Tips and Tricks to get the optimal vacation property experience:

Getting the most from your budget:

• Summer months are the most expensive season in the Wilmington, NC area. To book the most suitable rental for your budget, we strongly suggest booking in the Spring or Fall. You'll benefit from lower rates, greater selection, warm weather and the absence of giant crowds at Wilmington, NC restaurants, beaches, and activities.
• Book your vacation home as soon as possible. Rental schedules often become available 12 months in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many families reserve their Summer rental homes during Thanksgiving and Christmas gatherings. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Some hosts offer discounts or promotional rates for veterans and active duty military. Check with your host or property manager to see if rate reductions are available for your family before you book.
• Property management companies usually offer customers an option to add trip insurance. Trip insurance, which normally costs 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed days as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel stay or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for additional information.
• Look for your local Wilmington, NC visitors guide magazine upon checking in. If your rental doesn't have one, you can find them at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers. In addition to great local information, visitor guides contain offers and deals for local accommodations, tours and attractions.

• Choose a designated group leader, select your dates, and select a maximum budget.
• Note the number bedrooms and the bed configuration you need. Oceanfront, East Beach, Occupancy 12, Four Bedroom Home has 4 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms.
• Precise information regarding bedrooms and bed types is commonly accessible on booking pages. If not, reach out to the property management company before you book your rental. Remember that most property listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which oftentimes includes sofa beds and bunks.
• Visiting for a single event? If so, use a map search to locate nearby rentals.
• Proper accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for guests that require the use of a wheelchair. Confirm all necessary amenities are included before booking.
• Some properties allow pets, but some do not. Acceptable types of dog or cat, size and breeds may be restricted, and added costs may apply. Ask the property manager about pets before booking.

• Review arrival and departure procedures before traveling. Take a printed copy, and add a note with the instructions to your phone.
• To make certain damages are not attributed to your family's visit, note any problem areas upon check in. Speak to the rental manager immediately to record any damages. If there is a dispute about who is responsible, having a record of issues and contact attempts will be very helpful.

• Keep the property locked while you are gone! Don't let thieves spoil your vacation.
• Just prior to departing, take a walk-through to confirm you haven't forget any personal items. Check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden items. Clean the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Walk through the rental a final time and keep an eye out for any damage. We recommend inspecting the property with the host whenever you can. If the host isn't available, ensure that you take video of the property to record its condition.

Alternatively, if something went awry, other vacationers will will be grateful for your review find their best rental home. Be fair with your review.
