Tips and Tricks for getting the perfect Emerald Isle rental home experience:

When to visit Emerald Isle & When to reserve a Emerald Isle rental home:

• Summer months are high season in the Beaufort, NC area. To get the best value, try shifting your family's Beaufort, NC vacation to the Spring or Fall shoulder seasons. May, September, and even October offer warmer temperatures, , and reduced traffic. 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? Christmas, Thanksgiving, and New Years Eve are great times to gather with loved ones at the beach.
• Book your vacation home as soon as possible. Rental schedules often become available a year in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many families reserve their Summer rental homes during Thanksgiving and Christmas gatherings. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Some owners offer special rates for active duty military and veterans. Remember to ask your property manager if discounts are available for your group before you book.
• Property management companies typically offer customers an option to buy trip insurance. Trip insurance, which costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any days missed as a result of medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for specifics.
• Look for your local Beaufort, NC visitors guide upon checking in. If your rental doesn't have one, you can find them at local shops and visitor centers. In addition to great information, visitor guides contain deals for nearby accommodations and attractions.

Use filters to search efficiently:

• Start by having your group commit to the best dates and a budget.
• Decide how many beds and the bed configuration your family needs. Oceanfront Cottage with Private Beach Access has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our search.
• Specific information regarding bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is normally accessible on booking websites. Otherwise, reach out to the host before booking your rental. Note that most properties list the maximum guest capacity, which frequently includes pull-out couches and bunk beds. You'll need to establish what is best for your vacation group.
• Looking for special amenities? Most rental websites include search filters with amenity lists.
• Suitable accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for persons with a disability. Remember to confirm all required amenities are available and included before reserving a rental
• If your family is vacationing with pets, you'll need to search for a pet-friendly property. Request information on breed, weight, and type restrictions. Note that some hosts charge additional pet fees.

During your stay:

• Add the property manager's phone number to your smartphone. Take a copy of arrival/departure procedures.
• To make certain that damages are not attributed to your family's visit, make a record of any problem areas during check in. text the host immediately to report any pre-existing damages. If there is a dispute, having the recorded issues and contact attempts will be valuable.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a hot tub, television set or WIFI setup. Contact your host. They are there to help! A brief text message prevents quite a few problems.
• Respecting quiet hours and parking rules can make a stay significantly more pleasurable. Be a good neighbor. You will magnify your chance to make local friends, and resident neighbors are often a great resource to find the best local attractions.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Neighbors can often help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to order delicious takeout, have a great night out, or the best spots for BBQ?
• Ensure you protect the property owner (and your stuff!) by locking and securing the home while you are gone, just like you would back home.
• Just prior to departing, complete a walk-through to make sure you didn't forget anything. Re-check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden treasure. Clean the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Did your group have a great stay? Most vacation rental websites make it easy for vacationers to provide comments. If your rental property and/or host was terrific, they always love to hear your praise. If anything was defective and they failed to address it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make a note as part of your comments.
