Vacation rental home tips:

Get the most from your budget:

• Reserve your rental as early as possible. Rental schedules generally open a year in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many groups book their Summer vacation rentals during Thanksgiving and Christmas gatherings. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Summer time is high season in Emerald Isle. Reserve your vacation in Spring or Fall to enjoy gorgeous weather while saving money and avoiding crowded roads, restaurants, and activities. Many vacationers use this method to find larger homes within budget, or to book a beach front rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during the Summer. 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 property management companies offer promotional rates for veterans. It's always a good idea to check with your host or property manager to see if special offers are available for your group before you book.
• Property managers usually offer their guests an option to obtain trip insurance. Trip insurance, which commonly will cost you anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed vacation time as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for specifics.
• Look for your local Havelock area magazine upon checking in. If your rental doesn't have one, you can find them at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers. In addition to great local stories, visitors guides have money saving offers on nearby restaurants, attractions, and tours.

How to choose the perfect rental home:

• To start, have your family choose trip dates and a spending budget.
• Determine how many beds and the configuration your family requires. Surf Daze: Waterfront Pool House + Tiny Home & Golf Cart has 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms.
• Specific details about bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is generally available on booking websites. If they are not listed, email or call the property management company before you reserve the vacation property. Remember that most property listings specify maximum guest capacity, which frequently includes pull out couches in living rooms. You will need to work out what is optimal for your vacation.
• If your family is traveling with pets, you'll need to find a property that allows animals. Request specifics on breed, weight, and type restrictions. Note that some hosts charge pet deposits and fees.
• If there's a particular Havelock destination you crave, search for homes that are either nearby, or those that cater to your needs.
• Suitable accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for the less-mobile. Make certain to inquire about wheel chair accessibility, pool lifts and specialized equipment needs.

Have a wonderful stay:

• Take a copy of the host's phone number and entry/exit procedures for your rental. Put the host's information in your smartphone and wallet.
• Hosts are great sources of help! Feel free to ask any questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Protect the owner (and your stuff!) by keeping the rental locked up when you are away, just like you would back home.
• At Check-in, document any issues with the property and immediately contact the owner. Keep records of all correspondence just in case a dispute arises.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like disrespectful visitors disrupting your peace. Practice the golden rule for best judgement. If they like you, locals might even recommend great beaches and attractions you would have not otherwise known!
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Locals can usually help. Who better to ask where to charter a fishing boat, have a great night out, or the best spots for shopping?
• Just before checking out, take a walk-through to confirm you did not leave anything behind. Make sure to check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden items. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Inspect the property a final time and look for any damage. We recommend inspecting the property with the host whenever you can. If the host is not available, ensure that you take video and pictures of the property to record its condition at check-out.
• Did your family have a wonderful time? Many rental home management companies make it easy for vacationers to provide comments. If your property and/or host was terrific, they always love to hear your praise. If anything was wrong and they failed to correct it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make a note as part of your feedback.
