Strategies to get the very best Carolina Beach vacation home experience:

When to book & When to go:

• In the Carolina Beach area, The earlier you can book a vacation rental, the better your selection will be. The best properties are reserved very early. Reserving your rental up to 12 months before your vacation is recommended. Holiday gatherings are excellent times to plan and book your rental home.
• Summer is the most expensive season in the Carolina Beach area. To find the best value, consider shifting your family's Carolina Beach vacation dates to the Spring or Fall months. May, September, and even October offer warmer temperatures, less crowded beaches, and reduced traffic. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, or to book a beach front vacation rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during June, July, and August.
• Owners sometimes offer discounts or promotional rates for veterans and active duty military. Ask your property manager if special offers are available for your group.
• Booking websites typically offer guests an option to purchase vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which normally costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed vacation time as a result of medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel stay or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance might be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for details.
• Many rental management companies and vacation rental houses supply Carolina Beach area visitors guide magazines that include coupons, either offered independently by local companies, or by way of a relationship with the management company and the business itself. You can also find Carolina Beach area magazine and coupon books at local shops and grocery stores.

• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts & types is generally accessible on booking websites. If they are not listed, email or call the host before booking the property. Remember that most properties list the maximum guest capacity, which often includes pull out couches in living rooms.
• If your group is vacationing with pets, you'll need to book a pet-friendly property. Ask for details on breed, weight, and type restrictions. Be aware that some hosts require additional pet deposits and fees.
• Visiting for a single event? If so, use a map search to locate nearby properties.
• Appropriate accessibility can make or break a vacation for the less-mobile. Confirm all required amenities are included before reserving a rental.

Some things to know before you go:

• Add the property manager's contact info to your phone. Take a copy of arrival/departure procedures.
• Hosts are there to help! Feel free to ask any questions during your stay.

• Re-check the rental property to make sure that you've packed all belongings at check-out. Check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden treasure. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Document the condition of the property at check-out. We recommend taking a video during your final walk-through.
• Leave a review! Property managers rely on excellent feedback to drive future bookings. They'll be much obliged for your feedback. Alternatively, if something went awry, other vacationers will appreciate that you share your experience and help them have the best future vacation. Remember to be objective.
