Strategies to get the optimal rental experience:

Getting the most from your spending budget:

• The sooner you can book a rental home, the better your selection will be. The most desirable properties are reserved early. Booking your vacation property 6-12 months before your vacation is recommended. Holiday gatherings are excellent times to search for and reserve your rental.
• To find the best value, try changing your family's Wilmington, NC vacation week to the Spring or Fall months. May, September, and October offer warmer weather, less crowded beaches, and reduced traffic.
• Property managers sometimes offer rate reductions for veterans. Ask your host or property manager if special offers are available for your family.
• Booking websites often offer their guests an option to add trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which usually will cost you 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed time as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional evacuation costs or charges, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance might be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for additional information.
• Look for your local visitors guide when you arrive at the rental property. If your rental home doesn't have one, you can find them at local shops and visitor centers. In addition to great local articles, visitor guides contain coupons for nearby attractions, tours, restaurants, and shops.

Narrow your Search:

• Begin by choosing a vacation week and a budget.
• Determine how many beds and what type of bedroom configuration your family requires. NEW!! Playroom, Modern Home, Greenway & Park, Dog Friendly! has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is normally accessible online. Otherwise, call the property management company before booking the rental. Note that most listings specify the max. guest capacity, which usually includes sofa beds in living rooms.
• Some rental properties allow pets, and others do not. Acceptable types of pet, size and breeds may be restricted, and added charges may apply. Ask the owner about allowable breeds and types before booking.
• Does your group require specific amenities? Most websites include search filters for amenities. Amenity filters help you quickly remove less-optimal properties.
• Proper accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for the less-mobile. Confirm all necessary amenities are available and included before booking.

Tips for your stay:

• Be sure you get the owner's phone number and check in/check out procedures for your rental property.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a hot tub, elevator or coffee maker. Contact your property manager. They are there to help! A brief phone call can prevent many concerns.
• Lock your rental property while you are gone! Don't let crooks spoil your vacation.
• Document any damages to the property during check in, and immediately e-mail them to the host. We specifically recommend e-mails and text messages, as they usually contain time stamps that can be useful if damages are assessed.
• Respect your neighbors. Often times, adjacent homes are occupied by permanent residents. Respecting quiet hours and parking rules reduces conflict and allows everyone to enjoy their day.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Locals can often help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to find the best bike paths, have a great night out, or the best spots for crabbing?
• Double-check every room of the property to make sure that you've packed all belongings at departure. Check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden treasure. Clean out the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Walk through the property a final time and look for any damage. We suggest inspecting the property with the property manager whenever possible. If the manager isn't available, remember to take photos of the rental to record its condition.
• Did your family have a terrific time? Many rental management companies make it easy for customers to provide feedback. If your property and/or property management company was terrific, they would love to hear about it. If anything was amiss and they failed to correct it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make a note as part of your review.
