Tricks and tips to get the best rental experience:

Get the most from your spending budget:

• Reserve your rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules generally open twelve months in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many groups book their Summer rental homes during Winter holiday gatherings. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Summer is the most expensive season in Holden Beach. To get the best vacation home within your budget, we highly recommend booking in the Spring or Fall. You'll benefit from lower rates, better selection, beautiful weather and the absence of large crowds at popular Wilmington, NC attractions and restaurants.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property owner whether your group qualifies for a discount.
• Booking websites frequently offer customers an option to purchase vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which costs between 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed trip time as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for program terms and fees.
• Find a copy of your local Wilmington, NC visitors guide when you check-in. If your rental doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local shops and fuel stations. In addition to great local stories, visitors guide magazines contain money saving offers on nearby tours and attractions.

Use filters to search efficiently:

• Select your vacation dates and budget.
• Note the number beds and the bed configuration your family requires. Oceanfront home with private pool, ocean views, outdoor shower, & beach access has 5 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms.
• Specific details about bedrooms and bed counts & types is commonly accessible on booking websites. Otherwise, call the property manager before you book your rental. Note that most property listings specify the max. guest capacity, which often includes sofa beds. You will need to establish what configuration is best for your vacation family.
• If your group is bringing pets, you will need a pet-friendly rental. Make sure to ask for specifics on breed, size, and type requirements. Note that some property owners require additional pet deposits and fees.
• If there's a specific Wilmington, NC attraction you simply love, look for rentals that are either near by, or those that cater especially to your requirements.
• Suitable accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for the less-mobile. Confirm all required amenities are included before booking.

More tips for your visit:

• Take a copy of the owner's phone number and arrival/departure procedures for your .
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a fireplace, A/V setup or kitchen appliance. Contact your owner. They are there to help! A brief telephone call prevents quite a few difficulties.
• Keep the property locked while you're out! Don't let burglars ruin your holiday.
• Upon check-in, note any damages to the property and immediately contact the host. Record all coorespondence.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like troublesome visitors bothering your peaceful neighborhood. Employ the golden rule for best judgement. If they like you, locals might even recommend great local food and places you would've not otherwise known!
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Local residents can typically help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to spend a rainy day, have a great night out, or the best spots for fishing?
• When it's time to leave, take a final walk-through to make sure you haven't forget anything. Remember to check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden treasure. Clean out the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Inspect the property one final time and scan for damages to contents or the property itself. We recommend inspecting the property with the host whenever possible. If the manager is not available, take video of the property to record its condition.
• Did your group have a excellent vacation? Most rental management companies make it easy for customers to provide comments. If your rental and/or property management company was terrific, they would love to hear it. If anything was inoperable and they failed to address it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make a note as part of your comments.
