Tricks and tips to get the optimal rental home experience:

Getting the best rental value:

• Summer time is high season in Bald Head Island. To find the best value, consider shifting your vacation week to the Spring or Fall seasons. May, September, and even October offer pleasant temperatures, fewer crowds, 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 during the Summer. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Carolina Beach vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday near the ocean? Thanksgiving and Christmas are great times to gather with family and friends at the beach.
• Reserve your vacation home as early as possible. Rental schedules often become available a year in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many groups book their Summer rental homes during holiday gatherings. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Some owners offer discounts or promotional rates for veterans. Remember to ask your property manager if special discounts are available for your family before you book.
• Management companies and individual rental owners often offer their guests an option to add trip insurance. Trip insurance, which will generally cost anywhere between 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed trip time as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for specifics.
• Often, property management companies supply Carolina Beach area visitors guides which often include money-saving offers, either offered directly by local companies, or by way of a relationship between the management company and the business itself. You can also find Carolina Beach visitors guide magazine and coupon books at local shops and grocery stores.

Make a plan and choose the perfect Carolina Beach vacation home:

• Select your dates and spending budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and the configuration you need. The Corsair-a pet-friendly, five-bedroom, 4.5-bath Maritime Forest retreat! has 5 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms.
• Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is almost always available on booking websites. If not, call the property owner before you reserve your rental. Remember that most properties list the max. guest capacity, which typically includes pull-out couches. You will need to establish which bed configuration is best for your family.
• If there's a particular Carolina Beach beach you simply love, look for properties that are either close by, or those that cater especially to your desires.
• Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for persons with disabilities. .
• Some properties allow pets, and some do not. Acceptable types of dog or cat, weight and breeds may be restricted, and added charges may apply. Ask the property management company about pets before booking.

Advice for a wonderful stay:

• Take a copy of the owner's phone number and check in/check out procedures for your .
• Upon check-in, record any issues with the property and immediately contact the owner. Keep records of all coorespondence.
• Hosts are great sources of help! Feel free to ask any questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like disrespectful vacationers bothering your peace and quiet. Employ the golden rule for best judgement. Happy residents may even recommend great restaurants and places you would have not otherwise known about!
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Local residents can typically 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?
• Lock your vacation home while you're out. Protect your property!
• Just prior to departing, take a final walk-through to make sure you haven't forget any personal items. Re-check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden items. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Go through the rental a final time and keep an eye out for damage. We recommend walking through with the host whenever possible. If the manager is not available, take video of the rental to record its condition at check-out.
• Did your group have a wonderful stay? Most rental managers make it easy for travelers to provide feedback. If your rental and/or property management company was great, 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 review.
