Finding the best Holden Beach vacation property experience:

Getting the most from your vacation rental budget:

• June, July, and August are the most expensive months in the Carolina Beach area. To get the best rental home within budget, we highly recommend reserving in the Spring or Fall. You'll benefit from lower rates, better selection, gorgeous weather and the absence of large crowds at the beach and popular attractions. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Carolina Beach vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation on the coast? Christmas, Thanksgiving, and New Years Eve are great times to gather with family and friends at your favorite beach.
• The sooner you can book a vacation home, the easier your search will be. The best vacation rentals are booked very early. Reserving your vacation home six - twelve months before your vacation is recommended. Holiday gatherings are excellent times to plan and reserve your rental property.
• Some property management companies offer promotional rates for veterans and active duty military. Ask your property manager if special discounts are available for your group.
• Booking websites often offer their guests an option to obtain trip insurance. Trip insurance, which will generally cost anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any days missed as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as ensuing additional evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance might be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for details.
• Often, property management companies supply Carolina Beach area visitor guide magazines that include money-saving offers, either offered directly by local companies, or through a relationship between the management company and the business itself. You can also find Carolina Beach area magazine and coupon books at local shops and grocery stores.

Narrow your Search:

• To start, have your family agree to the best dates and a max budget.
• Note the number beds and the bed configuration your group requires. Hobbs Realty - Oceanfront w\/Heated Pool, Elevator, and Second Living Area has 6 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms.
• Precise information about bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is generally available on booking websites. If you don't see them listed, reach out to the property manager before reserving the home. Note that most listings specify maximum guest capacity, which usually includes sofa beds in living rooms.
• If there's a particular Carolina Beach attraction you are enamored with, search for rentals that are either nearby, or those that cater to your needs.
• Suitable accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for persons with disabilities. Confirm all necessary amenities are included before booking.
• Some rental properties allow pets, but some don't. Acceptable types of dog or cat, size and breeds may be restricted, and added fees may apply. Ask the property manager about allowable pet guidelines before booking.

Additional considerations:

• Be sure you get the host's phone number and arrival/departure procedures for your . Store the manager's information in your smartphone.
• To ensure that damages are not attributed to your family's stay, note any problem areas upon check in. E-mail the rental manager immediately to document any issues. If there is a dispute about who is responsible, having the recorded issues and contact attempts will be valuable.
• Hosts are there to help! Feel free to ask any questions during your stay.
• Be respectful of your neighbors. Often times, nearby homes are occupied by local residents. Respecting noise limits and parking rules can make a stay significantly more pleasurable.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Neighbors can often help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to grab the best tacos, have a great night out, or the best spots for fishing?
• Keep your rental home locked while you're away! Don't let thieves ruin your trip.
• Don't leave anything behind! Before you drive away, take a walk through the property to make sure you've collected everything. Re-check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden treasure. Clean the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Inspect the property a final time and scan for damages to contents or the property itself. We suggest inspecting the property with the host whenever you can. If the property manager isn't available, ensure that you take photos of the property to record its condition at check-out.
• Did you have a fantastic time? Many vacation rental websites make it easy for customers to provide reviews. If your rental property and/or host was fantastic, they would love to hear it. If anything was amiss and they failed to correct it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make a note as part of your feedback.
