Getting the best Beaufort vacation property experience:

Sticking to a budget:

• Reserve your vacation rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules usually open twelve months in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many families reserve their Summer rental homes during holiday get-togethers. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Summer months are high season in the Morehead City area. Book your rental home in the Fall or Spring shoulder seasons to get the benefit of beautiful weather while saving money and avoiding crowds.
• Owners sometimes offer rate reductions for active duty military and veterans. Remember to ask your host or property manager if special offers are available for your group.
• Booking websites typically offer their guests an option to add trip insurance. Trip insurance, which will generally cost anywhere between 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any days missed as a result of medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for details.
• Many management companies and vacation rental houses supply Morehead City area visitors guide magazines which include special offers, either offered independently by local companies, or through a partnership between the rental management company and the business itself. You can also find visitors guide and coupon books at local shops and grocery stores.

Filter your search:

• First, have your group agree to trip dates and a maximum budget.
• Decide how many bedrooms and what type of bedroom configuration your group needs. Fisherman's paradise, large covered porch, pet friendly, & close to Beaufort, NC has 1 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Specific details about bedrooms and bed counts is commonly available online. If you don't see them listed, reach out to the host before reserving the home. Note that most property listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which usually includes sofa beds. You will need to determine what bed configuration is suitable for your vacation group.
• If your group is vacationing with pets, search for a pet-friendly rental. Make sure to ask for details on breed, size, and type restrictions. Some property owners charge additional pet fees.
• If there's a specific Morehead City destination you crave, look for homes that are either nearby, or those that cater to your requirements.
• Suitable accessibility can make or break a vacation for the less-mobile. Confirm all necessary amenities are available and included before booking.

More considerations for your visit:

• Take a copy of the host's phone number and check in/check out procedures for your rental property.
• Hosts are there to help! Feel free to ask any questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Keep the property locked while you are gone! Don't let burglars ruin your vacation.
• To ensure that no damages are linked to your family's visit, inspect the property for any problem areas during check in. Contact the rental manager immediately to report any pre-existing damages. If there is a dispute, having a record of issues and contact attempts will be useful.
• Don't forget to respect your neighbors. Frequently, adjacent homes are filled by permanent residents. Respecting quiet hours and parking policies is the right thing to do.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Locals can often 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 shopping?
• Double-check the property to make sure that you've packed all belongings on check-out day. Remember to check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden belongings. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Leave a review! Hosts rely on great reviews to drive new reservations. They'll be grateful for your review. Alternatively, if something wasn't as described, other vacationing families will appreciate that you share your review and help them have the best future vacation. Please be fair with your feedback If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the host had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded expeditiously to remedy it.
