for your local New Bern visitors guide upon arrival. If your rental home doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers. In addition to great local articles, travel guide magazines have money saving offers on nearby tours, shops, and attractions.

Narrow your Search:

• Start by having your group choose dates and a budget.
• Determine how many beds and the bed configuration your family requires. One Mile from Downtown! has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our New Bern rental home search.
• Specific information regarding bedrooms and bed types is almost always accessible on booking pages. If they are not listed, reach out to the property management company before booking the vacation home. Note that most property listings specify maximum guest capacity, which usually includes pull out couches in living rooms.
• Are you looking for particular amenities? Most rental websites include search filters with amenity lists.
• Suitable accessibility can make or break a vacation for persons with a disability. .
• If your family is vacationing with pets, you will need a property that allows animals. Get specifics on breed, weight, and type requirements. Usually, hosts charge pet deposits and fees.

• Add the owner's contact information to your smartphone. Take a copy of arrival/departure procedures.
• To ensure that no damages are linked to your family's stay, inspect for any problem areas upon check in. text the host right away to document any damages. If there is a dispute about who is responsible, having a record of concerns and contact attempts will be helpful.

• Respecting quiet hours and parking rules can make a stay more pleasurable. You will increase your chance to make local friends, and resident neighbors can be a fantastic resource to find the best local scenic spots.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Locals can often help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to rent beach equipment, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for shopping?
• Lock your rental while you are out and about. Protect the owner's property and your stuff!
• Just before checking out, take a walk-through to make sure you have not leave anything behind. Make sure to check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden belongings. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Did your group have a great vacation? Most rental websites make it easy for vacationers to provide comments. If your rental property and/or host was wonderful, they would love to hear it. If anything was wrong and they failed to fix it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make it a point as part of your comments.
