Our top Emerald Isle vacation rental tips:

Money saving strategies:

• The earlier your group can book a rental home, the easier your search will be. The best vacation homes are booked very early. Booking your vacation rental six to twelve months before your vacation dates is recommended. Holidays such as Christmas and Thanksgiving are excellent times to plan and reserve your vacation home.
• Summer is the most expensive season in coastal NC. Reserve your Havelock vacation home in Spring or Fall to enjoy beautiful weather while saving money and avoiding crowds. Many vacationers use this method to find larger homes within budget, or to book an oceanfront vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable during June, July, and August.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property manager if your vacationing group qualifies for a price reduction.
• Property management companies usually offer renters an option to purchase vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which costs 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed time as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as ensuing additional evacuation costs or charges, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for details.
• Often, management companies and vacation rental houses supply Havelock area visitors guides that include coupons, either offered directly by local businesses, or through a relationship between the management company and the business itself. You can also find visitors guide and coupon books at local gas stations and shopping centers.

Choosing and booking the perfect Havelock vacation home:

• Choose dates and budget.
• Note the number bedrooms and what type of bedroom configuration your family needs. Cents and Cents-Ability -- Cozy Beach Getaway! has 2 bedrooms and 1 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our vacation rental search.
• Specific details about bedrooms and bed counts is commonly available online. If you don't see them listed, contact the property manager before reserving the rental. Note that most listings specify maximum guest capacity, which typically includes pull out couches in living rooms. You will need to establish what is right for your vacation group.
• If your family is bringing pets, search for a pet-friendly vacation rental. Request details on breed, weight, and type requirements. Often, hosts require additional pet deposits and fees.
• If there's an individual Havelock attraction you long to visit, browse rentals that are either nearby, or those that cater especially to your desires.
• Proper accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for guests with disabilities. .

More tips for your visit:

• Add the owner's phone number to your smartphone. Understand and take a copy of arrival/departure procedures.
• Hosts are available to help! Don't be shy to ask any questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Ensure you protect the rental owner (and your things!) by locking the property when you are out, just like you would back home.
• Document any damages to the property upon arrival, and immediately contact the owner. We especially recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain time stamps that can be helpful if there is a dispute.
• Be a good neighbor. Often times, surrounding homes are occupied by local residents. Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking policies is the right thing to do.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Locals can often help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to see a beautiful sunrise or sunset, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for crabbing?
• On check-out day, take a final walk-through to make sure you have not forget any personal items. Re-check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden belongings. Clean out the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Document the condition of the property at check-out. We recommend taking a video during your final walk-through.
• Remember to leave a review! Hosts rely on excellent feedback to inspire future reservations. They'll be grateful for your review. Alternatively, if something went awry, other families will appreciate that you share your review find their best vacation rental. Remember to be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the property manager could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded quickly to remedy it.
