Here are a few kind words from past guests:
From Anna, August 2024
"Even better than the photos! We definitely appreciated our stay and cannot wait to come back. This was our 8th time in Emerald Isle and by far the best place we’ve stayed. The condo itself is striking and has anything you could need. We adored sitting out in the back porch overlooking the pool and reading in the swing chairs out front. The beach was a very short walk away! We will definitely come back."

From Sayna, September 2024

Tips and Tricks to get the best vacation home experience:

Sticking to your rental home budget:

• Book your vacation home as early as possible. Rental schedules often become available twelve months in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many families reserve their Summer rentals during holiday gatherings. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Summertime is high season in the Crystal Coast area. To find the best value, try shifting your family's Crystal Coast trip dates to the Spring or Fall months. May, September, and October offer great temperatures, , and reduced traffic. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Crystal Coast vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday near the ocean? Thanksgiving and Christmas are great times to gather with loved ones at the beach.
• Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property manager or host if your vacationing group qualifies for a special promotion or discount.
• Management companies and individual rental owners often offer renters an option to purchase vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which commonly will cost between 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed vacation time as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather, as well as hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for additional information.
• Find a copy of your local Crystal Coast visitors guide upon checking in. If your rental doesn't have one, you can find them at local shops and fuel stations. In addition to great local information, visitor guides contain coupons for local restaurants, attractions, and tours.

Choosing and booking a perfect Crystal Coast vacation home:

• Begin by choosing your vacation dates and a spending budget.
• Determine how many beds and the configuration you need. Steps to Beach & Pool! 3BR Emerald Isle Condo w/ Arcade – Perfect for Families has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our rental home search.
• Precise details about bedrooms and bed counts & types is generally available on booking websites. If you don't see them listed, email the property management company before you reserve the vacation home. Note that most property listings specify maximum guest capacity, which typically includes pull-out couches.
• If your group is traveling with pets, filter your search for a pet-friendly vacation rental. Get details on breed, size, and type restrictions. Be aware that some property managers require additional pet deposits and fees.
• If there's a specific Crystal Coast beach you long to visit, search for rentals that are either close by, or those that cater especially to your desires.
• Appropriate accessibility can make or break a vacation for guests that require the use of a wheelchair. Confirm all necessary amenities are available and included before reserving a rental.

Considerations for your stay:

• Be sure you get the owner's contact number and arrival/departure procedures for your rental. Store the manager's contact information in your smartphone and wallet.
• Hosts are great sources of help! Don't be shy to ask any questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Keep the property locked while you're away! Don't let burglars ruin your family vacation.
• To ensure that no damages are linked to your visit, make a record of any problem areas upon check in. Contact the property manager right away to record any pre-existing damages. If there is a dispute about who is responsible, having a record of issues and contact attempts will be helpful.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like disrespectful vacationers disrupting your peaceful home life. Employ the golden rule for best judgement. Happy residents may even recommend great restaurants and attractions you would've not otherwise known about!
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Local residents can typically help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to enjoy a steak with a view, have a great night out, or the best spots for fine dining?
• On check-out day, take a walk-through to make sure you have not forget anything. Check dressers, closets, 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.
• Leave feedback! Hosts rely on great feedback to propel new reservations. They'll be grateful for your review. Alternatively, if something went awry, other vacationing families will will be grateful for your review find their best vacation home. Be fair with your review. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the host had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded expeditiously to solve it.
