Strategies for getting the best Emerald Isle vacation property experience:

Get the most from your vacation rental budget:

• June, July, and August are the most expensive months in Emerald Isle. To get the best vacation home for your budget, we strongly suggest reserving in the Fall or Spring. You'll benefit from lower rates, better selection, gorgeous weather and the absence of giant crowds at your favorite Havelock restaurants and activities. Many vacationers use this method to find larger homes within budget, or to reserve an oceanfront vacation rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during the high season.
• Reserve your vacation rental as early as possible. Rental schedules generally become available a year in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many groups book their Summer rentals during Thanksgiving and Christmas get-togethers. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Property management companies sometimes offer promotional rates for active duty military and veterans. Check with your property manager to see if discounts are available for your family before you book.
• Property managers usually offer renters an option to buy trip insurance. Trip insurance, which commonly will cost between 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed trip time as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance might be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for program terms and fees.
• Look for your local visitors guide upon checking in. If your rental home doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local shops and fuel stations. In addition to great information, visitors guides contain deals for nearby shops and restaurants.

Selecting the perfect rental:

• First, have your group commit to date ranges and a maximum budget.
• Determine how many beds and what type of bedroom configuration you need. Oceanfront 1\/2 duplex located in the heart of Emerald Isle, NC has 4 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms.
• Specific information regarding bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is generally accessible on booking pages. Otherwise, email the property management company before reserving the rental. Note that most property listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which usually includes pull-out couches and bunk beds. You'll need to establish what is optimal for your vacation group.
• If there's an individual Havelock attraction you love, keep an eye out for homes that are either nearby, or those that cater especially to your needs.
• Proper accessibility can make or break a vacation for persons with disabilities. Confirm all necessary amenities are included before booking
• If your group is traveling with pets, you must book a pet-friendly property. Make sure to ask for information on breed, weight, and type restrictions. Often, property owners require additional pet deposits and fees.

During your stay:

• Put the owner's information in your smartphone.
• During arrival, record any issues with the property and immediately contact the owner. Record all coorespondence.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a garage door opener, television set or thermostat. Contact your property manager. They are there to help! A brief telephone call can prevent quite a few difficulties.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like loud visitors bothering your peace and quiet. Practice the golden rule for common sense. Happy residents may even recommend great local food and places you would've never otherwise known about!
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Local residents can usually help. Who better to ask where to find the best seashells, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for bird watching?
• Lock your rental home while you're out. Protect your property!
• Don't leave anything behind! Before you drive away, walk through the rental to confirm you've collected everything. Remember to check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden items. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Go through the property a final time and keep an eye out for any damage. We recommend inspecting the property with the host whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the manager is not available, remember to take photos of the property to record its condition.
• Did your family have a excellent time? Many rental management companies make it easy for vacationers to provide feedback. If your rental property and/or property management company was wonderful, they will likely appreciate your kind words. If anything was imperfect and they failed to correct it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make a note as part of your review.
