How to book the best vacation rental experience:

Getting the most from your vacation rental budget:

• In the Wilmington, NC area, The earlier you can reserve a vacation rental, the easier your search will be. The best vacation rentals are reserved very early. Reserving your rental property 6-12 months before your vacation dates is recommended. Holiday gatherings are excellent times to plan and reserve your vacation rental.
• Booking a rental in the Fall or Spring shoulder seasons is an excellent way to save on your vacation rental. Rates are lower, and you'll find a larger selection of acceptable homes. Many vacationers use this strategy to reserve larger homes, or to reserve an oceanfront rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during the high season. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Wilmington, NC vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation on the coast? Christmas, Thanksgiving, and New Years Eve are great times to gather with family and friends at the beach.
• Some property managers offer rate reductions for active duty military and veterans. Ask your property manager if special offers are available for your group before you book.
• Booking websites frequently offer their guests an option to purchase trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which generally will cost you between 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for days missed as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel stay or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance might be a a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for details.
• Often, property management companies supply Wilmington, NC area visitors guide magazines which include money-saving offers, either offered independently by local companies, or through a relationship between the management company and the business itself. You can also find Wilmington, NC visitors guide and coupon books at local gas stations and shopping centers.

Filter your search:

• To start, have your group decide on a vacation week and a maximum budget.
• Note the number beds and the bed configuration your group requires. Family and Dog Friendly 3\/2 Oak Island home has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our search.
• Precise information about bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is usually available on booking pages. If you don't see them listed, call the host before reserving your home. Note that most property listings specify the max. guest capacity, which frequently includes sofa beds in living rooms. You will need to work out which bed configuration is best for your vacation group.
• If your family is traveling with pets, you must reserve a pet-friendly property. Make sure to ask for details on breed, size, and type requirements. Note that some property managers charge pet deposits and fees.
• Visiting for a single event? Try a map search to browse nearby rentals.
• Suitable accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for persons with disabilities. Confirm all required amenities are included before booking.

Know before you go:

• Add the owner's contact info to your smartphone. Print and take a copy of arrival/departure procedures.
• Property managers are available to help! Feel free to ask any questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Protect the property owner (and your stuff!) by keeping the rental locked up while you are gone, just like you would back home.
• To ensure that damages are not attributed to your family's stay, make a record of any problem areas upon check in. Speak to the property manager right away to relay your findings. If there is a dispute about legal responsibility later, having a record of problems and contact attempts will be very helpful.
• Be respectful. Often times, nearby homes are filled by permanent residents. Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking rules can make a stay significantly more pleasurable.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Neighbors can typically help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to enjoy a steak with a view, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for bird watching?
• Just prior to departing, take a walk-through to confirm you have not leave anything behind. Remember to check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden belongings. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Go through the rental a final time and look for damage. We recommend walking through with the property manager whenever possible. If the property manager is not available, remember to take video and pictures of the property to record its condition at check-out.
• Did your family have a great time? Many rental managers make it easy for clients to provide feedback. If your property and/or host was great, they would love to hear it. If anything was amiss and they failed to correct it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make it a point as part of your review.
