Emerald Isle rental home booking tips:

When to book & When to go:

• To find the most suitable rental home within your budget, we suggest reserving in Spring or Fall. You'll enjoy lower rates, greater selection, gorgeous weather and the absence of large crowds at your favorite New Bern restaurants and activities. Many vacationers use this method to find larger homes within budget, or to book a beach front vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during the high season. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a New Bern vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday on the coast? Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with loved ones at the beach.
• Reserve your vacation home as early as possible. Rental schedules usually open twelve months in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many families book their Summer vacations during Christmas and Thanksgiving get-togethers. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property manager whether your group qualifies for a reduced rate.
• Property management companies frequently offer guests an option to buy vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which generally will cost you anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for days missed as a result of medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unanticipated hotel or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance might be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for specifics.
• Often, property management companies supply New Bern area visitor guide magazines which will include special deals, either offered directly by local businesses, or by way of a relationship with the rental management company and the business itself. You can also find visitors guide and coupon books at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers.

Narrow your rental Search:

• Select a group lead, select your vacation week, and choose a max budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and the configuration your group requires. Updated Oceanfront Duplex in Ocean Oaks near the Point has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our New Bern vacation rental search.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed types is usually available on booking pages. If not, contact the property owner before reserving the home. Note that most properties list maximum guest capacity, which usually includes sofa beds in living rooms.
• If there's a specific New Bern beach you simply love, search for properties that are either near by, or those that cater to your desires.
• Appropriate accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for persons with disabilities. Make certain to ask about specialized equipment and wheel chair accessibility.
• If your family is bringing pets, you will need a pet-friendly rental. Get details on breed, size, and type requirements. Be aware that some property owners require additional pet deposits and fees.

More tips for your stay:

• Put the manager's contact information in your smartphone.
• At Check-in, note any damages to the property and immediately alert the property manager. Record all coorespondence.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a hot tub, elevator or kitchen appliance. Contact your host. They are there to help! A brief telephone call prevents many difficulties.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like unpleasant vacationers bothering your peaceful neighborhood. Employ the golden rule for common sense. Happy residents may even recommend great restaurants and places you would have never otherwise known about!
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Neighbors can frequently help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to get the best breakfast in town, have a great night out, or the best spots for fishing?
• Keep your rental home locked while you are gone! Don't let thieves spoil your trip.
• Re-check every room of the property to confirm that you've packed all belongings at departure. Make sure to check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden items. Clean out the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Go through the property one final time and look for any damage. We advise walking through with the property manager whenever you can. If the property manager isn't available, take pictures of the rental to record its condition at check-out.
• Remember to leave feedback! Property owners rely on good reviews to inspire future reservations. They'll be thankful for your feedback. Alternatively, if something went wrong, other families will be thankful you shared your feedback and help them have the best future vacation. Remember to be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the manager could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded quickly to fix it.
