How to find the best Bald Head Island rental home experience:

Getting the most from your vacation rental budget:

• The earlier your group can reserve a vacation rental, the better your selection will be. The best rental properties are booked very early. Reserving your rental home up to 12 months before your travel dates is recommended. Holiday gatherings are excellent times to search for and reserve your rental.
• June, July, and August are high season in Bald Head Island. To get the most suitable rental within budget, we strongly suggest booking in Spring or Fall. You'll enjoy lower rates, better selection, gorgeous weather and the absence of large crowds at restaurants, beaches, and activities.
• Some property managers offer discounts for active duty military and veterans. Check with your host or property manager to see if special discounts are available for your group.
• Booking websites typically offer their guests an option to obtain trip insurance. Trip insurance, which costs between 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed time as a result of medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel stay or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance might be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for program terms and fees.
• Many property management companies supply Carolina Beach area visitor guides which often include special deals, either offered directly by local companies, or by way of a relationship between the rental management company and the business itself. You can also find Carolina Beach area magazine and coupon books at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers.
