Our top Morehead City rental booking tips and tricks:

Find your best deal:

• Book your vacation rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules generally become available twelve months in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many groups book their Summer vacations during holiday get-togethers. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• June, July, and August are the most expensive months in Atlantic Beach. Reserving a rental home in Spring or Fall is one of our best tips for saving money on your rental home. Rates are lower, and you'll find a better selection of desirable properties. Many vacationers use this strategy to find larger homes within budget, or to reserve an oceanfront vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable during June, July, and August.
• Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property owner or host whether your group qualifies for a special rate.
• Property management companies often offer renters an option to obtain trip insurance. Trip insurance, which generally costs 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed vacation time as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel stay or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for program terms and fees.
• Many management companies supply Morehead City area travel guides which often include special deals, either offered independently by local businesses, or through a relationship between the management company and the business itself. You can also find Morehead City visitors guide and coupon books at local gas stations and shopping centers.

How to select the best vacation home in the Morehead City area:

• First, have your group agree to vacation dates and a budget.
• Note the number beds and what type of bedroom configuration your group requires. Oceanfront Beach House on Highly Sought After Ocean Ridge has 6 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms.
• Precise information about bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is commonly available on booking websites. If they are not listed, call the property management company before reserving the vacation property. Remember that most properties list the max. guest capacity, which often includes sofa beds.
• If your group is vacationing with pets, you will need a pet-friendly rental. Request information on breed, weight, and type restrictions. Usually, property managers charge pet deposits and fees.
• Looking for specific amenities? Most websites include search filters with amenity lists.
• Proper accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for the less-mobile. Remember to confirm all required amenities are available before booking

Know before you go:

• Be sure you get the owner's contact number and arrival/departure procedures for your .
• Property managers are great sources of help! Don't be shy to ask any questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Ensure you protect the owner (and your stuff!) by keeping the rental locked up while you are out, just like you would at home.
• Record any issues with the property during check in, and immediately contact the owner. We specifically recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain time stamps that are very helpful if damages are assessed.
• Respecting quiet hours and parking policies can make a stay significantly more pleasurable. Be a good neighbor. You will increase your chance to make some new local friends, and resident neighbors are a terrific source for finding the best local attractions.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Locals can typically help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to charter a fishing boat, have a great night out, or the best spots for bird watching?
• Don't leave anything behind! Before you drive away, walk through the property to confirm you've collected everything. Re-check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden belongings. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Go through the property one final time and scan for any damage. We advise walking through with the host whenever you can. If the manager is not available, remember to take photos and video of the property to record its condition.
• Did your family have a great stay? Most rental management companies make it easy for customers to provide comments. If your rental property and/or property manager was terrific, they would love to hear it. If anything was out of order 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 review.
