Our top Wilmington, NC rental home tips:

Money saving strategies:

• Summertime is high season in Wilmington. To get the best vacation home within your budget, we suggest booking in the Spring or Fall. You'll enjoy lower rental rates, greater selection, beautiful weather and the absence of giant crowds at Wilmington, NC restaurants, beaches, and activities.
• In the Wilmington, NC area, The earlier your group can book a rental home, the better your selection will be. The best rental properties are booked early. Booking your vacation property six to twelve months before your vacation is recommended. Holidays such as Christmas and Thanksgiving are excellent times to plan and reserve your rental home.
• Some hosts offer promotional rates for active duty military and veterans. It's always a good idea to check with your property manager to see if special offers are available for your group before you book.
• Property managers often offer guests an option to obtain trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which will generally cost anywhere between 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed trip time as a result of medical-related issues or weather, as well as evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance might be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for additional information.
• Look for your local Wilmington, NC area magazine when you check-in. If your rental property doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local shops and visitor centers. In addition to great local articles, visitors guides have coupons for nearby attractions, tours, restaurants, and shops.

• Select vacation week and maximum budget.
• Decide how many bedrooms and what type of bedroom configuration your family needs. Cozy Cottage Near Downtown w\/ NO Cleaning Chores has 2 bedrooms and 1 bathrooms.
• Precise information regarding bedrooms and bed counts is regularly available on booking pages. Otherwise, reach out to the property manager before you reserve your home. Remember that most properties list the maximum guest capacity, which usually includes sofa beds. You'll need to work out what configuration is best for your vacation group.
• Visiting for a specific event or attraction? Use a map search to browse nearby rentals.
• Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for guests with disabilities. Make certain to ask about wheel chair entry, pool lifts and specialized equipment needs.
• Remember to include your furry companions! Although a number of vacation homes allow pets or animals, guidelines and costs vary per property. Type of pet, size and breeds may be limited. Ask your property manager before booking, and study your agreement thoroughly! Pet fees or charges might be applied to your agreement.

More considerations:

• Put the manager's information in your smartphone.
• To make sure that damages are not attributed to your visit, make note of any problem areas during check in. text the property manager right away to report your findings. If there is a dispute about who is responsible, having the recorded problems and contact attempts will be useful.
• Property managers are great sources of help! Feel free to ask questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Respect your neighbors. Often times, adjacent homes are occupied by permanent residents. Respecting quiet hours and parking policies is the right thing to do.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Neighbors can often help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to spend a rainy day, have a great night out, or the best spots for shopping?
• Protect the owner (and your stuff!) by locking the rental when you are away, just like you would back home.
• When it's time to leave, complete a final walk-through to make sure you haven't leave anything behind. Make sure to check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden items. Clean the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Inspect the property a final time and scan for any damage. We recommend walking through with the host whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the manager is not available, ensure that you take photos of the property to record its condition.
• Did your group have a terrific time? Most rental websites make it easy for customers to provide feedback. If your rental property and/or property management company was terrific, they would love to hear about it. If anything was imperfect and they failed to fix it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make a note as part of your comments.
