Tricks and tips to get the very best vacation rental experience:

When to visit Emerald Isle & When to book:

• Booking your vacation rental in Fall or Spring is an excellent way to save money on your vacation home. Rates are lower, and you'll find a better selection of desirable properties. Many vacationers use this strategy to reserve larger homes, or to reserve a beach front vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during the Summer months.
• The sooner your group can book a rental home, the easier your search will be. The best vacation rentals are booked very early. Booking your rental property six - twelve months before your vacation dates is recommended. Winter holidays are excellent times to search for and book your vacation rental.
• Property managers sometimes offer special rates for active duty military and veterans. Remember to ask your property manager if special offers are available for your group before you book.
• Property managers typically offer their guests an option to obtain vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which will generally cost anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed days as a result of medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for program terms and fees.
• Find a copy of your local Morehead City area magazine upon arrival. If your rental property doesn't have one, you can find them at local shops and fuel stations. In addition to great local stories, travel guide magazines have money saving offers on nearby accommodations, restaurants and tours.

Make a plan and choose the rightrental home:

• Choose vacation dates and maximum budget.
• Decide how many bedrooms and the configuration your group requires. Pool - Ocean Front - Dogs OK! has 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms.
• Precise information about bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is almost always accessible online. If you don't see them listed, contact the property owner before you reserve the rental. Note that most listings specify maximum guest capacity, which often includes pull-out couches. You will need to work out what configuration is optimal for your vacation family.
• Is your family looking for special amenities? Most rental search websites include search filters for amenities.
• Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for guests with disabilities. .
• Some rentals allow pets, but others do not. Acceptable types of pet, size and breeds may be restricted, and added charges may apply. Ask the host about pets before booking.

More tips for your visit:

• Add the property manager's contact information to your phone. Understand and take a copy of check in/check out procedures.
• Upon check-in, note any issues with the property and immediately alert the owner. Keep records of all coorespondence.
• Hosts are great sources of help! Don't be shy to ask any questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like unpleasant visitors disrupting your peace and quiet. Employ the golden rule for best judgement. If they like you, locals might even recommend great restaurants and attractions you would have never otherwise known!
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Residents can frequently help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to enjoy a steak with a view, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for bird watching?
• Protect the property owner (and your things!) by locking the rental when you are gone, just like you would at home.
• Re-check every room of the property to confirm that you've packed everything on check-out day. Remember to check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden belongings. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Go through the property one final time and scan for any damage. We recommend walking through with the host whenever possible. If the host isn't available, ensure that you take video and pictures of the property to record its condition.
• Remember to leave a review! Hosts rely on good reviews to propel more bookings. They'll be grateful for your review. Alternatively, if something wasn't as described, other vacationing families will will be grateful for your experience and help them have the best future vacation. Be fair with your review. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the property manager had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded expeditiously to remedy it.
