Our top Crystal Coast vacation rental home tips and tricks:

Cost saving strategies:

• Summer months are the most expensive season in Emerald Isle. To get the best value, consider shifting your trip dates to the Spring or Fall seasons. May, September, and October offer warmer weather, fewer crowds, and reduced traffic. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Crystal Coast vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday on the coast? Christmas, Thanksgiving, and New Years Eve are great times to gather with loved ones at your favorite beach.
• Book your vacation rental as early as possible. Rental schedules generally open 12 months in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many families book their Summer rental homes during Thanksgiving and Christmas gatherings. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property owner whether your vacationing group qualifies for a reduced rate.
• Management companies and individual rental owners frequently offer customers an option to purchase vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which normally costs 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed trip time as a result of medical-related issues or weather, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance might be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for details.
• Find a copy of your local Crystal Coast area magazine upon checking in. If your rental property doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers. In addition to great local articles, travel guide magazines contain coupons for local accommodations, restaurants and tours.

How to select the perfect vacation rental in the Crystal Coast area:

• Start by having your group agree to dates and a max budget.
• Decide how many beds and the bed configuration your family needs. Affordable Half Duplex in Emerald Isle has 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed types is generally available on booking pages. If not, reach out to the property management company before reserving the rental. Remember that most listings specify the max. guest capacity, which typically includes sofa beds in living rooms.
• Does your family require particular amenities? Most rental search websites include amenity lists and search filters. Amenity filters help you quickly remove less-optimal properties.
• Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for persons with disabilities. Confirm all required amenities are available and included before reserving a rental.
• Are you traveling with furry, four-legged family members? Although a number of vacation homes allow pets or animals, guidelines and costs vary per property. Type of pet, size and breeds may be limited. Remember to ask your host before booking, and study your agreement! Additional fees or charges could be applied to your invoice.

Additional considerations:

• Review check in & check out procedures before leaving home. Save the directions to your smartphone, and take a printed backup.
• To make certain damages aren't attributed to your family's stay, record any problem areas upon check in. Make contact with the property manager immediately to record any issues. If there is a dispute, having a record of problems and contact attempts will be valuable.
• Property managers are there to help! Don't be shy to ask questions during your stay.
• Respect your neighbors. Often times, surrounding homes are occupied by local residents. Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking regulations can make a stay significantly more pleasurable.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Neighbors can often point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to launch your kayaks, have a great night out, or the best spots for BBQ?
• Lock your rental while you are out. Protect your property!
• Double-check the vacation property to confirm that you've packed all personal items at departure. Remember to check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden belongings. Clean the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Please make sure to walk through the property one final time and look for any damage. We recommend walking through with the property manager whenever possible. If the manager isn't available, take photos and video of the property to record its condition.
• Did your group have a fantastic stay? Many rental management companies make it easy for customers to provide feedback. If your rental and/or host was fantastic, they always love to hear your praise. If anything was imperfect and they failed to correct it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make a note as part of your comments.
