Tips to get the best Carolina Beach vacation home experience:

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

• The sooner you can book a rental home, the better your selection will be. The best rental homes are booked early. Reserving your vacation home 6-12 months before your vacation dates is recommended. Holiday gatherings are excellent times to plan and reserve your rental.
• Summer months are the most expensive season along the coast of NC. Reserve your Carolina Beach rental in the Fall or Spring shoulder seasons to enjoy beautiful weather while saving money and avoiding crowds. Many vacationers use this method to find larger homes within budget, or to book a beach front rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during June, July, and August. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Carolina Beach vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday near the ocean? Thanksgiving and Christmas are great times to gather with family and friends at the beach.
• Some owners offer promotional rates for active duty military and veterans. Remember to ask your host or property manager if rate reductions are available for your group.
• Booking websites typically offer guests an option to purchase trip insurance. Trip insurance, which generally will cost you between 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any days missed as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather, as well as hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for additional information.
• Find a copy of your local Carolina Beach area magazine upon checking in. If your rental property doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local shops and fuel stations. In addition to great local stories, visitor guide magazines contain money saving offers on nearby attractions, tours, restaurants, and shops.

Make a plan and choose a perfectrental:

• Select a group lead, choose your vacation dates, and choose a max budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and the configuration your family requires. Admiral's Quarters: Cozy Oceanfront Home with Covered Porch has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Specific information regarding bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is usually accessible online. If they are not listed, reach out to the property manager before reserving your home. Remember that most properties list the maximum guest capacity, which oftentimes includes pull-out couches and bunk beds. You'll need to work out what is best for your family.
• Are you traveling with furry, four-legged family members? Although a number of vacation homes allow pets or animals, guidelines and costs vary per property. Type of pet, size and breeds may be limited. Ask your property manager before booking, and study your agreement thoroughly! Additional fees or might be applied to your contract.
• If there's a particular Carolina Beach destination you are crazy about, look for properties that are either nearby, or those that cater to your needs.
• Suitable accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for guests with disabilities. Remember to confirm all required amenities are included before reserving a rental

Tips for a smooth stay:

• Review check in & check out procedures before traveling. Take a printed copy, and save the directions to your phone.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a garage door opener, stereo or washer/dryer. Contact your host. They are there to help! A brief text message prevents lots of difficulties.
• Lock your rental home while you're away. Protect your property!
• To ensure that damages aren't attributed to your family's stay, inspect the rental for any problem areas upon check in. Contact the host right away to relay your findings. If there is a dispute about who is responsible, having the recorded issues and contact attempts will be valuable.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like troublesome visitors bothering your home life. Apply the golden rule for best judgement. If they like you, locals might even recommend great local food and places you would have never otherwise known!
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Neighbors can often help. Who better to ask where to launch your kayaks, have a great night out, or the best spots for bird watching?
• Don't leave anything behind! Before you drive away, walk through the rental property to confirm you've collected all personal items. Make sure to check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden treasure. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Inspect the property one final time and scan for damage. We advise walking through with the property manager whenever possible. If the host is not available, take pictures of the rental to record its condition at check-out.
• Did your family have a wonderful vacation? Most vacation rental websites make it easy for vacationers to provide reviews. If your property and/or host was terrific, they would love to hear it. If anything was inoperable and they failed to fix it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make a note as part of your review.
