Beaufort vacation rental tips:

When to visit Beaufort & When to reserve a Beaufort rental home:

• The earlier your group can reserve a vacation home, the better your selection will be. The best properties are reserved early. Booking your rental property six - twelve months before your vacation dates is recommended. Christmas, Thanksgiving and New Years Eve are excellent times to plan and book your vacation rental.
• Summer months are high season in the Crystal Coast area. To get the best vacation home within your budget, we suggest booking in Fall or Spring. You'll enjoy lower rates, greater selection, gorgeous weather and the absence of large crowds at Crystal Coast restaurants, beaches, and activities. Many vacationers use this strategy to reserve larger homes, or to reserve an oceanfront rental that would otherwise be unavailable during June, July, and August.
• Some hosts and property managers offer rate reductions for veterans. Remember to ask your host or property manager if rate reductions are available for your family before you book.
• Property managers typically offer their guests an option to purchase vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which generally will cost you 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed vacation time as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for more information.
• Find a copy of your local Crystal Coast area magazine upon arrival. If your rental doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local shops and fuel stations. In addition to great articles, visitor guide magazines contain coupons for local tours and attractions.

Choosing the perfect vacation rental:

• Choose vacation week and max budget.
• Note the number bedrooms and the configuration your family needs. Sea breezes and sun in historic old town Beaufort, a block from the water! has 3 bedrooms and 1 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our search.
• Precise information regarding bedrooms and bed types is often available on booking websites. If not, reach out to the property management company before you reserve the property. Note that most properties list the maximum guest capacity, which usually includes sofa beds in living rooms. You will need to determine what is best for your trip.
• If your family is traveling with pets, you must reserve a pet-friendly property. Request details on breed, size, and type restrictions. Be aware that some property owners charge additional pet fees.
• Looking for specific amenities? Most websites include search filters with amenity lists. Filtering by amenity will allow you to quickly find the best rental.
• Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for the less-mobile. Make certain to ask about specialized equipment and wheel chair accessibility.

Additional considerations:

• Take a copy of the host's phone number and arrival/departure procedures for your rental home. Store the host's contact information in your smartphone.
• Hosts are great sources of help! Don't be shy to ask questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Lock your rental property while you're gone! Don't let thieves spoil your trip.
• Upon check-in, make note of any damages to the rental property and immediately alert the owner. Record all correspondence in case a dispute arises.
• Respecting quiet hours and parking rules can make a stay significantly more pleasurable. Be a good neighbor. You will increase your chance to make some new local friends, and resident neighbors are usually a great resource to find the best local spots.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Residents can typically help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to charter a fishing boat, have a great night out, or the best spots for fishing?
• Double-check every room of the rental property to confirm that you've packed everything on check-out day. Make sure to check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden items. Clean the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Document the condition of the property at check-out. We recommend taking a video during your final walk-through.
• Leave feedback! Property managers rely on good feedback to compel new reservations. They'll be much obliged for your feedback. Alternatively, if something went awry, other vacationing families will will be grateful for your review and help them have the best future vacation. Remember to be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the property manager could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded expeditiously to fix it.
