Strategies for getting the perfect Carolina Beach vacation home experience:

Sticking to a budget:

• Reserving a rental home in Fall or Spring months is an excellent way to save money on your vacation home. Rental rates are lower, and you'll find a larger selection of acceptable homes. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Wilmington, NC vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday near the ocean? Christmas, Thanksgiving, and New Years Eve are great times to gather with loved ones at your favorite beach.
• In the Wilmington, NC area, The earlier you can reserve a home, the better your selection will be. The most desirable properties are reserved very early. Reserving your rental six to twelve months before your vacation dates is recommended. Winter holidays are excellent times to plan and book your vacation rental.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property owner whether your group qualifies for a special promotion or discount.
• Property management companies frequently offer customers an option to purchase vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which generally will cost anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed time as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance might be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for specifics.
• Many rental management companies supply Wilmington, NC area visitors guide magazines that include money-saving deals, either offered directly by local businesses, or through a relationship between the management company and the business itself. You can also find Wilmington, NC visitors guide magazine and coupon books at local shops and grocery stores.

How to choose and book your Wilmington, NC vacation home:

• First and foremost, have your family commit to vacation dates and a max budget.
• Note the number beds and the bed configuration your group needs. Bella Vita, Oceanfront Retreat has 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed types is normally available online. If they are not listed, email or call the property manager before you reserve the rental. Remember that most properties list the max. guest capacity, which frequently includes pull out couches in living rooms.
• If there's a particular Wilmington, NC destination you crave, browse properties that are either nearby, or those that cater to your desires.
• Appropriate accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for persons with a disability. Confirm all necessary amenities are available before booking
• If your group is traveling with pets, you will need a pet-friendly rental. Make sure to ask for details on breed, weight, and type requirements. Be aware that some property owners charge additional pet fees.

More tips for your stay:

• Get the owner's phone number and entry/exit procedures for your rental property. Store the manager's information in your smartphone and wallet.
• Record any damages to the property during check in, and immediately contact the property manager. We specifically recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain built-in time stamps that are very helpful if damages are assessed.
• Hosts are there to help! Don't be shy to ask any questions during your stay.
• Respect your neighbors. Frequently, surrounding homes are occupied by permanent residents. Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking regulations is the right thing to do.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Residents can frequently help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to get the best breakfast in town, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fine dining?
• Ensure you protect the property owner (and your stuff!) by locking and securing the home when you are out, just like you would back home.
• Don't leave anything behind! Before departing, take a walk through the rental property to reconfirm you've collected all personal items. Remember to check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden treasure. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Did your family have a wonderful stay? Many vacation rental websites make it easy for vacationers to provide reviews. If your rental and/or property manager was terrific, they would love to hear it. If anything was defective and they failed to correct it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make a note as part of your comments.
