Our top Carolina Beach vacation rental tips:

Money saving strategies:

• Book your vacation rental as early as possible. Rental schedules often open twelve months in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many families reserve their Summer rental homes during Christmas and Thanksgiving get-togethers. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• June, July, and August are high season in the Carolina Beach area. To find the most suitable rental home within your budget, we recommend booking in the Fall or Spring. You'll benefit from lower rental rates, better selection, gorgeous weather and the absence of large crowds at your favorite Carolina Beach restaurants and activities. Many vacationers use this strategy to reserve larger homes, or to book an oceanfront rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during June, July, and August. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Carolina Beach vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation near the ocean? Christmas, Thanksgiving, and New Years Eve are great times to gather with friends and family at your favorite beach.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property owner or host if your vacationing group qualifies for a special promotion or discount.
• Property managers often offer customers an option to obtain vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which will generally cost between 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any days missed as a result of medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance might be a a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for specifics.
• Often, rental management companies supply Carolina Beach area visitor guide magazines which will include special offers, either offered independently by local businesses, or through a relationship between the property management company and the business itself. You can also find Carolina Beach visitors guide magazine and coupon books at local shops and grocery stores.

Finding the best rental home in Ocean Isle Beach:

• Decide how many bedrooms and the configuration you need. Big Blue - featuring a pool with tiki bar and spacious family areas has 14 bedrooms and 6 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our Carolina Beach rental home search.
• Specific information regarding bedrooms and bed counts & types is often available online. If you don't see them listed, reach out to the property management company before you reserve the rental. Remember that most listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which oftentimes includes pull-out couches.
• If your family is bringing pets, you'll need to search for a pet-friendly vacation rental. Get information on breed, weight, and type requirements. Usually, hosts charge additional pet fees.
• Are you visiting for a single attraction or event? If so, use a map search to browse nearby rentals.

More tips for your stay:

• Review arrival and departure procedures before leaving home. Take a printed copy, and save the directions to your smartphone.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a garage door opener, intercom or washer/dryer. Contact your owner. They are there to help! A brief text message can prevent many problems.
• Protect the property owner (and your things!) by locking the rental while you are out, just like you would back home.
• To make certain damages are not linked to your family's visit, record any problem areas upon check in. text the rental manager immediately to report any pre-existing damages. If there is a dispute, having a record of problems and contact attempts will be useful.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like disrespectful visitors disrupting your peaceful home. Employ the golden rule for common sense. If they like you, locals might even recommend great local food and places you would have never otherwise known!
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Local residents can usually help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to launch your kayaks, have a great night out, or the best spots for shopping?
• On check-out day, take a walk-through to make sure you did not leave anything behind. Re-check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden treasure. Clean out the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Go through the rental one final time and look for any damage. We recommend walking through with the host whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the manager is not available, ensure that you take pictures of the rental to record its condition at check-out.
• Remember to leave feedback! Property managers rely on great ratings to compel future bookings. They'll be thankful for your feedback. Alternatively, if something wasn't as described, other vacationers will be thankful you shared your review and help them have the best future vacation. Please be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the property manager had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded reasonably to remedy it.
