Strategies to get the very best vacation property experience:

When to go & When to reserve a rental home:

• Summer is high season in Bald Head Island. To get the best value, consider shifting your trip dates to the Spring or Fall seasons. May, September, and even October offer great weather, , and greatly reduced traffic. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, or to book an oceanfront vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable during June, July, and August. 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 loved ones at the beach.
• Book your vacation rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules often become available 12 months in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many groups book their Summer vacation rentals during Winter holiday gatherings. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Some property management companies offer discounts for active duty military and veterans. Remember to ask your host or property manager if special offers are available for your family before you book.
• Booking websites often offer their guests an option to add trip insurance. Trip insurance, which usually costs between 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed trip time as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather, as well as hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance can be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for details.
• Find a copy of your local Wilmington, NC area magazine upon checking in. If your rental doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local grocery stores and visitor centers. In addition to great articles, visitor guides contain discounts for local accommodations, restaurants and tours.

Make a plan and pick the right Wilmington, NC rental:

• Select a group lead, choose your dates, and choose a spending budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and the bed configuration your family requires. Washashore - South Beach Oceanfront Home w\/Views, Wraparound Deck, Tons of Natural Light, BHI Club has 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our Wilmington, NC rentals search.
• Precise information about bedrooms and bed counts is normally available online. If not, email or call the property owner before reserving the vacation property. Note that most listings specify the max. guest capacity, which often includes sofa beds. You'll need to work out what bed configuration is suitable for your vacation.
• Visiting for a specific attraction or event? Try a map search to browse nearby rentals.
• Proper accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for those with limited mobility. .
• Some properties allow pets, but others do not. Acceptable types of family pet, weight and breeds may be restricted, and additional charges may apply. Ask the owner about your furry family members before booking.

Advice for your stay:

• Take a copy of the host's phone number and entry/exit procedures for your rental home. Put the host's information in your smartphone and wallet.
• To ensure that damages aren't attributed to your family's stay, inspect for any problem areas during check in. Contact the host right away to relay any pre-existing damages. If there is a dispute, having a record of concerns and contact attempts will be useful.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a hot tub, elevator or WIFI setup. Contact your owner. They are there to help! A brief telephone call can prevent quite a few problems.
• Respect your neighbors. Often times, adjacent homes are occupied by local residents. Respecting quiet hours and parking policies is the right thing to do.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Residents can often help. Who better to ask where to find the fresh catch of the day, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for crabbing?
• Lock your vacation home while you're away. Keep your property safe!
• Re-check the rental property to confirm that you've packed everything at check-out. Check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden treasure. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Please make sure to walk through the rental a final time and keep an eye out for any damage. We advise walking through with the host whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the property manager isn't available, take video of the rental to record its condition.
• Did you have a excellent stay? Many rental websites make it easy for guests to provide reviews. If your rental property and/or property manager was wonderful, they would love to hear about it. If anything was imperfect and they failed to correct it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make it a point as part of your feedback.
