Booking the best vacation rental experience:

When to reserve a Carolina Beach rental & When to go:

• The sooner you can book a vacation home, the better your selection will be. The most desirable rental homes are reserved early. Reserving your rental property up to 12 months before your vacation dates is recommended. Christmas, Thanksgiving and New Years Eve are excellent times to plan and reserve your rental home.
• To get the best value, change your vacation to the Spring or Fall seasons. May, September, and even October offer great temperatures, , and reduced traffic. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Carolina Beach vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation on the coast? Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with friends and family at the beach.
• Some hosts and property managers offer discounts for veterans. It's always a good idea to check with your host or property manager to see if special offers are available for your family before you book.
• Property managers usually offer guests an option to purchase trip insurance. Trip insurance, which will generally cost 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed vacation time as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for specifics.
• Often, rental management companies supply Carolina Beach area visitor guide magazines which include coupons, either offered independently by local businesses, or through a relationship between the management company and the business itself. You can also find Carolina Beach visitors guide and coupon books at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers.

Filter your search:

• Select a group leader, choose your vacation week, and choose a spending budget.
• Decide how many beds and what type of bedroom configuration your family needs. Relaxing Screened Porch, Hot Tub, and Walk to the Beach has 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our search.
• Precise information regarding bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is generally accessible on booking websites. If you don't see them listed, reach out to the host before reserving the property. Note that most properties list maximum guest capacity, which usually includes sofa beds.
• If your group is traveling with pets, search for a pet-friendly property. Make sure to ask for details on breed, weight, and type restrictions. Be aware that some property managers charge pet deposits and fees.
• Does your family require unique amenities? Most websites include search filters with amenity lists. Use these filters to your advantage to find the perfect rental home.
• Appropriate accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for guests that require the use of a wheelchair. Confirm all necessary amenities are available and included before reserving a rental.

Know before you go:

• Be sure you get the host's contact number and arrival/departure procedures for your .
• Property managers are available to help! Don't be shy to ask questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Lock your vacation home while you are out and about. Protect the owner's property and your things!
• During check-in, make note of any issues with the property and immediately alert the owner. Keep records of all coorespondence.
• Respect your neighbors. Often, adjacent homes are occupied by local residents. Respecting quiet hours and parking rules reduces conflict and allows everyone to enjoy their day.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Neighbors can frequently point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to find the best seashells, have a great night out, or the best spots for bird watching?
• Re-check every room of the vacation property to confirm that you've packed all of your family's items at departure. Check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden treasure. Clean the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Please make sure to walk through the property a final time and scan for damage. We recommend walking through with the property manager whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the property manager isn't available, take video of the rental to record its condition at check-out.
• Did your group have a terrific time? Most rental managers make it easy for customers to provide comments. If your rental property and/or property manager was terrific, they would love to hear it. If anything was amiss and they failed to address it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make a note as part of your comments.
