Our top Carolina Beach rental home tips and tricks:

Sticking to your rental home budget:

• June, July, and August are the most expensive months in Holden Beach. Booking in Spring or Fall is a good way to save on your rental home. Rental rates are lower, and you'll find a better selection of acceptable properties. Many vacationers use this method to find larger homes within budget, or to book an oceanfront vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable during the high season.
• The sooner your group can book a rental home, the better your selection will be. The most desirable vacation homes are booked very early. Reserving your vacation property six to twelve months before your vacation dates is recommended. Winter holidays are excellent times to plan and book your rental.
• Hosts sometimes offer rate reductions for active duty military and veterans. Make sure to check with your property manager to see if discounts are available for your family before you book.
• Property managers frequently offer renters an option to add trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which usually costs between 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed days as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for additional information.
• Often, management companies and vacation rental houses supply Carolina Beach area visitors guides that include money-saving offers, either offered directly by local companies, or by way of a relationship with the rental management company and the business itself. You can also find Carolina Beach area magazine and coupon books at local shops and grocery stores.

Filter your rental search:

• To start, have your group agree to trip dates and a budget.
• Decide how many beds and the bed configuration your family needs. Holden Beach House w\/ Boat Dock: Steps to Beach! has 6 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our rentals search.
• Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed types is usually accessible online. If they are not listed, email the property management company before booking your rental. Note that most properties list the max. guest capacity, which often includes sofa beds.
• Are you visiting for a specific event? Try a map search to find nearby rentals.
• Suitable accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for those with limited mobility. Make certain to inquire about specialized equipment and wheel chair accessibility.
• If your family is bringing pets, filter your search for a property that allows animals. Get details on breed, size, and type requirements. Note that some property managers charge pet deposits and fees.

More tips for your stay:

• Take a copy of the property manager's phone number and arrival/departure procedures for your rental home.
• To make sure that damages are not linked to your stay, inspect for any problem areas upon check in. text the rental manager immediately to record any issues. If there is a dispute about legal responsibility later, having the recorded concerns and contact attempts will be very helpful.
• Property managers are available to help! Feel free to ask any questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Respect the neighborhood. Frequently, nearby homes are filled by local residents. Respecting noise limits and parking rules can make a stay significantly more pleasurable.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Residents can often help. Who better to ask where to get the best seafood, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fishing?
• Lock your rental while you're out. Protect your property!
• When it's time to leave, take a walk-through to make sure you have not forget anything. Re-check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden items. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Go through the property a final time and scan for damage. We recommend walking through with the host whenever possible. If the host isn't available, take photos of the property to record its condition at check-out.
• Did your family have a terrific stay? Many vacation rental websites make it easy for clients to provide comments. If your rental property and/or property management company was wonderful, 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 comments.
