Vacation rental home tips:

Sticking to your spending plan:

• Reserve your rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules usually become available twelve months in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many groups book their Summer vacations during Thanksgiving and Christmas gatherings. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Summer months are the most expensive season in the Havelock area. Reserving a rental home in Fall or Spring is one of our best tips for saving money on your vacation rental. Rental rates are lower, and you'll find a better selection of desirable homes. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, or to book an oceanfront vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during the Summer. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Havelock vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation near the ocean? Christmas, Thanksgiving, and New Years Eve are great times to gather with loved ones at your favorite beach.
• Some hosts offer promotional rates for veterans and active duty military. Check with your host or property manager to see if rate reductions are available for your family before you book.
• Property managers frequently offer their guests an option to buy vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which costs 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed vacation time as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for more information.
• Many rental management companies and vacation rental houses supply Havelock area visitors guide magazines that include special offers, either offered directly by local companies, or through a relationship between the management company and the business itself. You can also find Havelock area magazine and coupon books at local gas stations and shopping centers.

How to choose the perfect rental home:

• First and foremost, have your group decide on vacation dates and a budget.
• Note the number beds and the bed configuration your group needs. Emerald Isle Vacation Home: Walk to Beach! has 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms.
• Precise information regarding bedrooms and bed counts & types is commonly available on booking pages. If you don't see them listed, email or call the property owner before you book your home. Remember that most listings specify the max. guest capacity, which typically includes pull-out couches and bunk beds.
• Some rentals allow pets, but others don't. Allowable types of family pet, weight and breeds may be restricted, and additional costs may apply. Ask the host about your furry family members before booking.
• Are you visiting for a specific event? Try a map search to browse nearby properties.
• Proper accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for guests that require the use of a wheelchair. .

During your stay:

• Review arrival and departure procedures before traveling. Take a printed copy, and save the instructions to your phone.
• Hosts are available to help! Feel free to ask questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Ensure you protect the property owner (and your stuff!) by locking the property when you are out, just like you would at home.
• To make certain no damages are linked to your family's stay, note any problem areas during check in. Make contact with the host right away to record any issues. If there is a dispute about who is responsible, having a record of problems and contact attempts will be valuable.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like troublesome visitors disrupting your peace and quiet. Practice the golden rule for best judgement. If they like you, locals might even recommend great restaurants and scenic spots you would've never otherwise known!
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Locals can typically help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to take kids for a treat, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for bird watching?
• Double-check every room of the vacation property to make sure that you've packed all of your belongings at check-out. Make sure to check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden treasure. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Did you have a terrific time? Most rental managers make it easy for travelers to provide feedback. If your rental and/or property management company was wonderful, they always love to hear your praise. If anything was out of order and they failed to fix it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make it a point as part of your feedback.
