Getting the best vacation property experience:

Get the most from your rental home budget:

• Book your vacation home as soon as possible. Rental schedules often become available 12 months in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many families reserve their Summer vacation rentals during Winter holiday gatherings. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Summer is the most expensive season in Emerald Isle. To find the best value, shift your group's vacation week to the Spring or Fall months. May, September, and even October offer great temperatures, less crowded beaches, and reduced traffic. Many vacationers use this strategy to reserve larger homes, or to book a beach front rental that would otherwise be unavailable or 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 on the coast? Thanksgiving and Christmas are great times to gather with loved ones at your favorite beach.
• Property management companies sometimes offer discounts for active duty military and veterans. Check with your host or property manager to see if discounts are available for your family.
• Property management companies usually offer their guests an option to buy vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which generally will cost 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed days as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as ensuing additional evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel stay or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for details.
• Look for your local visitors guide when you arrive at the rental property. If your rental doesn't have one, you can find them at local shops and visitor centers. In addition to great local information, travel guide magazines contain money saving offers on local accommodations, restaurants and tours.

Planning and picking yourvacation home:

• Select dates and max budget.
• Note the number bedrooms and what type of bedroom configuration your family requires. Footprints, Oceanfront House in Emerald Isle, NC! has 8 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our Beaufort, NC rentals search.
• Specific details about bedrooms and bed types is almost always available on booking websites. If you don't see them listed, email or call the property owner before reserving your rental. Note that most listings specify the max. guest capacity, which frequently includes pull-out couches and bunk beds.
• If your group is bringing pets, you must book a property that allows animals. Get details on breed, weight, and type requirements. Some property managers charge pet deposits and fees.
• If there's an individual Beaufort, NC destination you long to visit, look for homes that are either near by, or those that cater to your needs.
• Proper accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for guests that require the use of a wheelchair. .

Some things to know before you go:

• Take a copy of the owner's phone number and arrival/departure procedures for your rental. Put the host's information in your smartphone.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a fireplace, A/V setup or kitchen appliance. Contact your property manager. They are there to help! A brief phone call prevents lots of concerns.
• Protect the property owner (and your things!) by keeping the rental locked up when you are away, just like you would back home.
• To make certain that no damages are attributed to your visit, make a record of any problem areas during arrival. Contact the property manager right away to relay any damages. If there is a dispute about legal responsibility later, having the recorded issues and contact attempts will be very helpful.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like disagreeable vacationers disrupting your peace and quiet. Practice the golden rule for best judgement. If they like you, locals might even recommend great local food and attractions you would've not otherwise known!
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Neighbors can often help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to enjoy a steak with a view, have a great night out, or the best spots for crabbing?
• Re-check the property to confirm that you've packed everything at check-out. Make sure to check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden treasure. Clean out the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Document the condition of the property at check-out. We recommend taking a video during your final walk-through.
• Did your group have a wonderful stay? Many rental home management companies make it easy for vacationers to provide feedback. If your rental property and/or property management company was terrific, they would love to hear it. If anything was imperfect and they failed to correct it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make a note as part of your feedback.
