Strategies to get the perfect vacation property experience:

When to visit & When to reserve a Pine Knoll Shores rental home:

• Summertime is the most expensive season along the coast of NC. Booking a rental in Fall or Spring months is a great way to save on your vacation home. Rates are lower, and you'll find a better selection of suitable homes.
• In the Beaufort, NC area, The earlier your group can reserve a home, the better your selection will be. The best rental properties are booked early. Reserving your rental property six to twelve months before your vacation is recommended. Christmas, Thanksgiving and New Years Eve are excellent times to plan and reserve your vacation home.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective vacation rental company or host if your vacationing group qualifies for a discount.
• Property management companies usually offer customers an option to add trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which normally will cost you between 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed trip time as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance might be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for more information.
• Often, management companies and vacation rental houses supply Beaufort, NC area travel guides that include special offers, either offered independently by local businesses, or by way of a relationship between the property management company and the business itself. You can also find Beaufort, NC visitors guide and coupon books at local shops and grocery stores.

Make a plan and choose the perfectrental:

• Select dates and spending budget.
• Note the number bedrooms and the configuration your group requires. Big Kahuna - Oceanfront (As seen on HGTV Beach Hunters) has 6 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms.
• Precise details about bedrooms and bed types is generally available on booking pages. If not, email or call the property management company before you reserve the property. Remember that most listings specify maximum guest capacity, which oftentimes includes sofa beds and bunks. You will need to determine what is best for your group.
• Does your group require special amenities? Most rental websites include search filters for amenities. Filtering by amenity will allow you to quickly find the best rental.
• Proper accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for persons with a disability. Make certain to inquire about specialized equipment and wheel chair accessibility.
• Some properties allow pets, but others do not. Acceptable types of dog or cat, weight and breeds may be restricted, and additional fees may apply. Ask the owner about pets before booking.

More tips for your visit:

• Be sure you get the host's contact number and arrival/departure procedures for your rental.
• To make sure that no damages are attributed to your family's stay, inspect the rental for any problem areas during arrival. Call the property manager immediately to relay any damages. If there is a dispute about legal responsibility later, having the recorded problems and contact attempts will be useful.
• Hosts are there to help! Don't be shy to ask any questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like loud visitors disrupting your peace and quiet. Use the golden rule for common sense. Happy residents may even recommend great beaches and places you would've never otherwise known about!
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Local residents can frequently help. Who better to ask where to spend a rainy day, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for BBQ?
• Ensure you protect the owner (and your things!) by locking the property while you are gone, just like you would back home.
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before you drive away, walk through the property to confirm you've collected all personal items. Check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden belongings. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Go through the rental one final time and look for any damage. We advise inspecting the property with the property manager whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the host isn't available, take video of the property to record its condition at check-out.
• Did you have a excellent vacation? Most rental management companies make it easy for guests to provide reviews. If your rental property and/or property management company was fantastic, they would love to hear about it. If anything was wrong and they failed to correct it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make a note as part of your comments.
