How to find the best vacation property experience:

When to book & When to go:

• In the Havelock area, The earlier your group can book a rental home, the easier your search will be. The most desirable vacation homes are booked early. Reserving your vacation home up to twelve months before your vacation dates is recommended. Holidays such as Christmas and Thanksgiving are excellent times to plan and book your rental property.
• June, July, and August are high season in the Havelock area. To get the best value, consider shifting your family's Havelock vacation to the Spring or Fall seasons.

Who wouldn't love a holiday near the ocean? Thanksgiving and Christmas are great times to gather with friends and family at your favorite beach.
• Some hosts and property managers offer special rates for veterans. It's always a good idea to check with your host or property manager to see if special discounts are available for your family.
• Management companies and individual rental owners typically offer their guests an option to add trip insurance. Trip insurance, which will generally cost anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed time as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather, as well as hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for program terms and fees.

You can also find Havelock visitors guide magazine and coupon books at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers.

• Property managers are great sources of help! Feel free to ask questions during your stay.
• Ensure you protect the rental owner (and your things!) by locking and securing the home while you are away, just like you would at home.
• To ensure that damages aren't linked to your family's stay, record any problem areas during check in. Get in touch with the rental manager right away to relay your findings. If there is a dispute about who is responsible, having the recorded issues and contact attempts will be helpful.
• Be respectful. Often, surrounding homes are filled by local residents. Respecting noise limits and parking regulations can make a stay significantly more pleasurable.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Residents can frequently help you find the best spots in town. 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?
• When it's time to leave, complete a walk-through to confirm you haven't leave anything behind. Remember to check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden treasure. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Leave a review! Property owners rely on great feedback to propel future reservations. They'll be much obliged for your feedback. Alternatively, if something went awry, other vacationers will appreciate that you share your experience and help them have the best future vacation. Remember to be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the host had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded reasonably to fix it.
