An outdoor shower fed from the garden hose is available for a fast rinse of the ocean water.

Back inside walk down the hallway where the laundry room sits behind folding doors. The primary bedroom is light and airy with modern design furnishings.

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

How to get the best value:

• In the Wilmington, NC area, The sooner you can book a rental home, the easier your search will be. The most desirable rental homes are reserved early. Booking your vacation home 6-12 months before your travel dates is recommended. Holiday gatherings are excellent times to search for and book your vacation home.
• Summer is the most expensive season in the Wilmington, NC area. Reserve your rental property in Spring or Fall to enjoy warm weather while saving money and avoiding crowds. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Wilmington, NC vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation near the ocean? Christmas, Thanksgiving, and New Years Eve are great times to gather with friends and family at the beach.
• Some hosts and property managers offer rate reductions for active duty military and veterans. Check with your property manager to see if special offers are available for your family before you book.
• Property managers usually offer customers an option to purchase vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which commonly will cost 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed time as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for more information.
• Often, management companies and vacation rental houses supply Wilmington, NC area travel guides that include money-saving deals, either offered independently by local businesses, or by way of a relationship between the management company and the business itself. You can also find visitors guide and coupon books at local gas stations and shopping centers.

Choosing the perfect rental:

• Start by choosing trip dates and a max budget.
• Note the number beds and the configuration you need. Perfect Little Beach Cottage for your stay on Oak Island has 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Specific information about bedrooms and bed counts & types is usually accessible on booking pages. If they are not listed, email the property manager before you book the property. Remember that most listings specify the max. guest capacity, which often includes pull-out couches. You will need to establish what bed configuration is best for your family.
• If your group is bringing pets, you must book a pet-friendly property. Make sure to ask for details on breed, size, and type restrictions. Be aware that some property managers charge pet deposits and fees.
• Looking for particular amenities? Most rental search websites include amenity lists and search filters. Filtering by amenity will allow you to quickly find the perfect rental home.
• Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for persons with a disability. Confirm all required amenities are included before booking

Considerations for your stay:

• Add the owner's information to your phone. Understand and take a copy of arrival/departure procedures.
• Hosts are available to help! Don't be shy to ask questions during your stay.
• Ensure you protect the rental owner (and your things!) by keeping the rental locked up while you are away, just like you would at home.
• To make certain damages aren't attributed to your stay, inspect for any problem areas during arrival. message the property manager right away to report any issues. If there is a dispute about legal responsibility later, having the recorded concerns and contact attempts will be valuable.
• Respecting quiet hours and parking rules can make a stay significantly more pleasurable. Be a good neighbor. You'll enhance your chance to make some new local friends, and resident neighbors can be an incredible source for finding the best local restaurants, beaches, and hangouts.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Residents can often help. Who better to ask where to find the best seashells, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fishing?
• Re-check every room of the property to confirm that you've packed all personal items at check-out. Make sure to check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden items. Clean out the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Go through the rental one final time and look for damages to contents or the property itself. We suggest inspecting the property with the property manager whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the manager isn't available, ensure that you take photos of the rental to record its condition at check-out.
• Did your group have a wonderful stay? Most rental home management companies make it easy for travelers to provide reviews. If your property and/or property manager was terrific, they will likely appreciate your kind words. If anything was imperfect and they failed to correct it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make it a point as part of your feedback.
