Tricks and tips to get the very best Havelock rental home experience:

Money saving strategies:

• Summer time is high season in the Havelock area. Reserve your rental in the Fall or Spring to get the benefit of gorgeous weather while saving money and avoiding crowded roads, restaurants, and activities. Many vacationers use this strategy to reserve larger homes, or to book a beach front vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable during June, July, and August. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Havelock vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday on the coast? Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with family and friends at the beach.
• The earlier your group can reserve a vacation rental, the easier your search will be. The most desirable properties are reserved very early. Reserving your rental six to twelve months before your travel dates is recommended. Winter holidays are excellent times to plan and reserve your rental property.
• Property management companies sometimes offer discounts or promotional rates for veterans and active duty military. Remember to ask your host or property manager if rate reductions are available for your group.
• Property management companies typically offer customers an option to obtain vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which generally will cost between 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any days missed as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance can be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for more information.
• Many rental management companies and vacation rental houses supply Havelock area travel guides that include money-saving deals, either offered directly by local companies, or by way of a relationship between the management company and the business itself. You can also find Havelock visitors guide and coupon books at local gas stations and shopping centers.

Planning, picking, and booking the rightrental:

• Choose vacation dates and spending budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and the bed configuration your group requires. 4BR w/ Private Pool! 2nd Row to Beach has 4 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Precise information regarding bedrooms and bed counts & types is usually available on booking pages. If they are not listed, email the property manager before you reserve the vacation property. Note that most property listings specify maximum guest capacity, which usually includes sofa beds in living rooms.
• Visiting for a specific event? Use a map search to find nearby properties.
• Suitable accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for guests that require the use of a wheelchair. Remember to confirm all necessary amenities are available before reserving a rental
• If your family is bringing pets, you'll need to find a property that allows animals. Make sure to ask for information on breed, weight, and type restrictions. Usually, hosts charge additional pet fees.

More tips for your stay:

• Add the property manager's contact info to your phone. Print and take a copy of check in/check out procedures.
• Document any damages to the rental at check in, and immediately send them to the owner. We especially recommend e-mails and text messages, as they usually contain built-in time stamps that are very helpful if damages are attributed to your stay.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a fireplace, television set or WIFI setup. Contact your property manager. They are there to help! A brief text message can prevent lots of concerns.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like disagreeable visitors bothering your home life. Employ the golden rule for common sense. Happy residents may even recommend great local food and places you would've never otherwise known about!
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Residents can usually help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to grab the best tacos, have a great night out, or the best spots for bird watching?
• Ensure you protect the rental owner (and your stuff!) by keeping the rental locked up while you are out, just like you would at home.
• Re-check every room of the property to confirm that you've packed all belongings on check-out day. Remember to check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden treasure. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Did your group have a terrific time? Many rental home management companies make it easy for customers to provide comments. If your rental and/or property management company was great, they will likely appreciate your kind words. If anything was defective and they failed to fix it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make it a point as part of your feedback.
