Our top Vacation rental home tips:

How to get the best rental home value:

• Book your vacation home as soon as possible. Rental schedules generally become available 12 months in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many groups book their Summer vacation rentals during Thanksgiving and Christmas gatherings. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• June, July, and August are high season in Carolina Beach. Booking your Carolina Beach vacation home in Fall or Spring is our favorite way to save money on your vacation home. Rates are lower, and you'll find a better selection of desirable homes. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, or to reserve a beach front vacation rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during the high season. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Carolina Beach vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday on the coast? Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with loved ones at your favorite beach.
• Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property management company or host if your family qualifies for a special promotion or discount.
• Property management companies often offer guests an option to buy vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which will generally cost between 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed time as a result of medical-related issues or weather, as well as evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance can be a a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for additional information.
• Often, management companies supply Carolina Beach area visitors guides which will include coupons, either offered independently by local companies, or by way of a relationship between the management company and the business itself. You can also find visitors guide and coupon books at local gas stations and shopping centers.

Finding the best vacation home in the Carolina Beach area:

• First, have your family commit to dates and a budget.
• Decide how many bedrooms and the bed configuration you need. Dreamy Bungalow on the Beach with nearby Lake, Marina, and State Park! Free Wifi has 2 bedrooms and 1 bathrooms.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed types is almost always accessible online. If not, email the host before you book the vacation home. Remember that most property listings specify the max. guest capacity, which oftentimes includes sofa beds. You'll need to work out what is best for your family.
• If your family is vacationing with pets, you must book a property that allows animals. Make sure to ask for information on breed, weight, and type restrictions. Some hosts require additional pet deposits and fees.
• If there's a specific Carolina Beach attraction you simply love, keep an eye out for rentals that are either close by, or those that cater to your requirements.
• Suitable accessibility can make or break a vacation for those with limited mobility. Remember to confirm all necessary amenities are included before booking

Know before you go:

• Review check in & check out procedures before leaving home. Add a note with the directions to your phone, and take a printed copy.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a hot tub, intercom or WIFI setup. Contact your property manager. They are there to help! A brief text message can prevent a lot of problems.
• Protect the rental owner (and your things!) by locking and securing the home when you are out, just like you would back home.
• To make sure no damages are attributed to your family's stay, inspect for any problem areas upon check in. Get in touch with the rental manager right away to report any damages. If there is a dispute, having a record of problems and contact attempts will be valuable.
• Respect your neighbors. Often times, surrounding homes are occupied by permanent residents. Respecting quiet hours and parking rules reduces conflict and allows everyone to enjoy their day.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Local residents can often help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to get the best breakfast in town, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for bird watching?
• On check-out day, complete a walk-through to confirm you did not forget any personal items. Check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden belongings. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Did your family have a fantastic stay? Many rental managers make it easy for travelers to provide feedback. If your property and/or host was wonderful, they would love to hear it. If anything was defective and they failed to correct it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make it a point as part of your feedback.
