How to find the best Carolina Beach vacation rental experience:

Get the most from your vacation rental budget:

• June, July, and August are the most expensive months in the Carolina Beach area. To book the largest vacation home within your budget, we highly recommend reserving in Fall or Spring. You'll enjoy lower rental rates, better selection, beautiful weather and the absence of large crowds at Carolina Beach restaurants, tours, and activities. Many vacationers use this strategy to find larger homes within budget, or to reserve an oceanfront vacation rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during June, July, and August.
• The sooner your group can reserve a vacation home, the better your selection will be. The most desirable properties are reserved very early. Booking your rental home up to twelve months before your vacation is recommended. Winter holidays are excellent times to search for and reserve your rental home.
• Some owners offer discounts or promotional rates for veterans. Make sure to check with your property manager to see if rate reductions are available for your group.
• Property management companies typically offer their guests an option to add vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which commonly costs 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any days missed as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for program terms and fees.
• Look for your local Carolina Beach area magazine when you check-in. If your rental property doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local grocery stores and visitor centers. In addition to great local stories, visitors guide magazines have discounts for local tours, shops, and attractions.

How to choose and book the bestrental:

• To start, have your group choose trip dates and a budget.
• Note the number bedrooms and the bed configuration your group needs. 5 BR\/3BA Home - Oceanfront, RECENTLY UPGRADED, Sleeps 18 has 6 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is almost always available on booking websites. If you don't see them listed, reach out to the host before you book your rental. Remember that most property listings specify the max. guest capacity, which typically includes pull out couches in living rooms. You'll need to work out what bed configuration is best for your vacation.
• Is your group looking for particular amenities? Most rental search websites include search filters with amenity lists.
• Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for persons with disabilities. .
• Some properties allow pets, but others don't. Acceptable types of pet, size and breeds may be restricted, and additional charges may apply. Ask the property manager about allowable pet guidelines before booking.

Advice for a terrific stay:

• Take a copy of the owner's phone number and entry/exit procedures for your rental home. Store the host's contact information in your smartphone.
• Upon check-in, note any damages to the property and immediately alert the host. Keep records of all correspondence in case a dispute arises.
• Property managers are great sources of help! Don't be shy to ask questions during your stay.
• Respect your neighbors. Often, adjacent homes are filled by permanent residents. Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking policies reduces conflict and allows everyone to enjoy their day.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Local residents can frequently help. Who better to ask where to get the best seafood, have a great night out, or the best spots for BBQ?
• Protect the owner (and your stuff!) by keeping the rental locked up when you are away, just like you would back home.
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before you drive away, walk through the rental property to confirm you've collected all personal belongings. Check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden items. Clean the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Inspect the rental one final time and scan for any damage. We suggest inspecting the property with the property manager whenever possible. If the manager is not available, remember to take pictures of the rental to record its condition at check-out.
• Did your family have a terrific time? Many rental managers make it easy for clients to provide feedback. If your rental and/or host was great, they always love to hear your praise. If anything was imperfect and they failed to fix it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make a note as part of your review.
