Tips for getting the perfect Emerald Isle rental home experience:

Finding your perfect rental home:

• Booking your vacation home in the Fall or Spring is one of our best tips for saving money on your vacation. Rental rates are lower, and you'll find a better selection of suitable properties.
• Book your vacation home as soon as possible. Rental schedules generally become available a year in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many families reserve their Summer vacations during holiday get-togethers. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Property managers sometimes offer promotional rates for veterans. Ask your host or property manager if special discounts are available for your family before you book.
• Booking websites frequently offer customers an option to add trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which generally will cost 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed days as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel stay or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance might be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for details.
• Find a copy of your local visitors guide upon checking in. If your rental doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local grocery stores and visitor centers. In addition to great local stories, visitor guide magazines have offers and deals for nearby shops and restaurants.

Use filters to search efficiently:

• Select a group leader, select your trip dates, and select a budget.
• Note the number bedrooms and the configuration your family needs. VIP Beach Access, 3 BR House w/Linens, Yard, Screened Porch, & No Stairs has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Precise information regarding bedrooms and bed counts & types is almost always accessible online. Otherwise, call the host before reserving the vacation property. Note that most property listings specify the max. guest capacity, which usually includes pull out couches in living rooms. You will need to determine what is right for your vacation.
• Are you looking for unique amenities? Most rental search websites include search filters for amenities. Amenity filters help you quickly remove less-optimal properties.
• Proper accessibility can make or break a vacation for those with limited mobility. Make certain to inquire about specialized equipment and wheel chair accessibility.
• If your group is bringing pets, you will need a property that allows animals. Ask for information on breed, weight, and type restrictions. Some property managers charge additional pet fees.

Some things to know before you go:

• Review arrival and departure procedures before leaving home. Add a note with the directions to your phone, and take a printed copy.
• Note any damages to the property upon arrival, and immediately e-mail them to the host. We specifically recommend e-mails and text messages, as they usually contain time stamps that are valuable if damages are attributed to your stay.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a garage door opener, elevator or washer/dryer. Contact your owner. They are there to help! A brief phone call can prevent quite a few difficulties.
• Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking restrictions can make a stay more pleasurable. Be a good neighbor. You will increase your chance to make local friends, and resident neighbors are usually a fantastic source for finding the best local beaches and hangouts.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Local residents can often help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to charter a fishing boat, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for BBQ?
• Lock your vacation home while you're out. Keep your property safe!
• On check-out day, take a walk-through to confirm you did not forget any personal items. Make sure to check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden items. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Walk through the rental a final time and look for damage. We advise inspecting the property with the host whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the property manager isn't available, ensure that you take photos and video of the property to record its condition at check-out.
• Did your family have a wonderful stay? Many rental management companies make it easy for customers to provide reviews. If your rental property and/or property manager was terrific, they would love to hear about it. If anything was wrong and they failed to address it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make it a point as part of your review.
