House rules:
I expect guests to behave like grown-ups:
Don’t burn down the home
Don't run around the neighborhood naked, keep it in home! :)
Don't eat drippy food at the table
There are multiple wastebaskets around the home: the toilet is not one of them”

1: Do not enter or attempt to enter the locked owners closet. This is the owners personal space, please respect this.
2: Most guests bring their own linens, We do however have linens available in upstairs linen closet. You may use what you need. Please only use what is needed, 1 towel set per guest and 1 sheet set per bed. If guest chooses to use our linens, they must be washed, dried folded and returned to the linen closet as they were found upon checkout. Failure to follow this rule will result in an additional cleaning fee charged to guest because we will have to hire a second cleaning crew to focus on linen washing while the main crew cleans the home in order for the home to be ready for checkin by the next guest. Please be respectful of this rule. We strive very hard to have the home in ideal condition in time for the next guest to check in without delays. Please respect the next guests time by not leaving dirty linens throughout the home. The cleanin window is very short and linens can take 2-3 hours to properly clean, sanitize, dry, fold and store. By booking this reservation you are acknowledging this rule and the additional fee of $225.00 that will be charged if not followed.

3: Any garbage that does not fit in the garbage bins must be removed from the property by guest. If checking out on a Sunday or a Monday, guest needs to move trash bins to the curb for trash collection. Any excess trash that is left by guest that does not fit in the bins, a removal fee of $150.00 will be charged to the guest if we have to haul it away. If trash pickup is missed due to bins not being on the road, a $150.00 trash haul away fee will be charged to the guest.

4: It is not necessary to run the AC at 60 degrees when your entire family is out of the home for the day at the beach. We try to keep our nightly rate economical so please help us keep it low by helping us not have $1,000 AC bills. :)

5: if you bring a dog, declare it when booking. a pet fee will apply. Also, pick up after your pet in the yard. If we have to scoop the poop for you after you check out, we don't do it for complimentary. A $250 poop scooping fee will be assessed. Is it worth $250? Absolutely not, we just really don't want to do it for you but will for $250.00

Vacation rental home tips and tricks:

Get the most from your spending budget:

• Reserve your vacation home as early as possible. Rental schedules usually open twelve months in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many groups book their Summer rental homes during Christmas and Thanksgiving gatherings. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Booking your vacation rental in the Fall or Spring is our favorite way to save money on your vacation home. Rental rates are lower, and you'll find a better selection of suitable homes. Many vacationers use this strategy to reserve larger homes, or to reserve an oceanfront rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during the high season. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Wilmington, NC vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday on the coast? Thanksgiving and Christmas are great times to gather with family and friends at your favorite beach.
• Some owners offer discounts or promotional rates for veterans. Ask your property manager if special offers are available for your family before you book.
• Property management companies typically offer customers an option to purchase trip insurance. Trip insurance, which normally costs 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed days as a result of medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unanticipated hotel or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance can be a a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for program terms and fees.
• Find a copy of your local Wilmington, NC visitors guide when you check-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 articles, visitors guides have offers and deals for nearby restaurants, attractions, and tours.

Planning, selecting, and booking yourrental:

• Select a designated group leader, select your vacation dates, and choose a budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and the bed configuration your group needs. Whole House! Sleeps 16. 5 bed 3.5 bath Luxory that is steps from the sand! has 5 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms.
• Precise information about bedrooms and bed counts & types is almost always accessible on booking pages. If they are not listed, call the host before booking your rental. Remember that most properties list the maximum guest capacity, which oftentimes includes sofa beds and bunks.
• Traveling with pets? Many vacation homes allow animals, but guidelines and restrictions apply. Allowable pet type, breed, and size are often limited. Make sure to ask before booking, and study your rental agreement! Additional pet fees or may be applied to your invoice.
• Does your group require special amenities? Most rental search websites include amenity lists and search filters.
• Suitable accessibility can make or break a vacation for guests with disabilities. .

More tips for your visit:

• We recommend storing the host's information in your smartphone and wallet.
• Property managers are available to help! Don't be shy to ask questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Lock your rental while you are out. Protect the owner's property and your things!
• To ensure that no damages are linked to your family's stay, make note of any problem areas when you arrive. Speak to the host right away to report any damages. If there is a dispute, having a record of concerns and contact attempts will be very helpful.
• Be a good neighbor. Frequently, surrounding homes are occupied by local residents. Respecting late-night noise limits and parking rules reduces conflict and allows everyone to enjoy their day.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Locals can usually help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to see a beautiful sunrise or sunset, have a great night out, or the best spots for shopping?
• Upon check-out, take a walk-through to make sure you didn't leave anything behind. Make sure to check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden items. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.

Alternatively, if something went wrong, other vacationers will will be grateful for your feedback find their best rental home. Remember to be objective.
