Tricks and tips to get the perfect Wilmington, NC vacation property experience:

Sticking to your rental home budget:

• June, July, and August are high season in Carolina Beach. Booking your vacation home in the Spring or Fall is one of our best tips for saving money on your vacation rental. Rental rates are lower, and you'll find a better selection of suitable properties. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, or to reserve a beach front vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during the Summer months.
• Book your rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules generally open 12 months in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many groups book their Summer vacations during Christmas and Thanksgiving get-togethers. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Some owners offer discounts or promotional rates for active duty military and veterans. Check with your host or property manager to see if discounts are available for your family.
• Booking websites frequently offer renters an option to obtain trip insurance. Trip insurance, which normally costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed days as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance might be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for details.
• Often, property management companies and vacation rental houses supply Wilmington, NC area visitor guide magazines that include money-saving deals, either offered directly by local businesses, or through a relationship with the property management company and the business itself. You can also find Wilmington, NC area magazine and coupon books at local gas stations and shopping centers.

Finding the best rental:

• Select a group leader, select your dates, and choose a max budget.
• Decide how many beds and the configuration your family requires. ~ SEPTEMBER and Monthly AVAIL ~ 401 Tranquil Seas: Duplex, Steps to the beach has 1 bedrooms and 1 bathrooms.
• Precise information about bedrooms and bed counts & types is generally available on booking pages. If they are not listed, reach out to the host before reserving your rental. Note that most properties list maximum guest capacity, which oftentimes includes pull-out couches.
• Visiting for a specific attraction or event? Use a map search to locate nearby rentals.
• Proper accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for those with limited mobility. .
• If your family is bringing pets, you will need a property that allows animals. Request specifics on breed, size, and type requirements. Be aware that some property managers charge additional pet fees.

Know before you go:

• Add the owner's phone number to your smartphone. Print and take a copy of check in/check out procedures.
• Record any damages to the property at check in, and immediately send them to the host. We specifically recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain built-in time stamps that can be helpful if damages are assessed.
• Property managers are there to help! Don't be shy to ask any questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Be respectful. Frequently, nearby homes are filled by local residents. Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking policies reduces conflict and allows everyone to enjoy their day.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Neighbors can often help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to rent beach equipment, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for shopping?
• Keep your rental home locked while you are gone! Don't let burglars ruin your trip.
• Just before checking out, take a final walk-through to make sure you haven't leave anything behind. Check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden belongings. Clean the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Please make sure to walk through the property a final time and scan for any damage. We recommend walking through with the host whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the manager isn't available, take photos of the rental to record its condition.
• After your trip, leave a review! Property owners rely on great ratings to compel new reservations. They'll be grateful for your feedback. Alternatively, if something wasn't as described, other vacationers will will be grateful for your feedback find their best vacation home. Remember to be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the manager could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded quickly to solve it.
