Tips and Tricks for getting the best Bald Head Island vacation property experience:

Finding the best rental home value:

• Reserve your vacation home as early as possible. Rental schedules generally open twelve months in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many groups book their Summer rental homes during Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years Eve gatherings. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Summer months are high season in the Carolina Beach area. To get the largest vacation home within your budget, we strongly suggest booking in the Fall or Spring. You'll benefit from lower rental rates, better selection, gorgeous weather and the absence of large crowds at Carolina Beach restaurants, beaches, and activities. Many vacationers use this method to find larger homes within budget, or to reserve a beach front rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during the Summer. 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 family and friends at the beach.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property manager or host if your family qualifies for a special promotion or discount.
• Property management companies usually offer renters an option to add vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which will generally cost anywhere between 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed vacation time as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance can be a a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for additional information.
• Many property management companies supply Carolina Beach area visitor guide magazines which include coupons, either offered independently by local companies, or through a relationship with the rental management company and the business itself. You can also find Carolina Beach visitors guide and coupon books at local gas stations and shopping centers.

Choosing and booking a perfect Carolina Beach rental:

• Begin by choosing trip dates and a maximum budget.
• Note the number beds and the bed configuration your group requires. Morning Light - Featured Home in 2010 Haven Magazine has 6 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our Carolina Beach rental home search.
• Precise information about bedrooms and bed counts is almost always available online. If they are not listed, contact the property owner before you reserve the property. Note that most properties list maximum guest capacity, which usually includes pull-out couches. You will need to establish what configuration is optimal for your group.
• Some rental properties allow pets, but others don't. Acceptable types of family pet, weight and breeds may be restricted, and added costs may apply. Ask the owner about allowable pet guidelines before booking.
• Are you visiting for a single event or attraction? Try a map search to find nearby properties.
• Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for guests with disabilities. Confirm all required amenities are included before reserving a rental

Tips for your stay:

• Be sure you get the host's phone number and entry/exit procedures for your . Store the host's contact information in your smartphone.
• Hosts are great sources of help! Feel free to ask any questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Protect the rental owner (and your things!) by keeping the rental locked up when you are out, just like you would back home.
• At Check-in, document any damages to the property and immediately contact the owner. Keep records of all correspondence in case a dispute arises.
• Don't forget to respect your neighbors. Frequently, adjacent homes are occupied by local residents. Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking policies is the right thing to do.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Residents can often help. Who better to ask where to launch your kayaks, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fishing?
• On check-out day, complete a walk-through to make sure you didn't leave anything behind. Check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden treasure. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Walk through the property a final time and look for any damage. We suggest inspecting the property with the host 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 terrific vacation? Most rental management companies make it easy for customers to provide comments. If your property and/or host was terrific, they always love to hear your praise. If anything was out of order and they failed to correct it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make a note as part of your comments.
