Rental home booking tips:

Getting the most from your budget:

• Reserve your rental home in Fall or Spring months to get the benefit of gorgeous weather while saving money and avoiding crowds. Many vacationers use this strategy to find larger homes within budget, or to book an oceanfront rental that would otherwise be unavailable during the high season. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter 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 the beach.
• Book your rental as early as possible. Rental schedules generally open twelve months in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many families reserve their Summer rental homes during holiday get-togethers. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Some property managers offer discounts for veterans. It's always a good idea to check with your property manager to see if special offers are available for your group.
• Booking websites frequently offer customers an option to buy trip insurance. Trip insurance, which normally costs 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed trip time as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance can be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for specifics.
• Find a copy of your local Wilmington, NC area magazine when you arrive at the rental property. If your rental home doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local grocery stores and visitor centers. In addition to great articles, visitor guide magazines have offers and deals for nearby accommodations, tours and attractions.

Narrow your rental Search:

• Select a designated group leader, select your vacation dates, and choose a spending budget.
• Decide how many bedrooms and the bed configuration your group requires. **Amazing Lux Home for Family Vacations/Weddings/Golf Trips/ Corporate Groups** has 8 bedrooms and 8 bathrooms.
• Precise information about bedrooms and bed types is generally available online. If you don't see them listed, contact the property manager before booking the rental. Note that most properties list maximum guest capacity, which often includes pull-out couches.
• Does your family require specific amenities? Most rental search websites include amenity lists and search filters. Use these to your advantage to find the perfect rental home.
• Suitable accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for guests with disabilities. .
• If your group is traveling with pets, you'll need to find a property that allows animals. Ask for details on breed, weight, and type requirements. Often, hosts charge additional pet fees.

Tips for your stay:

• Add the host's information to your phone. Take a copy of check in/check out procedures.
• To make sure damages are not attributed to your family's stay, inspect the rental for any problem areas upon your arrival. Call the host immediately to record any issues. If there is a dispute about who is responsible, having a record of issues and contact attempts will be helpful.
• Property managers are great sources of help! Feel free to ask questions during your stay.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like disagreeable visitors bothering your peaceful neighborhood. Use the golden rule for common sense. Happy residents may even recommend great restaurants and attractions you would have never otherwise known about!
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Local residents can usually help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to find the best bike paths, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for crabbing?
• Lock your rental property while you are away! Don't let thieves spoil your trip.
• Just prior to departing, complete a final walk-through to confirm you didn't forget anything. Remember to check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden belongings. Remove everything from 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 your family have a fantastic stay? Many rental websites make it easy for travelers to provide reviews. If your rental and/or property manager was great, they will likely appreciate your kind words. If anything was inoperable and they failed to fix it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make it a point as part of your feedback.
