Wilmington, NC vacation rental tips:

Find your perfect vacation home:

• In the Wilmington, NC area, The earlier your group can book a rental home, the easier your search will be. The most desirable rental homes are reserved early. Reserving your vacation property six - twelve months before your travel dates is recommended. Winter holidays are excellent times to plan and book your rental home.
• Summertime is high season in the Wilmington, NC area. To get the best value, try changing your family's Wilmington, NC vacation week to the Spring or Fall shoulder seasons. May, September, and October offer pleasant temperatures, , and reduced traffic.
• Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective host whether your group qualifies for a discount.
• Management companies and individual rental owners usually offer guests an option to obtain trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which normally costs between 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed time as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as ensuing additional evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance can be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for program terms and fees.
• Find a copy of your local visitors guide upon arrival. If your rental property doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local shops and fuel stations. In addition to great information, travel guide magazines have deals for nearby shops and restaurants.

Choosing the best vacation rental in the Wilmington, NC area:

• Select vacation week and maximum budget.
• Decide how many beds and the configuration your family requires. Updated Luxury, Family Friendly - Kayak Our Dock, Clubs has 3 bedrooms and 8 bathrooms.
• Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts & types is generally accessible on booking pages. If you don't see them listed, email or call the property manager before booking the home. Note that most listings specify maximum guest capacity, which oftentimes includes sofa beds. You will need to establish what is optimal for your family.
• Some properties allow pets, and some do not. Acceptable types of pet, weight and breeds may be restricted, and added costs may apply. Ask the property management company about allowable pet guidelines before booking.
• Visiting for a single event? Use a map search to find nearby rentals.
• Suitable accessibility can make or break a vacation for persons with a disability. Confirm all required amenities are available and included before reserving a rental.

Considerations for your stay:

• Get the host's contact number and entry/exit procedures for your rental. Store the manager's information in your smartphone and wallet.
• Hosts are great sources of help! Feel free to ask any questions during your stay.
• Protect the property owner (and your things!) by keeping the rental locked up when you are out, just like you would back home.
• Upon arrival, document any damages to the property and immediately contact the property manager. Record all correspondence in case a dispute arises.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like troublesome vacationers bothering your life at home. Practice the golden rule for common sense. Happy residents may even recommend great restaurants and scenic spots you would have not otherwise known about!
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Neighbors can frequently help. Who better to ask where to order delicious takeout, have a great night out, or the best spots for fine dining?
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before departing, walk through the rental to reconfirm you've collected all belongings. Re-check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden belongings. Clean 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 group have a wonderful time? Many vacation rental websites make it easy for travelers to provide comments. If your rental property and/or host was great, they will likely appreciate your kind words. If anything was out of order and they failed to address it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make a note as part of your feedback.
