Getting the best rental experience:

Cost saving strategies:

• The earlier you can reserve a home, the easier your search will be. The best rental properties are reserved early. Booking your rental property six to twelve months before your travel dates is recommended. Holidays such as Christmas and Thanksgiving are excellent times to search for and reserve your rental property.
• June, July, and August are the most expensive months in coastal NC. Book your Havelock vacation home in Spring or Fall to enjoy beautiful weather while saving money and avoiding crowded roads, restaurants, and activities.
• Owners sometimes offer discounts for active duty military and veterans. Check with your property manager to see if special discounts are available for your family before you book.
• Property managers typically offer renters an option to add vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which will generally cost anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed days as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance might be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for additional information.
• Look for 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 grocery stores and visitor centers. In addition to great articles, visitors guide magazines have deals for local attractions, tours, restaurants, and shops.

• Choose a group leader, choose your vacation week, and choose a maximum budget.
• Note the number bedrooms and the bed configuration your group needs. Quaint and Affordable 3BR Beach Cottage - Near Beach Access has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Precise details about bedrooms and bed counts is normally accessible on booking pages. If you don't see them listed, call the property management company before reserving the rental. Note that most properties list maximum guest capacity, which frequently includes sofa beds in living rooms.
• Some properties allow pets, but others do not. Allowable types of dog or cat, weight and breeds may be restricted, and added costs may apply. Ask the property manager about pets before booking.
• If there's an individual Havelock destination you love, browse homes that are either near by, or those that cater to your requirements.
• Suitable accessibility can make or break a vacation for persons with disabilities. Confirm all required amenities are available before booking.

Know before you go:

• Take a copy of the host's contact number and entry/exit procedures for your rental home. We recommend storing the host's contact information in your smartphone.
• Hosts are there to help! Feel free to ask any questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Lock your rental property while you're away! Don't let thieves spoil your family vacation.
• At Check-in, make note of any damages to the rental property and immediately contact the owner. Keep records of all coorespondence.
• Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking policies can make a stay more pleasurable. You will increase your chance to make some new local friends, and resident neighbors are often a terrific resource to find the best local beaches and hangouts.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Local residents can typically help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to get the best breakfast in town, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for shopping?
• Just prior to departing, take a walk-through to make sure you didn't forget anything. Remember to check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden items. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Go through the rental a final time and look for damages to contents or the property itself. We recommend inspecting the property with the property manager whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the property manager isn't available, take video and pictures of the property to record its condition at check-out.
• After your trip, leave feedback! Hosts rely on excellent ratings to stimulate future bookings. They'll be much obliged for your feedback. Alternatively, if something went wrong, other vacationing families will be thankful you shared your review find their best vacation rental. Remember to be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the manager had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded quickly to solve it.
