Strategies to get the perfect New Bern vacation home experience:

Get the most from your spending budget:

• June, July, and August are the most expensive months along the coast of NC. Book your vacation in the Fall or Spring to enjoy warm weather while saving money and avoiding crowds.
• Book your vacation rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules usually become available 12 months in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many groups reserve their Summer vacations during Thanksgiving and Christmas get-togethers. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Hosts sometimes offer promotional rates for active duty military and veterans. It's always a good idea to check with your host or property manager to see if rate reductions are available for your group.
• Property management companies usually offer their guests an option to buy vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which normally costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed trip time as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance might be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for more information.
• Many management companies and vacation rental houses supply New Bern area visitor guide magazines which often include money-saving offers, either offered independently 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 gas stations and shopping centers.

Choosing and booking the right New Bern vacation home:

• Select a designated group leader, select your dates, and select a max budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and the bed configuration your family needs. Quaint ground floor guest house in historic Beaufort, NC. has 1 bedrooms and 1 bathrooms.
• Precise information regarding bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is normally accessible on booking pages. If they are not listed, contact the host before reserving the property. Remember that most listings specify maximum guest capacity, which typically includes sofa beds.
• Are you visiting for a single event? Use a map search to locate nearby properties.
• Proper accessibility can make or break a vacation for guests that require the use of a wheelchair. .
• Some rentals allow pets, and others don't. Allowable types of pet, weight and breeds may be restricted, and additional fees may apply. Ask the host about pets before booking.

Know before you go:

• Get the host's phone number and arrival/departure procedures for your rental. We recommend storing the manager's contact information in your smartphone.
• Make a record of any issues with the rental upon arrival, and immediately send them to the owner. We especially recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain time stamps that are useful if there is a dispute.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a fireplace, stereo or washer/dryer. Contact your owner. They are there to help! A brief phone call can prevent a lot of issues.
• Respecting quiet hours and parking restrictions can make a stay significantly more pleasurable. Be a good neighbor. You will enhance your chance to make local friends, and resident neighbors are usually a terrific source for finding the best local beaches and restaurants.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Local residents can often point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to find the best seashells, have a great night out, or the best spots for crabbing?
• Lock your vacation home while you're out. Protect the owner's property and your stuff!
• Re-check every room of the vacation property to make sure that you've packed everything at check-out. Check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden items. Clean the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Did your family have a terrific stay? Most rental websites make it easy for customers to provide comments. If your rental and/or host was wonderful, they would love to hear it. If anything was imperfect and they failed to fix it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make it a point as part of your comments.
