Rental booking tips:

Find your best deal:

• Book your vacation rental as early as possible. Rental schedules often open 12 months in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many groups reserve their Summer rentals during Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years Eve get-togethers. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• To find the most suitable vacation home within your budget, we recommend reserving in Fall or Spring. You'll benefit from lower rates, greater selection, beautiful weather and the absence of large crowds at the beach and popular Carolina Beach attractions. Many vacationers use this strategy to find larger homes within budget, or to book an oceanfront vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during June, July, and August.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective host whether your family qualifies for a discount.
• Booking websites frequently offer renters an option to obtain vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which usually costs between 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any days missed as a result of medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as ensuing additional evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for additional information.
• Look for your local Carolina Beach visitors guide magazine when you arrive at the rental property. If your rental property doesn't have one, you can find them at local grocery stores and visitor centers. In addition to great local articles, visitors guides have discounts for local shops and restaurants.

Planning, picking, and booking the best Carolina Beach rental:

• Begin by selecting your a vacation week and a budget.
• Decide how many beds and what type of bedroom configuration your group needs. Barnacle Bungalow \/ 1330 W. Beach Drive - Coastal Vacation Resorts has 4 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Precise information about bedrooms and bed types is commonly accessible online. If they are not listed, contact the property owner before reserving the vacation property. Note that most listings specify maximum guest capacity, which typically includes pull out couches in living rooms. You will need to work out what configuration is right for your trip.
• If your family is bringing pets, you must reserve a pet-friendly vacation rental. Request information on breed, weight, and type restrictions. Usually, hosts require additional pet deposits and fees.
• Looking for specific amenities? Most rental websites include search filters for amenities.
• Appropriate accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for guests that require the use of a wheelchair. .

Advice for a smooth stay:

• Get the host's phone number and arrival/departure procedures for your rental property. Store the manager's contact information in your smartphone and wallet.
• Hosts are available to help! Don't be shy to ask any questions during your stay.
• Keep your rental home locked while you're away! Don't let crooks ruin your vacation.
• Record any issues with the rental during check in, and immediately send them to the owner. We especially recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain built-in time stamps that can be valuable if a dispute arises.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like disrespectful vacationers bothering your peaceful neighborhood. Apply the golden rule for best judgement. Happy residents may even recommend great beaches and scenic spots you would have never otherwise known about!
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Neighbors can frequently help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to take kids for a treat, have a great night out, or the best spots for fishing?
• At departure, take a walk-through to confirm you didn't forget anything. Check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden treasure. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Did you have a terrific stay? Many rental home management companies make it easy for customers to provide feedback. If your rental property and/or property management company was wonderful, they would love to hear it. If anything was wrong and they failed to fix it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make it a point as part of your feedback.
