Ready for memorable days with ideal endings? It happens at Sunset Key!

Not feeling the beach today? Hang out at the pool in the backyard instead while something delicious cooks on the poolside grille, or read your favorite book in the sunroom overlooking the Sound. No need to disagree on what to watch, there are 8 Roku HDTVs and complimentary high-speed WiFi (even at the pool!), just log in to your favorite streaming app and go. In the media room, where you’ll find the pull-out couch, the TV has 60 FPS for you gamers. It looks like a long way to the top floor, but that’s what the elevator is for.

How to get the best Emerald Isle vacation property experience:

When to visit & When to book:

• Book your rental as soon 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 vacation rentals during holiday gatherings. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Summertime is the most expensive season in Emerald Isle. Booking your Morehead City vacation rental in the Fall or Spring is our favorite way to save money on your vacation home. Rates are lower, and you'll find a better selection of suitable homes. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Morehead City vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday near the ocean? Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with family and friends at your favorite beach.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property manager or host whether your vacationing group qualifies for a price reduction or discount.
• Booking websites usually offer customers an option to purchase vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which commonly will cost 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed vacation 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 might be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for more information.
• Look for your local Morehead City area magazine upon checking in. If your rental doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local shops and visitor centers. In addition to great information, visitors guide magazines have deals for local tours and attractions.

How to choose and book a perfectrental home:

• Select your dates and max budget.
• Determine how many beds and the bed configuration your family needs. Sunsets on the Sound and Poolside Luxury at the Jewel of Emerald Isle! has 5 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms.
• Precise information about bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is usually accessible online. If not, call the host before you book the home. Note that most properties list maximum guest capacity, which typically includes sofa beds in living rooms. You will need to work out what configuration is right for your vacation.
• Some rentals allow pets, but some don't. Allowable types of family pet, size and breeds may be restricted, and additional charges may apply. Ask the property manager about your furry family members before booking.
• Are you visiting for a single attraction or event? If so, use a map search to browse nearby rentals.
• Proper accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for the less-mobile. Make certain to ask about wheel chair accessibility, pool lifts and specialized equipment needs.

More tips for your stay:

• Get the owner's contact number and arrival/departure procedures for your rental property.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a garage door opener, elevator or appliance. Contact your host. They are there to help! A brief call can prevent many problems.
• Protect the property owner (and your things!) by locking and securing the home when you are gone, just like you would back home.
• To make certain that damages are not attributed to your family's stay, inspect the rental for any problem areas during check in. Speak to the property manager immediately to report any issues. If there is a dispute about who is responsible, having a record of problems and contact attempts will be useful.
• Don't forget to respect your neighbors. Often times, nearby homes are occupied by permanent residents. Respecting quiet hours and parking policies can make a stay significantly more pleasurable.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Locals can typically help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to find the best seashells, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for crabbing?
• Upon check-out, complete a final walk-through to confirm you didn't leave anything behind. Make sure to check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden items. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Please make sure to walk through the property one final time and look for damages to contents or the property itself. We advise inspecting the property with the property manager whenever possible. If the manager is not available, remember to take video of the property to record its condition.
• Did your family have a wonderful vacation? Many rental websites make it easy for travelers to provide reviews. If your rental property and/or property management company was terrific, they will likely appreciate your kind words. If anything was imperfect and they failed to correct it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make it a point as part of your feedback.
