Wilmington rental home tips and tricks:

When to visit & When to book:

• Booking a rental in Fall or Spring months is an excellent way to save money on your vacation rental. Rental rates are lower, and you'll find a larger selection of suitable homes.

Thanksgiving and Christmas are great times to gather with friends and family at the beach.

Trip insurance is definitely a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for more information.

• Did you have a fantastic vacation? Many rental management companies make it easy for guests to provide feedback. If your rental and/or host was great, they would love to hear it. If anything was wrong and they failed to address it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make a note as part of your feedback.
