In the Wilmington, NC area, The earlier you can book a vacation rental, the easier your search will be. The best rental properties are reserved very early.

Tips for a wonderful stay:

Put the manager's contact information in your smartphone and wallet.
To make sure that no damages are linked to your family's visit, record any problem areas upon check in. E-mail the host immediately to document any pre-existing damages. If there is a dispute, having the recorded problems and contact attempts will be helpful.
Hosts are great sources of help! Feel free to ask questions before, during, or after your stay.
Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like obnoxious visitors bothering your life at home. Employ the golden rule for common sense. Happy residents may even recommend great beaches and places you would have never otherwise known!
Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Neighbors can frequently 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 fine dining?
Protect the rental owner (and your things!) by locking the property when you are away, just like you would at home.
Double-check every room of the rental property to make sure that you've packed all belongings at check-out. Make sure to check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden belongings. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
Document the condition of the property at check-out. We recommend taking a video during your final walk-through.
Did your group have a terrific vacation? Most rental managers make it easy for customers to provide feedback. If your rental property and/or property management company was terrific, they would love to hear it. If anything was inoperable and they failed to correct it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make it a point as part of your review.
