Tips for getting the perfect vacation home experience:

Finding the best rental value:

• To get the best value, try shifting your group's vacation dates to the Spring or Fall seasons. May, September, and October offer warmer weather, less crowded beaches, and greatly reduced traffic.
• Reserve your vacation rental as early as possible. Rental schedules generally open a year in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many groups book their Summer rental homes during Christmas and Thanksgiving get-togethers. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Some property managers offer discounts for active duty military and veterans. Check with your property manager to see if discounts are available for your family.
• Booking websites frequently offer guests an option to add vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed trip time as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for more information.
• Many rental management companies supply Morehead City area visitor guides which will include special offers, either offered independently by local companies, or through a relationship between the management company and the business itself. You can also find Morehead City visitors guide and coupon books at local gas stations and shopping centers.

Use filters to search efficiently:

• Select your vacation week and maximum budget.
• Determine how many beds and what type of bedroom configuration your family needs. Stay Salty, Almost Oceanfront House in Emerald Isle, NC! has 5 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our search.
• Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts & types is generally available online. If you don't see them listed, contact the property management company before you book the rental. Note that most property listings specify maximum guest capacity, which often includes sofa beds and bunks.
• Are you looking for particular amenities? Most rental websites include search filters for amenities. Amenity filters help you quickly remove less-optimal properties.
• Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for those with limited mobility. .
• Are you traveling with furry, four-legged family members? Many vacation homes allow animals, but guidelines and restrictions apply. Allowable pet type, breed, and size are often limited. Ask your property manager before booking, and study your rental agreement! Additional fees or charges could be applied to your contract.

Advice for a smooth stay:

• Review arrival and departure procedures before traveling. Take a printed copy, and save the instructions to your phone.
• To ensure that damages are not linked to your visit, inspect the rental for any problem areas when you arrive. Make contact with the rental manager immediately to document any pre-existing damages. If there is a dispute about legal responsibility later, having the recorded concerns and contact attempts will be very helpful.
• Property managers are there to help! Feel free to ask any questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking restrictions can make a stay more pleasurable. You'll magnify your chance to make some new local friends, and resident neighbors are often a great source for finding the best local restaurants, beaches, and hangouts.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Local residents can usually point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to find the best seashells, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for shopping?
• Protect the property owner (and your stuff!) by locking the rental while you are gone, just like you would at home.
• Re-check every room of the rental property to make sure that you've packed all of your belongings on check-out day. Remember to check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden treasure. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Please make sure to walk through the property one final time and look for any damage. We suggest walking through with the host whenever possible. If the property manager is not available, ensure that you take photos of the property to record its condition.
• Leave a review! Property managers rely on excellent reviews to drive future bookings. They'll be thankful 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 could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded expeditiously to fix it.
