Tricks and tips for getting the perfect rental experience:

Money saving strategies:

• Summertime is high season in Atlantic Beach. To get the best value, try changing your group's trip dates to the Spring or Fall months. May, September, and even October offer great weather, fewer crowds, and greatly reduced traffic. Many vacationers use this method to find larger homes within budget, or to reserve a beach front rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during the Summer.
• In the Havelock area, The sooner your group can book, the better your selection will be. The best vacation homes are booked early. Booking your vacation property up to 12 months before your vacation is recommended. Winter holidays are excellent times to search for and book your rental property.
• Some property management companies offer discounts for active duty military and veterans. Ask your host or property manager if special offers are available for your group before you book.
• Booking websites often offer renters an option to buy vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which normally costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed vacation time as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional evacuation costs or charges, such as an unanticipated hotel or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance might be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for more information.
