Strategies to get the best Morehead City vacation property experience:

How to get the best value:

• Book your vacation rental as early as possible. Rental schedules usually open a year in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many groups reserve their Summer vacation rentals during Thanksgiving and Christmas gatherings. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Book your vacation in the Fall or Spring shoulder seasons to enjoy warm weather while saving money and avoiding crowds.
• Property managers sometimes offer discounts for veterans. Ask your host or property manager if special offers are available for your family before you book.
• Management companies and individual rental owners usually offer guests an option to obtain vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which generally will cost anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed time as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for more information.
• Many rental management companies supply Morehead City area visitor guide magazines which often include special offers, either offered independently by local businesses, or through a partnership between the property management company and the business itself. You can also find Morehead City visitors guide magazine and coupon books at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers.

How to pick the perfect vacation home in the Morehead City area:

• Select vacation dates and spending budget.
• Note the number bedrooms and the configuration you need. Downtown Blue Manor 2 has 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms.
• Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts & types is commonly available on booking pages. If you don't see them listed, email or call the property management company before you book the property. Remember that most properties list maximum guest capacity, which usually includes pull out couches in living rooms. You will need to determine what configuration is optimal for your vacation.
• Some rental properties allow pets, but some don't. Acceptable types of pet, weight and breeds may be restricted, and additional fees may apply. Ask the owner about allowable breeds and types before booking.
• Are you looking for special amenities? Most websites include search filters for amenities.
• Proper accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for those with limited mobility. Confirm all required amenities are included before reserving a rental.

During your stay:

• Review arrival and departure procedures before leaving home. Take a printed copy, and save the directions to your phone.
• Hosts are there to help! Feel free to ask questions during your stay.
• Ensure you protect the property owner (and your things!) by locking the rental when you are away, just like you would at home.
• To ensure that damages are not attributed to your stay, note any problem areas during check in. text the property manager immediately to report any issues. If there is a dispute, having a record of concerns and contact attempts will be helpful.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like obnoxious visitors disrupting your life at home. Practice the golden rule for common sense. Happy residents may even recommend great restaurants and places you would have never otherwise known!
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Neighbors can usually help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to order delicious takeout, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for BBQ?
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before you drive away, walk through the rental property to make sure you've collected all personal belongings. Remember to check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden belongings. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Please make sure to walk through the property one final time and scan for damages to contents or the property itself. We advise walking through with the host whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the manager is not available, remember to take pictures of the property to record its condition.
• Did your family have a great time? Most rental websites make it easy for customers to provide feedback. If your property and/or property management company was fantastic, they would love to hear it. If anything was wrong and they failed to correct 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.
