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

Sticking to your rental budget:

• Book your vacation home as early as possible. Rental schedules usually open 12 months in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many families book their Summer vacation rentals during Winter holiday get-togethers. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Summer time is high season in Carolina Beach. Reserve your Carolina Beach rental home in the Fall or Spring shoulder seasons to get the benefit of beautiful weather while saving money and avoiding crowded roads, restaurants, and activities.
• Some hosts offer discounts for active duty military and veterans. It's always a good idea to check with your property manager to see if discounts are available for your group before you book.
• Booking websites typically offer guests an option to purchase trip insurance. Trip insurance, which will generally cost anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed days as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance might be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for more information.
• Often, rental management companies and vacation rental houses supply Carolina Beach area visitors guides which include special deals, either offered independently by local businesses, or through a relationship between the property management company and the business itself. You can also find Carolina Beach area magazine and coupon books at local shops and grocery stores.

How to select the perfect rental in the Carolina Beach area:

• Begin by choosing potential vacation weeks and a maximum budget.
• Determine how many beds and the bed configuration you need. Thalassa: Beautiful pet friendly seaside retreat! has 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms.
• Precise details about bedrooms and bed types is almost always available on booking pages. If not, email the property owner before you reserve the rental. Note that most properties list the maximum guest capacity, which usually includes sofa beds and bunks.
• If your group is bringing pets, you will need a pet-friendly rental. Make sure to ask for details on breed, size, and type requirements. Usually, property managers charge pet deposits and fees.
• Visiting for a single event or attraction? If so, use a map search to find nearby properties.
• Suitable accessibility can make or break a vacation for persons with a disability. .

Tips for your stay:

• Review arrival and departure procedures before leaving home. Take a printed copy, and add a note with the instructions to your smartphone.
• Property managers are there to help! Don't be shy to ask questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Lock your rental while you're out and about. Keep your property safe!
• To make sure that damages are not attributed to your family's stay, make a record of any problem areas when you arrive. E-mail the property manager right away to document any issues. If there is a dispute about legal responsibility later, having the recorded issues and contact attempts will be helpful.
• Respect the neighborhood. Often, adjacent homes are occupied by local residents. Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking regulations is the right thing to do.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Local residents can frequently 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 crabbing?
• Re-check the vacation property to make sure that you've packed all of your family's items at check-out. Check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden treasure. Clean the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Please make sure to walk through the property one final time and scan for any damage. We suggest walking through with the host whenever you can. If the manager is not available, remember to take video and pictures of the property to record its condition at check-out.
• Leave feedback! Property owners rely on great feedback to drive future bookings. They'll be grateful for your review. Alternatively, if something went wrong, other vacationers will be thankful you shared your feedback and help them have the best future vacation. Remember to be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the manager could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded quickly to remedy it.
