Emerald Isle rental home booking tips:

Finding your perfect vacation home:

• The sooner you can book a rental home, the easier your search will be. The most desirable vacation rentals are booked early. Booking your rental six - twelve months before your vacation dates is recommended. Holidays such as Christmas and Thanksgiving are excellent times to plan and book your rental home.
• Book your Havelock rental home in Fall or Spring months to get the benefit of beautiful weather while saving money and avoiding crowds. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Havelock vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation on the coast? Thanksgiving and Christmas are great times to gather with family and friends at your favorite beach.
• Hosts sometimes offer special rates for veterans and active duty military. Remember to ask your property manager if special discounts are available for your family.
• Booking websites typically offer renters an option to add trip insurance. Trip insurance, which will generally cost anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for days missed as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel stay or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for additional information.
• Find a copy of your local Havelock visitors guide magazine upon checking in. If your rental home doesn't have one, you can find them at local shops and fuel stations. In addition to great information, travel guides have discounts for local shops and restaurants.

Planning, selecting, and booking the rightrental:

• Select a designated group leader, select your vacation week, and select a spending budget.
• Note the number bedrooms and what type of bedroom configuration your group requires. Toes in the Sand - Oceanview Condo Emerald Isle has 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Precise information about bedrooms and bed types is commonly available on booking websites. If they are not listed, email the property management company before reserving the rental. Note that most properties list the max. guest capacity, which often includes sofa beds and bunks. You will need to work out what configuration is right for your trip.
• Are you traveling with furry, four-legged family members? Many vacation homes allow animals, but guidelines and restrictions apply. Allowable pet type, breed, and size are often limited. Remember to ask your host before booking, and study your rental agreement! Additional fees or might be applied to your agreement.
• If there's a certain Havelock beach you love, keep an eye out for rentals that are either near by, or those that cater especially to your needs.
• Appropriate accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for guests that require the use of a wheelchair. .

More considerations for your visit:

• Get the host's contact number and entry/exit procedures for your rental.
• Hosts are there to help! Don't be shy to ask any questions during your stay.
• Ensure you protect the property owner (and your stuff!) by locking the rental while you are out, just like you would at home.
• Record any damages to the property at check in, and immediately contact the property manager. We specifically recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain built-in time stamps that can be beneficial if damages are attributed to your stay.
• Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking rules can make a stay significantly more pleasurable. Be a good neighbor. You will increase your chance to make local friends, and resident neighbors are a great resource to find the best local beaches and restaurants.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Residents can typically help. Who better to ask where to charter a fishing boat, have a great night out, or the best spots for BBQ?
• Upon check-out, take a final walk-through to confirm you didn't forget any personal items. Re-check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden items. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Go through the property a final time and look for damage. We advise walking through with the host whenever possible. If the manager is not available, take video and pictures of the rental to record its condition at check-out.
• Did you have a terrific vacation? Most rental home management companies make it easy for vacationers to provide reviews. If your property and/or host was terrific, they would love to hear about it. If anything was defective and they failed to address it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make a note as part of your review.
