Tips and Tricks to get the optimal rental experience:

Cost saving strategies:

• Book your vacation home as soon as possible. Rental schedules often open 12 months in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many families reserve their Summer rentals during Thanksgiving and Christmas get-togethers. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Summer is high season in Emerald Isle. To find the best rental home within budget, we recommend booking in Fall or Spring. You'll enjoy lower rental rates, greater selection, warm weather and the absence of large crowds at Crystal Coast restaurants, beaches, and activities. Many vacationers use this strategy to find larger homes within budget, or to book an oceanfront vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during the Summer.
• Owners sometimes offer special rates for veterans and active duty military. Ask your host or property manager if special offers are available for your group.
• Booking websites frequently offer renters an option to obtain trip insurance. Trip insurance, which will generally cost 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for days missed as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel stay or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance might be a a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for details.
• Many rental management companies and vacation rental houses supply Crystal Coast area visitors guides which will include money-saving offers, either offered independently by local businesses, or by way of 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.

Use filters to search efficiently:

• Start by selecting vacation dates and a budget.
• Note the number beds and the configuration your family needs. Starbird, Almost Oceanfront House in Emerald Isle, NC! has 4 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts & types is almost always available on booking websites. Otherwise, contact the host before you book your rental. Note that most property listings specify the max. guest capacity, which oftentimes includes sofa beds and bunks. You will need to work out what is best for your vacation.
• Remember to include your furry companions! Although a number of vacation homes allow pets or animals, guidelines and costs vary per property. Type of pet, size and breeds may be limited. Make sure to ask before booking, and study your agreement! Extra fees or charges may be applied to your contract.
• If there's a certain Crystal Coast destination you simply love, keep an eye out for properties that are either nearby, or those that cater to your desires.
• Proper accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for those with limited mobility. .

Know before you go:

• Review check in & check out procedures before traveling. Take a printed copy, and add a note with the directions to your phone.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a garage door opener, A/V setup or washer/dryer. Contact your property manager. They are there to help! A brief text message prevents a lot of issues.
• Ensure you protect the rental owner (and your things!) by keeping the rental locked up while you are gone, just like you would at home.
• To make sure damages aren't linked to your stay, inspect the rental for any problem areas upon your arrival. text the property manager right away to record any damages. If there is a dispute about legal responsibility later, having the recorded problems and contact attempts will be useful.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like loud vacationers bothering your peaceful home. Practice the golden rule for common sense. If they like you, locals might even recommend great local food and attractions you would have never otherwise known!
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Neighbors can typically help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to find the fresh catch of the day, have a great night out, or the best spots for fishing?
• Don't leave anything behind! Before departing, take a walk through the property to make sure you've collected all belongings. Check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden treasure. Clean out 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.
• Did you have a fantastic vacation? Many rental websites make it easy for guests to provide feedback. If your property and/or property manager was terrific, they always love to hear your praise. If anything was amiss and they failed to fix it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make it a point as part of your review.
