Our top Rental booking tips and tricks:

Finding the best rental home value:

• June, July, and August are the most expensive months along the coast of NC. Booking in Spring or Fall is our best tip for saving money on your vacation. Rental rates are lower, and you'll find a better selection of desirable homes.
• Book your vacation rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules often open 12 months in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many families reserve their Summer vacations during Winter holiday gatherings. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Hosts and Property managers sometimes offer discounts for veterans and active duty military. Ask your property manager if special discounts are available for your family.
• Property managers usually offer their guests an option to add trip insurance. Trip insurance, which normally will cost you between 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed vacation time as a result of medical-related issues or weather, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance can be a a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for details.
• Look for your local Beaufort, NC area magazine when you check-in. If your rental home doesn't have one, you can find them at local grocery stores and visitor centers. In addition to great articles, visitors guides contain discounts for local tours and attractions.

Planning and picking your prefectrental home:

• Select a group lead, choose your dates, and select a budget.
• Note the number bedrooms and the configuration you need. Great location - 2nd row, 2 kitchens, oceanviews, heated pool & volleyball Ct has 6 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms.
• Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts is regularly accessible on booking websites. If they are not listed, email the property management company before you book the vacation home. Note that most listings specify the max. guest capacity, which typically includes sofa beds in living rooms.
• If there's an individual Beaufort, NC beach you simply love, search for rentals that are either near by, or those that cater especially to your desires.
• Proper accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for guests with disabilities. Confirm all required amenities are available before booking
• If your group is traveling with pets, you'll need to search for a pet-friendly property. Request specifics on breed, size, and type requirements. Usually, property managers charge pet deposits and fees.

Considerations for your stay:

• Take a copy of the owner's contact number and arrival/departure procedures for your rental.
• To make certain that no damages are linked to your family's visit, inspect for any problem areas during check in. Make contact with the rental manager right away to relay any issues. If there is a dispute, having the recorded problems and contact attempts will be valuable.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a garage door opener, television set or washer/dryer. Contact your host. They are there to help! A brief phone call prevents lots of issues.
• Respect your neighbors. Frequently, surrounding homes are occupied by local residents. Respecting quiet hours and parking rules can make a stay significantly more pleasurable.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Residents can usually help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to see a beautiful sunrise or sunset, have a great night out, or the best spots for fishing?
• Ensure you protect the owner (and your things!) by locking the rental when you are away, just like you would back home.
• Just prior to departing, complete a walk-through to confirm you didn't leave anything behind. Check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden items. Clean out the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Did your family have a wonderful vacation? Many vacation rental websites make it easy for travelers to provide reviews. If your rental property and/or property management company was fantastic, they would love to hear about it. If anything was imperfect and they failed to correct it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make it a point as part of your review.
