Strategies to get the perfect Carolina Beach vacation rental experience:

When to book & When to go:

• June, July, and August are the most expensive months in the Carolina Beach area. To book the best rental within your budget, we recommend reserving in the Fall or Spring shoulder seasons. You'll benefit from lower rates, better selection, gorgeous weather and the absence of large crowds at restaurants, beaches, and activities.
• The earlier you can reserve a home, the better your selection will be. The most desirable vacation rentals are reserved very early. Booking your rental property 6-12 months before your vacation dates is recommended. Winter holidays are excellent times to search for and book your vacation rental.
• Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective vacation rental company or host if your vacationing group qualifies for a special rate.
• Booking websites frequently offer customers an option to add vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which costs between 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed days as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather, as well as hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for program terms and fees.
• Often, property management companies supply Carolina Beach area visitors guides which will include coupons, either offered independently by local companies, or by way of a partnership between the property management company and the business itself. You can also find Carolina Beach area magazine and coupon books at local shops and grocery stores.

Planning and choosing the perfectvacation home:

• Start by choosing your potential vacation weeks and a spending budget.
• Note the number bedrooms and the bed configuration your family requires. 1BR\/1BA Efficiency Condo, Close to the Beach, Pool, Sleeps 4 has 2 bedrooms and 1 bathrooms.
• Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed types is generally available on booking pages. If you don't see them listed, email the property manager before reserving the rental. Note that most listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which usually includes pull out couches in living rooms.
• Does your group require unique amenities? Most rental websites include amenity lists and search filters. Filtering by amenity will allow you to quickly find the best rental home.
• Appropriate accessibility can make or break a vacation for the less-mobile. .
• Some rental properties allow pets, and others don't. Acceptable types of family pet, weight and breeds may be restricted, and added charges may apply. Ask the host about your furry family members before booking.

Advice for a wonderful stay:

• Get the owner's phone number and entry/exit procedures for your rental. Store the host's information in your smartphone.
• During arrival, document any damages to the property and immediately contact the property manager. Keep records of all coorespondence.
• Hosts are great sources of help! Feel free to ask any questions during your stay.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like unpleasant vacationers disrupting your peace. Apply the golden rule for common sense. If they like you, locals might even recommend great beaches and scenic spots you would've not otherwise known!
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Neighbors can frequently help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to find the fresh catch of the day, have a great night out, or the best spots for shopping?
• Protect the owner (and your things!) by locking and securing the home while you are out, just like you would back home.
• Double-check every room of the rental property to make sure that you've packed all belongings at check-out. Re-check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden items. Clean out the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Inspect the property a final time and scan for damage. We advise walking through with the property manager whenever you can. If the host isn't available, remember to take photos and video of the property to record its condition.
• Did you have a wonderful time? Many rental home management companies make it easy for clients to provide feedback. If your property and/or host was great, they would love to hear about it. If anything was out of order and they failed to correct it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make a note as part of your review.
