Tips and Tricks to get the perfect Beaufort, NC rental experience:

Finding the best rental home value:

• To get the largest vacation home within budget, we strongly suggest reserving in the Fall or Spring. You'll benefit from lower rental rates, better selection, beautiful weather and the absence of large crowds at Beaufort, NC restaurants, tours, and activities.
• The sooner you can book, the better your selection will be. The most desirable vacation homes are reserved early. Reserving your vacation property up to 12 months before your travel dates is recommended. Holiday gatherings are excellent times to plan and reserve your rental home.
• Some property management companies offer promotional rates for veterans. Ask your property manager if special offers are available for your family.
• Management companies and individual rental owners usually offer guests an option to buy trip insurance. Trip insurance, which costs between 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for days missed as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as ensuing additional evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel stay or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for specifics.
