Getting the best vacation property experience:

How to get the best rental home value:

• In the Morehead City area, The sooner your group can reserve a vacation rental, the easier your search will be. The most desirable vacation homes are booked early. Booking your vacation rental up to 12 months before your vacation dates is recommended. Holidays such as Christmas and Thanksgiving are excellent times to plan and reserve your rental property.
• To get the best value, try shifting your family's Morehead City vacation dates to the Spring or Fall months. May, September, and even October offer warm temperatures, , and reduced traffic. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Morehead City vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation near the ocean? Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with family and friends at your favorite beach.
• Property managers sometimes offer discounts for veterans and active duty military. It's always a good idea to check with your host or property manager to see if special offers are available for your group.
• Management companies and individual rental owners usually offer customers an option to add vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which usually will cost you between 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed trip time as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as ensuing additional evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for program terms and fees.
• Find a copy of your local Morehead City area magazine upon checking in. If your rental home doesn't have one, you can find them at local shops and visitor centers. In addition to great local stories, visitor guides contain deals for local accommodations, tours and attractions.

Choosing the perfect vacation home:

• Choose a group leader, select your dates, and select a max budget.
• Decide how many beds and what type of bedroom configuration your group requires. Colorful Emerald Isle Home: Just Steps to Beach! has 4 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Precise information about bedrooms and bed counts & types is generally available on booking websites. If not, contact the property manager before booking the vacation home. Note that most properties list the max. guest capacity, which typically includes sofa beds in living rooms.
• Some rentals allow pets, but others don't. Acceptable types of pet, weight and breeds may be restricted, and additional fees may apply. Ask your host about allowable pet guidelines before booking.
• Is your group looking for special amenities? Most websites include search filters with amenity lists.
• Suitable accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for persons with a disability. Confirm all required amenities are available and included before reserving a rental.

Advice for a wonderful stay:

• We recommend storing the manager's information in your smartphone and wallet.
• Property managers are there to help! Don't be shy to ask any questions during your stay.
• Protect the rental owner (and your things!) by locking the property while you are away, just like you would back home.
• Upon check-in, note any damages to the property and immediately contact the host. Record all coorespondence.
• Be respectful of your neighbors. Often, adjacent homes are occupied by local residents. Respecting quiet hours and parking policies can make a stay significantly more pleasurable.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Residents can often help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to grab the best tacos, have a great night out, or the best spots for BBQ?
• Don't leave anything behind! Before you drive away, walk through the property to reconfirm you've collected all personal belongings. Make sure to check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden items. Clean out 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.
• Did your family have a terrific time? Many rental websites make it easy for travelers to provide comments. If your rental and/or host was wonderful, they will likely appreciate your kind words. If anything was amiss and they failed to address it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make it a point as part of your feedback.
