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

Sticking to your rental home budget:

• June, July, and August are high season in the Carolina Beach area. To find the best value, change your group's vacation dates to the Spring or Fall shoulder seasons. May, September, and October offer warmer temperatures, less crowded beaches, and reduced traffic. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, or to book an oceanfront rental that would otherwise be unavailable during June, July, and August. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Carolina Beach vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation near the ocean? Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with family and friends at your favorite beach.
• The earlier you can book a vacation home, the easier your search will be. The best rental homes are booked very early. Reserving your rental property up to twelve months before your travel dates is recommended. Christmas, Thanksgiving and New Years Eve are excellent times to plan and book your rental property.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective host if your group qualifies for a price reduction.
• Booking websites frequently offer customers an option to add trip insurance. Trip insurance, which usually will cost between 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for days missed as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance can be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for more information.
• Look for your local Carolina Beach visitors guide magazine upon checking in. If your rental doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local shops and visitor centers. In addition to great articles, travel guide magazines contain coupons for local restaurants, attractions, and tours.

Finding the perfect rental home in Carolina Beach:

• Start by choosing your trip dates and a max budget.
• Note the number bedrooms and the configuration your group requires. The Painted Turtle on the Boardwalk has 1 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Specific information regarding bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is regularly accessible on booking websites. If you don't see them listed, call the property owner before you book your rental. Remember that most listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which often includes pull-out couches.
• Are you looking for particular amenities? Most rental search websites include search filters for amenities.
• Proper accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for guests with disabilities. Make certain to ask about wheel chair accessibility, pool lifts and specialized equipment needs.
• If your group is bringing pets, search for a property that allows animals. Ask for specifics on breed, weight, and type requirements. Usually, hosts charge pet deposits and fees.

Additional considerations:

• Review check in & check out procedures before traveling. Save the directions to your phone, and take a printed copy.
• Document any damages to the rental upon arrival, and immediately send them to the property manager. We specifically recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain time stamps that can be helpful if damages are attributed to your stay.
• Property managers are there to help! Don't be shy to ask questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Don't forget to respect your neighbors. Often times, nearby homes are filled by permanent residents. Respecting noise limits and parking rules can make a stay significantly more pleasurable.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Local residents can often point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to order delicious takeout, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for crabbing?
• Keep your rental home locked while you're gone! Don't let burglars ruin your vacation.
• Double-check the vacation property to confirm that you've packed all of your belongings on check-out day. Check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden belongings. Clean 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.
• After your trip, leave a review! Property managers rely on good ratings to compel new reservations. They'll be thankful for your feedback. Alternatively, if something wasn't as described, other families will appreciate that you share your feedback find their best vacation home. Be fair with your review. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the manager could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded expeditiously to fix it.
