Tricks and tips to get the very best Wilmington, NC vacation home experience:

Cost saving strategies:

• Summer is the most expensive season in Oak Island. Booking in the Fall or Spring is a good way to save on your rental home. Rates are lower, and you'll find a larger selection of desirable properties. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Wilmington, NC vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation on the coast? Thanksgiving and Christmas are great times to gather with family and friends at the beach.
• Reserve your rental as early as possible. Rental schedules generally open a year in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many groups reserve their Summer rentals during holiday get-togethers. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Hosts and Property managers sometimes offer rate reductions for veterans and active duty military. Check with your property manager to see if rate reductions are available for your group.
• Management companies and individual rental owners frequently offer customers an option to obtain vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which commonly costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed days as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather, as well as ensuing additional evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance can be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for specifics.
• Often, management companies supply Wilmington, NC area travel guide magazines which will include special deals, either offered independently by local businesses, or by way of a relationship with the property management company and the business itself. You can also find Wilmington, NC visitors guide and coupon books at local gas stations and shopping centers.

How to pick the perfect vacation home in the Wilmington, NC area:

• Select your vacation dates and maximum budget.
• Note the number bedrooms and the configuration you need. Oceanfront 5br home with private beach access in Oak Island has 6 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed types is often accessible on booking websites. If not, reach out to the property manager before you reserve the property. Note that most property listings specify the max. guest capacity, which usually includes pull out couches in living rooms. You'll need to determine what is right for your trip.
• If there's an individual Wilmington, NC attraction you simply love, browse rentals that are either nearby, or those that cater to your requirements.
• Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for persons with disabilities. Make certain to ask about specialized equipment and wheel chair accessibility.
• If your group is traveling with pets, filter your search for a pet-friendly property. Make sure to ask for details on breed, weight, and type requirements. Note that some property owners require additional pet deposits and fees.

Tips to have a smooth stay:

• Add the host's contact info to your phone. Print and take a copy of check in/check out procedures.
• During check-in, make note of any damages to the property and immediately contact the owner. Record all correspondence just in case a dispute arises.
• Property managers are available to help! Feel free to ask any questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Respect the neighborhood. Often times, surrounding homes are occupied by permanent residents. Respecting quiet hours and parking policies can make a stay significantly more pleasurable.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Local residents can frequently help. Who better to ask where to book the best tours, have a great night out, or the best spots for bird watching?
• Keep your rental home locked while you are gone! Don't let crooks ruin your family vacation.
• Don't leave anything behind! Before departing, walk through the property to reconfirm you've collected all of your things. Check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden items. Clean out the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Document the condition of the property at check-out. We recommend taking a video during your final walk-through.
• Leave a review! Hosts rely on great ratings to drive more bookings. They'll be thankful for your review. Alternatively, if something wasn't right, other vacationers will appreciate that you share your review find their best vacation rental. Remember to be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the property manager could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded quickly to remedy it.
