Tips and Tricks to get the perfect vacation rental experience:

Getting the best value:

• Booking your Carolina Beach vacation rental in Fall or Spring months is our favorite way to save money on your vacation home. Rental rates are lower, and you'll find a larger selection of suitable homes. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, or to reserve a beach front vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during the Summer.
• Book your rental as early as possible. Rental schedules generally open a year in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many groups reserve their Summer vacations during Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years Eve gatherings. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Property management companies sometimes offer discounts or promotional rates for veterans and active duty military. Ask your property manager if rate reductions are available for your group before you book.
• Property managers often offer guests an option to buy vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which normally costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed vacation time as a result of medical-related issues or weather, as well as hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance can be a a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for additional information.
• Look for your local Carolina Beach area magazine upon arrival. If your rental property doesn't have one, you can find them at local shops and fuel stations. In addition to great local articles, visitors guides contain discounts for nearby attractions, tours, restaurants, and shops.

How to choose and book the right Carolina Beach rental home:

• Start by having your group agree to vacation dates and a budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and what type of bedroom configuration you need. Ready for your Family Retreat - Private Canal Access & Steps from the Beach has 5 bedrooms and 6 bathrooms.
• Precise information regarding bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is generally accessible on booking websites. Otherwise, call the property owner before reserving the vacation property. Note that most listings specify maximum guest capacity, which typically includes sofa beds.
• If there's an individual Carolina Beach attraction you are crazy about, browse properties that are either near by, or those that cater especially to your needs.
• Proper accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for persons with a disability. .
• Remember to include your furry companions! Although a number of vacation homes allow pets or animals, guidelines and costs vary per property. Allowable pet type, breed, and size are often limited. Ask your property manager before booking, and study your agreement thoroughly! Additional pet fees or may be applied to your contract.

• Review check in & check out procedures before traveling. Add a note with the instructions to your phone, and take a printed copy.
• During check-in, note any issues with the property and immediately alert the owner. Keep records of all correspondence in case a dispute arises.
• Hosts are available to help! Feel free to ask any questions during your stay.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like unpleasant visitors disrupting your quiet neighborhood. Employ the golden rule for best judgement. If they like you, locals might even recommend great local food and places you would've not otherwise known!
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Locals can typically help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to see a beautiful sunrise or sunset, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for shopping?
• Keep your rental home locked while you are out! Don't let burglars ruin your vacation.
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before departing, walk through the rental property to confirm you've collected all personal items. Check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden items. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Go through the rental one final time and keep an eye out for any damage. We suggest inspecting the property with the host whenever possible. If the manager is not available, take video of the property to record its condition at check-out.
• Did your group have a fantastic time? Many rental home management companies make it easy for travelers to provide feedback. If your rental and/or host was great, they will likely appreciate your kind words. If anything was wrong and they failed to address it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make it a point as part of your review.
