Rental home booking tips:

Finding your best deal:

• The earlier you can book a vacation home, the better your selection will be. The best properties are reserved early. Reserving your vacation home six to twelve months before your vacation dates is recommended. Holidays such as Christmas and Thanksgiving are excellent times to plan and book your rental property.
• June, July, and August are high season in the Carolina Beach area. To find the best value, try changing your family's Carolina Beach vacation dates to the Spring or Fall seasons. May, September, and October offer excellent temperatures, less crowded beaches, and greatly reduced traffic. Many vacationers use this strategy to reserve larger homes, or to book a beach front vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during the Summer months. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Carolina Beach vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday near the ocean? Thanksgiving and Christmas are great times to gather with friends and family at your favorite beach.

Trip insurance can be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for details.
