Tricks and tips to get the best Wilmington vacation rental experience:

When to visit Wilmington & When to reserve a Carolina Beach rental home:

• June, July, and August are the most expensive months in the Carolina Beach area. To get the best rental for your budget, we suggest reserving in the Fall or Spring shoulder seasons. You'll benefit from lower rental rates, greater selection, beautiful weather and the absence of large crowds at the beach and popular Carolina Beach attractions. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, or to reserve a beach front rental that would otherwise be unavailable during the Summer.
• Book your vacation rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules usually become available twelve months in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many families book their Summer rental homes during holiday get-togethers. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Hosts and Property managers sometimes offer discounts for active duty military and veterans. Remember to ask your host or property manager if special discounts are available for your family.
• Property managers usually offer renters an option to obtain trip insurance. Trip insurance, which usually will cost between 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed vacation time as a result of medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unanticipated hotel or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for program terms and fees.
• Find a copy of your local visitors guide when you arrive at the rental property. If your rental home doesn't have one, you can find them at local shops and fuel stations. In addition to great local articles, travel guide magazines have deals for local tours and attractions.

Use filters to search efficiently:

• Start by selecting a vacation week and a max budget.
• Decide how many beds and what type of bedroom configuration you need. Airlie Road Cottage renovated with double front porches, palm trees and WiFi has 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our Carolina Beach vacation rental search.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is often available online. If not, email the property owner before booking your home. Remember that most listings specify the max. guest capacity, which typically includes sofa beds.
• If there's a certain Carolina Beach destination you long to visit, search for homes that are either close by, or those that cater especially to your desires.
• Proper accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for those with limited mobility. Confirm all required amenities are included before booking.
• Some rentals allow pets, and others do not. Allowable types of family pet, size and breeds may be restricted, and additional costs may apply. Ask your host about pets before booking.

Some things to know before you go:

• Take a copy of the host's contact number and check in/check out procedures for your rental home. Store the host's contact information in your smartphone.
• During arrival, record any damages to the property and immediately alert the owner. Record all coorespondence.
• Hosts are great sources of help! Don't be shy to ask questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like disrespectful visitors bothering your peace and quiet. Apply the golden rule for common sense. If they like you, locals might even recommend great beaches and places you would have never otherwise known about!
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Residents can often help. Who better to ask where to grab the best tacos, have a great night out, or the best spots for BBQ?
• Lock your vacation home while you're away. Protect the owner's property and your things!
• Don't leave anything behind! Before departing, walk through the property to make sure you've collected all personal items. Make sure to check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden belongings. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Inspect the rental one final time and scan for any damage. We advise inspecting the property with the property manager whenever possible. If the host is not available, take photographs of the property to record its condition at check-out.
• Remember to leave a review! Hosts rely on great ratings to drive future reservations. They'll be grateful for your review. Alternatively, if something wasn't as described, other vacationers will be thankful you shared your feedback find their best rental home. Please be fair with your feedback If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the host could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded reasonably to remedy it.
