How to find the best Morehead City rental experience:

How to get the best rental value:

• Summer months are the most expensive season in coastal NC. To find the best value, try changing your group's vacation to the Spring or Fall months. May, September, and even October offer excellent weather, less crowded beaches, and reduced traffic. Many vacationers use this method to find larger homes within budget, or to book a beach front vacation rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during the Summer months. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Morehead City vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation near the ocean? Christmas, Thanksgiving, and New Years Eve are great times to gather with family and friends at your favorite beach.
• Book your vacation rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules generally become available twelve months in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many families book their Summer rental homes during Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years Eve gatherings. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Owners sometimes offer discounts for veterans and active duty military. Remember to ask your host or property manager if special discounts are available for your family before you book.
• Management companies and individual rental owners typically offer customers an option to obtain vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which commonly costs between 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any days missed as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel stay or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for more information.
• Look for your local Morehead City visitors guide when you check-in. If your rental property doesn't have one, you can find them at local shops and fuel stations. In addition to great local information, visitor guides contain discounts for nearby tours, shops, and attractions.

Use filters to search efficiently:

• First, have your family decide on date ranges and a maximum budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and the bed configuration you need. Dune Castle West- Oceanfront Beach Cottage has 5 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our Morehead City vacation rental search.
• Specific information about bedrooms and bed counts & types is usually accessible on booking websites. If you don't see them listed, email the property manager before booking the home. Note that most properties list the maximum guest capacity, which often includes pull-out couches and bunk beds.
• If there's an individual Morehead City beach you simply love, keep an eye out for homes that are either nearby, or those that cater especially to your needs.
• Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for persons with disabilities. Confirm all required amenities are included before reserving a rental.
• If your family is bringing pets, you must book a property that allows animals. Make sure to ask for specifics on breed, weight, and type requirements. Some hosts charge pet deposits and fees.

Know before you go:

• Store the host's contact information in your smartphone.
• During check-in, record any damages to the rental property and immediately alert the host. Keep records of all correspondence just in case a dispute arises.
• Hosts are there to help! Feel free to ask any questions during your stay.
• Respecting quiet hours and parking rules can make a stay more pleasurable. You will increase your chance to make local friends, and resident neighbors are often an excellent source for finding the best local beaches.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Neighbors can typically help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to rent beach equipment, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fishing?
• Ensure you protect the property owner (and your stuff!) by locking the rental while you are gone, just like you would back home.
• Re-check the rental property to confirm that you've packed everything on check-out day. Re-check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden treasure. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• After your trip, leave a review! Property managers rely on good reviews to propel future bookings. They'll be thankful for your review. Alternatively, if something wasn't right, other families will appreciate that you share your feedback and help them have the best future vacation. Remember to be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the owner had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded expeditiously to remedy it.
