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

When to visit & When to reserve a Beaufort rental home:

• Reserve your Crystal Coast vacation in the Spring or Fall to get the benefit of warm weather while saving money and avoiding crowds. Many vacationers use this strategy to reserve larger homes, or to book an oceanfront vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable during the Summer. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Crystal Coast vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday near the ocean? Christmas, Thanksgiving, and New Years Eve are great times to gather with loved ones at your favorite beach.
• Book your rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules usually open 12 months in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many groups book their Summer vacation rentals during Thanksgiving and Christmas gatherings. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property owner or host if your family qualifies for a price reduction or discount.
• Property management companies usually offer customers an option to add vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which normally costs between 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed vacation time as a result of medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as evacuation costs or charges, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance can be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for specifics.
• Often, management companies supply Crystal Coast area travel guide magazines which often include money-saving deals, either offered directly by local businesses, or by way of a relationship with the management company and the business itself. You can also find visitors guide and coupon books at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers.

How to choose the best vacation rental:

• Choose a group leader, select your vacation week, and choose a max budget.
• Note the number beds and what type of bedroom configuration your family needs. Idyllic waterside home with a hot tub, open-concept layout, W\/D, & central AC has 4 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed types is commonly accessible on booking pages. Otherwise, call the property owner before you reserve your home. Remember that most property listings specify maximum guest capacity, which often includes pull out couches in living rooms.
• If there's a certain Crystal Coast beach you are crazy about, search for properties that are either near by, or those that cater especially to your desires.
• Proper accessibility can make or break a vacation for guests that require the use of a wheelchair. Make certain to inquire about wheel chair entry, pool lifts and specialized equipment needs.
• Do your family pets travel with you? 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. Ask your host before booking, and study your rental agreement! Pet fees or charges may be applied to your invoice.

Advice for a smooth stay:

• Store the host's information in your smartphone.
• At Check-in, make note of any issues with the property and immediately alert the property manager. Keep records of all coorespondence.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a hot tub, television set or coffee maker. Contact your owner. They are there to help! A brief telephone call prevents quite a few issues.
• Respecting quiet hours and parking restrictions can make a stay more pleasurable. Be a good neighbor. You'll enhance your chance to make some new local friends, and resident neighbors are usually a terrific resource to find the best local attractions.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Residents can usually help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to launch your kayaks, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fishing?
• Lock your rental home while you're out. Protect the owner's property and your stuff!
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before you drive away, take a walk through the rental to make sure you've collected all of your things. Check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden items. Clean out the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Go through the property a final time and scan for damages to contents or the property itself. We advise inspecting the property with the host whenever possible. If the host isn't available, remember to take photos of the property to record its condition at check-out.
• Did your group have a terrific time? Many vacation rental websites make it easy for travelers to provide reviews. If your property and/or property management company was wonderful, 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 comments.
