Strategies to get the best vacation property experience:

Getting the best rental home value:

• June, July, and August are the most expensive months in Wilmington. To find the best value, consider changing your vacation to the Spring or Fall shoulder seasons. May, September, and even October offer warmer weather, fewer crowds, and reduced traffic.
• The earlier you can book a rental home, the easier your search will be. The best vacation homes are reserved early. Booking your vacation property six to twelve months before your vacation dates is recommended. Winter holidays are excellent times to search for and book your rental property.
• Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property manager or host whether your family qualifies for a special rate.
• Management companies and individual rental owners typically offer their guests an option to add trip insurance. Trip insurance, which usually costs between 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed trip time as a result of medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel stay or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for program terms and fees.
• Look for your local Carolina Beach visitors guide upon arrival. If your rental doesn't have one, you can find them at local grocery stores and visitor centers. In addition to great local articles, visitor guide magazines have offers and deals for nearby accommodations and attractions.

Planning, selecting, and booking a perfectvacation home:

• Begin by selecting a vacation week and a max budget.
• Decide how many bedrooms and the bed configuration your group needs. “Bridgeview Bunkhouse” A Coastal Retreat! has 4 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our rentals search.
• Precise details about bedrooms and bed counts & types is almost always accessible on booking websites. Otherwise, contact the property manager before reserving your home. Remember that most property listings specify the max. guest capacity, which oftentimes includes sofa beds and bunks. You'll need to work out which bed configuration is right for your vacation group.
• Visiting for a specific event? If so, use a map search to find nearby rentals.
• Suitable accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for those with limited mobility. Make certain to inquire about specialized equipment and wheel chair accessibility.
• If your family is bringing pets, search for a property that allows animals. Ask for details on breed, weight, and type requirements. Note that some property owners charge additional pet fees.

Additional considerations:

• Get the owner's contact number and arrival/departure procedures for your rental home. Put the manager's information in your smartphone.
• During arrival, document any issues with the property and immediately contact the owner. Keep records of all correspondence just in case a dispute arises.
• Property managers are great sources of help! Feel free to ask questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking restrictions can make a stay significantly more pleasurable. You'll increase your chance to make some new local friends, and resident neighbors are an excellent source for finding the best local scenic spots.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Neighbors can often point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to order delicious takeout, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fishing?
• Protect the owner (and your stuff!) by locking the rental when you are gone, just like you would back home.
• Double-check every room of the property to confirm that you've packed everything on check-out day. Check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden items. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Walk through the rental one final time and scan for any damage. We recommend inspecting the property with the host whenever possible. If the property manager is not available, take pictures of the property to record its condition.
• Did you have a excellent stay? Many rental websites make it easy for clients to provide reviews. If your property and/or host was terrific, they would love to hear it. If anything was out of order 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 comments.
