How to get the best New Bern rental experience:

Find your perfect vacation home:

• Summertime is the most expensive season in coastal NC. To find the best value, consider changing your group's vacation to the Spring or Fall shoulder seasons. May, September, and October offer warmer weather, fewer crowds, and reduced traffic. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a New Bern vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation on the coast? Thanksgiving and Christmas are great times to gather with friends and family at the beach.
• Book your vacation home as early as possible. Rental schedules often open a year in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many groups book their Summer rentals during Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years Eve gatherings. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Some property management companies offer discounts or promotional rates for veterans and active duty military. Ask your property manager if special offers are available for your group.
• Property management companies typically offer customers an option to obtain trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which normally will cost anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed days as a result of medical-related issues or weather, as well as evacuation costs or charges, such as an unanticipated hotel or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for more information.
• Often, property management companies supply New Bern area visitors guide magazines which often include coupons, either offered independently by local businesses, or through a relationship with the property management company and the business itself. You can also find New Bern visitors guide magazine and coupon books at local shops and grocery stores.

Selecting and booking the rightrental home:

• First and foremost, have your group agree to a vacation week and a budget.
• Determine how many beds and the configuration you need. 4BR Ocean Front - DOG OK - Close to town! has 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms.
• Specific details about bedrooms and bed counts & types is commonly available on booking pages. If they are not listed, contact the property management company before you reserve the rental. Remember that most properties list the max. guest capacity, which typically includes pull-out couches.
• If there's a certain New Bern beach you crave, keep an eye out for properties that are either near by, or those that cater to your requirements.
• Suitable accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for guests with disabilities. Remember to confirm all required amenities are included before reserving a rental

• Review arrival and departure procedures before leaving home. Take a printed copy, and save the instructions to your phone.
• Note any issues with the property upon arrival, and immediately contact the owner. We specifically recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain time stamps that are helpful if there is a dispute.
• Hosts are there to help! Don't be shy to ask any questions during your stay.
• Be respectful of your neighbors. Often, surrounding homes are filled by permanent residents. Respecting late-night noise limits and parking policies reduces conflict and allows everyone to enjoy their day.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Neighbors can frequently point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to find the fresh catch of the day, have a great night out, or the best spots for fishing?
• Protect the property owner (and your things!) by locking the property while you are away, just like you would at home.
