Tricks and tips for getting the best Carolina Beach rental experience:

Getting the most from your vacation rental budget:

• The sooner your group can book a vacation home, the easier your search will be. The best properties are booked very early. Booking your rental property up to twelve months before your vacation is recommended. Holidays such as Christmas and Thanksgiving are excellent times to plan and reserve your rental home.
• Summertime is the most expensive season along the coast of NC. To get the best rental within budget, we highly recommend booking in Fall or Spring. You'll benefit from lower rates, better selection, gorgeous weather and the absence of giant crowds at your favorite Carolina Beach restaurants and activities.
• Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property owner if your vacationing group qualifies for a special rate.
• Booking websites typically offer their guests an option to add vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which normally costs between 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed trip time as a result of medical-related issues or weather, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance can be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for more information.
• Find a copy of your local Carolina Beach visitors guide upon checking in. If your rental property doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers. In addition to great local articles, visitors guides contain deals for local attractions, tours, restaurants, and shops.

Make a plan and pick your prefectrental:

• Choose vacation dates and max budget.
• Note the number bedrooms and what type of bedroom configuration your family requires. The Marsh: Cozy Cottage with Beautiful Marsh Views, Short Walk to Beach has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our rentals search.
• Precise information about bedrooms and bed types is almost always available on booking pages. If you don't see them listed, contact the property manager before you book your home. Note that most property listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which typically includes pull out couches in living rooms. You'll need to determine which bed configuration is right for your trip.
• Some properties allow pets, and others do not. Allowable types of family pet, size and breeds may be restricted, and additional fees may apply. Ask the property manager about allowable breeds and types before booking.
• Looking for unique amenities? Most rental websites include search filters with amenity lists. Use these filters to your advantage to find the perfect rental home.
• Suitable accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for those with limited mobility. Remember to confirm all required amenities are included before booking

Some things to know before you go:

• Be sure you get the property manager's contact number and arrival/departure procedures for your rental. Put the host's information in your smartphone.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a garage door opener, elevator or WIFI setup. Contact your owner. They are there to help! A brief telephone call can prevent a lot of problems.
• Ensure you protect the owner (and your things!) by locking the property while you are away, just like you would at home.
• To make certain damages aren't linked to your family's stay, inspect for any problem areas during check in. text the property manager right away to relay your findings. If there is a dispute, having a record of issues and contact attempts will be valuable.
• Be respectful of your neighbors. Frequently, nearby homes are filled by local residents. Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking rules is the right thing to do.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Neighbors can frequently help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to charter a fishing boat, have a great night out, or the best spots for shopping?
• Double-check the rental property to make sure that you've packed all personal items at departure. Re-check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden treasure. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Did you have a excellent time? Many rental websites make it easy for travelers to provide reviews. If your rental property and/or property management company was great, they would love to hear it. If anything was imperfect and they failed to address it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make a note as part of your review.
