Tips to get the optimal Wilmington, NC vacation property experience:

Cost saving strategies:

• In the Wilmington, NC area, The sooner you can reserve a home, the easier your search will be. The most desirable vacation rentals are booked early. Reserving your rental home six - twelve months before your travel dates is recommended. Holiday gatherings are excellent times to plan and reserve your vacation home.
• Booking your Wilmington, NC vacation home in the Fall or Spring shoulder seasons is our best tip for saving money on your vacation. Rental rates are lower, and you'll find a larger selection of suitable properties. Many vacationers use this strategy to find larger homes within budget, or to reserve a beach front vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable during the Summer months.
• Owners sometimes offer discounts for veterans. Remember to ask your property manager if special discounts are available for your family.
• Management companies and individual rental owners frequently offer guests an option to purchase trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which normally costs 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed trip time as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance might be a a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for program terms and fees.
• Look for your local Wilmington, NC area magazine when you arrive at the rental property. If your rental doesn't have one, you can find them at local shops and visitor centers. In addition to great local articles, travel guide magazines have money saving offers on nearby attractions, tours, restaurants, and shops.

Finding the best rental home in the Wilmington, NC area:

• Choose a designated group leader, choose your vacation dates, and select a maximum budget.
• Note the number beds and the configuration your group requires. Cheerful 3BR\/2BA - just steps to the beach! has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our Wilmington, NC rentals search.
• Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is almost always accessible on booking websites. Otherwise, email or call the property management company before you reserve the vacation property. Note that most properties list the max. guest capacity, which oftentimes includes sofa beds and bunks. You will need to establish which bed configuration is best for your vacation.
• If your family is bringing pets, you'll need to search for a rental that allows animals. Get details on breed, size, and type restrictions. Some hosts require additional pet deposits and fees.
• If there's a specific Wilmington, NC attraction you crave, keep an eye out for homes that are either near by, or those that cater to your requirements.
• Suitable accessibility can make or break a vacation for persons with a disability. Make certain to ask about specialized equipment and wheel chair accessibility.

More considerations:

• Add the owner's information to your smartphone. Print and take a copy of arrival/departure procedures.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a garage door opener, A/V setup or thermostat. Contact your host. They are there to help! A brief phone call can prevent lots of concerns.
• Protect the rental owner (and your things!) by keeping the rental locked up while you are gone, just like you would back home.
• Upon arrival, record any damages to the rental property and immediately contact the property manager. Record all coorespondence.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like disagreeable vacationers disrupting your peaceful home life. Use the golden rule for common sense. If they like you, locals might even recommend great local food and places you would have never otherwise known!
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Neighbors can frequently help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to order delicious takeout, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for shopping?
• At departure, take a walk-through to confirm you didn't forget any personal items. Remember to check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden treasure. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Go through the property one final time and scan for any damage. We recommend walking through with the host whenever you can. If the property manager isn't available, take pictures of the rental to record its condition at check-out.
• Did your family have a fantastic time? Most vacation rental websites make it easy for customers to provide feedback. If your rental and/or property manager was great, they always love to hear your praise. If anything was inoperable 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.
