Tips to get the best Crystal Coast rental experience:

Finding your best deal:

• Book your vacation rental as early as possible. Rental schedules usually become available 12 months in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many families book their Summer vacation rentals during holiday get-togethers. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Booking a rental in Spring or Fall is one of our best tips for saving money on your vacation. Rental rates are lower, and you'll find a better selection of acceptable properties. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, or to book a beach front vacation rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during the Summer months. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Crystal Coast vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday near the ocean? Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with friends and family at your favorite beach.
• Hosts sometimes offer special rates for active duty military and veterans. Make sure to check with your host or property manager to see if discounts are available for your family.
• Management companies and individual rental owners often offer guests an option to obtain vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which generally will cost anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed time as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for additional information.
• Many management companies supply Crystal Coast area travel guides which include special deals, either offered independently by local businesses, or by way of a partnership between the rental management company and the business itself. You can also find Crystal Coast visitors guide magazine and coupon books at local shops and grocery stores.

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

• Select vacation week and max budget.
• Note the number bedrooms and the bed configuration your group requires. Carolina Dune West! Oceanfront Delight in Emerald Isle, Family & Pet Friendly has 4 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed types is generally available on booking pages. Otherwise, email or call the property manager before you book your home. Note that most properties list the max. guest capacity, which usually includes pull-out couches.
• If your family is traveling with pets, you must book a property that allows animals. Ask for details on breed, size, and type restrictions. Often, property owners charge additional pet fees.
• Visiting for a specific attraction or event? Use a map search to find nearby rentals.
• Appropriate accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for persons with disabilities. Confirm all necessary amenities are included before reserving a rental

Have a wonderful stay:

• Review arrival and departure procedures before traveling. Take a printed copy, and add a note with the instructions to your phone.
• Hosts are great sources of help! Feel free to ask questions during your stay.
• Ensure you protect the rental owner (and your stuff!) by keeping the rental locked up when you are away, just like you would back home.
• Upon check-in, record any issues with the property and immediately alert the host. Keep records of all coorespondence.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like disagreeable vacationers bothering your peaceful home. Employ the golden rule for common sense. If they like you, locals might even recommend great local food and scenic spots you would've never otherwise known!
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Locals can often help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to spend a rainy day, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for BBQ?
• Double-check every room of the rental property to confirm that you've packed all of your belongings at departure. Remember to check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden items. Clean the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Walk through the property a final time and scan for damages to contents or the property itself. We advise inspecting the property with the host whenever you can. If the manager is not available, remember to take photos and video of the rental to record its condition at check-out.
• Did your group have a great time? Many rental home management companies make it easy for guests to provide reviews. If your property and/or property management company was terrific, they always love to hear your praise. If anything was defective and they failed to fix it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make it a point as part of your comments.
