Booking the best Crystal Coast vacation property experience:

Get the most from your rental home budget:

• June, July, and August are the most expensive months along the coast of NC. Booking a rental in the Fall or Spring shoulder seasons is one of our best tips for saving money on your rental home. Rates are lower, and you'll find a larger selection of acceptable properties.
• In the Crystal Coast area, The earlier you can book a rental home, the better your selection will be. The best properties are booked very early. Reserving your rental home up to 12 months before your travel dates is recommended. Holiday gatherings are excellent times to search for and book your rental home.
• Some owners offer rate reductions for veterans and active duty military. Make sure to check with your property manager to see if special offers are available for your group before you book.
• Management companies and individual rental owners often offer their guests an option to buy trip insurance. Trip insurance, which will generally cost 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed vacation time as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for specifics.
• Look for your local Crystal Coast area magazine upon arrival. If your rental property doesn't have one, you can find them at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers. In addition to great articles, visitor guides contain discounts for nearby accommodations, restaurants and tours.

How to pick the perfect rental home:

• Select a designated group leader, choose your vacation week, and choose a maximum budget.
• Determine how many beds and what type of bedroom configuration your family requires. Beautiful First Floor Oceanfront Condo Steps to Beach and Pool has 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our search.
• Specific information about bedrooms and bed types is generally accessible online. If they are not listed, call the host before booking the vacation home. Remember that most properties list the max. guest capacity, which often includes sofa beds and bunks.
• If there's a certain Crystal Coast destination you crave, look for rentals that are either near by, or those that cater to your needs.
• Appropriate accessibility can make or break a vacation for the less-mobile. Make certain to ask about wheel chair entry, pool lifts and specialized equipment needs.
• Do your family pets travel with you? 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! Pet fees or charges could be applied to your invoice.

Advice for a great stay:

• Review arrival and departure procedures before traveling. Save the instructions to your phone, and take a printed copy.
• To make certain that damages aren't attributed to your family's stay, make a record of any problem areas upon check in. text the host right away to relay any damages. If there is a dispute about legal responsibility later, having the recorded problems and contact attempts will be helpful.
• Property managers are great sources of help! Don't be shy to ask questions during your stay.
• Be respectful. Often, adjacent homes are filled by local residents. Respecting late-night noise limits and parking policies is the right thing to do.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Neighbors can typically help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to find the best bike paths, have a great night out, or the best spots for shopping?
• Ensure you protect the owner (and your things!) by locking the rental when you are away, just like you would at home.
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before departing, walk through the property to confirm you've collected all personal items. Check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden belongings. Clean out the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Please make sure to walk through the rental one final time and scan for any damage. We advise inspecting the property with the host whenever you can. If the manager isn't available, take video and pictures of the property to record its condition.
• Did your group have a great time? Many rental managers make it easy for clients to provide comments. If your rental and/or property management company was terrific, they would love to hear about it. If anything was inoperable and they failed to fix it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make it a point as part of your review.
