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

When to visit Carolina Beach & When to reserve a Carolina Beach rental home:

Summer months are the most expensive season in the Carolina Beach area. Book your rental home in Spring or Fall to get the benefit of beautiful weather while saving money and avoiding crowds. Many vacationers use this strategy to find larger homes within budget, or to book an oceanfront vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable during the Summer months. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Carolina Beach vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday near the ocean? Thanksgiving and Christmas are great times to gather with friends and family at your favorite beach.
The earlier you can reserve a home, the easier your search will be. The best vacation rentals are reserved very early. Reserving your rental home six - twelve months before your vacation dates is recommended. Winter holidays are excellent times to search for and book your vacation rental.
Veterans and Active Duty Military members may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property manager whether your group qualifies for a discount.
Property managers usually offer customers an option to purchase vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which usually will cost you between 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any days missed as a result of medical-related issues or weather, as well as evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance might be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for more information.
Many management companies supply Carolina Beach area travel guide magazines which include money-saving offers, either offered independently by local businesses, or through a partnership between the rental 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.

Planning, selecting, and booking your prefectrental:

Choose a designated group leader, select your trip dates, and select a max budget.
Decide how many beds and the bed configuration your family requires. Surfside Retreat 5min walk to downtown CB has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our Carolina Beach rental home search.
Specific details about bedrooms and bed types is almost always available online. If they are not listed, contact the property management company before you reserve your rental. Remember that most listings specify maximum guest capacity, which often includes sofa beds. You'll need to determine what configuration is optimal for your vacation family.
If there's an individual Carolina Beach attraction you long to visit, look for properties that are either close by, or those that cater especially to your requirements.
Appropriate accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for those with limited mobility. .
Are you bringing the family pet? 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. Remember to ask the property manager before booking, and study your rental agreement! Additional fees or may be applied to your contract.

Advice for your stay:

Review arrival and departure procedures before traveling. Add a note with the instructions to your phone, and take a printed copy.
To ensure that no damages are attributed to your family's stay, record any problem areas during check in. E-mail the property manager immediately to relay your findings. If there is a dispute, having the recorded issues and contact attempts will be useful.
Property managers are available to help! Feel free to ask questions before, during, or after your stay.
Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like disagreeable vacationers bothering your life at home. Use the golden rule for common sense. Happy residents may even recommend great restaurants and scenic spots you would have never otherwise known about!
Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Locals can frequently help. Who better to ask where to launch your kayaks, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fine dining?
Protect the rental owner (and your stuff!) by locking and securing the home when you are away, just like you would at home.
At departure, complete a walk-through to confirm you haven't forget any personal items. Make sure to check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden belongings. Clean the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
Go through the rental one final time and scan for damage. We recommend walking through with the property manager whenever you can. If the manager is not available, remember to take photos and video of the rental to record its condition.
Did your family have a wonderful stay? Most rental home management companies make it easy for travelers to provide comments. If your property and/or property manager was fantastic, they will likely appreciate your kind words. If anything was wrong and they failed to correct it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make it a point as part of your feedback.
