Strategies to get the very best vacation rental experience:

When to book & When to go:

• Book your rental as early as possible. Rental schedules often become available twelve months in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many families reserve their Summer vacation rentals during Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years Eve gatherings. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Summer is the most expensive season in coastal NC. To get the best value, consider shifting your trip dates to the Spring or Fall shoulder seasons. May, September, and even October offer great temperatures, less crowded beaches, and greatly reduced traffic. Many vacationers use this method to find larger homes within budget, or to book a beach front rental that would otherwise be unavailable during the Summer months. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Wilmington, NC vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday near the ocean? Thanksgiving and Christmas are great times to gather with friends and family at the beach.
• Hosts sometimes offer discounts or promotional rates for veterans and active duty military. Make sure to check with your host or property manager to see if special offers are available for your family.
• Booking websites often offer their guests an option to obtain vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which usually will cost 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any days missed as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as ensuing additional evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for additional information.
• Often, rental management companies and vacation rental houses supply Wilmington, NC area visitor guide magazines which include coupons, either offered independently by local companies, or through a partnership between the rental management company and the business itself. You can also find Wilmington, NC visitors guide magazine and coupon books at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers.

How to choose the best rental in Bald Head Island:

• First, have your family decide on date ranges and a maximum budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and the configuration your group needs. Carolina Moonshine @ BHI !!Sparkle & Shine On @ BHI Marina has 1 bedrooms and 1 bathrooms.
• Precise information regarding bedrooms and bed counts & types is usually available on booking websites. If you don't see them listed, reach out to the host before you book the home. Note that most property listings specify maximum guest capacity, which typically includes sofa beds and bunks. You'll need to establish what configuration is suitable for your family.
• Some properties allow pets, but others do not. Allowable types of dog or cat, size and breeds may be restricted, and additional fees may apply. Ask your host about pets before booking.
• If there's a specific Wilmington, NC destination you are enamored with, browse properties that are either nearby, or those that cater to your requirements.
• Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for the less-mobile. Remember to confirm all necessary amenities are available before reserving a rental

Additional considerations:

• Add the host's contact info to your phone. Print and take a copy of arrival/departure procedures.
• Hosts are great sources of help! Don't be shy to ask questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Lock your rental while you are out. Keep your property safe!
• During arrival, record any issues with the rental property and immediately alert the host. Record all coorespondence.
• Respect your neighbors. Often, adjacent homes are filled by local residents. Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking rules reduces conflict and allows everyone to enjoy their day.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Residents can often help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to get the best breakfast in town, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for crabbing?
• Upon check-out, complete a final walk-through to make sure you did not forget any personal items. Remember to check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden items. Clean out the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Go through the rental one final time and look for any damage. We advise inspecting the property with the host whenever you can. If the host is not available, remember to take pictures of the property to record its condition.
• Did your group have a wonderful vacation? Most rental home management companies make it easy for travelers to provide feedback. If your rental and/or property manager was terrific, they would love to hear it. If anything was wrong and they failed to correct it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make a note as part of your review.
