Our top Wilmington, NC rental home tips and tricks:

Sticking to a budget:

• The sooner you can book a rental home, the easier your search will be. The most desirable rental homes are booked early. Booking your vacation home six to twelve months before your vacation is recommended. Winter holidays are excellent times to plan and reserve your rental.
• Summertime is high season in Oak Island. To get the best value, change your family's Wilmington, NC trip dates to the Spring or Fall shoulder seasons. May, September, and October offer excellent weather, less crowded beaches, and reduced traffic. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the 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 loved ones at the beach.
• Property management companies sometimes offer discounts for veterans. Remember to ask your property manager if special offers are available for your group before you book.
• Property management companies often offer renters an option to add vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which generally will cost you anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed trip time as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for specifics.
• Look for your local visitors guide upon arrival. If your rental property doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local shops and visitor centers. In addition to great local stories, visitors guide magazines have coupons for local restaurants, attractions, and tours.

Choosing the best rental:

• Choose your vacation week and budget.
• Note the number bedrooms and the configuration you need. After Dune Delight / 1126 E Dolphin Drive - Coastal Vacation Resorts has 4 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts & types is commonly available online. If you don't see them listed, call the property manager before you reserve your home. Note that most property listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which typically includes sofa beds.
• Some properties allow pets, and some do not. Allowable types of pet, weight and breeds may be restricted, and additional charges may apply. Ask the owner about pets before booking.
• Does your group require particular amenities? Most rental search websites include search filters with amenity lists. Filtering by amenity will allow you to quickly find the perfect rental home.
• Appropriate accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for persons with disabilities. Confirm all required amenities are available before booking.

Have a great stay:

• Put the owner's contact information in your smartphone.
• Hosts are there to help! Feel free to ask questions during your stay.
• Protect the owner (and your things!) by locking and securing the home while you are away, just like you would at home.
• During check-in, record any issues with the property and immediately alert the host. Record all coorespondence.
• Respect your neighbors. Frequently, surrounding homes are filled by local residents. Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking policies is the right thing to do.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Neighbors can usually point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to find the best bike paths, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for bird watching?
• Don't leave anything behind! Before you drive away, take a walk through the rental property to make sure you've collected all of your things. Check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden belongings. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Document the condition of the property at check-out. We recommend taking a video during your final walk-through.
• Did you have a fantastic time? Most rental management companies make it easy for travelers to provide reviews. If your rental property and/or host was great, they will likely appreciate your kind words. If anything was wrong and they failed to address it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make a note as part of your comments.
