Tricks and tips for getting the best rental home experience:

Getting the most from your rental budget:

• The earlier you can book, the better your selection will be. The best vacation homes are booked very early. Booking your rental 6-12 months before your vacation dates is recommended. Christmas, Thanksgiving and New Years Eve are excellent times to plan and reserve your vacation rental.
• Summer is the most expensive season in the Carolina Beach area. Reserve your rental home in Fall or Spring to get the benefit of warm weather while saving money and avoiding crowded roads, restaurants, and activities. Many vacationers use this strategy to find larger homes within budget, or to book a beach front rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during the Summer.
• Some property managers offer promotional rates for active duty military and veterans. Remember to ask your property manager if rate reductions are available for your group.
• Booking websites often offer guests an option to obtain vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which will generally cost 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed trip time as a result of medical-related issues or weather, as well as evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for additional information.
• Look for your local Carolina Beach visitors guide when you arrive at the rental property. If your rental property doesn't have one, you can find them at local grocery stores and visitor centers. In addition to great local stories, travel guide magazines contain coupons for local accommodations, tours and attractions.

Make a plan and choose a perfect Carolina Beach rental:

• First and foremost, have your group select a vacation week and a spending budget.
• Decide how many beds and the configuration your group needs. Newly updated, Sleeps 12. Ocean\/Jinks Creek views - quick walk to beach has 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms.
• Specific information about bedrooms and bed types is commonly available online. If you don't see them listed, email the host before you reserve your home. Note that most properties list maximum guest capacity, which often includes sofa beds and bunks. You'll need to determine which bed configuration is best for your vacation family.
• Some rentals allow pets, and others don't. Allowable types of pet, weight and breeds may be restricted, and additional fees may apply. Ask your host about your furry family members before booking.
• If there's a specific Carolina Beach beach you love, keep an eye out for homes that are either nearby, or those that cater especially to your desires.
• Proper accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for persons with disabilities. Make certain to inquire about wheel chair accessibility, pool lifts and specialized equipment needs.

During your stay:

• Take a copy of the owner's phone number and arrival/departure procedures for your rental property.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a hot tub, A/V setup or coffee maker. Contact your property manager. They are there to help! A brief text message can prevent many difficulties.
• Protect the owner (and your things!) by keeping the rental locked up while you are away, just like you would at home.
• To make certain no damages are attributed to your family's visit, inspect the property for any problem areas during check in. Make contact with the host right away to document your findings. If there is a dispute, having a record of problems and contact attempts will be very helpful.
• Be respectful of your neighbors. Frequently, adjacent homes are filled by permanent residents. Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking rules can make a stay significantly more pleasurable.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Residents can often point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to spend a rainy day, have a great night out, or the best spots for BBQ?
• Double-check every room of the rental property to confirm that you've packed all personal items on check-out day. Re-check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden items. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Inspect the rental a final time and look for any damage. We advise inspecting the property with the property manager whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the manager isn't available, ensure that you take video of the property to record its condition.
• Leave feedback! Property owners rely on great ratings to propel more bookings. They'll be thankful for your feedback. Alternatively, if something wasn't right, other families will be thankful you shared your experience and help them have the best future vacation. Remember to be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the host had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded quickly to fix it.
