Strategies to get the very best Crystal Coast rental experience:

Sticking to a rental budget:

• The earlier your group can book a vacation rental, the easier your search will be. The best vacation homes are reserved early. Reserving your vacation home 6-12 months before your vacation is recommended. Holidays such as Christmas and Thanksgiving are excellent times to plan and reserve your vacation home.
• Summer months are high season in the Crystal Coast area. Book your Crystal Coast vacation in Fall or Spring to enjoy gorgeous weather while saving money and avoiding crowded roads, restaurants, and activities. Many vacationers use this method to find larger homes within budget, or to book an oceanfront vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable during June, July, and August.
• Owners sometimes offer rate reductions for veterans. Remember to ask your host or property manager if special offers are available for your family before you book.
• Management companies and individual rental owners typically offer their guests an option to obtain vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which commonly costs between 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed days as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for specifics.
• Find a copy of your local Crystal Coast area magazine when you check-in. If your rental home doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local shops and fuel stations. In addition to great local articles, visitor guides contain money saving offers on local accommodations, tours and attractions.

How to choose the best vacation home in the Crystal Coast area:

• Select your dates and max budget.
• Decide how many beds and the configuration your family requires. Lovely Emerald Isle Home, Walk to Beach! has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Specific information about bedrooms and bed counts & types is usually available on booking websites. If not, contact the host before booking the property. Note that most properties list the max. guest capacity, which usually includes sofa beds and bunks. You will need to determine what bed configuration is right for your group.
• If your group is bringing pets, search for a property that allows animals. Get specifics on breed, weight, and type requirements. Note that some property owners require additional pet deposits and fees.
• Are you looking for specific amenities? Most rental websites include search filters with amenity lists. Amenity filters help you quickly remove less-optimal properties.
• Suitable accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for persons with disabilities. Make certain to ask about wheel chair accessibility, pool lifts and specialized equipment needs.

Have a great stay:

• Store the owner's information in your smartphone and wallet.
• Hosts are great sources of help! Feel free to ask questions during your stay.
• Keep the property locked while you're away! Don't let crooks ruin your trip.
• To make sure damages are not linked to your family's stay, make a record of any problem areas upon check in. Call the rental manager right away to document your findings. If there is a dispute about legal responsibility later, having a record of problems and contact attempts will be useful.
• Don't forget to respect your neighbors. Frequently, surrounding homes are filled by local residents. Respecting noise limits and parking rules reduces conflict and allows everyone to enjoy their day.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Locals can typically help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to go for the best drinks, have a great night out, or the best spots for crabbing?
• Don't leave anything behind! Before you drive away, take a walk through the property to confirm you've collected all personal items. Remember to check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden treasure. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Document the condition of the property at check-out. We recommend taking a video during your final walk-through.
• Did you have a excellent time? Many vacation rental websites make it easy for guests to provide reviews. If your property and/or host was great, they will likely appreciate your kind words. If anything was amiss and they failed to correct it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make it a point as part of your feedback.
