Tips and Tricks to get the perfect Wilmington, NC vacation rental experience:

Get the most from your rental budget:

• Summer months are the most expensive season in coastal NC. Book your rental property in Fall or Spring months to get the benefit of gorgeous 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 near the ocean? Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with family and friends at the beach.
• Reserve your vacation home as soon as possible. Rental schedules often become available a year in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many families reserve their Summer vacation rentals during holiday get-togethers. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Some property management companies offer rate reductions for active duty military and veterans. Remember to ask your property manager if rate reductions are available for your group before you book.
• Booking websites often offer renters an option to add trip insurance. Trip insurance, which will generally cost anywhere between 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for days missed as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance can be a a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for more information.
• Look for your local Wilmington, NC visitors guide magazine when you arrive at the rental property. If your rental home doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local grocery stores and visitor centers. In addition to great local articles, travel guides have discounts for nearby tours and attractions.

Narrow your Search:

• Choose your vacation week and spending budget.
• Decide how many bedrooms and the configuration your group needs. ??Stunning Oceanfront Views-Pool-Beach Access-Sunflower House?? has 8 bedrooms and 6 bathrooms.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed types is commonly available online. If you don't see them listed, email or call the property manager before you reserve the property. Remember that most listings specify maximum guest capacity, which usually includes sofa beds and bunks.
• Looking for particular amenities? Most rental websites include search filters for amenities. Amenity filters help you quickly remove less-optimal properties.
• Suitable accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for persons with disabilities. Confirm all required amenities are included before booking
• If your group is traveling with pets, you'll need to search for a rental that allows animals. Get information on breed, weight, and type restrictions. Usually, property owners charge pet deposits and fees.

More considerations:

• We recommend storing the manager's contact information in your smartphone.
• Note any damages to the property during check in, and immediately send them to the owner. We specifically recommend e-mails and text messages, as they usually contain built-in time stamps that can be very helpful if a dispute is filed.
• Hosts are there to help! Feel free to ask any questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Respect the neighborhood. Frequently, surrounding homes are occupied by permanent residents. Respecting late-night noise limits and parking policies reduces conflict and allows everyone to enjoy their day.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Residents can usually help. Who better to ask where to grab the best tacos, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for bird watching?
• Keep the property locked while you are gone! Don't let burglars ruin your trip.
• Upon check-out, complete a walk-through to confirm you have not forget any personal items. Remember to check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden belongings. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Go through the property one final time and scan for damages to contents or the property itself. We advise inspecting the property with the host whenever you can. If the host is not available, take photos of the property to record its condition.
• After your trip, leave feedback! Property owners rely on great ratings to drive more reservations. They'll be much obliged for your feedback. Alternatively, if something went awry, other vacationing families will be thankful you shared your experience and help them have the best future vacation. Be fair with your review. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the owner could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded expeditiously to solve it.
