Tips and Tricks to get the very best Beaufort, NC vacation home experience:

When to visit & When to book:

• In the Beaufort, NC area, The sooner your group can book a rental home, the better your selection will be. The most desirable properties are booked very early. Reserving your rental property six to twelve months before your vacation is recommended. Winter holidays are excellent times to search for and book your rental home.
• Summer is the most expensive season in coastal NC. Reserve your rental property in Fall or Spring months to enjoy warm weather while saving money and avoiding crowds. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, or to book an oceanfront vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable during the Summer months.
• Some owners offer special rates for active duty military and veterans. Make sure to check with your property manager to see if special offers are available for your group before you book.
• Booking websites frequently offer customers an option to add vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which normally costs 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed vacation time as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance can be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for additional information.

• Ensure you protect the rental owner (and your stuff!) by keeping the rental locked up while you are gone, just like you would back home.
• Note any issues with the property upon arrival, and immediately contact the property manager. We specifically recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain built-in time stamps that are valuable if a dispute arises.

• Did your group have a great vacation? Many rental websites make it easy for customers to provide comments. If your rental property and/or property manager was fantastic, they will likely appreciate your kind words. If anything was imperfect and they failed to address it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make a note as part of your review.
