When to book & When to go:

• In the Crystal Coast area, The sooner your group can book a vacation rental, the easier your search will be. The best vacation rentals are reserved early. Reserving your rental property 6-12 months before your vacation dates is recommended. Holiday gatherings are excellent times to plan and book your vacation rental.
• Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property manager or host if your vacationing group qualifies for a special promotion or discount.
• Booking websites usually offer customers an option to obtain vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which normally will cost anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed trip time as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel stay or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance can be a a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for specifics.

Use filters to narrow your rental search:

• Note the number bedrooms and the configuration your family requires. Bogue Sound Cottage with Boat Dock has 4 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Specific information about bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is commonly accessible online. If you don't see them listed, contact the host before booking the home. Remember that most properties list the maximum guest capacity, which typically includes sofa beds and bunks. You'll need to establish what configuration is right for your group.

Know before you go:

• Add the owner's contact info to your smartphone. Understand and take a copy of arrival/departure procedures.
• Note any damages to the property upon arrival, and immediately send them to the owner. We specifically recommend e-mails and text messages, as they usually contain built-in time stamps that are valuable if damages are assessed.

• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Residents can typically point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to find the best bike paths, have a great night out, or the best spots for fine dining?
• Ensure you protect the property owner (and your things!) by locking and securing the home while you are gone, just like you would at home.

Alternatively, if something wasn't right, other families will will be grateful for your experience and help them have the best future vacation. Remember to be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the manager had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded reasonably to solve it.
