PLEASE CONTACT OWNER IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS ABOUT THE HOME.
OWNER PREFERS TO COMMUNICATE WITH ALL GUESTS 'BEFORE' GUESTS MAKE A RESERVATION TO BE SURE TO ANSWER ALL QUESTIONS AND TO MAKE SURE THIS HOME IS EXACTLY WHAT YOU ARE LOOKING FOR IN ORDER TO MEET ALL YOUR EXPECTATIONS. THANK YOU VERY MUCH!!! :-)

• LARGEST PRIVATE POOL on EMERALD ISLE!!!
Pool measures 44' long x 16' wide. The Pool design has wide, shallow steps/entrance-way at both ends which makes it great for kids and the elderly. It is 4 feet deep. It also has a floating rope that divides the pool down the middle so that you have your own side for privacy. Our Concrete Deck (surrounding the pool) is cool on the feet (unlike TREX Decking that other homes use which is too hot to walk on in bare feet in the summertime).

• NO CHARGE for 'HOST FEE': Unlike the majority of Homeowners, we do NOT charge this ($150 to $450) fee! (Not to be confused with Vacation Rental By Owner Fee)

• NO CHARGE for POOL HEATING: in May/June and Sept/Oct when heat is needed (Saves you over $550…because MOST homes in Emerald Isle charge $550 to $600 ‘additional’ for Pool Heating!!! We don’t!!!)
(Pool Heater operable only when the air temperature is above 60 degrees...so the month of April is very iffy if the pool will be warm enough for swimming. That is why our ‘APRIL’ PRICES are comparable to homes 'without' a pool). Pool heating is not at all necessary for the months of July/Aug.

Finding the best vacation home experience:

Sticking to your rental budget:

• June, July, and August are high season in Emerald Isle. Reserve your Beaufort, NC rental property in Fall or Spring to enjoy warm weather while saving money and avoiding crowded roads, restaurants, and activities. Many vacationers use this strategy to find larger homes within budget, or to reserve an oceanfront rental that would otherwise be unavailable during the Summer. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Beaufort, NC vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday near the ocean? Christmas, Thanksgiving, and New Years Eve are great times to gather with family and friends at the beach.
• Book your vacation home as soon as possible. Rental schedules often open a year in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many families reserve their Summer rentals during Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years Eve get-togethers. Book 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 family qualifies for a special promotion or discount.
• Management companies and individual rental owners frequently offer guests an option to obtain trip insurance. Trip insurance, which costs between 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for days missed as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as ensuing additional evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance can be a a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for details.
• Find a copy of your local visitors guide when you check-in. If your rental property doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local shops and visitor centers. In addition to great local articles, visitor guide magazines contain discounts for local attractions, tours, restaurants, and shops.

Planning and choosing a perfect Beaufort, NC vacation home:

• Begin by selecting vacation dates and a max budget.
• Decide how many bedrooms and the bed configuration your family needs. June 7 week 50% OFF!! OCEANFRONT with LARGEST POOL, FREE POOL HEAT, EMERALD ISLE has 4 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Precise details about bedrooms and bed counts & types is often accessible on booking websites. If they are not listed, reach out to the property owner before you book the rental. Note that most properties list the max. guest capacity, which typically includes pull-out couches. You will need to establish which bed configuration is suitable for your group.
• Are you looking for specific amenities? Most rental websites include search filters for amenities.
• Appropriate accessibility can make or break a vacation for guests that require the use of a wheelchair. Confirm all required amenities are included before booking
• Are you traveling with furry, four-legged family members? Although a number of vacation homes allow pets or animals, guidelines and costs vary per property. Allowable pet type, breed, and size are often limited. Make sure to ask before booking, and study your rental agreement! Additional pet fees or costs may be applied to your contract.

More considerations:

• Add the property manager's contact info to your smartphone. Take a copy of arrival/departure procedures.
• Upon check-in, make note of any issues with the rental property and immediately alert the property manager. Keep records of all coorespondence.
• Property managers are available to help! Feel free to ask any questions during your stay.
• Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking restrictions can make a stay more pleasurable. You will increase your chance to make some new local friends, and resident neighbors can be a great source for finding the best local restaurants, beaches, and hangouts.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Neighbors can frequently help. Who better to ask where to get the best breakfast in town, have a great night out, or the best spots for fine dining?
• Protect the owner (and your stuff!) by locking and securing the home while 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 at check-out. Check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden treasure. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Did you have a wonderful vacation? Many rental websites make it easy for guests to provide feedback. If your property and/or property manager was fantastic, they would love to hear about it. If anything was imperfect and they failed to address it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make a note as part of your review.
