Rental home tips:

Get the most from your budget:

• Summertime is the most expensive season along the coast of NC. Booking your vacation rental in the Spring or Fall is a great way to save on your vacation home. Rental rates are lower, and you'll find a better selection of desirable homes. Many vacationers use this strategy to reserve larger homes, or to book a beach front rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during June, July, and August. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Beaufort, NC vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday near the ocean? Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with friends and family at your favorite beach.
• Book your vacation home as soon as possible. Rental schedules usually open 12 months in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many groups reserve their Summer rental homes during Christmas and Thanksgiving gatherings. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property owner whether your group qualifies for a special promotion or discount.
• Property management companies frequently offer renters an option to purchase vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which normally will cost you 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for days missed as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for program terms and fees.
• Look for your local Beaufort, NC visitors guide magazine when you arrive at the rental property. If your rental property doesn't have one, you can find them at local shops and fuel stations. In addition to great articles, visitor guide magazines contain deals for nearby tours, shops, and attractions.

Use filters to narrow your rental search:

• Select a group lead, select your vacation dates, and select a budget.
• Note the number bedrooms and what type of bedroom configuration your family needs. Oceanfront stunner in Emerald Isle has 5 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms.
• Specific information regarding bedrooms and bed counts is often accessible online. If not, email the property owner before booking the property. Note that most listings specify maximum guest capacity, which frequently includes pull-out couches. You will need to work out what configuration is suitable for your vacation family.
• If there's a specific Beaufort, NC destination you crave, browse properties that are either close by, or those that cater to your desires.
• Suitable accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for the less-mobile. Remember to confirm all required amenities are included before reserving a rental
• If your family is traveling with pets, you'll need to find a property that allows animals. Ask for details on breed, size, and type restrictions. Note that some property owners charge pet deposits and fees.

Considerations for your stay:

• We recommend storing the owner's information in your smartphone and wallet.
• Upon arrival, record any issues with the rental property and immediately alert the property manager. Record all coorespondence.
• Property managers are there to help! Don't be shy to ask any questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Be respectful. Often times, adjacent homes are occupied by permanent residents. Respecting quiet hours and parking policies can make a stay significantly more pleasurable.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Locals can typically help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to take kids for a treat, have a great night out, or the best spots for fine dining?
• Protect the rental owner (and your things!) by locking the property when you are away, just like you would at home.
• Double-check every room of the rental property to make sure that you've packed all of your belongings at departure. Re-check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden items. Clean the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Walk through the property a final time and keep an eye out for damages to contents or the property itself. We suggest inspecting the property with the property manager whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the manager isn't available, take photographs of the property to record its condition at check-out.
• Leave a review! Property managers rely on excellent reviews to propel new bookings. They'll be much obliged for your review. Alternatively, if something went awry, other families will appreciate that you share your experience find their best vacation home. Remember to be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the owner could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded reasonably to solve it.
