After a pretty day at the beach, rinse off in our warm outdoor shower, and head to the front or back porch for a mojito. You can also cool off in our 9x13 private salt water plunge pool. Then grab the bicycles and ride the new 11 mile bicycle path to dozens of eateries, bars, for a hike just up the road in Emerald Woods, to the grocery store, ice cream shop and stores.

Tips to get the best rental experience:

How to get the best rental value:

• To book the best rental within your budget, we recommend reserving in Fall or Spring months. You'll benefit from lower rates, greater selection, warm weather and the absence of giant crowds at your favorite Havelock restaurants and activities. Many vacationers use this strategy to reserve larger homes, or to reserve an oceanfront rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during the high season. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Havelock vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation on the coast? Thanksgiving and Christmas are great times to gather with friends and family at the beach.
• Book your rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules often become available 12 months in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many families book their Summer vacations during Winter holiday gatherings. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Some owners offer discounts for veterans. Check with your property manager to see if special offers are available for your family.
• Management companies and individual rental owners often offer guests an option to obtain trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which normally costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed vacation time as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for specifics.
• Often, management companies supply Havelock area visitor guide magazines which include special offers, either offered directly by local companies, or through a relationship with the property management company and the business itself. You can also find Havelock area magazine and coupon books at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers.

Filter your search:

• Start by selecting your a vacation week and a maximum budget.
• Note the number beds and the configuration your family requires. Surfari, beautiful home on the Crystal Coast has 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms.
• Specific information about bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is generally available on booking pages. Otherwise, call the property manager before booking your rental. Remember that most property listings specify the max. guest capacity, which frequently includes pull-out couches and bunk beds. You will need to determine what is right for your trip.
• If there's a certain Havelock beach you long to visit, look for homes that are either close by, or those that cater especially to your desires.
• Proper accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for persons with disabilities. Confirm all necessary amenities are included before reserving a rental.
• If your family is bringing pets, you must book a rental that allows animals. Make sure to ask for information on breed, size, and type requirements. Usually, property managers charge additional pet fees.

Advice for a wonderful stay:

• Put the host's contact information in your smartphone.
• During check-in, document any damages to the property and immediately contact the host. Keep records of all correspondence in case a dispute arises.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a garage door opener, television set or appliance. Contact your property manager. They are there to help! A brief telephone call can prevent a lot of concerns.
• Respect your neighbors. Frequently, surrounding homes are occupied by local residents. Respecting noise limits and parking rules is the right thing to do.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Neighbors can frequently point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to charter a fishing boat, have a great night out, or the best spots for shopping?
• Protect the rental owner (and your stuff!) by keeping the rental locked up when you are away, just like you would back home.
• Re-check the vacation property to confirm that you've packed all personal items at check-out. Remember to check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden items. Clean the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Did your family have a fantastic stay? Many rental home management companies make it easy for customers to provide feedback. If your rental and/or property manager was terrific, they would love to hear it. If anything was amiss and they failed to fix it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make it a point as part of your review.
