How to book the best vacation home experience:

Money saving strategies:

• In the Crystal Coast area, The earlier you can book a vacation home, the better your selection will be. The most desirable properties are reserved early. Booking your vacation property six - twelve months before your travel dates is recommended. Winter holidays are excellent times to plan and reserve your vacation home.
• June, July, and August are the most expensive months in coastal NC. To find the best rental for your budget, we suggest reserving in the Fall or Spring shoulder seasons. You'll enjoy lower rates, greater selection, warm weather and the absence of giant crowds at the beach and popular Crystal Coast attractions.
• Property managers sometimes offer special rates for veterans. Check with your host or property manager to see if rate reductions are available for your family.
• Property managers frequently offer renters an option to buy trip insurance. Trip insurance, which costs between 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed time as a result of medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance can be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for details.
• Many property management companies supply Crystal Coast area visitors guides that include money-saving offers, either offered independently by local businesses, or through a relationship between the management company and the business itself. You can also find Crystal Coast visitors guide magazine and coupon books at local shops and grocery stores.

Filter your rental search:

• First and foremost, have your family commit to trip dates and a maximum budget.
• Note the number beds and the bed configuration you need. Ocean View Condo - Oceanside Beach Retreat has 1 bedrooms and 1 bathrooms.
• Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts & types is regularly available on booking pages. If you don't see them listed, reach out to the property management company before you reserve your rental. Note that most listings specify maximum guest capacity, which often includes pull out couches in living rooms.
• Traveling with pets? Many vacation homes allow animals, but guidelines and restrictions apply. Type of pet, size and breeds may be limited. Make sure to ask before booking, and study your rental agreement! Pet fees or could be applied to your agreement.
• Looking for unique amenities? Most rental search websites include amenity lists and search filters. Filtering by amenity will allow you to quickly find the perfect rental.
• Proper accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for those with limited mobility. .

Tips to have a smooth stay:

• Add the host's contact information to your smartphone. Take a copy of check in/check out procedures.
• Hosts are available to help! Don't be shy to ask questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Protect the property owner (and your things!) by locking the rental while you are gone, just like you would back home.
• To ensure that no damages are linked to your visit, inspect for any problem areas upon check in. E-mail the property manager right away to relay any damages. If there is a dispute, having a record of issues and contact attempts will be valuable.
• Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking regulations can make a stay significantly more pleasurable. Be a good neighbor. You will increase your chance to make local friends, and resident neighbors are often a great resource to find the best local beaches and restaurants.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Residents can typically help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to order the best nachos, have a great night out, or the best spots for crabbing?
• Double-check the property to confirm that you've packed all of your family's items at check-out. Re-check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden belongings. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Document the condition of the property at check-out. We recommend taking a video during your final walk-through.
• Leave feedback! Property owners rely on great reviews to compel more bookings. They'll be much obliged for your review. Alternatively, if something wasn't right, other vacationing families will be thankful you shared your feedback and help them have the best future vacation. Be fair with your review. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the manager had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded quickly to solve it.
