How to book the best Havelock vacation rental experience:

Find your perfect rental:

• June, July, and August are the most expensive months in coastal NC. To get the best value, consider changing your group's trip dates to the Spring or Fall seasons. May, September, and even October offer great temperatures, less crowded beaches, and greatly reduced traffic. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Havelock vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday near the ocean? Thanksgiving and Christmas are great times to gather with family and friends at the beach.
• Reserve your rental as early as possible. Rental schedules generally open 12 months in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many groups book their Summer rental homes during Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years Eve get-togethers. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Some property managers offer special rates for active duty military and veterans. Check with your property manager to see if special offers are available for your family before you book.
• Property management companies typically offer renters an option to obtain vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which normally costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed trip time as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance can be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for details.
• Look for your local Havelock visitors guide when you check-in. If your rental doesn't have one, you can find them at local shops and visitor centers. In addition to great articles, visitors guides contain money saving offers on nearby tours, shops, and attractions.

How to choose the perfect rental home in Atlantic Beach:

• Start by choosing a vacation week and a maximum budget.
• Decide how many bedrooms and the bed configuration your family needs. Spacious 3 story 3BR\/3BA condo in Atlantic Beach steps from private beach access has 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our vacation rental search.
• Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts is usually available on booking websites. Otherwise, email or call the property owner before booking the property. Note that most property listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which often includes sofa beds and bunks.
• If there's an individual Havelock beach you are crazy about, look for homes that are either near by, or those that cater to your desires.
• Suitable accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for guests with disabilities. Remember to confirm all required amenities are available before reserving a rental
• If your group is traveling with pets, search for a pet-friendly property. Request details on breed, weight, and type restrictions. Some property owners charge pet deposits and fees.

More considerations for your visit:

• Store the manager's information in your smartphone and wallet.
• To make sure damages aren't attributed to your family's visit, record any problem areas during check in. E-mail the host immediately to relay any pre-existing damages. If there is a dispute, having the recorded issues and contact attempts will be useful.
• Property managers are available to help! Don't be shy to ask any questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Don't forget to respect your neighbors. Often times, adjacent homes are filled by local residents. Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking rules reduces conflict and allows everyone to enjoy their day.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Local residents can often help. Who better to ask where to order the best nachos, have a great night out, or the best spots for shopping?
• Keep the property locked while you are gone! Don't let thieves ruin your trip.
• Don't leave anything behind! Before you drive away, take a walk through the rental to confirm you've collected everything. Remember to check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden belongings. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Document the condition of the property at check-out. We recommend taking a video during your final walk-through.
• After your trip, leave feedback! Property owners rely on great ratings to drive more bookings. They'll be grateful for your feedback. Alternatively, if something went awry, other families will be thankful you shared your experience find their best vacation rental. Please be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the owner could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded reasonably to remedy it.
