Finding the best rental home experience:

When to book & When to go:

• In the Wilmington, NC area, The sooner you can reserve a home, the better your selection will be. The most desirable rental homes are booked very early. Reserving your rental property up to 12 months before your vacation is recommended. Winter holidays are excellent times to plan and book your rental property.
• June, July, and August are the most expensive months in coastal NC. To get the best vacation home for your budget, we suggest reserving in the Spring or Fall. You'll enjoy lower rental rates, greater selection, warm weather and the absence of large crowds at the beach and popular Wilmington, NC attractions. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, or to book an oceanfront vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable 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 and Christmas are great times to gather with friends and family at your favorite beach.
• Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property owner or host if your family qualifies for a special promotion or discount.
• Property managers frequently offer their guests an option to obtain trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which usually costs 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed time as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance can be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for details.
• Many property management companies supply Wilmington, NC area visitors guides which include money-saving deals, either offered directly by local businesses, or through a relationship between the rental management company and the business itself. You can also find Wilmington, NC area magazine and coupon books at local gas stations and shopping centers.

Choosing and booking the rightvacation home:

• Choose a group leader, choose your dates, and choose a maximum budget.
• Decide how many beds and the bed configuration your family requires. Shell Haven! 2 min walk to beach, 4 Decks, Intracoastal views, and Dog Friendly! has 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms.
• Specific information about bedrooms and bed counts & types is often accessible on booking pages. Otherwise, email the host before you book the vacation home. Note that most listings specify maximum guest capacity, which usually includes pull out couches in living rooms.
• Some rental properties allow pets, and others don't. Allowable types of dog or cat, weight and breeds may be restricted, and added fees may apply. Ask the property management company about allowable breeds and types before booking.
• If there's a certain Wilmington, NC attraction you are crazy about, search for rentals that are either nearby, or those that cater especially to your desires.
• Appropriate accessibility can make or break a vacation for persons with disabilities. .

Tips for a fantastic stay:

• Review check in & check out procedures before traveling. Take a printed copy, and add a note with the directions to your phone.
• Property managers are there to help! Feel free to ask questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Lock your rental while you're out and about. Protect your property!
• To make sure damages are not attributed to your family's visit, inspect for any problem areas upon check in. Speak to the host right away to document any damages. If there is a dispute about legal responsibility later, having a record of issues and contact attempts will be helpful.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like troublesome visitors disrupting your peaceful neighborhood. Apply the golden rule for best judgement. Happy residents may even recommend great restaurants and places you would have never otherwise known!
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Neighbors can frequently help. Who better to ask where to see a beautiful sunrise or sunset, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for bird watching?
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before departing, take a walk through the rental property to make sure you've collected everything. Remember to check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden treasure. Clean the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Please make sure to walk through the property a final time and keep an eye out for any damage. We recommend inspecting the property with the host whenever you can. If the property manager isn't available, remember to take video of the property to record its condition at check-out.
• Did your family have a wonderful vacation? Most rental websites make it easy for vacationers to provide feedback. If your rental property and/or property management company was terrific, they always love to hear your praise. If anything was defective and they failed to correct it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make a note as part of your feedback.
