Tricks and tips for getting the best Wilmington, NC vacation property experience:

When to book & When to go:

• Reserve your rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules usually open a year in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many groups book their Summer rental homes during Winter holiday get-togethers. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Summer months are high season in the Wilmington, NC area. Reserve your vacation home in the Fall or Spring to get the benefit of beautiful weather while saving money and avoiding crowded roads, restaurants, and activities. Many vacationers use this strategy to reserve larger homes, or to reserve an oceanfront vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during June, July, and August.
• Some property managers offer discounts for active duty military and veterans. Remember to ask your property manager if special discounts are available for your family before you book.
• Property managers usually offer their guests an option to add trip insurance. Trip insurance, which generally costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed vacation time as a result of medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance might be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for program terms and fees.
• Look for your local Wilmington, NC visitors guide upon checking in. If your rental home doesn't have one, you can find them at local grocery stores and visitor centers. In addition to great local stories, visitors guides contain deals for nearby accommodations and attractions.

Make a plan and pick your Wilmington, NC rental:

• Select a designated group leader, choose your vacation week, and select a spending budget.
• Note the number bedrooms and the configuration your family needs. Cake by the Ocean at Holden Beach, Ocean front home, Fully renovated custom finishes has 4 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts & types is almost always accessible online. If you don't see them listed, reach out to the property management company before reserving the home. Remember that most properties list the max. guest capacity, which often includes sofa beds. You will need to work out what configuration is suitable for your vacation group.
• Some rental properties allow pets, but others don't. Acceptable types of family pet, weight and breeds may be restricted, and additional fees may apply. Ask the owner about pet restrictions before booking.
• Visiting for a single attraction? Use a map search to browse nearby properties.
• Proper accessibility can make or break a vacation for the less-mobile. Confirm all necessary amenities are available before booking.

Considerations for your stay:

• Add the host's contact information to your phone. Take a copy of check in/check out procedures.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a hot tub, stereo or thermostat. Contact your property manager. They are there to help! A brief telephone call can prevent a lot of concerns.
• Lock your vacation home while you are out and about. Keep your property safe!
• To make certain no damages are linked to your family's stay, inspect the rental for any problem areas when you arrive. Call the rental manager right away to record any damages. If there is a dispute about who is responsible, having a record of concerns and contact attempts will be helpful.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like loud visitors bothering your peaceful neighborhood. Apply the golden rule for common sense. Happy residents may even recommend great beaches and places you would've never otherwise known about!
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Residents can frequently help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to rent beach equipment, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fishing?
• When it's time to leave, complete a final walk-through to confirm you have not forget any personal items. Re-check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden treasure. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Walk through the property one final time and look for damage. We advise inspecting the property with the host whenever possible. If the property manager isn't available, take photographs of the rental to record its condition.
• Remember to leave a review! Property managers rely on great ratings to inspire new reservations. They'll be much obliged for your feedback. Alternatively, if something wasn't as described, other vacationers will appreciate that you share your experience and help them have the best future vacation. Be fair with your review. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the property manager could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded quickly to fix it.
