Tips to get the best Havelock vacation rental experience:

When to visit & When to book:

• June, July, and August are the most expensive months in coastal NC. To find the largest vacation home within budget, we suggest reserving in Fall or Spring months. You'll enjoy lower rental rates, greater selection, warm weather and the absence of large crowds at popular attractions and restaurants.
• The earlier your group can book a vacation home, the better your selection will be. The best vacation homes are booked very early. Reserving your rental property six to twelve months before your vacation is recommended. Holiday gatherings are excellent times to search for and book your vacation home.
• Some property managers offer promotional rates for active duty military and veterans. Ask your host or property manager if special discounts are available for your group.
• Property managers usually offer renters an option to purchase vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which generally will cost between 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any days missed as a result of medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for more information.
• Often, property management companies and vacation rental houses supply Havelock area visitor guides which will include coupons, either offered independently by local businesses, or through a relationship between the rental management company and the business itself. You can also find visitors guide and coupon books at local shops and grocery stores.

Choosing and booking the best Havelock vacation home:

• Start by choosing trip dates and a maximum budget.
• Note the number bedrooms and the bed configuration you need. Ocean Idlers, Almost Oceanfront Duplex in Emerald Isle, NC! has 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our search.
• Specific details about bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is usually available on booking websites. If not, contact the host before reserving the vacation home. Note that most listings specify the max. guest capacity, which frequently includes sofa beds in living rooms. You'll need to establish which bed configuration is optimal for your vacation family.
• Visiting for a single attraction or event? Use a map search to locate nearby rentals.
• Appropriate accessibility can make or break a vacation for guests that require the use of a wheelchair. Remember to confirm all necessary amenities are available before reserving a rental
• If your family is bringing pets, you'll need to book a property that allows animals. Make sure to ask for information on breed, weight, and type requirements. Usually, hosts require additional pet deposits and fees.

During your stay:

• Get the property manager's phone number and check in/check out procedures for your rental property. Put the host's contact information in your smartphone and wallet.
• At Check-in, document any damages to the rental property and immediately contact the property manager. Record all coorespondence.
• Property managers are there to help! Don't be shy to ask any questions during your stay.
• Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking restrictions can make a stay more pleasurable. You'll magnify your chance to make local friends, and resident neighbors are often a great source for finding the best local scenic spots.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Neighbors can usually point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to take kids for a treat, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for BBQ?
• Protect the rental owner (and your stuff!) by locking and securing the home when you are gone, just like you would at home.
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before departing, walk through the rental property to confirm you've collected all belongings. Re-check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden treasure. Clean the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Did your family have a wonderful vacation? Many rental websites make it easy for travelers to provide reviews. If your rental and/or property manager was wonderful, they will likely appreciate your kind words. If anything was out of order and they failed to fix it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make it a point as part of your comments.
