How to get the best Carolina Beach vacation home experience:

When to visit & When to book:

• In the Carolina Beach area, The earlier you can book a vacation rental, the better your selection will be. The best rental homes are reserved very early. Booking your vacation property six - twelve months before your travel dates is recommended. Christmas, Thanksgiving and New Years Eve are excellent times to plan and book your rental.
• Summer months are the most expensive season in the Carolina Beach area. Booking your Carolina Beach vacation rental in Fall or Spring months is one of our best tips for saving money on your rental home. Rates are lower, and you'll find a better selection of desirable homes.
• Some owners offer discounts for active duty military and veterans. Check with your property manager to see if rate reductions are available for your family.
• Property management companies usually offer their guests an option to obtain trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which normally costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any days missed as a result of medical-related issues or weather, as well as hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for more information.
• Often, management companies supply Carolina Beach area visitor guide magazines that include special deals, either offered directly by local companies, or through a relationship with the rental management company and the business itself. You can also find Carolina Beach area magazine and coupon books at local gas stations and shopping centers.

Make a plan and pick the right Carolina Beach vacation home:

• Start by having your family agree to trip dates and a budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and the configuration your family needs. Coastal, Walkable Home in Historic Southport! has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Precise information regarding bedrooms and bed counts & types is almost always available online. If not, email the property owner before booking the rental. Note that most property listings specify the max. guest capacity, which typically includes sofa beds and bunks.
• If your group is vacationing with pets, you must book a property that allows animals. Get details on breed, weight, and type requirements. Be aware that some property owners charge pet deposits and fees.
• Are you visiting for a single attraction? If so, use a map search to find nearby rentals.
• Appropriate accessibility can make or break a vacation for persons with disabilities. Make certain to inquire about specialized equipment and wheel chair accessibility.

Tips for a great stay:

• Add the host's contact info to your smartphone. Take a copy of arrival/departure procedures.
• Hosts are great sources of help! Feel free to ask questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Ensure you protect the owner (and your things!) by locking the property while you are gone, just like you would back home.
• During arrival, make note of any issues with the rental property and immediately contact the owner. Record all correspondence just in case a dispute arises.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like unpleasant vacationers bothering your peace and quiet. Practice the golden rule for common sense. If they like you, locals might even recommend great beaches and places you would've never otherwise known about!
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Residents can usually help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to spend a rainy day, have a great night out, or the best spots for crabbing?
• Just prior to departing, take a walk-through to confirm you didn't leave anything behind. Re-check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden treasure. Clean the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Walk through the property one final time and look for any damage. We suggest inspecting the property with the host whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the host isn't available, take pictures of the property to record its condition.
• Leave feedback! Hosts rely on great feedback to propel future bookings. They'll be thankful for your review. Alternatively, if something wasn't as described, other vacationers will appreciate that you share your feedback and help them have the best future vacation. Remember to be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the host could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded quickly to fix it.
