Our top Wilmington, NC rental home tips and tricks:

Finding your perfect rental home:

• To find the best value, consider changing your family's Wilmington, NC vacation to the Spring or Fall seasons. May, September, and October offer great weather, less crowded beaches, and greatly reduced traffic. Many vacationers use this strategy to find larger homes within budget, or to reserve an oceanfront rental that would otherwise be unavailable during June, July, and August. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Wilmington, NC vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday on the coast? Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with family and friends at the beach.
• In the Wilmington, NC area, The earlier you can reserve a home, the better your selection will be. The best rental homes are booked early. Reserving your rental property six to twelve months before your vacation dates is recommended. Christmas, Thanksgiving and New Years Eve are excellent times to search for and book your rental.
• Some property management companies offer special rates for veterans. Make sure to check with your property manager to see if rate reductions are available for your group.
• Property management companies usually offer guests an option to buy trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed time as a result of medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for specifics.

You can also find Wilmington, NC visitors guide and coupon books at local gas stations and shopping centers.

• Did your group have a fantastic vacation? Most rental websites make it easy for travelers to provide reviews. If your rental and/or property manager was great, they would love to hear it.
