Carolina Beach rental home tips and tricks:

Cost saving strategies:

• To find the best value, try changing your group's vacation dates to the Spring or Fall months. May, September, and October offer warmer weather, fewer crowds, and reduced traffic. 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? Christmas, Thanksgiving, and New Years Eve are great times to gather with friends and family at your favorite beach.
• Book your vacation rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules generally open a year in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many families book their Summer rentals during holiday gatherings. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Some hosts and property managers offer promotional rates for veterans and active duty military. Check with your host or property manager to see if discounts are available for your group.
• Management companies and individual rental owners frequently offer customers an option to buy vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which usually will cost you between 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed days as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as evacuation costs or charges, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance can be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for additional information.
• Find a copy of your local visitors guide when you check-in. If your rental home doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local shops and fuel stations. In addition to great local stories, visitors guide magazines have deals for local shops and restaurants.

Planning, picking, and booking the right Carolina Beach rental home:

• Start by having your family decide on dates and a spending budget.
• Note the number beds and the configuration your family needs. Historic pet friendly home on ocean has 4 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts & types is often available on booking pages. Otherwise, contact the property owner before reserving the property. Remember that most properties list maximum guest capacity, which often includes pull out couches in living rooms. You'll need to determine what bed configuration is optimal for your family.
• Does your family require specific amenities? Most websites include amenity lists and search filters.
• Appropriate accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for the less-mobile. Confirm all necessary amenities are available and included before reserving a rental
• If your family is vacationing with pets, you'll need to book a rental that allows animals. Get information on breed, weight, and type restrictions. Some property owners charge pet deposits and fees.

Additional considerations:

• Add the property manager's contact information to your smartphone. Take a copy of check in/check out procedures.
• To ensure that no damages are attributed to your family's visit, make note of any problem areas upon your arrival. Get in touch with the rental manager right away to report any pre-existing damages. If there is a dispute about legal responsibility later, having the recorded concerns and contact attempts will be very helpful.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a garage door opener, television set or kitchen appliance. Contact your host. They are there to help! A brief telephone call prevents lots of problems.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like disrespectful vacationers bothering your peace and quiet. Employ the golden rule for common sense. Happy residents may even recommend great restaurants and scenic spots you would've never otherwise known about!
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Neighbors can typically help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to see a beautiful sunrise or sunset, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fine dining?
• Protect the property owner (and your things!) by locking the rental when you are out, just like you would at home.
• When it's time to leave, complete a walk-through to confirm you didn't forget any personal items. Make sure to check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden items. Clean out 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 feedback! Property owners rely on good reviews to stimulate new bookings. They'll be thankful for your review. Alternatively, if something went wrong, other families will be thankful you shared your feedback find their best rental home. Remember to be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the owner had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded quickly to fix it.
