How to find and book a great rental property:

Before you decide to book "Cozy Beach Getaway at APATB! Sandy beaches, waterslides, mini golf, pools & more", go through our short checklist of factors to consider.

The Earlier You Begin, The Better The Choices

Morehead City rental properties book several months (and up to a year) in advance. To guarantee the most desirable choice of vacation homes, we recommend searching and booking your Morehead City rental home 6-12 months in advance, whenever you can. Christmas, Thanksgiving and New Years are excellent times to find and book your rental home..

Find your Area and Establish Dates

Oftentimes, the most challenging portion of planning your trip is figuring out where to search, and when. Once the big decisions are hammered out, everything else becomes simplier and easier.

Just How Many Bedrooms?

How many relatives are joining your trip? Keep in mind that most properties advertise maximum guest capacity, which typically includes sofa beds in the family room. You'll need to determine what is most appropriate for your company. Specific descriptions of bedrooms and beds are usually accessible online. If not, get in touch with the property owner before you book.

Stay on a Budget

Most vacation homes are advertised with a cost range. Confirm the cost for your preferred stay. It could be at the top end of the range. Make certain to get cost-sharing commitments from travel companions well before booking a costly rental property. One member of your party will have to be given the task of gathering repayments and acknowledging responsibility for the entire rental payment at time of booking.

Let's Talk Amenities

What property features is your family trying to find? Do you want a rental property with outdoor lounge? Will the property need to be oceanfront, downtown, or close to wildlife? Are bed linens included with the rental contract, or will you need to take your own? Make a list of "necessities and preferences" from your group to help filter your search to the most suitable rental.

Accessability

Occasionally the senior generation has challenges with stairways. If wheel chair entry, elevators, pool lifts or other special equipment is necessary, factor that into your search. Most vacation rental listings include a list of amenities.

Have You Considered Furry Family Members?

Be sure to include your companion! Although quite a few vacation homes permit cats and dogs, guidelines and costs vary per property. A number of constraints may possibly dismiss a prospective rental home. Make certain you read descriptions and contracts carefully. Charges may apply when pets are added. If in doubt, ask the property owner and get it in writing.

Searching the Internet

Many internet resources exist to match visitors with rental home owners.. In combination with Homeaway, VRBO and Tripadvisor, we suggest searching Google for "Morehead City local vacation homes" for local rental home management companies. Local companies generally have a unique assortment of rental properties daily and weekly.

Negotiate the Price

When you have identified your dream rental, double check to make sure your vacation dates are available.

Some property owners will negotiate prices, and some won't. If the price isn't negotiable, the number of nights might be. This is most effective throughout the off-season when many rentals sit empty.

Study the Contract

It is advisable to know which services are included:

• Electric bills
• WIFI Access
• Long Distance Calls
• Pool and hot tub heating
• Cable and pay-per-view TV
• Housekeeping
• Trash Pickup (and which day?)
• Maintenance (get a phone number)
• Key exchange
• Parking requirements

Get a total that includes state taxes, animal and other additional fees.

Cancellation Policies

Be sure you be aware of the cancellation policy prior to booking. Vacation home management companies and individual home owners typically offer their guests the choice to purchase trip insurance. Trip insurance shields the renter against emergency situations and weather events, It gives you peace of mind should tragedy strike.

Book your Rental Home

Once you think you've found "the one", begin the booking process. Remember that most rental agreements will require a significant rental down payment and/or security deposit to protect the vacation rental owner.

Know Who to Call

Put the property manager's contact information into your phone and wallet for easy access to answers during your trip.

Congratulations! All that is left is making the most of your vacation!
