Tips to get the perfect rental home experience:

Getting the most from your vacation rental budget:

• To get the most suitable rental for your budget, we recommend reserving in the Fall or Spring shoulder seasons. You'll benefit from lower rates, greater selection, gorgeous weather and the absence of large crowds at local restaurants, tours, and activities. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, or to reserve a beach front rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during June, July, and August.
• Reserve your rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules generally become available twelve months in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many groups reserve their Summer rental homes during Christmas and Thanksgiving get-togethers. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Some hosts offer rate reductions for veterans. Make sure to check with your property manager to see if rate reductions are available for your family before you book.
• Management companies and individual rental owners often offer customers an option to add vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which normally costs between 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed days as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for program terms and fees.
• Find a copy of your local Carolina Beach area magazine when you check-in. If your rental doesn't have one, you can find them at local shops and fuel stations. In addition to great information, travel guides have coupons for local shops and restaurants.

Choosing and booking a perfectvacation home:

• Select your dates and budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and the configuration your family requires. Five bedroom home on Bald Head Island's East Beach, make your next island getawa has 1 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our rental home search.
• Specific details about bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is commonly accessible on booking pages. If not, call the property management company before booking the rental. Remember that most property listings specify the max. guest capacity, which usually includes sofa beds. You'll need to determine what configuration is optimal for your family.
• If there's a certain Carolina Beach beach you crave, browse homes that are either close by, or those that cater to your requirements.
• Proper accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for guests with disabilities. Make certain to ask about specialized equipment and wheel chair accessibility.
• Do your family pets travel with you? 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. Remember to ask the property manager before booking, and study your agreement! Additional fees or charges applied to your contract.

More considerations for your visit:

• Add the owner's contact information to your smartphone. Understand and take a copy of arrival/departure procedures.
• To ensure that damages aren't linked to your family's stay, inspect the rental for any problem areas when you arrive. Make contact with the host immediately to record your findings. If there is a dispute, having the recorded issues and contact attempts will be very helpful.
• Property managers are available to help! Feel free to ask questions during your stay.
• Don't forget to respect your neighbors. Frequently, surrounding homes are occupied by permanent residents. Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking rules is the right thing to do.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Locals can usually help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to find the best seashells, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for shopping?
• Protect the owner (and your things!) by locking and securing the home while you are gone, just like you would back home.
• Double-check every room of the vacation property to confirm that you've packed everything on check-out day. Make sure to check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden treasure. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Inspect the rental a final time and look for damage. We suggest walking through with the property manager whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the host isn't available, remember to take video and pictures of the rental to record its condition.
• Did you have a excellent time? Many vacation rental websites make it easy for travelers to provide reviews. If your property and/or host was fantastic, they would love to hear it. If anything was defective and they failed to correct it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make a note as part of your review.
