Our top Havelock rental booking tips and tricks:

Get the best rental value:

• Summer months are high season in Emerald Isle. Reserving a rental home in the Spring or Fall is a good way to save on your vacation rental. Rental rates are lower, and you'll find a larger selection of suitable properties.
• In the Havelock area, The sooner you can book a vacation rental, the better your selection will be. The most desirable vacation rentals are booked very early. Booking your rental home up to twelve months before your travel dates is recommended. Winter holidays are excellent times to plan and book your rental.
• Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective host whether your group qualifies for a discount.
• Property managers often offer customers an option to obtain vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which normally costs between 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed time as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as evacuation costs or charges, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance might be a a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for program terms and fees.
• Find a copy of your local Havelock area magazine when you arrive at the rental property. If your rental doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local shops and fuel stations. In addition to great local stories, travel guide magazines have discounts for nearby tours, shops, and attractions.

Choosing the best vacation rental in Emerald Isle:

• Select a group leader, select your dates, and select a spending budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and the configuration your family requires. 'West of the Moon' Ocean Apt w\/ Beach Access! has 2 bedrooms and 1 bathrooms.
• Precise information regarding bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is usually available on booking pages. If you don't see them listed, reach out to the host before booking the property. Note that most property listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which often includes sofa beds in living rooms. You'll need to work out what is optimal for your vacation group.
• Are you visiting for a specific event? Try a map search to locate nearby rentals.
• Appropriate accessibility can make or break a vacation for those with limited mobility. Confirm all necessary amenities are available and included before booking
• If your group is vacationing with pets, you must book a pet-friendly property. Get details on breed, weight, and type requirements. Some property managers charge additional pet fees.

During your stay:

• Add the property manager's phone number to your phone. Understand and take a copy of arrival/departure procedures.
• To ensure that damages are not attributed to your visit, make a record of any problem areas upon your arrival. Speak to the host immediately to record any issues. If there is a dispute about who is responsible, having the recorded concerns and contact attempts will be valuable.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a fireplace, A/V setup or kitchen appliance. Contact your owner. They are there to help! A brief phone call prevents lots of issues.
• Respect your neighbors. Often times, surrounding homes are filled by local residents. Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking policies is the right thing to do.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Neighbors can usually help. Who better to ask where to enjoy a steak with a view, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for shopping?
• Lock your rental property while you are out! Don't let crooks spoil your trip.
• Re-check every room of the vacation property to confirm that you've packed all belongings at check-out. Make sure to check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden belongings. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Go through the rental a final time and look for any damage. We suggest inspecting the property with the property manager whenever you can. If the manager isn't available, remember to take pictures of the property to record its condition at check-out.
• Did your family have a wonderful stay? Most rental websites make it easy for clients to provide feedback. If your property and/or property management company was great, they will likely appreciate your kind words. If anything was imperfect and they failed to fix it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make a note as part of your comments.
