Vacation rental booking tips and tricks:

Getting the most from your budget:

• In the Wilmington, NC area, The sooner you can book a rental home, the better your selection will be. The best rental homes are reserved very early. Reserving your vacation home six - twelve months before your travel dates is recommended. Christmas, Thanksgiving and New Years Eve are excellent times to plan and reserve your vacation rental.
• Booking your vacation rental in Fall or Spring is one of our best tips for saving money on your vacation home. Rates are lower, and you'll find a better selection of acceptable properties. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Wilmington, NC vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation near the ocean? Thanksgiving and Christmas are great times to gather with loved ones at your favorite beach.
• Some owners offer discounts for active duty military and veterans. Make sure to check with your property manager to see if rate reductions are available for your group.
• Management companies and individual rental owners usually offer customers an option to add vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which commonly will cost you 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed time as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for program terms and fees.
• Find a copy of your local visitors guide when you check-in. If your rental doesn't have one, you can find them at local shops and visitor centers. In addition to great articles, travel guides have offers and deals for local tours, shops, and attractions.

Planning, selecting, and booking the best Wilmington, NC rental:

• First, have your group decide on the best dates and a budget.
• Decide how many beds and what type of bedroom configuration you need. ~Carolina Tides~ Beach View, Fishing Pier has 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Precise information about bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is regularly accessible on booking pages. Otherwise, reach out to the property manager before you reserve the vacation home. Remember that most listings specify the max. guest capacity, which oftentimes includes sofa beds. You will need to establish which bed configuration is suitable for your family.
• Some rental properties allow pets, and others do not. Acceptable types of family pet, weight and breeds may be restricted, and added costs may apply. Ask the host about pet restrictions before booking.
• Is your group looking for unique amenities? Most rental websites include search filters for amenities.
• Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for the less-mobile. Confirm all necessary amenities are available before reserving a rental.

More considerations for your visit:

• Take a copy of the owner's phone number and check in/check out procedures for your rental.
• Hosts are there to help! Don't be shy to ask questions during your stay.
• Keep your rental home locked while you are gone! Don't let crooks ruin your holiday.
• Upon arrival, make note of any issues with the property and immediately alert the property manager. Keep records of all coorespondence.
• Don't forget to respect your neighbors. Often, adjacent homes are filled by local residents. Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking regulations can make a stay significantly more pleasurable.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Residents can typically help. Who better to ask where to grab the best tacos, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fishing?
• At departure, take a walk-through to make sure you haven't forget any personal items. Re-check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden items. Clean the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Document the condition of the property at check-out. We recommend taking a video during your final walk-through.
• Did you have a great stay? Many vacation rental websites make it easy for travelers to provide feedback. If your rental and/or property manager was terrific, they always love to hear your praise. If anything was amiss and they failed to correct it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make it a point as part of your feedback.
