Our top Beaufort, NC rental home tips:

Sticking to your rental budget:

• The earlier you can book a vacation rental, the better your selection will be. The most desirable vacation homes are booked very early. Booking your rental property up to 12 months before your vacation dates is recommended. Christmas, Thanksgiving and New Years Eve are excellent times to plan and book your rental.
• To get the best value, shift your family's Beaufort, NC vacation dates to the Spring or Fall seasons. May, September, and even October offer pleasant temperatures, less crowded beaches, and reduced traffic. Many vacationers use this strategy to reserve larger homes, or to book an oceanfront rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during the high season. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Beaufort, NC vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday near the ocean? 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 host whether your vacationing group qualifies for a special rate.
• Property managers often offer guests an option to obtain vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which normally will cost 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed days as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather, as well as hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance might be a a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for additional information.
• Look for your local Beaufort, NC area magazine when you arrive at the rental property. If your rental property doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local shops and visitor centers. In addition to great local stories, travel guide magazines contain coupons for local tours, shops, and attractions.

How to choose the perfect rental home in the Beaufort, NC area:

• Choose a group leader, choose your trip dates, and choose a max budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and the configuration your family requires. Breakwater Blue! Amazing ocean views of our peaceful stretch of Beach has 5 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our rental home search.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed types is often accessible online. Otherwise, email the property manager before you reserve the vacation property. Remember that most properties list maximum guest capacity, which often includes sofa beds. You will need to work out what configuration is best for your vacation group.
• If your group is traveling with pets, you'll need to find a pet-friendly property. Get specifics on breed, weight, and type restrictions. Be aware that some property managers charge pet deposits and fees.
• Is your group looking for particular amenities? Most rental search websites include search filters for amenities.
• Suitable accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for those with limited mobility. Make certain to inquire about wheel chair entry, pool lifts and specialized equipment needs.

Additional considerations:

• Get the owner's contact number and check in/check out procedures for your rental home.
• Property managers are great sources of help! Don't be shy to ask questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Lock your vacation home while you're away. Keep your property safe!
• Note any issues with the property during check in, and immediately e-mail them to the property manager. We especially recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain built-in time stamps that are useful if damages are assessed.
• Respecting quiet hours and parking restrictions can make a stay significantly more pleasurable. You will increase your chance to make local friends, and resident neighbors are often a great source for finding the best local beaches.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Local residents can typically point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to get the best breakfast in town, have a great night out, or the best spots for fine dining?
• Double-check the property to make sure that you've packed all belongings on check-out day. Re-check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden treasure. Clean the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Document the condition of the property at check-out. We recommend taking a video during your final walk-through.
• Leave feedback! Property managers rely on great reviews to inspire new bookings. They'll be grateful for your feedback. Alternatively, if something went awry, other families will be thankful you shared your feedback and help them have the best future vacation. Be fair with your review. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the manager could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded reasonably to fix it.
