Strategies to get the perfect Wilmington, NC rental home experience:

Getting the most from your spending budget:

• Summer is the most expensive season in Bald Head Island. To find the best rental for your budget, we strongly suggest reserving in the Fall or Spring shoulder seasons. You'll enjoy lower rates, greater selection, beautiful weather and the absence of giant crowds at restaurants, beaches, and activities.
• In the Wilmington, NC area, The sooner your group can book, the better your selection will be. The best vacation homes are booked early. Reserving your rental home six - twelve months before your vacation dates is recommended. Christmas, Thanksgiving and New Years Eve are excellent times to plan and book your rental home.
• Property managers sometimes offer discounts for active duty military and veterans. Check with your property manager to see if discounts are available for your family before you book.
• Property management companies frequently offer their guests an option to add vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which generally will cost you anywhere between 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed vacation time as a result of medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for specifics.
• Look for your local Wilmington, NC area magazine upon arrival. If your rental doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local grocery stores and visitor centers. In addition to great local stories, travel guides contain coupons for nearby attractions, tours, restaurants, and shops.

Selecting the perfect rental:

• Start by choosing the best vacation week and a spending budget.
• Note the number beds and what type of bedroom configuration you need. Morning Light - Featured Home in 2010 Haven Magazine has 4 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed types is usually available on booking pages. If they are not listed, email the property management company before reserving the vacation home. Remember that most properties list maximum guest capacity, which typically includes sofa beds and bunks.
• Is your group looking for unique amenities? Most rental websites include search filters with amenity lists. Filtering by amenity will allow you to quickly find your ideal rental home.
• Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for guests with disabilities. Confirm all required amenities are available and included before reserving a rental
• If your family is vacationing with pets, search for a rental that allows animals. Request details on breed, weight, and type restrictions. Note that some property owners charge pet deposits and fees.

Have a wonderful stay:

• We recommend storing the host's information in your smartphone.
• Make a record of any issues with the rental during check in, and immediately e-mail them to the property manager. We specifically recommend e-mails and text messages, as they usually contain time stamps that are valuable if damages are attributed to your stay.
• Property managers are great sources of help! Don't be shy to ask any questions during your stay.
• Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking regulations can make a stay significantly more pleasurable. You will magnify your chance to make local friends, and resident neighbors are usually a terrific source for finding the best local beaches and restaurants.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Locals can usually help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to spend a rainy day, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for bird watching?
• Protect the rental owner (and your things!) by locking and securing the home while you are out, just like you would at home.
• At departure, take a walk-through to confirm you haven't forget any personal items. Re-check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms 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.
• After your trip, leave feedback! Property owners rely on great ratings to inspire future bookings. They'll be much obliged for your review. Alternatively, if something wasn't right, other vacationers will appreciate that you share your experience and help them have the best future vacation. Be fair with your review. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the host could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded expeditiously to solve it.
