Tricks and tips to get the optimal vacation rental experience:

Sticking to a rental budget:

• The earlier you can book a vacation home, the better your selection will be. The most desirable rental properties are booked early. Booking your vacation home up to twelve months before your travel dates is recommended. Holiday gatherings are excellent times to search for and reserve your rental home.
• To book the largest rental home for your budget, we suggest reserving in the Fall or Spring. You'll enjoy lower rental rates, greater selection, warm weather and the absence of large crowds at your favorite restaurants and activities. Many vacationers use this strategy to find larger homes within budget, or to book an oceanfront rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during June, July, and August.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective host whether your vacationing group qualifies for a reduced rate.
• Management companies and individual rental owners often offer customers an option to purchase trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which generally will cost 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed trip time as a result of medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for details.
• Often, management companies and vacation rental houses supply Wilmington, NC area visitor guide magazines that include special deals, either offered directly by local companies, or through a relationship between 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.

Make a plan and choose a perfectvacation home:

• First and foremost, have your family choose the best dates and a spending budget.
• Decide how many bedrooms and the bed configuration your group needs. 3BR/3BA House, Walk to Beach, Ocean and Marsh Views, Event Home, Sleeps 8 has 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our search.
• Specific information about bedrooms and bed counts is almost always available online. Otherwise, email the property management company before booking the home. Remember that most property listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which oftentimes includes pull out couches in living rooms. You'll need to work out which bed configuration is optimal for your group.
• If your group is bringing pets, you must reserve a pet-friendly rental. Make sure to ask for details on breed, size, and type requirements. Note that some property owners require additional pet deposits and fees.
• Looking for special amenities? Most rental websites include search filters for amenities.
• Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for persons with disabilities. .

More tips for your stay:

• Put the manager's information in your smartphone.
• Property managers are there to help! Feel free to ask any questions during your stay.
• Keep the property locked while you are out! Don't let thieves ruin your vacation.
• During check-in, make note of any damages to the property and immediately contact the owner. Record all coorespondence.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like obnoxious visitors disrupting your home life. Employ the golden rule for best judgement. If they like you, locals might even recommend great local food and places you would've not otherwise known!
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Residents can typically help. Who better to ask where to enjoy a steak with a view, have a great night out, or the best spots for BBQ?
• Double-check every room of the rental property to make sure that you've packed all of your belongings at departure. Make sure to check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden treasure. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Did you have a excellent stay? Most rental websites make it easy for guests to provide comments. If your rental and/or property management company was great, they would love to hear about it. If anything was defective and they failed to fix it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make a note as part of your comments.
