Vacation rental tips and tricks:

When to book & When to go:

• Summertime is the most expensive season in the Wilmington, NC area. To get the largest rental home within your budget, we suggest reserving in Fall or Spring. You'll enjoy lower rates, greater selection, gorgeous weather and the absence of large crowds at Wilmington, NC restaurants, tours, and activities. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Wilmington, NC vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday near the ocean? Christmas, Thanksgiving, and New Years Eve are great times to gather with loved ones at your favorite beach.
• In the Wilmington, NC area, The earlier your group can book a rental home, the better your selection will be. The best vacation rentals are booked very early. Reserving your rental property up to 12 months before your travel dates is recommended. Christmas, Thanksgiving and New Years Eve are excellent times to plan and book your vacation rental.
• Some owners offer promotional rates for veterans. Remember to ask your host or property manager if special offers are available for your group.
• Property management companies frequently offer renters an option to buy trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which commonly will cost you 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed time as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance can be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for more information.
• Find a copy of your local Wilmington, NC visitors guide 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, travel guides contain discounts for nearby accommodations, restaurants and tours.

Make a plan and pick your prefectrental:

• Start by choosing trip dates and a maximum budget.
• Determine how many beds and the configuration your group needs. 7BR/6.5BAH House - Ocean Views, Event Home, Dog Friendly, Sleeps 18 has 7 bedrooms and 6 bathrooms.
• Specific information regarding bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is usually available on booking pages. If you don't see them listed, reach out to the property manager before you book the vacation home. Remember that most properties list the maximum guest capacity, which usually includes pull out couches in living rooms. You'll need to work out what is right for your family.
• Is your group looking for specific amenities? Most rental search websites include amenity lists and search filters. Use these to your advantage to find the perfect rental home.
• Proper accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for the less-mobile. .
• If your group is vacationing with pets, you will need a pet-friendly rental. Make sure to ask for specifics on breed, weight, and type requirements. Note that some property managers charge pet deposits and fees.

Additional considerations:

• Review arrival and departure procedures before leaving home. Save the directions to your phone, and take a printed copy.
• At Check-in, note any damages to the rental property and immediately alert the host. Keep records of all coorespondence.
• Hosts are available to help! Don't be shy to ask any questions during your stay.
• Be a good neighbor. Often, nearby homes are filled by permanent residents. Respecting late-night noise limits and parking policies is the right thing to do.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Residents can typically help. Who better to ask where to book the best tours, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for bird watching?
• Protect the owner (and your stuff!) by locking the property when you are gone, just like you would at home.
• Double-check every room of the property to make sure that you've packed all belongings on check-out day. Re-check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden items. Clean out the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Go through the rental a final time and look for any damage. We advise inspecting the property with the host whenever you can. If the manager isn't available, take pictures of the property to record its condition at check-out.
• Did your family have a wonderful time? Many rental management companies make it easy for clients to provide reviews. If your rental and/or property management company was wonderful, they would love to hear it. If anything was out of order and they failed to address it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make it a point as part of your comments.
