How to find the best Wilmington, NC vacation home experience:

When to book & When to go:

• Booking your Wilmington, NC vacation home in the Fall or Spring shoulder seasons is an excellent way to save money on your rental home. Rental rates are lower, and you'll find a better selection of suitable homes. Many vacationers use this method to find larger homes within budget, or to book a beach front vacation rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during the Summer months.
• Reserve your vacation home as early as possible. Rental schedules generally open 12 months in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many groups book their Summer rental homes during Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years Eve get-togethers. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Some hosts and property managers offer promotional rates for active duty military and veterans. It's always a good idea to check with your property manager to see if special offers are available for your family before you book.
• Property managers usually offer renters an option to obtain vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which commonly will cost you 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed days as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance can be a a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for program terms and fees.
• Many property management companies and vacation rental houses supply Wilmington, NC area visitor guide magazines that include special deals, either offered directly by local companies, or through a relationship between the management company and the business itself. You can also find Wilmington, NC visitors guide and coupon books at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers.

Selecting and booking a perfectvacation home:

• Choose your dates and spending budget.
• Determine how many beds and the configuration your group requires. Oceanfront Cottage w/ Panoramic Views & Vintage Vibes - The Last Chance has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our Wilmington, NC rental home search.
• Specific details about bedrooms and bed counts is commonly available on booking pages. If they are not listed, call the property owner before booking the home. Note that most properties list the max. guest capacity, which typically includes sofa beds.
• Does your group require particular amenities? Most rental search websites include search filters for amenities. Use these filters to your advantage to find the perfect rental home.
• Appropriate accessibility can make or break a vacation for those with limited mobility. .
• If your group is traveling with pets, you will need a property that allows animals. Ask for information on breed, size, and type requirements. Note that some property managers charge additional pet fees.

Considerations for your stay:

• Be sure you get the owner's contact number and check in/check out procedures for your rental property.
• To ensure that no damages are attributed to your stay, inspect for any problem areas when you arrive. Call the host immediately to document any damages. If there is a dispute, having the recorded issues and contact attempts will be very helpful.
• Hosts are available to help! Don't be shy to ask questions during your stay.
• Be respectful. Often times, nearby homes are filled by local residents. Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking regulations can make a stay significantly more pleasurable.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Neighbors can often help. Who better to ask where to find the fresh catch of the day, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for bird watching?
• Keep the property locked while you're away! Don't let thieves ruin your trip.
• Don't leave anything behind! Before you drive away, walk through the rental to reconfirm you've collected all of your things. Make sure to check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden belongings. Clean out the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Walk through the property a final time and keep an eye out for any damage. We advise inspecting the property with the property manager whenever possible. If the property manager isn't available, remember to take photos of the rental to record its condition.
• Did your family have a excellent time? Many rental home management companies make it easy for travelers to provide reviews. If your rental property and/or property manager was fantastic, they would love to hear it. If anything was inoperable and they failed to fix it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make a note as part of your comments.
