Finding the best Wilmington vacation property experience:

When to reserve a Carolina Beach rental home & When to go:

• Summer months are high season in Wilmington. Booking your vacation rental in Spring or Fall is our best tip for saving money on your rental home. Rental rates are lower, and you'll find a larger selection of acceptable properties. Many vacationers use this strategy to reserve larger homes, or to book an oceanfront rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during the high season.
• The earlier your group can book a rental home, the better your selection will be. The best rental properties are reserved early. Booking your rental up to 12 months before your vacation dates is recommended. Christmas, Thanksgiving and New Years Eve are excellent times to search for and reserve your rental property.
• Owners sometimes offer special rates for active duty military and veterans. Ask your host or property manager if special offers are available for your group.
• Management companies and individual rental owners usually offer customers an option to add trip insurance. Trip insurance, which normally costs 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed trip time as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance can be a a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for specifics.
• Many rental management companies supply Carolina Beach area visitors guide magazines which often include money-saving offers, either offered independently by local businesses, or through a relationship between the rental management company and the business itself. You can also find Carolina Beach visitors guide and coupon books at local gas stations and shopping centers.

More tips for your visit:

• Store the owner's information in your smartphone.
• To make certain that damages are not attributed to your stay, record any problem areas during check in. message the rental manager immediately to relay any pre-existing damages. If there is a dispute about legal responsibility later, having the recorded concerns and contact attempts will be very helpful.

• Lock your rental home while you're out. Protect the owner's property and your things!
• Double-check the property to confirm that you've packed all belongings at departure. Check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden items. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Inspect the rental a final time and look for damage. We advise inspecting the property with the host whenever possible. If the host is not available, remember to take photographs of the property to record its condition.
• Leave feedback! Property managers rely on good reviews to compel future bookings. They'll be grateful for your review. Alternatively, if something went awry, other vacationers will appreciate that you share your experience and help them have the best future vacation. Please be objective.
