Our top Wilmington, NC rental booking tips and tricks:

When to book & When to go:

• The sooner you can book a vacation home, the better your selection will be. The most desirable properties are booked early. Reserving your vacation home six to twelve months before your vacation is recommended. Holiday gatherings are excellent times to search for and book your rental.
• To find the most suitable vacation home within your budget, we suggest reserving in Spring or Fall. You'll benefit from lower rates, better selection, warm weather and the absence of giant crowds at your favorite Wilmington, NC restaurants and activities. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, or to book an oceanfront rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during the high season.
• Hosts sometimes offer special rates for veterans. Check with your host or property manager to see if discounts are available for your group before you book.
• Management companies and individual rental owners often offer renters an option to obtain trip insurance. Trip insurance, which will generally cost between 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed trip time as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather, as well as evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel stay or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance might be a a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for additional information.
• Often, management companies and vacation rental houses supply Wilmington, NC area travel guides that include coupons, either offered independently by local companies, or by way of a partnership between the rental management company and the business itself. You can also find Wilmington, NC area magazine and coupon books at local gas stations and shopping centers.

Use filters to narrow your search:

• Select your vacation dates and spending budget.
• Decide how many bedrooms and what type of bedroom configuration your family requires. Beautiful Oceanfront Home with Amazing Views-Sleeps 12 has 5 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms.
• Precise information about bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is usually available on booking websites. Otherwise, call the property owner before you reserve your rental. Remember that most property listings specify the max. guest capacity, which frequently includes sofa beds and bunks.
• If your family is vacationing with pets, you will need a pet-friendly property. Get details on breed, weight, and type restrictions. Some hosts charge pet deposits and fees.
• Are you looking for particular amenities? Most rental websites include search filters for amenities.
• Proper accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for those with limited mobility. Confirm all required amenities are available and included before booking

Advice for your stay:

• Review check in & check out procedures before leaving home. Take a printed copy, and save the instructions to your phone.
• Hosts are great sources of help! Feel free to ask any questions during your stay.
• Ensure you protect the rental owner (and your stuff!) by locking the property while you are away, just like you would at home.
• To make certain that damages are not linked to your stay, note any problem areas when you arrive. message the rental manager immediately to relay any issues. If there is a dispute about legal responsibility later, having a record of issues and contact attempts will be helpful.
• Be respectful. Often, adjacent homes are occupied by local residents. Respecting quiet hours and parking policies reduces conflict and allows everyone to enjoy their day.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Locals can often point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to grab the best tacos, have a great night out, or the best spots for fishing?
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before you drive away, take a walk through the rental to reconfirm you've collected all personal belongings. Remember to check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden items. Clean out the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Walk through the property one final time and scan for any damage. We suggest inspecting the property with the host whenever you can. If the property manager is not available, take video of the rental to record its condition.
• Did you have a fantastic stay? Many rental managers make it easy for travelers to provide reviews. If your rental and/or property management company was wonderful, they always love to hear your praise. If anything was inoperable and they failed to correct it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make it a point as part of your comments.
