Our top Vacation rental booking tips:

Find your perfect rental home:

• In the Crystal Coast area, The sooner you can book a vacation rental, the easier your search will be. The most desirable properties are reserved very early. Reserving your rental six - twelve months before your travel dates is recommended. Christmas, Thanksgiving and New Years Eve are excellent times to plan and reserve your rental property.
• June, July, and August are the most expensive months in coastal NC. Booking a rental in Spring or Fall is an excellent way to save on your vacation. Rates are lower, and you'll find a larger selection of acceptable properties. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, or to reserve an oceanfront rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during the Summer months.
• Some hosts offer rate reductions for active duty military and veterans. Ask your property manager if special offers are available for your group.
• Property managers usually offer customers an option to add trip insurance. Trip insurance, which generally costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed days as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for specifics.
• Often, rental management companies and vacation rental houses supply Crystal Coast area visitor guides which often include coupons, either offered directly by local companies, or through a partnership between the management company and the business itself. You can also find Crystal Coast visitors guide and coupon books at local shops and grocery stores.

• Choose your vacation week and maximum budget.
• Note the number bedrooms and the configuration your group needs. Dune Castle East: Family Friendly Oceanfront Beach Duplex With Adjoining Door has 5 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our Crystal Coast vacation rental search.
• Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is generally available on booking websites. If not, call the property management company before reserving the property. Remember that most property listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which usually includes pull out couches in living rooms. You'll need to establish what configuration is right for your vacation.
• If your family is traveling with pets, you'll need to find a rental that allows animals. Get specifics on breed, size, and type restrictions. Some property owners charge pet deposits and fees.
• Visiting for a single attraction? Try a map search to browse nearby rentals.
• Proper accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for those with limited mobility. Confirm all required amenities are available and included before reserving a rental.

Additional considerations:

• Get the owner's contact number and arrival/departure procedures for your rental home. Put the host's information in your smartphone and wallet.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a garage door opener, A/V setup or WIFI setup. Contact your host. They are there to help! A brief telephone call can prevent quite a few concerns.
• Keep your rental home locked while you are gone! Don't let burglars ruin your family vacation.
• Document any issues with the rental at check in, and immediately send them to the owner. We especially recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain built-in time stamps that can be useful if there is a dispute.
• Respect the neighborhood. Often, adjacent homes are occupied by permanent residents. Respecting quiet hours and parking policies reduces conflict and allows everyone to enjoy their day.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Neighbors can frequently help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to charter a fishing boat, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fishing?
• When it's time to leave, take a final walk-through to make sure you did not leave anything behind. Check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden items. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Go through the property a final time and keep an eye out for any damage. We suggest walking through with the property manager whenever possible. If the manager isn't available, remember to take video and pictures of the rental to record its condition at check-out.
• After your trip, leave a review! Property managers rely on good feedback to inspire new reservations. They'll be much obliged for your feedback. Alternatively, if something wasn't right, other vacationers will be thankful you shared your feedback find their best vacation home. Please be fair with your feedback If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the owner could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded reasonably to fix it.
