How to find the best Atlantic Beach vacation rental experience:

When to reserve a Crystal Coast rental & When to go:

• Summer months are the most expensive season along the coast of NC. To find the best value, consider changing your family's Crystal Coast vacation week to the Spring or Fall shoulder seasons. May, September, and even October offer great weather, less crowded beaches, and reduced traffic. Many vacationers use this strategy to find larger homes within budget, or to book an oceanfront vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable during the high season. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Crystal Coast vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation on the coast? Christmas, Thanksgiving, and New Years Eve are great times to gather with family and friends at your favorite beach.
• The earlier your group can reserve a vacation rental, the better your selection will be. The most desirable rental homes are booked early. Booking your vacation property up to twelve months before your vacation is recommended. Christmas, Thanksgiving and New Years Eve are excellent times to search for and book your rental property.
• Property managers sometimes offer discounts or promotional rates for veterans and active duty military. Ask your property manager if special offers are available for your group.
• Booking websites frequently offer guests an option to buy trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed days as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for specifics.
• Find a copy of your local Crystal Coast visitors guide upon checking in. If your rental doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers. In addition to great articles, visitors guide magazines contain discounts for local tours and attractions.

• Select your vacation dates and spending budget.
• Decide how many beds and the bed configuration your group requires. “Castaways\" Atlantic Beach Family Fun Cottage has 3 bedrooms and 1 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our rental home search.
• Precise details about bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is often available on booking websites. If they are not listed, call the property management company before booking the property. Note that most properties list the max. guest capacity, which usually includes pull-out couches.
• If there's a particular Crystal Coast attraction you are crazy about, browse properties that are either nearby, or those that cater to your needs.
• Appropriate accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for persons with a disability. .
• Some properties allow pets, but some don't. Acceptable types of family pet, weight and breeds may be restricted, and additional fees may apply. Ask your host about pets before booking.

More considerations for your visit:

• Get the host's phone number and arrival/departure procedures for your rental property. Store the manager's information in your smartphone.
• Record any damages to the property during check in, and immediately e-mail them to the host. We specifically recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain built-in time stamps that are very helpful if a dispute arises.
• Hosts are great sources of help! Feel free to ask questions during your stay.
• Be respectful of your neighbors. Frequently, nearby homes are filled by local residents. Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking rules can make a stay significantly more pleasurable.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Locals can usually help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to book the best tours, have a great night out, or the best spots for bird watching?
• Ensure you protect the property owner (and your things!) by locking the property while you are out, just like you would at home.
• Don't leave anything behind! Before departing, walk through the rental property to confirm you've collected all personal items. Check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden belongings. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
