Tricks and tips to get the very best rental experience:

How to get the best rental value:

• June, July, and August are the most expensive months along the coast of NC. To book the best rental home within your budget, we highly recommend booking in Fall or Spring months. You'll benefit from lower rental rates, better selection, gorgeous weather and the absence of large crowds at popular Havelock attractions and restaurants. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Havelock vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday on the coast? Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with friends and family at your favorite beach.
• In the Havelock area, The earlier your group can reserve a vacation rental, the better your selection will be. The best vacation homes are reserved very early. Reserving your rental property six to twelve months before your vacation dates is recommended. Winter holidays are excellent times to search for and reserve your rental property.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property owner or host whether your vacationing group qualifies for a special rate.
• Property managers typically offer guests an option to obtain vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which normally will cost 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed vacation time as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for details.
• Find a copy of your local Havelock visitors guide when you arrive at the rental property. If your rental home doesn't have one, you can find them at local shops and visitor centers. In addition to great information, visitor guides contain deals for nearby shops and restaurants.

Narrow your rental Search:

• Select your vacation dates and max budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and the bed configuration your family requires. Sound of the Sea 516W - 3BR Condo has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts is regularly accessible on booking websites. Otherwise, reach out to the property manager before reserving your rental. Note that most listings specify the max. guest capacity, which frequently includes sofa beds and bunks. You will need to determine what bed configuration is suitable for your vacation family.
• Visiting for a single attraction or event? If so, use a map search to locate nearby properties.
• Proper accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for persons with a disability. Make certain to ask about specialized equipment and wheel chair accessibility.
• If your family is vacationing with pets, you must book a pet-friendly property. Request specifics on breed, size, and type restrictions. Usually, hosts charge additional pet fees.

More considerations:

• Review check in & check out procedures before leaving home. Take a printed copy, and save the instructions to your phone.
• To make sure damages are not linked to your visit, make a record of any problem areas upon check in. Contact the rental manager right away to document any pre-existing damages. If there is a dispute, having the recorded concerns and contact attempts will be useful.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a hot tub, intercom or washer/dryer. Contact your owner. They are there to help! A brief call can prevent many concerns.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like obnoxious visitors bothering your peaceful home. Employ the golden rule for common sense. If they like you, locals might even recommend great local food and scenic spots you would've never otherwise known!
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Neighbors can often help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to enjoy a steak with a view, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fine dining?
• Keep the property locked while you are gone! Don't let crooks spoil your trip.
• Re-check every room of the rental property to confirm that you've packed all belongings on check-out day. Remember to check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden belongings. Clean the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Did your group have a great stay? Many rental management companies make it easy for customers to provide comments. If your property and/or property management company was wonderful, they would love to hear it. If anything was amiss and they failed to address it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make it a point as part of your comments.
