Wilmington, NC rental home tips:

How to get the best rental value:

• Summer is the most expensive season along the coast of NC. Reserve your Wilmington, NC rental property in Fall or Spring months to get the benefit of gorgeous weather while saving money and avoiding crowded roads, restaurants, and activities. Many vacationers use this strategy to reserve larger homes, or to book a beach front 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 near the ocean? Christmas, Thanksgiving, and New Years Eve are great times to gather with family and friends at the beach.
• The earlier your group can book a vacation rental, the easier your search will be. The most desirable rental homes are reserved early. Booking your rental property six to twelve months before your travel dates is recommended. Holiday gatherings are excellent times to plan and book your rental property.
• Some owners offer discounts or promotional rates for veterans and active duty military. Check with your property manager to see if rate reductions are available for your group.
• Booking websites typically offer renters an option to purchase trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which normally will cost you 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed vacation time as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel stay or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance can be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for specifics.
• Many property management companies and vacation rental houses supply Wilmington, NC area visitor guides which include money-saving offers, either offered independently by local companies, or by way of a partnership between the management company and the business itself. You can also find visitors guide and coupon books at local shops and grocery stores.

Use filters to narrow your rental search:

• Select vacation week and maximum budget.
• Decide how many beds and the bed configuration you need. 0ur Ocean Retreat \/ 1106 E. Beach Drive - Coastal Vacation Resorts has 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed types is usually available online. If you don't see them listed, contact the property management company before you book the property. Note that most properties list maximum guest capacity, which oftentimes includes sofa beds.
• If there's a certain Wilmington, NC attraction you crave, keep an eye out for homes that are either close by, or those that cater especially to your requirements.
• Proper accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for the less-mobile. .
• Some rental properties allow pets, but some don't. Allowable types of family pet, weight and breeds may be restricted, and additional fees may apply. Ask the host about pets before booking.

Some things to know before you go:

• Add the owner's contact info to your smartphone. Take a copy of arrival/departure procedures.
• Make a record of any issues with the property at check in, and immediately contact the property manager. We specifically recommend e-mails and text messages, as they usually contain built-in time stamps that are valuable if a dispute is filed.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a hot tub, television set or kitchen appliance. Contact your host. They are there to help! A brief text message can prevent quite a few issues.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like disrespectful vacationers disrupting your home life. Employ the golden rule for best judgement. If they like you, locals might even recommend great restaurants and scenic spots you would have never otherwise known!
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Residents can usually help. Who better to ask where to get the best breakfast in town, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for BBQ?
• Keep your rental home locked while you're gone! Don't let thieves spoil your holiday.
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before departing, take a walk through the property to make sure you've collected everything. Remember to check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden items. Clean out the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Go through the property one final time and keep an eye out for damage. We recommend walking through with the property manager whenever possible. If the property manager is not available, ensure that you take photographs of the property to record its condition.
• Remember to leave a review! Property owners rely on good reviews to stimulate future bookings. They'll be grateful for your feedback. Alternatively, if something wasn't right, other vacationing families will be thankful you shared your review and help them have the best future vacation. Be fair with your review. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the property manager could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded reasonably to remedy it.
