Tricks and tips to get the optimal Wilmington, NC rental experience:

When to go & When to reserve a Carolina Beach rental home:

• Reserve your vacation home as early as possible. Rental schedules often open twelve months in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many families reserve their Summer rentals during Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years Eve get-togethers. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• To find the best vacation home within your budget, we recommend booking in the Spring or Fall. You'll benefit from lower rental rates, better selection, gorgeous weather and the absence of large crowds at the beach and popular attractions.
• Hosts sometimes offer rate reductions for active duty military and veterans. Remember to ask your host or property manager if discounts are available for your family before you book.
• Management companies and individual rental owners frequently offer customers an option to purchase trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which usually will cost you 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed days as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance can be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for more information.
• Look for your local Wilmington, NC area magazine when you check-in. If your rental doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local grocery stores and visitor centers. In addition to great local information, visitors guide magazines contain offers and deals for nearby accommodations, tours and attractions.

How to select the perfect rental in the Wilmington, NC area:

• Begin by choosing your a vacation week and a budget.
• Determine how many beds and what type of bedroom configuration your group needs. A Swell Time - 4 br / 4 bath oceanfront cottage on the North end of Carolina Bea has 4 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms.
• Specific information about bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is almost always available online. If not, contact the property owner before you book the home. Remember that most property listings specify the max. guest capacity, which typically includes pull out couches in living rooms. You will need to work out what is best for your vacation group.
• If your group is traveling with pets, search for a pet-friendly property. Get details on breed, size, and type restrictions. Some property owners require additional pet deposits and fees.
• Are you visiting for a single attraction? If so, use a map search to locate nearby properties.
• Appropriate accessibility can make or break a vacation for persons with a disability. Confirm all required amenities are available before reserving a rental

During your stay:

• Be sure you get the host's contact number and entry/exit procedures for your rental property.
• Property managers are great sources of help! Feel free to ask any questions during your stay.
• Lock your rental home while you're out. Keep your property safe!
• To make sure damages are not linked to your family's visit, note any problem areas upon your arrival. Speak to the property manager immediately to record any damages. If there is a dispute about legal responsibility later, having the recorded concerns and contact attempts will be valuable.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like troublesome visitors bothering your peaceful neighborhood. Apply the golden rule for common sense. Happy residents may even recommend great local food and places you would've not otherwise known!
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Local residents can often help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to go for the best drinks, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fishing?
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before you drive away, walk through the property to reconfirm you've collected all belongings. Make sure to check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden belongings. Clean out the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Go through the property a final time and keep an eye out for any damage. We recommend inspecting the property with the property manager whenever possible. If the manager isn't available, take video and pictures of the rental to record its condition at check-out.
• Leave feedback! Property managers rely on good feedback to drive more reservations. They'll be grateful for your review. Alternatively, if something wasn't right, other families will appreciate that you share your experience and help them have the best future vacation. Please be fair with your feedback If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the manager could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded quickly to fix it.
