Our top Crystal Coast rental home tips and tricks:

How to get the best rental value:

• Summer time is high season in Emerald Isle. Book your Crystal Coast vacation in the Spring or Fall to enjoy beautiful weather while saving money and avoiding crowds. Many vacationers use this strategy to reserve larger homes, or to book a beach front rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during the Summer.
• In the Crystal Coast area, The sooner your group can book a vacation rental, the easier your search will be. The best vacation homes are reserved very early. Reserving your vacation property six - twelve months before your travel dates is recommended. Christmas, Thanksgiving and New Years Eve are excellent times to search for and book your rental.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective vacation rental company or host whether your vacationing group qualifies for a special rate.
• Property managers typically offer guests an option to obtain vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which normally costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed vacation time as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for specifics.
• Often, property management companies supply Crystal Coast area visitor guide magazines which will include money-saving offers, either offered directly by local businesses, or through a relationship with the rental management company and the business itself. You can also find visitors guide and coupon books at local gas stations and shopping centers.

Finding the best vacation home in Emerald Isle:

• Select a group leader, select your vacation dates, and select a spending budget.
• Decide how many beds and the bed configuration your family needs. Footprints, Oceanfront House in Emerald Isle, NC! has 8 bedrooms and 6 bathrooms.
• Specific information about bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is almost always accessible online. If you don't see them listed, email the property management company before you reserve the rental. Remember that most listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which frequently includes sofa beds.
• Is your family looking for particular amenities? Most rental search websites include search filters with amenity lists.
• Proper accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for persons with disabilities. Confirm all necessary amenities are available before booking.
• If your family is traveling with pets, you'll need to search for a property that allows animals. Get details on breed, size, and type restrictions. Some hosts require additional pet deposits and fees.

More considerations for your visit:

• Be sure you get the host's phone number and arrival/departure procedures for your rental. Put the host's contact information in your smartphone and wallet.
• During arrival, make note of any damages to the rental property and immediately alert the host. Keep records of all coorespondence.
• Hosts are great sources of help! Don't be shy to ask any questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like loud visitors bothering your home life. Employ the golden rule for common sense. Happy residents may even recommend great restaurants and scenic spots you would've not otherwise known about!
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Locals can usually help. Who better to ask where to get the best seafood, have a great night out, or the best spots for shopping?
• Lock your vacation home while you are out and about. Protect your property!
• Don't leave anything behind! Before you drive away, take a walk through the rental to reconfirm you've collected all belongings. Remember to check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden items. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Inspect the rental one final time and look for any damage. We advise walking through with the property manager whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the manager is not available, remember to take pictures of the property to record its condition at check-out.
• Did your family have a great time? Many rental home management companies make it easy for customers to provide feedback. If your rental property and/or host was fantastic, they would love to hear it. If anything was amiss and they failed to correct it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make it a point as part of your feedback.
