Our top Rental booking tips and tricks:

Find your perfect vacation home:

• June, July, and August are the most expensive months in coastal NC. To find the most suitable rental home within your budget, we highly recommend booking in the Fall or Spring. You'll enjoy lower rates, greater selection, gorgeous weather and the absence of giant crowds at Havelock restaurants, beaches, and activities. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Havelock vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation on the coast? Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with family and friends at the beach.
• Reserve your vacation rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules generally become available twelve months in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many groups reserve their Summer vacations during Thanksgiving and Christmas gatherings. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective host if your family qualifies for a discount.
• Management companies and individual rental owners typically offer renters an option to buy trip insurance. Trip insurance, which normally costs 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed trip time as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as ensuing additional evacuation costs or charges, such as an unanticipated hotel or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance can be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for additional information.
• Many rental management companies supply Havelock area visitors guides which often include special deals, either offered independently by local businesses, or through a partnership between the rental management company and the business itself. You can also find Havelock area magazine and coupon books at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers.

Choosing the best vacation home:

• Begin by choosing potential vacation weeks and a budget.
• Note the number bedrooms and the bed configuration your family needs. Ocean Front Home in Atlantic Beach-Taylor Cottage has 5 bedrooms and 6 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our search.
• Specific information regarding bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is usually accessible online. If they are not listed, contact the property manager before booking your rental. Note that most properties list the maximum guest capacity, which typically includes sofa beds in living rooms.
• If there's a particular Havelock attraction you simply love, search for rentals that are either close by, or those that cater to your needs.
• Suitable accessibility can make or break a vacation for persons with a disability. .
• If your group is vacationing with pets, search for a rental that allows animals. Request information on breed, size, and type restrictions. Often, property owners charge additional pet fees.

Considerations for your stay:

• Store the manager's contact information in your smartphone.
• Upon arrival, document any issues with the rental property and immediately alert the owner. Keep records of all coorespondence.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a hot tub, elevator or coffee maker. Contact your property manager. They are there to help! A brief telephone call prevents a lot of problems.
• Be respectful of your neighbors. Often, surrounding homes are filled by local residents. Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking policies is the right thing to do.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Locals can typically point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to get the best seafood, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for crabbing?
• Keep the property locked while you are gone! Don't let burglars spoil your trip.
• Re-check every room of the rental property to confirm that you've packed everything at check-out. Remember to check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden belongings. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Walk through the property a final time and scan for damage. We recommend inspecting the property with the property manager whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the property manager isn't available, remember to take pictures of the rental to record its condition.
• Did you have a wonderful stay? Many rental home management companies make it easy for travelers to provide comments. If your rental and/or host was terrific, they always love to hear your praise. If anything was amiss and they failed to fix it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make a note as part of your comments.
