Carolina Beach vacation rental booking tips:

Finding your best deal:

• In the Carolina Beach area, The sooner you can reserve a home, the easier your search will be. The best rental properties are reserved early. Booking your vacation home six to twelve months before your vacation is recommended. Christmas, Thanksgiving and New Years Eve are excellent times to plan and reserve your vacation rental.
• Summer months are the most expensive season in coastal NC. To get the best value, shift your group's vacation to the Spring or Fall months. May, September, and even October offer excellent temperatures, , and greatly reduced traffic. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Carolina Beach vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday near the ocean? Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with friends and family at your favorite beach.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective vacation rental company or host whether your group qualifies for a reduced rate.
• Property managers usually offer their guests an option to buy trip insurance. Trip insurance, which will generally cost between 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed trip time as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather, as well as ensuing additional evacuation costs or charges, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for additional information.
• Many management companies supply Carolina Beach area visitor guide magazines which include money-saving deals, either offered independently by local companies, or through a relationship between the management company and the business itself. You can also find Carolina Beach visitors guide and coupon books at local shops and grocery stores.

How to choose the best rental in Wilmington:

• Select a group leader, choose your vacation dates, and choose a spending budget.
• Note the number bedrooms and the bed configuration your family requires. Downtown Wilmington Home: Walk to Cape Fear River! has 4 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Precise details about bedrooms and bed counts is often accessible on booking websites. If you don't see them listed, email the host before you reserve the home. Remember that most listings specify maximum guest capacity, which oftentimes includes pull out couches in living rooms.
• If your group is vacationing with pets, search for a rental that allows animals. Request information on breed, size, and type requirements. Note that some property owners require additional pet deposits and fees.
• Visiting for a specific event? Try a map search to find nearby rentals.
• Proper accessibility can make or break a vacation for those with limited mobility. Confirm all required amenities are available before reserving a rental.

More considerations:

• Add the host's contact information to your smartphone. Take a copy of check in/check out procedures.
• Property managers are available to help! Feel free to ask questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Lock your rental home while you are away. Keep your property safe!
• Record any damages to the property during check in, and immediately contact the owner. We especially recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain time stamps that are useful if there is a dispute.
• Be respectful of your neighbors. Often times, nearby homes are filled by local residents. Respecting late-night noise limits and parking regulations reduces conflict and allows everyone to enjoy their day.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Locals can usually help. Who better to ask where to find the best seashells, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for shopping?
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before departing, walk through the property to make sure you've collected all belongings. Re-check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden treasure. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Did your group have a terrific time? Most rental managers make it easy for customers to provide reviews. If your rental property and/or host was terrific, they will likely appreciate your kind words. If anything was wrong and they failed to address it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make a note as part of your review.
