Tips and Tricks for getting the best vacation property experience:

Get the most from your rental budget:

• June, July, and August are high season in Atlantic Beach. To get the best rental within your budget, we recommend booking in Fall or Spring months. You'll benefit from lower rates, better selection, warm weather and the absence of large crowds at popular attractions and restaurants. Many vacationers use this method to find larger homes within budget, or to book a beach front rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during June, July, and August. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Havelock vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday on the coast? Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with friends and family at your favorite beach.
• The earlier you can book a vacation home, the better your selection will be. The best properties are booked very early. Reserving your rental property six to twelve months before your vacation is recommended. Christmas, Thanksgiving and New Years Eve are excellent times to search for and reserve your rental property.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property manager whether your family qualifies for a discount.
• Property managers often offer guests an option to purchase trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which normally costs between 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any days missed as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as evacuation costs or charges, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance can be a a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for specifics.
• Look for your local visitors guide when you check-in. If your rental home doesn't have one, you can find them at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers. In addition to great local stories, visitors guide magazines contain offers and deals for local tours and attractions.

How to pick the best rental home in the Havelock area:

• Start by choosing your trip dates and a max budget.
• Note the number bedrooms and the bed configuration your group needs. The Beach Bunker-Renovated Vintage Coastal Retreat with Rooftop Deck & Golf Cart has 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms.
• Specific details about bedrooms and bed counts is almost always accessible online. Otherwise, contact the host before you book the home. Note that most properties list the maximum guest capacity, which usually includes pull out couches in living rooms.
• Visiting for a single attraction or event? If so, use a map search to find nearby properties.
• Suitable accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for the less-mobile. .
• If your family is bringing pets, search for a pet-friendly property. Request details on breed, size, and type restrictions. Some property managers require additional pet deposits and fees.

Tips for your stay:

• Be sure you get the property manager's phone number and check in/check out procedures for your rental property.
• Make a record of any damages to the rental upon arrival, and immediately contact the owner. We specifically recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain time stamps that are helpful if damages are attributed to your stay.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a garage door opener, stereo or kitchen appliance. Contact your property manager. They are there to help! A brief text message prevents many issues.
• Respect the neighborhood. Frequently, adjacent homes are occupied by local residents. Respecting quiet hours and parking policies can make a stay significantly more pleasurable.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Local residents can typically help. Who better to ask where to get the best breakfast in town, have a great night out, or the best spots for BBQ?
• Ensure you protect the property owner (and your stuff!) by locking the property while you are away, just like you would at home.
• When it's time to leave, complete a final walk-through to confirm you did not forget anything. Re-check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden items. Clean the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Did you have a wonderful time? Many rental management companies make it easy for clients to provide comments. If your rental property and/or host was wonderful, they always love to hear your praise. If anything was wrong 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 feedback.
