New Bern rental home booking tips:

How to get the best rental value:

• Book your vacation rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules generally become available 12 months in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many families reserve their Summer vacation rentals during Winter holiday gatherings. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• June, July, and August are high season in New Bern. To find the most suitable rental for your budget, we strongly suggest booking in Fall or Spring months. You'll enjoy lower rates, better selection, gorgeous weather and the absence of large crowds at Pamlico area restaurants, beaches, and activities.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property manager or host if your group qualifies for a discount.
• Management companies and individual rental owners typically offer guests an option to buy vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which will generally cost anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed days as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as ensuing additional evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for additional information.
• Often, management companies and vacation rental houses supply Pamlico area area travel guide magazines which include money-saving offers, either offered independently by local businesses, or by way of a relationship with the property management company and the business itself. You can also find visitors guide and coupon books at local gas stations and shopping centers.

Finding the perfect vacation home in the Pamlico area area:

• Start by choosing your a vacation week and a maximum budget.
• Decide how many bedrooms and the configuration your group needs. The Cozy Bear Bungalow has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Precise information about bedrooms and bed counts is usually available online. If you don't see them listed, reach out to the property manager before you reserve the vacation home. Note that most listings specify the max. guest capacity, which typically includes sofa beds. You'll need to work out what configuration is best for your vacation family.
• If your family is bringing pets, you'll need to search for a pet-friendly property. Ask for details on breed, weight, and type requirements. Often, property managers require additional pet deposits and fees.
• If there's a certain Pamlico area destination you are enamored with, search for properties that are either close by, or those that cater especially to your desires.
• Suitable accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for persons with disabilities. Remember to confirm all necessary amenities are available and included before booking

More tips for your stay:

• Review check in & check out procedures before traveling. Save the instructions to your phone, and take a printed backup.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a garage door opener, television set or kitchen appliance. Contact your owner. They are there to help! A brief text message prevents many concerns.
• Keep your rental home locked while you're out! Don't let crooks ruin your family vacation.
• During check-in, document any issues with the property and immediately alert the host. Record all correspondence just in case a dispute arises.
• Respecting quiet hours and parking regulations can make a stay more pleasurable. Be a good neighbor. You will magnify your chance to make some new local friends, and resident neighbors can be an excellent resource to find the best local spots.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Locals can often help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to see a beautiful sunrise or sunset, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fishing?
• Double-check every room of the rental property to confirm that you've packed all personal items at check-out. Re-check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden items. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Please make sure to walk through the property one final time and scan for any damage. We advise walking through with the property manager whenever you can. If the host is not available, ensure that you take pictures of the property to record its condition.
• After your trip, leave a review! Property managers rely on excellent ratings to inspire more bookings. They'll be grateful for your feedback. Alternatively, if something went awry, other families will be thankful you shared your experience find their best vacation rental. Remember to be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the property manager had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded reasonably to solve it.
