Tricks and tips to get the perfect vacation rental experience:

When to book & When to go:

• Book your vacation rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules usually become available a year in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many families book their Summer vacations during Winter holiday get-togethers. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• To find the most suitable rental home within budget, we suggest reserving in the Fall or Spring. You'll benefit from lower rates, greater selection, gorgeous weather and the absence of giant crowds at the beach and popular Crystal Coast attractions.
• Some property management companies offer special rates for veterans. It's always a good idea to check with your host or property manager to see if rate reductions are available for your group before you book.
• Management companies and individual rental owners typically offer guests an option to obtain trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which costs 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for days missed as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for additional information.
• Find a copy of your local Crystal Coast visitors guide when you arrive at the rental property. If your rental home doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers. In addition to great local articles, visitor guides have discounts for local restaurants, attractions, and tours.

How to choose the perfect vacation rental in the Crystal Coast area:

• Start by having your family decide on a vacation week and a spending budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and the bed configuration your group needs. Secluded waterfront home that is 5 min away from downtown Beaufort has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed types is generally accessible on booking websites. If they are not listed, email or call the host before you book the vacation home. Note that most property listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which typically includes sofa beds and bunks.
• If your family is traveling with pets, search for a pet-friendly property. Ask for specifics on breed, weight, and type restrictions. Often, hosts require additional pet deposits and fees.
• Visiting for a single attraction or event? If so, use a map search to locate nearby rentals.
• Appropriate accessibility can make or break a vacation for the less-mobile. .

• Ensure you protect the property owner (and your things!) by keeping the rental locked up while you are out, just like you would back home.
