Tips and Tricks to get the optimal vacation rental experience:

Get the most from your vacation rental budget:

• To find the best value, change your group's vacation to the Spring or Fall seasons. May, September, and even October offer great temperatures, , and reduced traffic. Many vacationers use this strategy to reserve larger homes, or to reserve an oceanfront rental that would otherwise be unavailable during the Summer months.
• The earlier you can reserve a vacation home, the better your selection will be. The best vacation homes are booked very early. Booking your rental up to twelve months before your vacation is recommended. Christmas, Thanksgiving and New Years Eve are excellent times to plan and reserve your vacation rental.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective host whether your family qualifies for a discount.
• Booking websites often offer their guests an option to add trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which will generally cost 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed days as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance might be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for details.
• Find a copy of your local Carolina Beach visitors guide upon checking in. If your rental home doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local shops and fuel stations. In addition to great local information, travel guide magazines contain deals for nearby accommodations and attractions.

Use filters to narrow your rental search:

• Select a group lead, select your dates, and choose a max budget.
• Decide how many bedrooms and the configuration you need. Oak Island Cottage: Minutes to Long Beach! has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Specific details about bedrooms and bed types is generally accessible online. If you don't see them listed, reach out to the property management company before reserving the home. Note that most property listings specify the max. guest capacity, which typically includes sofa beds in living rooms. You'll need to work out what configuration is right for your family.
• If there's a specific Carolina Beach beach you are crazy about, look for homes that are either close by, or those that cater especially to your desires.
• Suitable accessibility can make or break a vacation for the less-mobile. Make certain to ask about specialized equipment and wheel chair accessibility.
• If your group is traveling with pets, you must reserve a pet-friendly vacation rental. Make sure to ask for information on breed, size, and type restrictions. Often, property managers charge pet deposits and fees.

More tips for your visit:

• Get the owner's contact number and arrival/departure procedures for your rental property. We recommend storing the manager's information in your smartphone.
• At Check-in, document any damages to the rental property and immediately contact the owner. Record all coorespondence.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a hot tub, television set or coffee maker. Contact your property manager. They are there to help! A brief text message prevents lots of difficulties.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like disagreeable vacationers bothering your peaceful home life. Practice the golden rule for best judgement. If they like you, locals might even recommend great beaches and scenic spots you would have never otherwise known!
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Residents can usually help. Who better to ask where to find the best seashells, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for BBQ?
• Protect the property owner (and your things!) by keeping the rental locked up when you are out, just like you would at home.
• Don't leave anything behind! Before you drive away, take a walk through the rental property to confirm you've collected all belongings. Make sure to check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden treasure. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Go through the rental a final time and keep an eye out for any damage. We recommend inspecting the property with the host whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the host is not available, take pictures of the rental to record its condition.
• Did your group have a fantastic stay? Most rental home management companies make it easy for guests to provide reviews. If your rental property and/or property management company was wonderful, they will likely appreciate your kind words. If anything was wrong and they failed to address it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make a note as part of your comments.
