Tips and Tricks to get the best vacation rental experience:

Money saving strategies:

• Reserve your vacation rental as early as possible. Rental schedules generally open a year in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many families book their Summer rentals during Thanksgiving and Christmas gatherings. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• June, July, and August are the most expensive months in the Beaufort, NC area. Booking in Fall or Spring months is a good way to save on your rental home. Rates are lower, and you'll find a larger selection of acceptable homes. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Beaufort, NC vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation on the coast? Christmas, Thanksgiving, and New Years Eve are great times to gather with family and friends at your favorite beach.
• Some owners offer promotional rates for veterans. Ask your property manager if special offers are available for your group.
• Management companies and individual rental owners usually offer customers an option to purchase trip insurance. Trip insurance, which costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any days missed as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance can be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for specifics.
• Look for your local visitors guide when you check-in. If your rental home doesn't have one, you can find them at local shops and fuel stations. In addition to great information, travel guide magazines contain money saving offers on local attractions, tours, restaurants, and shops.

Filter your search:

• First and foremost, have your family decide on a vacation week and a budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and the bed configuration your family needs. Quaint ground floor guest house in historic Beaufort, NC. has 2 bedrooms and 1 bathrooms.
• Specific information about bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is commonly accessible online. Otherwise, call the property owner before you book the property. Remember that most properties list the maximum guest capacity, which often includes pull out couches in living rooms. You will need to determine what configuration is suitable for your vacation family.
• Some rentals allow pets, and others don't. Allowable types of family pet, size and breeds may be restricted, and additional charges may apply. Ask the host about your furry family members before booking.
• Are you visiting for a single attraction? If so, use a map search to find nearby rentals.
• Proper accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for those with limited mobility. Remember to confirm all necessary amenities are included before booking

Advice for your stay:

• Add the host's contact information to your smartphone. Take a copy of arrival/departure procedures.
• Hosts are there to help! Don't be shy to ask any questions during your stay.
• Keep your rental home locked while you are gone! Don't let burglars ruin your trip.
• To ensure that no damages are linked to your stay, inspect the rental for any problem areas when you arrive. E-mail the rental manager immediately to record any damages. If there is a dispute, having a record of concerns and contact attempts will be helpful.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like disagreeable vacationers bothering your peaceful neighborhood. Use the golden rule for best judgement. Happy residents may even recommend great local food and scenic spots you would've never otherwise known!
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Local residents can typically help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to book the best tours, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for bird watching?
• Just prior to departing, complete a final walk-through to make sure you did not forget anything. Make sure to check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden belongings. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Document the condition of the property at check-out. We recommend taking a video during your final walk-through.
• Leave a review! Hosts rely on great reviews to propel future bookings. They'll be much obliged for your review. Alternatively, if something went wrong, other vacationers will appreciate that you share your review and help them have the best future vacation. Please be fair with your feedback If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the owner could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded quickly to fix it.
