Our top Rental property booking tips:

Sticking to a spending budget:

Book your rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules usually open twelve months in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many families reserve their Summer vacation rentals during Thanksgiving and Christmas get-togethers. Book before these holidays for best selection.
Summer months are the most expensive season in coastal NC. Booking a rental in the Fall or Spring shoulder seasons is an excellent way to save on your rental home. Rental rates are lower, and you'll find a better selection of acceptable homes. Many vacationers use this strategy to reserve larger homes, or to reserve a beach front rental that would otherwise be unavailable during June, July, and August.
Some property managers offer discounts for veterans. It's always a good idea to check with your host or property manager to see if special discounts are available for your family before you book.
Property management companies usually offer guests an option to buy vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which will generally cost 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any days missed as a result of medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance might be a a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for specifics.
Often, management companies supply Carolina Beach area travel guides that include money-saving offers, either offered independently by local companies, or through a relationship with the property management company and the business itself. You can also find visitors guide and coupon books at local gas stations and shopping centers.

Planning and choosing the perfect Carolina Beach rental home:

Select a group leader, choose your trip dates, and select a maximum budget.
Decide how many beds and the bed configuration your family needs. Drift Away-Beautiful-6BR\/5.5BA Oceanfront Home-Elevated Pool-Elevator-Sleeps16 has 7 bedrooms and 6 bathrooms.
Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is normally accessible on booking websites. If not, reach out to the property management company before you reserve the home. Note that most property listings specify maximum guest capacity, which usually includes pull-out couches and bunk beds.
Remember to include your furry companions! Although a number of vacation homes allow pets or animals, guidelines and costs vary per property. Allowable pet type, breed, and size are often limited. Make sure to ask before booking, and study your agreement! Extra fees or charges might be applied to your contract.
Are you visiting for a single event? If so, use a map search to locate nearby rentals.
Suitable accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for the less-mobile. .

Have a wonderful stay:

Add the property manager's contact info to your phone. Print and take a copy of arrival/departure procedures.
Hosts are available to help! Don't be shy to ask questions before, during, or after your stay.
Ensure you protect the property owner (and your stuff!) by locking the property when you are away, just like you would back home.
Upon arrival, note any issues with the property and immediately contact the host. Keep records of all coorespondence.
Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like loud vacationers disrupting your peace. Practice the golden rule for common sense. If they like you, locals might even recommend great restaurants and places you would've never otherwise known about!
Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Local residents can typically point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to go for the best drinks, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for bird watching?
Re-check every room of the property to confirm that you've packed all of your belongings at check-out. Make sure to check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden treasure. Clean out the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
Record a video to document the condition of the property.
Did your group have a excellent time? Most rental management companies make it easy for travelers to provide feedback. If your rental property and/or property management company was wonderful, they always love to hear your praise. If anything was inoperable and they failed to fix it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make it a point as part of your comments.
