Tips and Tricks for getting the best Wilmington, NC rental experience:

Finding the best value:

• Book your rental as early as possible. Rental schedules generally become available 12 months in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many families book their Summer vacations during holiday gatherings. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Summer months are the most expensive season in the Wilmington, NC area. Book your Wilmington, NC rental in the Fall or Spring shoulder seasons to enjoy warm weather while saving money and avoiding crowded roads, restaurants, and activities.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property owner or host if your group qualifies for a discount.
• Management companies and individual rental owners often offer their guests an option to purchase vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which normally will cost anywhere between 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 unexpected hotel overnight or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for specifics.
• Many property management companies and vacation rental houses supply Wilmington, NC area travel guides that include special offers, either offered directly by local businesses, or by way of a relationship between the property management company and the business itself. You can also find Wilmington, NC area magazine and coupon books at local gas stations and shopping centers.

Planning and choosing your prefect Wilmington, NC rental home:

• Choose vacation week and maximum budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and what type of bedroom configuration you need. Island Girls & Island Boys - Sunset Properties has 5 bedrooms and 7 bathrooms.
• Precise information about bedrooms and bed counts is generally available online. If you don't see them listed, call the host before you reserve the vacation home. Note that most property listings specify the max. guest capacity, which oftentimes includes pull-out couches.
• If your family is traveling with pets, you'll need to book a property that allows animals. Request details on breed, weight, and type requirements. Be aware that some hosts charge pet deposits and fees.
• Is your group looking for particular amenities? Most rental websites include amenity lists and search filters. Use these to your advantage to find the perfect rental home.
• Proper accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for the less-mobile. Make certain to ask about wheel chair accessibility, pool lifts and specialized equipment needs.

Have a fantastic stay:

• Be sure you get the host's phone number and arrival/departure procedures for your rental property. Put the host's contact information in your smartphone.
• Hosts are great sources of help! Don't be shy to ask any questions during your stay.
• Protect the rental owner (and your stuff!) by keeping the rental locked up while you are out, just like you would at home.
• To make sure damages aren't linked to your family's visit, inspect for any problem areas upon check in. Make contact with the property manager immediately to report any pre-existing damages. If there is a dispute about who is responsible, having a record of problems and contact attempts will be very helpful.
• Be respectful. Often times, adjacent homes are filled by local residents. Respecting noise limits and parking regulations is the right thing to do.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Local residents can typically point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to see a beautiful sunrise or sunset, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for crabbing?
• At departure, take a walk-through to make sure you did not forget any personal items. Check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden treasure. Clean out the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Inspect the rental a final time and look for any damage. We advise walking through with the host whenever you can. If the manager isn't available, ensure that you take video of the rental to record its condition at check-out.
• Did your group have a great stay? Most rental websites make it easy for travelers to provide feedback. If your rental property and/or property manager was fantastic, they would love to hear it. If anything was out of order and they failed to fix it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make a note as part of your feedback.
