Our top Emerald Isle vacation rental booking tips and tricks:

When to visit Emerald Isle & When to reserve a Beaufort, NC rental home:

• Reserve your vacation rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules generally become available a year in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many groups book their Summer rental homes during Christmas and Thanksgiving gatherings. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• To book the most suitable vacation home within budget, we suggest reserving in Fall or Spring months. You'll enjoy lower rates, greater selection, gorgeous weather and the absence of giant crowds at restaurants, beaches, and activities. Many vacationers use this strategy to find larger homes within budget, or to book an oceanfront rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during the Summer.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property management company or host if your group qualifies for a reduced rate.
• Property managers typically offer customers an option to buy trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which will generally cost 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed vacation time as a result of medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel stay or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance might be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for more information.
• Find a copy of your local Beaufort, NC area magazine upon arrival. If your rental home doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local shops and visitor centers. In addition to great local information, visitor guides have deals for nearby restaurants, attractions, and tours.

Use filters to search efficiently:

• Choose vacation week and max budget.
• Note the number bedrooms and the bed configuration your family requires. Unique Octagonal-Style Beach Home with Pool Kid + Dog Friendly! has 6 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our search.
• Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is often accessible on booking pages. If you don't see them listed, call the property owner before you reserve the home. Remember that most property listings specify the max. guest capacity, which frequently includes sofa beds and bunks. You will need to determine what is suitable for your vacation family.
• If your group is bringing pets, you must book a pet-friendly vacation rental. Ask for information on breed, size, and type restrictions. Note that some property owners charge pet deposits and fees.
• Are you looking for special amenities? Most rental websites include search filters with amenity lists. Filtering by amenity will allow you to quickly find the perfect rental.
• Suitable accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for persons with disabilities. Confirm all required amenities are available before reserving a rental

Tips for your stay:

• Add the property manager's phone number to your smartphone. Take a copy of arrival/departure procedures.
• Hosts are great sources of help! Feel free to ask any questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Lock your vacation home while you are out. Protect your property!
• To make certain damages aren't attributed to your family's stay, make a record of any problem areas when you arrive. E-mail the host right away to record any issues. If there is a dispute about who is responsible, having a record of concerns and contact attempts will be useful.
• Be respectful. Often times, surrounding homes are filled by local residents. Respecting noise limits and parking policies is the right thing to do.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Neighbors can usually help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to go for the best drinks, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fine dining?
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before you drive away, take a walk through the rental to make sure you've collected everything. Remember to check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden treasure. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Walk through the rental a final time and look for damages to contents or the property itself. We advise walking through with the property manager whenever possible. If the manager is not available, ensure that you take video of the rental to record its condition at check-out.
• Leave feedback! Property owners rely on excellent ratings to inspire future bookings. They'll be grateful for your feedback. Alternatively, if something wasn't right, other families will be thankful you shared your review find their best vacation rental. Please be fair with your feedback If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the owner could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded reasonably to fix it.
