Tricks and tips to get the perfect Carolina Beach vacation property experience:

Money saving strategies:

• The earlier your group can reserve a vacation home, the easier your search will be. The best vacation rentals are reserved very early. Booking your vacation property up to 12 months before your vacation is recommended. Christmas, Thanksgiving and New Years Eve are excellent times to search for and book your rental property.
• June, July, and August are the most expensive months along the coast of NC. To find the best value, consider shifting your group's vacation to the Spring or Fall shoulder seasons. May, September, and October offer great weather, less crowded beaches, and reduced traffic. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Carolina Beach vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday on the coast? Thanksgiving and Christmas are great times to gather with family and friends at the beach.
• Property managers sometimes offer discounts or promotional rates for veterans and active duty military. Remember to ask your host or property manager if discounts are available for your family before you book.
• Property managers typically offer customers an option to buy trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which commonly will cost you between 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed vacation time as a result of medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance can be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for specifics.
• Find a copy of your local Carolina Beach area magazine when you check-in. If your rental property doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local grocery stores and visitor centers. In addition to great local information, visitors guides have money saving offers on local restaurants, attractions, and tours.

How to pick the best vacation rental:

• Choose vacation dates and max budget.
• Note the number beds and what type of bedroom configuration your group requires. The Sea Glass has 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms.
• Precise information regarding bedrooms and bed counts & types is usually available on booking pages. If not, call the host before you book the vacation property. Note that most property listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which often includes pull-out couches and bunk beds.
• If your family is traveling with pets, search for a pet-friendly rental. Ask for specifics on breed, size, and type requirements. Usually, hosts charge pet deposits and fees.
• If there's a specific Carolina Beach beach you long to visit, look for properties that are either near by, or those that cater to your desires.
• Suitable accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for persons with a disability. Make certain to ask about wheel chair accessibility, pool lifts and specialized equipment needs.

Some things to know before you go:

• Put the manager's contact information in your smartphone.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a garage door opener, elevator or thermostat. Contact your owner. They are there to help! A brief phone call can prevent lots of concerns.
• Lock your rental while you're out and about. Protect the owner's property and your stuff!
• Upon check-in, note any damages to the property and immediately alert the property manager. Record all coorespondence.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like disrespectful vacationers bothering your quiet neighborhood. Apply the golden rule for best judgement. If they like you, locals might even recommend great beaches and scenic spots you would have not otherwise known about!
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Neighbors can usually help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to spend a rainy day, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fine dining?
• Don't leave anything behind! Before departing, walk through the property to reconfirm you've collected everything. Remember to check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden treasure. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Go through the rental a final time and look for any damage. We suggest inspecting the property with the property manager whenever you can. If the host isn't available, take video and pictures of the property to record its condition at check-out.
• Did your group have a terrific stay? Most vacation rental websites make it easy for customers to provide comments. If your rental property and/or host was fantastic, they will likely appreciate your kind words. If anything was amiss and they failed to correct it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make it a point as part of your review.
