How to get the best Emerald Isle vacation property experience:

When to reserve a Morehead City rental & When to go:

• The earlier you can reserve a vacation home, the better your selection will be. The most desirable vacation rentals are reserved early. Booking your rental six - twelve months before your vacation is recommended. Winter holidays are excellent times to search for and reserve your rental home.
• June, July, and August are the most expensive months along the coast of NC. Booking in the Fall or Spring shoulder seasons is one of our best tips for saving money on your vacation rental. Rental rates are lower, and you'll find a larger selection of acceptable properties. Many vacationers use this method to find larger homes within budget, or to book a beach front rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during the high season.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property manager if your family qualifies for a special rate.
• Property management companies typically offer customers an option to add vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which costs 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any days missed as a result of medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as ensuing additional evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance can be a a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for more information.
• Find a copy of your local Morehead City visitors guide magazine upon arrival. If your rental property doesn't have one, you can find them at local grocery stores and visitor centers. In addition to great local articles, visitors guide magazines have deals for nearby tours and attractions.

Use filters to narrow your rental search:

• First, have your group select trip dates and a budget.
• Note the number beds and the configuration your family requires. Surf Sounds Almost Oceanfront, Newly Updated, Beach Access Across the Street has 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts & types is usually available online. If they are not listed, email or call the property owner before you book the vacation home. Remember that most properties list maximum guest capacity, which frequently includes pull-out couches. You will need to establish what bed configuration is optimal for your vacation.
• Are you bringing the family pet? Many vacation homes allow animals, but guidelines and restrictions apply. Allowable pet type, breed, and size are often limited. Make sure to ask before booking, and study your agreement thoroughly! Extra fees or charges could be applied to your agreement.
• Is your group looking for unique amenities? Most websites include search filters with amenity lists.
• Suitable accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for persons with a disability. Confirm all required amenities are included before reserving a rental.

Additional considerations:

• Get the property manager's contact number and check in/check out procedures for your rental home.
• Hosts are great sources of help! Don't be shy to ask questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Ensure you protect the rental owner (and your things!) by locking the rental when you are gone, just like you would at home.
• During arrival, make note of any damages to the rental property and immediately alert the host. Keep records of all coorespondence.
• Be respectful. Often times, surrounding homes are occupied by local residents. Respecting noise limits and parking regulations reduces conflict and allows everyone to enjoy their day.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Locals can frequently help. Who better to ask where to take kids for a treat, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for crabbing?
• Re-check the vacation property to confirm that you've packed everything at check-out. Make sure to check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden belongings. Clean the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Document the condition of the property at check-out. We recommend taking a video during your final walk-through.
• Did your group have a excellent vacation? Most vacation rental websites make it easy for travelers to provide feedback. If your property and/or property management company was terrific, they would love to hear about it. If anything was amiss and they failed to fix it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make a note as part of your review.
