Our top Vacation rental tips and tricks:

When to book & When to go:

• Book your vacation rental as early as possible. Rental schedules often become available twelve months in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many families book their Summer rentals during Thanksgiving and Christmas gatherings. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• June, July, and August are the most expensive months in coastal NC. To get the most suitable vacation home for your budget, we highly recommend reserving in Fall or Spring. You'll enjoy lower rates, greater selection, warm weather and the absence of large crowds at popular Morehead City attractions and restaurants. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, or to reserve a beach front vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable during June, July, and August.
• Hosts sometimes offer promotional rates for veterans and active duty military. Ask your host or property manager if special offers are available for your group before you book.
• Property managers typically offer renters an option to buy vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any days missed as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather, as well as hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance might be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for additional information.
• Find a copy of your local Morehead City visitors guide magazine upon arrival. If your rental property doesn't have one, you can find them at local shops and visitor centers. In addition to great articles, visitor guide magazines have coupons for nearby shops and restaurants.

Selecting and booking your prefectrental home:

• Start by selecting your vacation dates and a maximum budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and the configuration your family needs. Downtown Blue Manor 1 has 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms.
• Precise details about bedrooms and bed counts is almost always available on booking websites. If they are not listed, email or call the host before you reserve your rental. Note that most properties list maximum guest capacity, which typically includes sofa beds and bunks. You will need to determine what bed configuration is optimal for your vacation group.
• If your family is vacationing with pets, search for a pet-friendly property. Request specifics on breed, size, and type requirements. Some property managers charge pet deposits and fees.
• If there's a specific Morehead City beach you are crazy about, browse rentals that are either close by, or those that cater especially to your desires.
• Suitable accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for persons with a disability. Make certain to ask about specialized equipment and wheel chair accessibility.

Have a fantastic stay:

• We recommend storing the owner's information in your smartphone.
• Hosts are there to help! Feel free to ask questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Lock your rental home while you are out. Protect the owner's property and your things!
• Upon arrival, note any damages to the property and immediately alert the owner. Record all coorespondence.
• Respecting quiet hours and parking restrictions can make a stay significantly more pleasurable. Be a good neighbor. You'll increase your chance to make some new local friends, and resident neighbors are often a great resource to find the best local beaches and hangouts.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Neighbors can frequently help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to enjoy a steak with a view, have a great night out, or the best spots for BBQ?
• Don't leave anything behind! Before departing, walk through the property to confirm you've collected all personal items. Make sure to check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden treasure. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Go through the property a final time and look for any damage. We suggest inspecting the property with the host whenever you can. If the property manager isn't available, ensure that you take video and pictures of the property to record its condition.
• Did your family have a excellent vacation? Many rental websites make it easy for clients to provide reviews. If your property and/or property manager was great, they would love to hear it. If anything was amiss and they failed to fix it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make it a point as part of your review.
