Tricks and tips for getting the best rental home experience:

Find your perfect rental:

• Summer months are the most expensive season along the coast of NC. To find the best value, change your family's New Bern vacation to the Spring or Fall months. May, September, and October offer excellent temperatures, fewer crowds, and reduced traffic. Many vacationers use this method to find larger homes within budget, or to reserve an oceanfront vacation rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during the Summer months.
• The sooner you can reserve a vacation home, the easier your search will be. The most desirable properties are reserved early. Reserving your rental home up to 12 months before your travel dates is recommended. Christmas, Thanksgiving and New Years Eve are excellent times to search for and book your rental property.
• Hosts sometimes offer discounts for active duty military and veterans. It's always a good idea to check with your host or property manager to see if special offers are available for your group.
• Management companies and individual rental owners often offer their guests an option to buy vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed trip time as a result of medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as evacuation costs or charges, such as an unanticipated hotel or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance can be a a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for specifics.
• Look for your local New Bern visitors guide upon checking in. If your rental home doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local shops and fuel stations. In addition to great information, visitor guides contain offers and deals for nearby accommodations and attractions.

Narrow your Search:

• First and foremost, have your family choose trip dates and a budget.
• Determine how many beds and the bed configuration your group needs. Spectacular Direct Oceanfront 2BR Condo in Emerald Isle NC Ocean Reef 7B1 has 2 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms.
• Precise information about bedrooms and bed counts & types is usually available on booking pages. If you don't see them listed, email or call the host before you reserve the vacation property. Remember that most property listings specify the max. guest capacity, which oftentimes includes pull-out couches. You'll need to determine what bed configuration is suitable for your vacation group.
• Visiting for a single event or attraction? Try a map search to browse nearby rentals.
• Proper accessibility can make or break a vacation for persons with disabilities. Confirm all required amenities are available before reserving a rental
• Some properties allow pets, but others don't. Allowable types of dog or cat, size and breeds may be restricted, and added fees may apply. Ask the owner about pets before booking.

More considerations for your visit:

• Get the host's phone number and entry/exit procedures for your rental property. Put the host's information in your smartphone.
• To make certain damages aren't linked to your family's visit, inspect the property for any problem areas upon your arrival. Make contact with the property manager right away to report your findings. If there is a dispute about legal responsibility later, having a record of concerns and contact attempts will be valuable.
• Property managers are available to help! Feel free to ask any questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Be respectful of your neighbors. Frequently, nearby homes are occupied by local residents. Respecting late-night noise limits and parking policies can make a stay significantly more pleasurable.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Local residents can frequently help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to find the best seashells, have a great night out, or the best spots for BBQ?
• Ensure you protect the rental owner (and your stuff!) by keeping the rental locked up while you are out, just like you would at home.
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before departing, walk through the property to confirm you've collected all belongings. Re-check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden belongings. Clean the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Remember to leave feedback! Hosts rely on great ratings to stimulate more reservations. They'll be thankful for your feedback. Alternatively, if something went wrong, other vacationers will will be grateful for your review and help them have the best future vacation. Remember to be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the host had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded quickly to solve it.
