Getting the best vacation home experience:

When to book a Havelock rental & When to go:

• Book your vacation home as soon as possible. Rental schedules usually open a year in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many families reserve their Summer rental homes during Thanksgiving and Christmas gatherings. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Summer time is high season in Emerald Isle. To book the most suitable vacation home for your budget, we suggest reserving in Spring or Fall. You'll benefit from lower rates, greater selection, warm weather and the absence of giant crowds at the beach and popular attractions. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Havelock vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation near the ocean? Thanksgiving and Christmas are great times to gather with friends and family at the beach.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective host whether your vacationing group qualifies for a discount.
• Property managers frequently offer renters an option to buy trip insurance. Trip insurance, which generally will cost 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed trip time as a result of medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel stay or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance can be a a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for program terms and fees.
• Often, management companies and vacation rental houses supply Havelock area visitors guides which often include money-saving deals, either offered independently by local companies, or through a relationship with the rental management company and the business itself. You can also find visitors guide and coupon books at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers.

Planning and picking the perfectrental home:

• Select a group lead, choose your trip dates, and select a budget.
• Note the number beds and the bed configuration your family needs. Whaley Good Livin’ has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed types is regularly accessible on booking pages. If you don't see them listed, email or call the property manager before reserving the home. Note that most listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which usually includes pull-out couches.
• Some rental properties allow pets, but some do not. Allowable types of pet, weight and breeds may be restricted, and added costs may apply. Ask the host about your furry family members before booking.
• If there's a certain Havelock attraction you love, look for properties that are either nearby, or those that cater to your needs.
• Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for persons with a disability. Make certain to ask about wheel chair entry, pool lifts and specialized equipment needs.

Additional considerations:

• Add the owner's contact info to your phone. Take a copy of arrival/departure procedures.
• Property managers are there to help! Feel free to ask questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Keep the property locked while you're gone! Don't let crooks ruin your vacation.
• To make certain damages aren't linked to your family's visit, inspect the property for any problem areas when you arrive. Make contact with the rental manager right away to document any issues. If there is a dispute about who is responsible, having a record of concerns and contact attempts will be valuable.
• Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking regulations can make a stay more pleasurable. Be a good neighbor. You'll increase your chance to make local friends, and resident neighbors are an excellent resource to find the best local beaches.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Local residents can often help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to get the best breakfast in town, have a great night out, or the best spots for BBQ?
• Double-check the rental property to confirm that you've packed everything at departure. Make sure to check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden belongings. Clean out the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Document the condition of the property at check-out. We recommend taking a video during your final walk-through.
• Did you have a wonderful stay? Most rental managers make it easy for customers to provide comments. If your property and/or host was terrific, they will likely appreciate your kind words. If anything was imperfect and they failed to correct it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make it a point as part of your comments.
