Tips and Tricks to get the optimal vacation rental experience:

When to visit Emerald Isle & When to reserve a Emerald Isle rental home:

• June, July, and August are the most expensive months in Emerald Isle. Reserve your Morehead City rental property in Fall or Spring months to get the benefit of warm weather while saving money and avoiding crowds.
• The sooner you can reserve a vacation home, the easier your search will be. The best rental properties are booked early. Reserving your vacation rental six - twelve months before your vacation is recommended. Holiday gatherings are excellent times to plan and book your rental.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective vacation rental company or host whether your family qualifies for a price reduction or discount.
• Booking websites frequently offer customers an option to obtain trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which commonly will cost you anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed vacation time as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance might be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for program terms and fees.
• Many management companies supply Morehead City area visitor guide magazines which will include coupons, either offered independently by local companies, or through a relationship between the rental management company and the business itself. You can also find Morehead City visitors guide magazine and coupon books at local shops and grocery stores.

Use filters to search efficiently:

• Start by having your group agree to trip dates and a spending budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and what type of bedroom configuration you need. Ocean Idlers, Almost Oceanfront Duplex in Emerald Isle, NC! has 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is usually available online. Otherwise, contact the property owner before you book the rental. Remember that most properties list maximum guest capacity, which typically includes sofa beds in living rooms.
• Are you visiting for a single event? Try a map search to browse nearby properties.
• Suitable accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for those with limited mobility. .
• Are you traveling with furry, four-legged family members? Many vacation homes allow animals, but guidelines and restrictions apply. Allowable pet type, breed, and size are often limited. Ask your property manager before booking, and study your agreement! Pet fees or costs may be applied to your agreement.

Additional considerations:

• Review check in & check out procedures before leaving home. Save the instructions to your phone, and take a printed copy.
• Record any issues with the property upon arrival, and immediately send them to the host. We especially recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain time stamps that can be helpful if a dispute is filed.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a hot tub, stereo or washer/dryer. Contact your owner. They are there to help! A brief phone call prevents a lot of problems.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like unpleasant visitors disrupting your peaceful neighborhood. Practice the golden rule for common sense. If they like you, locals might even recommend great local food and attractions you would've never otherwise known about!
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Residents can usually point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to see a beautiful sunrise or sunset, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for BBQ?
• Ensure you protect the property owner (and your stuff!) by locking the property when you are away, just like you would back home.
• Double-check the property to confirm that you've packed everything on check-out day. Remember to check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden items. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Go through the rental a final time and keep an eye out for damages to contents or the property itself. We recommend walking through with the property manager whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the property manager isn't available, take video and pictures of the property to record its condition at check-out.
• Did your group have a great stay? Most vacation rental websites make it easy for clients to provide comments. If your property and/or host was great, they would love to hear it. If anything was wrong and they failed to fix it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make it a point as part of your comments.
