Tips to get the best Pine Knoll Shores vacation home experience:

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

• The earlier you can reserve a home, the better your selection will be. The most desirable rental properties are booked early. Booking your rental property six - twelve months before your vacation is recommended. Christmas, Thanksgiving and New Years Eve are excellent times to plan and reserve your rental.
• Reserve your vacation home in the Spring or Fall to get the benefit of beautiful weather while saving money and avoiding crowds. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Havelock 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.
• Some hosts offer special rates for veterans and active duty military. It's always a good idea to check with your property manager to see if special offers are available for your family.
• Property managers usually offer guests an option to buy trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed trip time as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather, as well as ensuing additional evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance might be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for details.
• Find a copy of your local Havelock visitors guide magazine when you check-in. If your rental property doesn't have one, you can find them at local grocery stores and visitor centers. In addition to great local information, visitors guides have money saving offers on nearby accommodations, restaurants and tours.

Use filters to narrow your search:

• Select a group lead, choose your dates, and select a budget.
• Note the number beds and the bed configuration your group needs. Big Kahuna - Oceanfront (As seen on HGTV Beach Hunters) has 6 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is normally available online. If they are not listed, reach out to the property management company before booking the rental. Remember that most properties list the maximum guest capacity, which frequently includes sofa beds and bunks. You will need to establish what is right for your vacation.
• If your family is vacationing with pets, search for a pet-friendly vacation rental. Get details on breed, weight, and type restrictions. Often, hosts charge additional pet fees.
• If there's a certain Havelock beach you are enamored with, look for properties that are either close by, or those that cater to your requirements.
• Suitable accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for the less-mobile. Confirm all necessary amenities are included before reserving a rental

More tips for your stay:

• Store the manager's contact information in your smartphone and wallet.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a garage door opener, A/V setup or washer/dryer. Contact your owner. They are there to help! A brief text message prevents lots of concerns.
• Lock your vacation home while you're away. Keep your property safe!
• Upon arrival, document any damages to the property and immediately contact the property manager. Record all correspondence in case a dispute arises.
• Respecting quiet hours and parking restrictions can make a stay more pleasurable. Be a good neighbor. You'll increase your chance to make local friends, and resident neighbors can be a terrific source for finding the best local scenic spots.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Local residents can typically help. Who better to ask where to get the best seafood, have a great night out, or the best spots for shopping?
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before you drive away, walk through the rental to make sure you've collected all of your things. Remember to check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden treasure. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Leave a review! Property managers rely on great reviews to stimulate new reservations. They'll be much obliged for your feedback. Alternatively, if something went awry, other families will be thankful you shared your feedback and help them have the best future vacation. Remember to be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the host could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded reasonably to remedy it.
