Strategies to get the perfect rental home experience:

When to visit & When to book:

Summer is high season in the Wilmington, NC area. To book the best vacation home within your budget, we strongly suggest booking in the Fall or Spring. You'll enjoy lower rental rates, greater selection, beautiful weather and the absence of giant crowds at popular Wilmington, NC attractions and restaurants. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Wilmington, NC vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday on the coast? Christmas, Thanksgiving, and New Years Eve are great times to gather with family and friends at the beach.
The earlier your group can book a vacation rental, the easier your search will be. The most desirable vacation rentals are booked very early. Booking your rental six to twelve months before your vacation is recommended. Holiday gatherings are excellent times to search for and book your rental.
Veterans and Active Duty Military members may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective vacation rental company or host if your family qualifies for a special rate.
Booking websites usually offer guests an option to add vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which normally will cost between 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed trip time as a result of medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel stay or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance can be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for program terms and fees.
Often, management companies supply Wilmington, NC area visitors guides which include special offers, either offered independently by local companies, or by way of a relationship with the rental management company and the business itself. You can also find Wilmington, NC area magazine and coupon books at local gas stations and shopping centers.

Selecting the perfect vacation home in Carolina Beach:

Start by selecting your a vacation week and a maximum budget.
Note the number bedrooms and the configuration you need. New! Condo with Dock + Pool has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
Specific information about bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is often accessible on booking websites. If they are not listed, reach out to the property manager before you book the vacation property. Remember that most property listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which frequently includes pull out couches in living rooms. You'll need to establish what bed configuration is best for your group.
Visiting for a single attraction or event? Use a map search to browse nearby rentals.
Suitable accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for guests with disabilities. .
Some rentals allow pets, but others do not. Acceptable types of pet, size and breeds may be restricted, and additional fees may apply. Ask your host about allowable pet guidelines before booking.

Have a wonderful stay:

Get the property manager's contact number and arrival/departure procedures for your rental property. Store the manager's information in your smartphone.
During check-in, document any damages to the property and immediately contact the host. Keep records of all coorespondence.
Ask questions. You may need instructions for a fireplace, elevator or washer/dryer. Contact your host. They are there to help! A brief telephone call can prevent a lot of issues.
Respect your neighbors. Frequently, nearby homes are occupied by local residents. Respecting late-night noise limits and parking rules reduces conflict and allows everyone to enjoy their day.
Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Locals can usually help. Who better to ask where to get the best breakfast in town, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for bird watching?
Protect the property owner (and your things!) by locking and securing the home when you are gone, just like you would at home.
Double-check every room of the rental property to make sure that you've packed all belongings at departure. Remember to check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden items. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
Go through the rental a final time and keep an eye out for any damage. We suggest walking through with the property manager whenever you can. If the host is not available, take photos and video of the rental to record its condition at check-out.
Did you have a fantastic time? Most rental home management companies make it easy for customers to provide feedback. If your property and/or host was terrific, they will likely appreciate your kind words. If anything was wrong and they failed to correct it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make a note as part of your feedback.
