Here are a few kind words from past guests:
From Anna, August 2024
"Even better than the photos! We definitely appreciated our stay and cannot wait to come back. This was our 8th time in Emerald Isle and by far the best place we’ve stayed. The condo itself is beautiful and has anything you could need. We appreciated sitting out in the back porch overlooking the pool and reading in the swing chairs out front. The beach was a very short walk away! We will definitely come back."

How to find the best vacation home experience:

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

• June, July, and August are the most expensive months in Emerald Isle. Reserve your vacation home in Spring or Fall to get the benefit of gorgeous weather while saving money and avoiding crowded roads, restaurants, and activities. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Havelock vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday on the coast? Christmas, Thanksgiving, and New Years Eve are great times to gather with friends and family at the beach.
• Reserve your vacation rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules often become available twelve months in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many groups book their Summer rentals during holiday gatherings. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Some hosts and property managers offer rate reductions for veterans. Remember to ask your host or property manager if special discounts are available for your family.
• Property managers frequently offer guests an option to add vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which will generally cost 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any days missed as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather, as well as hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance can be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for specifics.
• Many management companies supply Havelock area travel guides which often include money-saving offers, either offered independently by local companies, or through a relationship between the management company and the business itself. You can also find Havelock visitors guide and coupon books at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers.

Finding the best vacation rental in Emerald Isle:

• Select a group lead, choose your vacation dates, and select a max budget.
• Note the number beds and what type of bedroom configuration you need. Steps to Beach & Pool! 3BR Emerald Isle Condo w/ Arcade – Perfect for Families has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our rental home search.
• Specific information about bedrooms and bed types is normally available online. If not, reach out to the property management company before you book the vacation property. Note that most property listings specify maximum guest capacity, which oftentimes includes sofa beds in living rooms. You will need to work out what is optimal for your family.
• Are you visiting for a single event or attraction? Try a map search to browse nearby properties.
• Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for the less-mobile. .
• If your group is bringing pets, you must reserve a property that allows animals. Request specifics on breed, weight, and type restrictions. Some property managers require additional pet deposits and fees.

Advice for a wonderful stay:

• Add the host's contact info to your smartphone. Take a copy of arrival/departure procedures.
• During check-in, note any damages to the rental property and immediately alert the host. Keep records of all correspondence just in case a dispute arises.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a garage door opener, television set or thermostat. Contact your property manager. They are there to help! A brief phone call can prevent a lot of problems.
• Be a good neighbor. Frequently, surrounding homes are occupied by permanent residents. Respecting noise limits and parking policies can make a stay significantly more pleasurable.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Local residents can often help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to rent beach equipment, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for shopping?
• Lock your rental while you're away. Protect your property!
• Double-check every room of the property to confirm that you've packed all belongings on check-out day. Make sure to check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden belongings. Clean out the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Go through the property one final time and scan for any damage. We recommend inspecting the property with the property manager whenever you can. If the property manager isn't available, remember to take video of the property to record its condition at check-out.
• Did your family have a fantastic time? Most vacation rental websites make it easy for guests to provide reviews. If your rental property and/or property management company was terrific, they would love to hear it. If anything was defective and they failed to address it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make a note as part of your comments.
