Rental property booking tips:

Get the most from your spending budget:

• Reserve your vacation rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules often open a year in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many groups reserve their Summer vacation rentals during Thanksgiving and Christmas get-togethers. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• To book the largest rental for your budget, we strongly suggest reserving in Fall or Spring months. You'll enjoy lower rates, greater selection, beautiful weather and the absence of large crowds at Carolina Beach restaurants, beaches, and activities.
• Property management companies sometimes offer special rates for veterans and active duty military. Ask your host or property manager if rate reductions are available for your group.
• Booking websites typically offer guests an option to add vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which normally costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed time as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather, as well as evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel stay or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for specifics.
• Find a copy of your local Carolina Beach visitors guide when you check-in. If your rental home doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local grocery stores and visitor centers. In addition to great information, visitors guides contain deals for nearby accommodations, tours and attractions.

Choosing the perfect rental home in Holden Beach:

• Start by choosing your potential vacation weeks and a spending budget.
• Determine how many beds and the bed configuration your group needs. Carefree By the Sea at Holden Beach has 4 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms.
• Precise information about bedrooms and bed counts is often available on booking websites. If they are not listed, contact the property management company before you reserve your home. Note that most property listings specify the max. guest capacity, which typically includes sofa beds. You'll need to establish what configuration is right for your vacation group.
• Are you traveling with furry, four-legged family members? Many vacation homes allow animals, but guidelines and restrictions apply. Allowable pet type, breed, and size are often limited. Ask your host before booking, and study your rental agreement! Pet fees or charges could be applied to your invoice.
• If there's a specific Carolina Beach destination you are crazy about, search for properties that are either near by, or those that cater to your requirements.
• Suitable accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for guests with disabilities. Remember to confirm all necessary amenities are available and included before booking

More considerations for your visit:

• Be sure you get the owner's contact number and arrival/departure procedures for your .
• Property managers are there to help! Feel free to ask questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Lock your rental property while you're out! Don't let thieves spoil your holiday.
• Make a record of any damages to the property upon arrival, and immediately contact the owner. We especially recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain built-in time stamps that are useful if damages are attributed to your stay.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like troublesome vacationers disrupting your peaceful home. Employ the golden rule for best judgement. Happy residents may even recommend great restaurants and attractions you would have not otherwise known about!
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Residents can frequently point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to find the best bike paths, have a great night out, or the best spots for bird watching?
• On check-out day, take a walk-through to make sure you didn't leave anything behind. Check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden items. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Inspect the rental a final time and scan for damage. We advise inspecting the property with the host whenever possible. If the host is not available, take photos of the rental to record its condition at check-out.
• After your trip, leave a review! Property owners rely on good ratings to inspire more reservations. They'll be grateful for your review. Alternatively, if something wasn't right, other vacationers will will be grateful for your experience and help them have the best future vacation. Remember to be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the manager could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded expeditiously to remedy it.
