Strategies for getting the best Emerald Isle vacation home experience:

Cost saving strategies:

• Summertime is the most expensive season along the coast of NC. Reserving a rental home in Fall or Spring is an excellent way to save money on your vacation home. Rental rates are lower, and you'll find a better selection of acceptable homes. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Beaufort, NC vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation on the coast? Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with family and friends at the beach.
• Reserve your vacation home as soon as possible. Rental schedules usually open 12 months in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many groups book their Summer rental homes during Thanksgiving and Christmas gatherings. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property management company or host whether your group qualifies for a price reduction or discount.
• Management companies and individual rental owners usually offer guests an option to add trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which costs between 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed time as a result of medical-related issues or weather, as well as hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for more information.
• Often, rental management companies and vacation rental houses supply Beaufort, NC area visitor guides which often include special deals, either offered directly by local companies, or through a relationship between the rental management company and the business itself. You can also find Beaufort, NC area magazine and coupon books at local gas stations and shopping centers.

How to choose the best rental in Emerald Isle:

• First, have your family commit to dates and a max budget.
• Decide how many beds and what type of bedroom configuration your family needs. 11 Bedroom Ocean front Sand Castle Estate has 11 bedrooms and 11 bathrooms.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is normally accessible online. Otherwise, email the property owner before booking the rental. Remember that most property listings specify maximum guest capacity, which typically includes pull-out couches and bunk beds. You'll need to work out which bed configuration is suitable for your vacation family.
• Looking for special amenities? Most rental search websites include search filters for amenities.
• Suitable accessibility can make or break a vacation for guests with disabilities. Confirm all required amenities are available before booking.
• Some rentals allow pets, and some don't. Allowable types of family pet, size and breeds may be restricted, and additional fees may apply. Ask the property management company about allowable breeds and types before booking.

Tips for your stay:

• Add the property manager's contact info to your smartphone. Print and take a copy of arrival/departure procedures.
• During check-in, record any issues with the property and immediately contact the owner. Keep records of all coorespondence.
• Hosts are available to help! Feel free to ask any questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Be respectful of your neighbors. Frequently, adjacent homes are occupied by permanent residents. Respecting noise limits and parking policies reduces conflict and allows everyone to enjoy their day.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Locals can frequently help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to get the best breakfast in town, have a great night out, or the best spots for fine dining?
• Ensure you protect the owner (and your things!) by locking and securing the home while you are gone, just like you would back home.
• When it's time to leave, complete a final walk-through to confirm you did not forget anything. Check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden items. Clean out the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Did you have a fantastic time? Most rental management companies make it easy for customers to provide reviews. If your property and/or host was fantastic, they will likely appreciate your kind words. If anything was wrong and they failed to correct it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make a note as part of your comments.
