Tips to get the optimal vacation property experience:

Sticking to your rental budget:

• The earlier you can reserve a vacation home, the better your selection will be. The most desirable rental homes are reserved early. Reserving your rental home 6-12 months before your travel dates is recommended. Winter holidays are excellent times to plan and reserve your vacation home.
• June, July, and August are the most expensive months in the Beaufort, NC area. Book your Beaufort, NC rental property in Spring or Fall to enjoy gorgeous weather while saving money and avoiding crowds.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property manager if your group qualifies for a special promotion or discount.
• Property managers often offer their guests an option to add vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which normally costs 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed time as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather, as well as hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance might be a a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for more information.
• Many management companies supply Beaufort, NC area visitor guides which will include coupons, either offered directly by local businesses, or by way of a partnership between the property management company and the business itself. You can also find Beaufort, NC visitors guide magazine and coupon books at local shops and grocery stores.

How to choose and book your prefectrental home:

• Begin by selecting your trip dates and a max budget.
• Decide how many beds and the bed configuration you need. Oceanview, close to beach, pool, fire pit, dog friendly with no extra fee! has 5 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms.
• Specific information about bedrooms and bed counts is often available on booking pages. If they are not listed, call the property management company before reserving the home. Note that most property listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which oftentimes includes pull out couches in living rooms. You will need to establish what configuration is optimal for your group.
• If your family is traveling with pets, you must book a rental that allows animals. Make sure to ask for details on breed, size, and type restrictions. Some property owners charge additional pet fees.
• If there's a specific Beaufort, NC attraction you love, keep an eye out for rentals that are either nearby, or those that cater especially to your needs.
• Suitable accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for the less-mobile. Confirm all necessary amenities are available before reserving a rental.

During your stay:

• Get the host's phone number and entry/exit procedures for your . Store the host's contact information in your smartphone.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a fireplace, stereo or thermostat. Contact your host. They are there to help! A brief call can prevent many issues.
• Ensure you protect the property owner (and your stuff!) by locking the rental when you are away, just like you would back home.
• To ensure that no damages are attributed to your family's visit, make note of any problem areas upon check in. message the property manager right away to relay any issues. If there is a dispute about legal responsibility later, having the recorded problems and contact attempts will be valuable.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like disagreeable visitors disrupting your peace. Employ the golden rule for best judgement. Happy residents may even recommend great local food and scenic spots you would've not otherwise known about!
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Locals can often help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to order delicious takeout, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for bird watching?
• When it's time to leave, take a final walk-through to make sure you have not forget any personal items. Check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden treasure. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Go through the property one final time and scan for damages to contents or the property itself. We recommend inspecting the property with the host whenever possible. If the host is not available, ensure that you take photos and video of the rental to record its condition at check-out.
• Did you have a terrific vacation? Many rental management companies make it easy for vacationers to provide reviews. If your rental property and/or host was wonderful, they will likely appreciate your kind words. If anything was imperfect and they failed to address it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make a note as part of your comments.
