How to book the best Carolina Beach rental experience:

How to get the best value:

• Summer is high season in Carolina Beach. To find the best value, try changing your family's Carolina Beach vacation to the Spring or Fall months. May, September, and even October offer pleasant temperatures, , and greatly reduced traffic.
• Book your vacation home as soon as possible. Rental schedules often open a year in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many families book their Summer rentals during Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years Eve get-togethers. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective vacation rental company or host if your family qualifies for a special rate.
• Property management companies often offer guests an option to add vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which normally costs 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed trip time as a result of medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance might be a a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for more information.
• Look for 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 shops and visitor centers. In addition to great articles, visitor guide magazines have discounts for local attractions, tours, restaurants, and shops.

Filter your rental search:

• Select a group lead, choose your vacation dates, and select a budget.
• Decide how many bedrooms and the configuration your group requires. Elegant beachfront escape with private boardwalk, free WiFi, & furnished balcony has 5 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms.
• Precise information about bedrooms and bed types is often available on booking websites. Otherwise, email or call the host before reserving the vacation home. Remember that most properties list the maximum guest capacity, which usually includes sofa beds and bunks. You will need to work out what is suitable for your group.
• Is your family looking for special amenities? Most websites include amenity lists and search filters. Filtering by amenity will allow you to quickly find your ideal rental.
• Proper accessibility can make or break a vacation for persons with disabilities. Make certain to inquire about specialized equipment and wheel chair accessibility.
• If your group is vacationing with pets, filter your search for a pet-friendly rental. Get information on breed, weight, and type requirements. Note that some property owners charge pet deposits and fees.

More tips for your stay:

• Review arrival and departure procedures before leaving home. Save the directions to your phone, and take a printed backup.
• To make sure damages aren't attributed to your stay, make a record of any problem areas during arrival. text the host right away to document your findings. If there is a dispute about who is responsible, having a record of concerns and contact attempts will be useful.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a hot tub, stereo or thermostat. Contact your host. They are there to help! A brief text message prevents quite a few problems.
• Be respectful of your neighbors. Often times, adjacent homes are filled by permanent residents. Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking regulations is the right thing to do.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Residents can frequently help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to enjoy a steak with a view, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for BBQ?
• Lock your rental home while you are out and about. Protect your property!
• Just prior to departing, take a walk-through to make sure you have not forget any personal items. Remember to check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden items. Clean the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Document the condition of the property at check-out. We recommend taking a video during your final walk-through.
• Did you have a fantastic vacation? Most vacation rental websites make it easy for clients to provide feedback. If your property and/or host was terrific, they always love to hear your praise. If anything was inoperable and they failed to correct it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make a note as part of your feedback.
