Our top Rental home tips and tricks:

How to get the best rental value:

• Reserve your vacation rental as early as possible. Rental schedules generally open twelve months in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many families reserve their Summer vacation rentals during holiday get-togethers. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• To get the best value, consider shifting your group's vacation week to the Spring or Fall shoulder seasons. May, September, and even October offer great weather, fewer crowds, and greatly reduced traffic. Many vacationers use this strategy to reserve larger homes, or to reserve an oceanfront rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during the Summer. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a New Bern vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation near the ocean? Christmas, Thanksgiving, and New Years Eve are great times to gather with loved ones at your favorite beach.
• Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property owner if your group qualifies for a price reduction.
• Management companies and individual rental owners usually offer customers an option to purchase vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which generally will cost you anywhere between 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed trip time as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for additional information.
• Often, property management companies and vacation rental houses supply New Bern area visitor guides that include money-saving offers, either offered independently by local companies, or by way of a relationship between the management company and the business itself. You can also find New Bern area magazine and coupon books at local shops and grocery stores.

Choosing and booking the perfect New Bern vacation home:

• Begin by choosing trip dates and a maximum budget.
• Determine how many beds and the configuration your family requires. Perfect Oceanfront Cottage With Private Pool: Sea Glass has 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms.
• Precise details about bedrooms and bed counts & types is almost always available online. If not, contact the property management company before reserving your rental. Note that most properties list the maximum guest capacity, which typically includes sofa beds and bunks.
• If your group is bringing pets, you will need a rental that allows animals. Ask for details on breed, weight, and type restrictions. Some property managers charge additional pet fees.
• Are you visiting for a single attraction? Use a map search to browse nearby rentals.
• Appropriate accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for guests that require the use of a wheelchair. Remember to confirm all required amenities are available before booking

During your stay:

• Review arrival and departure procedures before leaving home. Add a note with the instructions to your smartphone, and take a printed copy.
• Hosts are available to help! Don't be shy to ask questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Ensure you protect the rental owner (and your things!) by locking the rental while you are away, just like you would at home.
• At Check-in, document any damages to the rental property and immediately alert the host. Record all correspondence in case a dispute arises.
• Be a good neighbor. Frequently, adjacent homes are occupied by local residents. Respecting noise limits and parking policies can make a stay significantly more pleasurable.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Residents can frequently help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to get the best seafood, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fine dining?
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before you drive away, take a walk through the rental property to confirm you've collected all of your things. Make sure to check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden treasure. Clean out the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Inspect the property one final time and look for any damage. We suggest walking through with the property manager whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the manager isn't available, ensure that you take video and pictures of the rental to record its condition.
• Remember to leave a review! Hosts rely on excellent ratings to drive more reservations. They'll be grateful for your review. Alternatively, if something wasn't right, other families will be thankful you shared your review and help them have the best future vacation. Please be fair with your feedback If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the property manager had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded expeditiously to remedy it.
