Tips and Tricks to get the best Crystal Coast rental experience:

Sticking to a rental home budget:

• Book your rental 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 vacations during Winter holiday gatherings. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Summer is high season in Atlantic Beach. Booking in Spring or Fall is a great way to save money on your rental home. Rental rates are lower, and you'll find a larger selection of desirable properties. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Crystal Coast 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.
• Owners sometimes offer special rates for active duty military and veterans. Remember to ask your property manager if rate reductions are available for your family before you book.
• Property management companies usually offer their guests an option to obtain vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which normally will cost between 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed trip time as a result of medical-related issues or weather, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel stay or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for more information.
• Many property management companies and vacation rental houses supply Crystal Coast area visitor guides that include special offers, either offered independently by local businesses, or by way of a partnership between the property 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 choosing a perfect Crystal Coast rental home:

• Start by selecting a vacation week and a spending budget.
• Note the number bedrooms and the bed configuration your group requires. License to Chill - Atlantic Beach, ~NC~ has 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts is usually available on booking pages. If not, email or call the property manager before you reserve the property. Remember that most property listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which often includes sofa beds in living rooms. You will need to determine which bed configuration is best for your trip.
• Are you bringing the family pet? Although a number of vacation homes allow pets or animals, guidelines and costs vary per property. Allowable pet type, breed, and size are often limited. Remember to ask the property manager before booking, and study your agreement! Pet fees or applied to your agreement.
• Are you looking for specific amenities? Most rental websites include amenity lists and search filters. Use these to your advantage to find the perfect rental home.
• Suitable accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for guests with disabilities. .

Some things to know before you go:

• Review check in & check out procedures before leaving home. Take a printed copy, and save the directions to your phone.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a garage door opener, stereo or WIFI setup. Contact your host. They are there to help! A brief call can prevent a lot of difficulties.
• Lock your vacation home while you're away. Protect your property!
• To ensure that damages aren't attributed to your stay, inspect for any problem areas when you arrive. Get in touch with the property manager immediately to report any issues. If there is a dispute, having the recorded concerns and contact attempts will be useful.
• Respecting quiet hours and parking policies can make a stay significantly more pleasurable. Be a good neighbor. You'll magnify your chance to make some new local friends, and resident neighbors are an incredible source for finding the best local beaches and restaurants.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Locals can frequently help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to get the best seafood, have a great night out, or the best spots for crabbing?
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before you drive away, walk through the rental to confirm you've collected everything. Re-check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden treasure. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Go through the property one final time and scan for damages to contents or the property itself. We suggest walking through with the host whenever you can. If the manager is not available, take pictures of the rental to record its condition at check-out.
• Did your family have a terrific stay? Most rental managers make it easy for travelers to provide feedback. If your rental property and/or property management company was terrific, they would love to hear about it. 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 a note as part of your review.
