Tricks and tips for getting the best Carolina Beach vacation property experience:

Getting the best rental value:

• Book your Carolina Beach rental home in Fall or Spring to enjoy beautiful weather while saving money and avoiding crowded roads, restaurants, and activities. Many vacationers use this method to find larger homes within budget, or to book an oceanfront vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during the Summer months.
• Book your rental as early as possible. Rental schedules often become available 12 months in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many groups book their Summer vacation rentals during Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years Eve get-togethers. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Some owners offer discounts for veterans. It's always a good idea to check with your property manager to see if special offers are available for your group before you book.
• Property management companies frequently offer renters an option to buy trip insurance. Trip insurance, which generally will cost you between 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed trip time as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance can be a a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for details.
• 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 shops and visitor centers. In addition to great local information, visitor guides contain coupons for nearby accommodations, tours and attractions.

How to pick the perfect vacation home in the Carolina Beach area:

• Begin by selecting your trip dates and a budget.
• Determine how many beds and what type of bedroom configuration you need. Lowe Tide: Oceanfront Classic House in East Beach has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our rentals search.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is almost always accessible on booking pages. If they are not listed, email or call the property management company before booking the rental. Remember that most properties list the max. guest capacity, which typically includes sofa beds in living rooms.
• Visiting for a specific attraction or event? Use a map search to locate nearby properties.
• Appropriate accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for those with limited mobility. Confirm all required amenities are available and included before booking.
• If your group is vacationing with pets, you'll need to search for a pet-friendly vacation rental. Ask for specifics on breed, weight, and type requirements. Usually, property managers require additional pet deposits and fees.

Tips for your stay:

• Put the manager's information in your smartphone.
• During arrival, note any issues with the rental property and immediately contact the host. Record all correspondence in case a dispute arises.
• Property managers are there to help! Feel free to ask any questions during your stay.
• Don't forget to respect your neighbors. Often times, adjacent homes are filled by local residents. Respecting quiet hours and parking policies is the right thing to do.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Local residents can typically point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to charter a fishing boat, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for bird watching?
• Protect the property owner (and your things!) by keeping the rental locked up when you are gone, just like you would at home.
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before you drive away, walk through the rental to make sure you've collected all personal items. Remember to check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden items. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Go through the property a final time and keep an eye out for any damage. We suggest walking through with the property manager whenever you can. If the manager is not available, remember to take video of the rental to record its condition.
• Did your family have a excellent vacation? Most rental home management companies make it easy for clients to provide comments. If your property and/or host was great, they always love to hear your praise. If anything was defective and they failed to fix it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make it a point as part of your review.
