Tips and Tricks to get the perfect Carolina Beach vacation home experience:

How to get the best rental value:

• June, July, and August are the most expensive months in Carolina Beach. Booking your vacation rental in the Fall or Spring shoulder seasons is an excellent way to save money on your vacation home. Rental rates are lower, and you'll find a larger selection of acceptable homes. Many vacationers use this method to find larger homes within budget, or to book a beach front vacation rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during the high season. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Carolina Beach vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday near the ocean? Thanksgiving and Christmas are great times to gather with family and friends at the beach.
• Book your vacation rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules generally become available twelve months in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many families reserve their Summer rental homes during Thanksgiving and Christmas gatherings. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property owner or host whether your vacationing group qualifies for a price reduction.
• Property managers often offer guests an option to buy vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which normally costs between 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed days as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather, as well as hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance might be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for program terms and fees.
• Look for your local Carolina Beach visitors guide magazine upon arrival. If your rental property doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers. In addition to great information, visitors guides contain money saving offers on local tours, shops, and attractions.

Planning, selecting, and booking the bestrental home:

• Select vacation dates and maximum budget.
• Note the number beds and what type of bedroom configuration your family requires. Oceanfront: King Bed, Private Beach, Big Pool has 3 bedrooms and 1 bathrooms.
• Specific information regarding bedrooms and bed types is usually available on booking websites. If you don't see them listed, contact the property manager before reserving your rental. Remember that most listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which often includes pull out couches in living rooms. You will need to work out what bed configuration is suitable for your trip.
• Is your group looking for particular amenities? Most rental search websites include search filters with amenity lists. Filtering by amenity will allow you to quickly find the best rental.
• Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for the less-mobile. Confirm all necessary amenities are available before reserving a rental
• If your group is traveling with pets, you must book a pet-friendly property. Ask for details on breed, weight, and type restrictions. Often, hosts require additional pet deposits and fees.

More tips for your visit:

• Add the owner's contact information to your phone. Understand and take a copy of arrival/departure procedures.
• During check-in, record any issues with the property and immediately contact the property manager. Record all correspondence in case a dispute arises.
• Hosts are available to help! Don't be shy to ask questions during your stay.
• Don't forget to respect your neighbors. Frequently, surrounding homes are occupied by local residents. Respecting quiet hours and parking regulations is the right thing to do.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Residents can typically help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to take kids for a treat, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fine dining?
• Protect the property owner (and your stuff!) by locking and securing the home when you are out, just like you would at home.
• Double-check every room of the rental property to confirm that you've packed all of your family's items at check-out. Re-check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden treasure. Clean out the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Document the condition of the property at check-out. We recommend taking a video during your final walk-through.
• Did your group have a great vacation? Many vacation rental websites make it easy for vacationers to provide comments. If your property and/or host was fantastic, they always love to hear your praise. If anything was wrong and they failed to fix it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make it a point as part of your feedback.
