***Guest Testimonials***

Will:
Five Star Airbnb with very responsive host!! Michael and his team were proactive checking in with me throughout our stay. For families with kids, this is best Airbnb in AB!!! House sits on end of street with no traffic so very safe for kids to be outside on bicycles, etc. Very safe neighborhood with friendly neighbors and only a row from beach. Highly recommended and plan to stay again soon bc my kids adored it so much!!!

Robbie:
Michael and his home were striking.
The location is a short walk to the beach and very nice. My family had an spectacular time in his handsome home. I was nervous as being a first timer using the air bnb platform. However, this home, the host and air bnb customer care went way about my greatest expectations. I would highly recommend this home and ‘I hawk as the host for anyone. We will definitely be using this home and this host again.

Our time at Atlantic Beach was great and we appreciated staying at Michael's place. He was a very attentive host and we had everything we needed to make our trip a success! We will definitely consider staying there on our next trip!

Nicole:
Great location! Beach access was phenomenal. Guests should know that there are two big flights of stairs to reach the main living area, though, so this home is likely not appropriate for elderly guests.

The home comes with 2 parking spots - no parking in the grass or the garage. Do not block driveways to other homes. Follow all street signs or you are at risk of being towed.

Tips to get the optimal vacation home experience:

Get the most from your vacation rental budget:

• In the Beaufort, NC area, The earlier you can reserve a vacation rental, the better your selection will be. The most desirable rental homes are reserved early. Booking your rental six to twelve months before your vacation dates is recommended. Holiday gatherings are excellent times to search for and book your rental home.
• To find the best value, consider shifting your group's trip dates to the Spring or Fall shoulder seasons. May, September, and even October offer warm weather, less crowded beaches, and reduced traffic. Many vacationers use this strategy to reserve larger homes, or to reserve a beach front vacation rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during the Summer months. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Beaufort, NC vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation near the ocean? Thanksgiving and Christmas are great times to gather with friends and family at your favorite beach.
• Some owners offer rate reductions for active duty military and veterans. Remember to ask your property manager if special discounts are available for your family.
• Booking websites typically offer customers an option to buy trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which commonly costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed trip time as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel stay or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance might be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for additional information.
• Find a copy of your local visitors guide when you check-in. If your rental property doesn't have one, you can find them at local grocery stores and visitor centers. In addition to great local information, travel guide magazines have discounts for local accommodations, restaurants and tours.

How to pick the perfect vacation home:

• Begin by choosing vacation dates and a spending budget.
• Summer Paradise
• Precise information regarding bedrooms and bed types is normally available on booking websites. If they are not listed, reach out to the host before you book the home. Note that most listings specify maximum guest capacity, which frequently includes pull out couches in living rooms.
• Are you traveling with furry, four-legged family members? Many vacation homes allow animals, but guidelines and restrictions apply. Allowable pet type, breed, and size are often limited. Remember to ask the property manager before booking, and study your rental agreement! Extra fees or charges might be applied to your agreement.
• If there's a particular Beaufort, NC attraction you long to visit, keep an eye out for properties that are either close by, or those that cater especially to your needs.
• Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for persons with disabilities. Confirm all necessary amenities are included before booking.

Considerations for your stay:

• Review check in & check out procedures before traveling. Add a note with the directions to your phone, and take a printed copy.
• Hosts are available to help! Feel free to ask any questions during your stay.
• Protect the rental owner (and your stuff!) by keeping the rental locked up while you are out, just like you would back home.
• During check-in, document any issues with the property and immediately contact the host. Keep records of all correspondence just in case a dispute arises.
• Respect your neighbors. Frequently, surrounding homes are occupied by permanent residents. Respecting noise limits and parking policies is the right thing to do.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Locals can frequently help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to book the best tours, have a great night out, or the best spots for fine dining?
• Don't leave anything behind! Before departing, walk through the rental to confirm you've collected all belongings. Make sure to check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden belongings. Clean out the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Inspect the property one final time and look for any damage. We suggest walking through with the property manager whenever you can. If the manager isn't available, ensure that you take video and pictures of the property to record its condition at check-out.
• Leave feedback! Property managers rely on excellent feedback to propel future bookings. They'll be grateful for your review. Alternatively, if something wasn't as described, other vacationing families will be thankful you shared your experience find their best rental home. Please be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the property manager had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded quickly to solve it.
