Our top Morehead City vacation rental tips and tricks:

Getting the most from your vacation rental budget:

• June, July, and August are the most expensive months in the Morehead City area. To find the best value, consider shifting your family's Morehead City vacation dates to the Spring or Fall seasons. May, September, and even October offer excellent temperatures, , and greatly reduced traffic. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Morehead City vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday near the ocean? Thanksgiving and Christmas are great times to gather with friends and family at your favorite beach.
• In the Morehead City area, The earlier your group can book, the easier your search will be. The most desirable properties are reserved early. Reserving your rental home six - twelve months before your vacation is recommended. Christmas, Thanksgiving and New Years Eve are excellent times to search for and book your vacation rental.
• Some property management companies offer rate reductions for veterans and active duty military. Ask your property manager if discounts are available for your family.
• Property managers frequently offer their guests an option to add trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which normally will cost 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed time as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance can be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for details.
• Look for your local Morehead City area magazine when you check-in. If your rental home doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local shops and visitor centers. In addition to great local stories, visitors guide magazines contain coupons for local tours and attractions.

Use filters to narrow your search:

• Start by choosing your the best vacation week and a maximum budget.
• Decide how many bedrooms and the bed configuration your family needs. Luxe Villa – Steps to Beach & Pool, LINENS INCLUDED has 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms.
• Specific information regarding bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is commonly available on booking websites. If not, email the host before reserving the property. Note that most property listings specify maximum guest capacity, which frequently includes sofa beds. You'll need to determine what bed configuration is optimal for your vacation.
• If there's a particular Morehead City attraction you love, look for homes that are either nearby, or those that cater especially to your needs.
• Suitable accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for guests that require the use of a wheelchair. Confirm all required amenities are available before booking
• If your group is bringing pets, you'll need to find a property that allows animals. Ask for information on breed, weight, and type restrictions. Usually, property managers require additional pet deposits and fees.

More considerations:

• Get the property manager's phone number and arrival/departure procedures for your rental home.
• Make a record of any issues with the property upon arrival, and immediately contact the owner. We especially recommend e-mails and text messages, as they usually contain time stamps that can be beneficial if a dispute is filed.
• Property managers are great sources of help! Feel free to ask questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking policies can make a stay more pleasurable. Be a good neighbor. You will enhance your chance to make some new local friends, and resident neighbors are usually a fantastic source for finding the best local restaurants, beaches, and hangouts.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Residents can often point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to take kids for a treat, have a great night out, or the best spots for shopping?
• Lock your rental while you're out and about. Protect the owner's property and your stuff!
• When it's time to leave, complete a walk-through to confirm you didn't leave anything behind. Re-check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden items. Clean out the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Please make sure to walk through the property one final time and keep an eye out for any damage. We suggest inspecting the property with the property manager whenever possible. If the manager is not available, ensure that you take photos and video of the property to record its condition.
• Leave feedback! Property owners rely on good feedback to propel new bookings. They'll be grateful for your review. Alternatively, if something wasn't right, other vacationing families will appreciate that you share your review and help them have the best future vacation. Please be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the property manager could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded quickly to solve it.
