Tricks and tips to get the best Carolina Beach vacation rental experience:

Getting the best rental home value:

• Book your rental as early as possible. Rental schedules usually open a year in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many groups reserve their Summer vacation rentals during holiday gatherings. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Summer is the most expensive season in Carolina Beach. To get the best value, consider changing your vacation to the Spring or Fall months. May, September, and even October offer great temperatures, less crowded beaches, and greatly reduced traffic. Many vacationers use this strategy to reserve larger homes, or to reserve a beach front rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during the Summer months.
• Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property management company or host if your vacationing group qualifies for a price reduction.
• Management companies and individual rental owners usually offer renters an option to obtain vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which generally costs between 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed time as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather, as well as ensuing additional evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance can be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for additional information.
• Many management companies supply Carolina Beach area visitor guide magazines which include special offers, either offered independently by local businesses, or by way of a partnership between the rental management company and the business itself. You can also find Carolina Beach area magazine and coupon books at local gas stations and shopping centers.

How to select the best vacation home in the Carolina Beach area:

• Choose your dates and budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and the configuration your family requires. Thalassa: Beautiful pet friendly seaside retreat! has 6 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms.
• Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed types is usually available on booking pages. Otherwise, call the property owner before you book the vacation home. Remember that most properties list the max. guest capacity, which oftentimes includes sofa beds.
• If your family is bringing pets, you'll need to search for a rental that allows animals. Ask for information on breed, size, and type requirements. Note that some property managers charge pet deposits and fees.
• Visiting for a specific event? Use a map search to browse nearby properties.
• Proper accessibility can make or break a vacation for persons with disabilities. Make certain to inquire about specialized equipment and wheel chair accessibility.

Considerations for your stay:

• Get the property manager's phone number and check in/check out procedures for your .
• Hosts are available to help! Feel free to ask any questions during your stay.
• Keep the property locked while you are out! Don't let crooks spoil your vacation.
• To make sure damages aren't attributed to your stay, record any problem areas upon your arrival. Contact the property manager right away to document your findings. If there is a dispute about who is responsible, having the recorded problems and contact attempts will be helpful.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like troublesome visitors bothering your quiet neighborhood. Apply the golden rule for common sense. If they like you, locals might even recommend great restaurants and scenic spots you would've never otherwise known!
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Local residents can often help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to go for the best drinks, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for shopping?
• At departure, take a walk-through to make sure you have not forget anything. Make sure to check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden treasure. Remove everything from 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 time? Most rental home management companies make it easy for guests to provide comments. If your rental and/or host was terrific, they would love to hear about it. If anything was out of order and they failed to correct it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make it a point as part of your feedback.
