Tips and Tricks to get the optimal vacation rental experience:

Money saving strategies:

• In the Carolina Beach area, The earlier your group can reserve a vacation home, the better your selection will be. The best rental properties are reserved early. Reserving your vacation home up to twelve months before your vacation dates is recommended. Holiday gatherings are excellent times to search for and reserve your rental property.
• Summertime is high season in Wilmington. Booking in the Spring or Fall is our best tip for saving money on your vacation. Rates are lower, and you'll find a better selection of suitable homes.
• Property management companies sometimes offer discounts or promotional rates for veterans. It's always a good idea to check with your property manager to see if discounts are available for your group.
• Management companies and individual rental owners typically offer renters an option to obtain trip insurance. Trip insurance, which generally will cost you anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed time as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance might be a a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for details.
• Often, property management companies supply Carolina Beach area visitors guides that include coupons, either offered directly by local companies, or through a relationship between the property management company and the business itself. You can also find visitors guide and coupon books at local gas stations and shopping centers.

Narrow your Search:

• Select a group lead, select your vacation week, and select a spending budget.
• Determine how many beds and the bed configuration your group needs. The Pet Friendly Port House with a Fully Fenced in Back Yard!! has 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Precise information about bedrooms and bed types is often accessible online. If they are not listed, contact the property owner before reserving your home. Note that most properties list the maximum guest capacity, which frequently includes sofa beds. You'll need to establish what bed configuration is optimal for your vacation group.
• Some properties allow pets, but others don't. Acceptable types of family pet, weight and breeds may be restricted, and additional charges may apply. Ask the host about your furry family members before booking.
• Are you visiting for a specific event? Try a map search to browse nearby properties.
• Suitable accessibility can make or break a vacation for the less-mobile. Remember to confirm all required amenities are available before booking

Some things to know before you go:

• Be sure you get the owner's contact number and arrival/departure procedures for your rental. We recommend storing the manager's contact information in your smartphone.
• Hosts are there to help! Feel free to ask questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Lock your rental while you're out. Protect your property!
• During arrival, document any issues with the property and immediately alert the owner. Keep records of all coorespondence.
• Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking rules can make a stay more pleasurable. You will magnify your chance to make some new local friends, and resident neighbors can be an incredible source for finding the best local spots.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Local residents can often point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to charter a fishing boat, have a great night out, or the best spots for fishing?
• Re-check the rental property to confirm that you've packed all personal items on check-out day. Check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden treasure. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Go through the rental a final time and keep an eye out for damages to contents or the property itself. We recommend inspecting the property with the host whenever possible. If the manager is not available, remember to take photographs of the rental to record its condition.
• Did your group have a terrific stay? Many vacation rental websites make it easy for customers to provide feedback. If your property and/or host was great, they would love to hear it. If anything was amiss and they failed to fix it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make it a point as part of your feedback.
