Strategies to get the very best New Bern vacation rental experience:

Getting the most from your rental budget:

• The sooner your group can book a vacation rental, the better your selection will be. The best vacation homes are booked early. Booking your vacation home 6-12 months before your vacation dates is recommended. Holidays such as Christmas and Thanksgiving are excellent times to plan and book your vacation rental.
• June, July, and August are the most expensive months in the New Bern area. To find the best value, consider changing your family's New Bern vacation week to the Spring or Fall seasons. May, September, and even October offer warm 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 on the coast? Thanksgiving and Christmas are great times to gather with family and friends at your favorite beach.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property owner if your group qualifies for a price reduction or discount.
• Property managers frequently offer customers an option to obtain vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which usually costs 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed time as a result of medical-related issues or weather, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance can be a a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for program terms and fees.
• Many management companies supply New Bern area travel guide magazines that include money-saving deals, either offered independently by local companies, or through a relationship between the rental management company and the business itself. You can also find New Bern area magazine and coupon books at local gas stations and shopping centers.

Filter your rental search:

• Choose your vacation week and spending budget.
• Decide how many bedrooms and what type of bedroom configuration your family needs. Surf Sounds Beach Retreat, Completely Renovated, Enter your Relaxation Zone. has 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Specific information regarding bedrooms and bed counts is almost always accessible on booking websites. If you don't see them listed, contact the property management company before you reserve your home. Remember that most property listings specify the max. guest capacity, which often includes pull out couches in living rooms.
• Some properties allow pets, and others don't. Allowable types of dog or cat, size and breeds may be restricted, and additional costs may apply. Ask the property manager about allowable pet guidelines before booking.
• Are you looking for unique amenities? Most websites include search filters for amenities.
• Suitable accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for those with limited mobility. Confirm all necessary amenities are included before reserving a rental.

More considerations for your visit:

• Take a copy of the owner's phone number and entry/exit procedures for your rental property. We recommend storing the host's information in your smartphone and wallet.
• Property managers are there to help! Don't be shy to ask questions during your stay.
• Ensure you protect the rental owner (and your things!) by keeping the rental locked up when you are away, just like you would at home.
• During check-in, make note of any damages to the rental property and immediately contact the owner. Record all coorespondence.
• Be respectful. Often, surrounding homes are filled by local residents. Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking regulations is the right thing to do.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Locals can usually help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to enjoy a steak with a view, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fine dining?
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before departing, take a walk through the rental property to make sure you've collected all personal belongings. Re-check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden treasure. Clean the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Did you have a fantastic vacation? Most rental management companies make it easy for clients to provide comments. If your rental property and/or host was wonderful, they would love to hear about it. If anything was defective and they failed to fix it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make it a point as part of your comments.
