Our top Rental property booking tips:

How to get the best rental home value:

• June, July, and August are the most expensive months along the coast of NC. Booking your Beaufort, NC vacation home in Spring or Fall is our favorite way to save money on your vacation home. Rates are lower, and you'll find a larger selection of desirable properties. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, or to reserve an oceanfront vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable during the Summer.
• The earlier your group can reserve a home, the better your selection will be. The best vacation rentals are reserved very early. Reserving your vacation rental up to twelve months before your vacation is recommended. Christmas, Thanksgiving and New Years Eve are excellent times to search for and book your vacation rental.
• Some owners offer discounts for veterans. Remember to ask your host or property manager if rate reductions are available for your family.
• Management companies and individual rental owners typically offer customers an option to buy trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which normally will cost you anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed trip time as a result of medical-related issues or weather, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance might be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for more information.
• Many property management companies and vacation rental houses supply Beaufort, NC area travel guide magazines which will include special offers, either offered independently by local businesses, or by way of a relationship with the management company and the business itself. You can also find Beaufort, NC visitors guide and coupon books at local gas stations and shopping centers.

How to choose the best vacation rental in the Beaufort, NC area:

• Choose a designated group leader, choose your vacation week, and select a max budget.
• Note the number beds and the bed configuration your group needs. Sunshine Daydream West, Oceanfront Duplex in Emerald Isle, NC! has 5 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed types is commonly available on booking websites. Otherwise, email the property owner before you book your rental. Note that most properties list the max. guest capacity, which oftentimes includes pull-out couches and bunk beds.
• Are you visiting for a specific event? Use a map search to find nearby properties.
• Proper accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for persons with disabilities. Confirm all necessary amenities are available before reserving a rental.
• If your family is bringing pets, you'll need to book a pet-friendly vacation rental. Get specifics on breed, size, and type requirements. Be aware that some hosts require additional pet deposits and fees.

Tips to have a fantastic stay:

• Store the manager's contact information in your smartphone.
• To make sure that damages aren't linked to your family's visit, note any problem areas during arrival. Contact the host immediately to relay any pre-existing damages. If there is a dispute about legal responsibility later, having the recorded issues and contact attempts will be useful.
• Hosts are there to help! Don't be shy to ask questions during your stay.
• Respecting quiet hours and parking policies can make a stay significantly more pleasurable. You'll enhance your chance to make local friends, and resident neighbors are usually a fantastic resource to find the best local beaches and restaurants.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Residents can frequently help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to charter a fishing boat, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for BBQ?
• Ensure you protect the owner (and your stuff!) by locking the property when you are gone, just like you would at home.
• Double-check every room of the rental property to make sure that you've packed all belongings on check-out day. Check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden treasure. Clean out the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Inspect the rental a final time and look for any damage. We advise walking through with the host whenever you can. If the property manager is not available, ensure that you take video of the rental to record its condition at check-out.
• Did you have a excellent stay? Many rental home management companies make it easy for vacationers to provide feedback. If your property and/or property management company was terrific, they would love to hear about it. If anything was wrong and they failed to fix it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make it a point as part of your comments.
