How to book the best Wilmington vacation home experience:

When to visit & When to reserve a rental home:

• The sooner your group can book a vacation home, the better your selection will be. The best properties are booked early. Reserving your vacation rental up to twelve months before your vacation dates is recommended. Holidays such as Christmas and Thanksgiving are excellent times to plan and reserve your vacation home.
• June, July, and August are the most expensive months along the coast of NC. Book your rental property in Fall or Spring to get the benefit of beautiful weather while saving money and avoiding crowds.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective host if your group qualifies for a special promotion or discount.
• Property managers often offer guests an option to buy vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which generally costs between 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed trip time as a result of medical-related issues or weather, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance might be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for program terms and fees.
• Look for your local Wilmington, NC area magazine upon checking in. If your rental doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local shops and fuel stations. In addition to great information, visitors guide magazines have money saving offers on local accommodations and attractions.

Use filters to narrow your rental search:

• First, have your group decide on the best dates and a maximum budget.
• Note the number bedrooms and what type of bedroom configuration you need. Updated/Resort StyleSleeps-9-Beach-5 min/Pool/Dining/pickle Ball-Prime location has 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Precise information about bedrooms and bed counts & types is generally available on booking websites. If not, call the property management company before you reserve the home. Note that most properties list the max. guest capacity, which frequently includes pull-out couches and bunk beds. You will need to work out what is best for your family.
• If your group is bringing pets, you'll need to search for a pet-friendly vacation rental. Ask for information on breed, weight, and type requirements. Some hosts charge additional pet fees.
• Are you visiting for a single event or attraction? Try a map search to locate nearby properties.
• Proper accessibility can make or break a vacation for persons with disabilities. Make certain to inquire about specialized equipment and wheel chair accessibility.

Additional considerations:

• Review check in & check out procedures before leaving home. Take a printed copy, and add a note with the directions to your smartphone.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a hot tub, television set or thermostat. Contact your property manager. They are there to help! A brief call prevents a lot of issues.
• Lock your rental property while you are out! Don't let burglars ruin your family vacation.
• Record any damages to the rental upon arrival, and immediately contact the host. We specifically recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain built-in time stamps that are valuable if a dispute arises.
• Be respectful of your neighbors. Often, surrounding homes are filled by permanent residents. Respecting quiet hours and parking rules reduces conflict and allows everyone to enjoy their day.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Neighbors can frequently help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to find the fresh catch of the day, have a great night out, or the best spots for crabbing?
• When it's time to leave, take a walk-through to confirm you did not leave anything behind. Make sure to check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden items. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Go through the rental one final time and look for any damage. We suggest walking through with the host whenever possible. If the host is not available, take video and pictures of the rental to record its condition.
• Did your group have a wonderful vacation? Many rental home management companies make it easy for travelers to provide comments. If your rental property and/or property management company was wonderful, they would love to hear about it. If anything was defective and they failed to fix it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make a note as part of your comments.
