Our top Atlantic Beach rental home booking tips:

Get the most from your budget:

• Summer months are high season in Atlantic Beach. Booking your vacation rental in Spring or Fall is a great way to save on your rental home. Rates are lower, and you'll find a larger selection of desirable properties. Many vacationers use this method to find larger homes within budget, or to book an oceanfront rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during June, July, and August.
• Reserve your vacation home as early as possible. Rental schedules generally open twelve months in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many groups reserve their Summer rental homes during Christmas and Thanksgiving get-togethers. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Some hosts offer special rates for veterans and active duty military. Remember to ask your host or property manager if discounts are available for your group before you book.
• Management companies and individual rental owners frequently offer guests an option to obtain vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which generally costs between 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed trip time as a result of medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as ensuing additional evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance might be a a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for specifics.
• Many management companies and vacation rental houses supply Morehead City area travel guides which include coupons, either offered independently by local businesses, or through a relationship between the rental 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 choose and book yourrental:

• Select a group lead, choose your trip dates, and choose a spending budget.
• Decide how many beds and the bed configuration your family needs. Classic beach house right on the ocean. has 5 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms.
• Precise information regarding bedrooms and bed types is normally available on booking websites. If they are not listed, reach out to the property owner before you reserve the rental. Remember that most properties list the maximum guest capacity, which typically includes sofa beds and bunks. You'll need to work out what is right for your vacation family.
• If there's an individual Morehead City beach you love, look for properties that are either near by, or those that cater to your desires.
• Suitable accessibility can make or break a vacation for the less-mobile. Confirm all necessary amenities are available before booking.
• Some rentals allow pets, and others don't. Allowable types of family pet, size and breeds may be restricted, and added fees may apply. Ask the host about pet restrictions before booking.

Tips for a great stay:

• Add the owner's contact info to your phone. Understand and take a copy of check in/check out procedures.
• To make certain that no damages are linked to your family's stay, record any problem areas when you arrive. Contact the host right away to report your findings. If there is a dispute about legal responsibility later, having the recorded issues and contact attempts will be useful.
• Property managers are great sources of help! Don't be shy to ask questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Respecting quiet hours and parking restrictions can make a stay significantly more pleasurable. Be a good neighbor. You will magnify your chance to make local friends, and resident neighbors are often a great resource to find the best local beaches and hangouts.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Residents can frequently help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to find the fresh catch of the day, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for bird watching?
• Lock your rental while you are out. Protect the owner's property and your things!
• Upon check-out, complete a final walk-through to make sure you did not forget anything. Re-check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden items. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Go through the property one final time and keep an eye out for damages to contents or the property itself. We advise walking through with the host whenever possible. If the property manager isn't available, ensure that you take pictures of the property to record its condition at check-out.
• After your trip, leave a review! Hosts rely on good reviews to propel new reservations. They'll be much obliged for your feedback. Alternatively, if something went awry, other families will be thankful you shared your feedback and help them have the best future vacation. Please be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the manager could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded expeditiously to solve it.
