Tricks and tips to get the optimal rental experience:

How to get the best rental home value:

• In the Wilmington, NC area, The earlier you can book a rental home, the better your selection will be. The best vacation rentals are booked early. Reserving your vacation property six - twelve months before your travel dates is recommended. Winter holidays are excellent times to plan and reserve your vacation rental.
• Summer time is high season in the Wilmington, NC area. To book the largest vacation home within budget, we recommend booking in Fall or Spring. You'll enjoy lower rates, greater selection, gorgeous weather and the absence of giant crowds at Wilmington, NC restaurants, tours, and activities. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, or to reserve an oceanfront vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during the Summer months.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property owner whether your family qualifies for a discount.
• Property management companies usually offer customers an option to buy vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which normally costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed days as a result of medical-related issues or weather, as well as ensuing additional evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance might be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for details.
• Find a copy of your local Wilmington, NC visitors guide upon checking in. If your rental property doesn't have one, you can find them at local grocery stores and visitor centers. In addition to great local stories, visitor guides have money saving offers on nearby accommodations, restaurants and tours.

Choosing the best vacation home in Wilmington:

• Select your vacation dates and spending budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and the bed configuration your group requires. Pet-Friendly Wilmington Home ~ 5 Mi to Beach! has 4 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our Wilmington, NC vacation rental search.
• Precise information regarding bedrooms and bed types is normally accessible on booking websites. If you don't see them listed, call the host before reserving your rental. Remember that most property listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which oftentimes includes sofa beds and bunks.
• If your family is vacationing with pets, you'll need to find a property that allows animals. Make sure to ask for information on breed, weight, and type restrictions. Often, property managers require additional pet deposits and fees.
• Visiting for a specific attraction or event? Use a map search to find nearby properties.
• Suitable accessibility can make or break a vacation for persons with disabilities. Confirm all necessary amenities are available before booking.

Advice for a wonderful stay:

• Get the host's contact number and check in/check out procedures for your rental. We recommend storing the manager's contact information in your smartphone.
• Property managers are available to help! Don't be shy to ask questions during your stay.
• Protect the rental owner (and your stuff!) by keeping the rental locked up when you are gone, just like you would at home.
• At Check-in, document any damages to the rental property and immediately alert the property manager. Keep records of all correspondence in case a dispute arises.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like disagreeable visitors bothering your peaceful neighborhood. Practice the golden rule for common sense. Happy residents may even recommend great restaurants and places you would have not otherwise known!
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Locals can usually point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to get the best breakfast in town, have a great night out, or the best spots for fine dining?
• Re-check every room of the vacation property to make sure that you've packed all of your belongings at check-out. Re-check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden treasure. Clean the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Please make sure to walk through the property one final time and look for damage. We advise inspecting the property with the host whenever possible. If the host isn't available, ensure that you take photos and video of the rental to record its condition at check-out.
• Remember to leave a review! Property managers rely on excellent ratings to drive future bookings. They'll be much obliged for your review. Alternatively, if something wasn't right, other families will appreciate that you share your experience and help them have the best future vacation. Remember to be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the host had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded quickly to remedy it.
