Wilmington, NC vacation rental booking tips and tricks:

Money saving strategies:

• Reserve your vacation home as soon as possible. Rental schedules usually become available 12 months in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many groups book their Summer vacation rentals during holiday get-togethers. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• June, July, and August are the most expensive months in Holden Beach. Reserving a rental home in the Fall or Spring shoulder seasons is our favorite way to save money on your vacation rental. Rates are lower, and you'll find a better selection of desirable properties. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the 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 friends and family at the beach.
• Property managers sometimes offer special rates for active duty military and veterans. Remember to ask your host or property manager if special discounts are available for your family.
• Booking websites usually offer customers an option to purchase trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which costs 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for days missed as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather, as well as hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance can be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for more information.
• Many management companies and vacation rental houses supply Wilmington, NC area travel guides which include coupons, either offered independently by local businesses, or by way of a relationship with 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 search efficiently:

• Select vacation dates and maximum budget.
• Determine how many beds and the bed configuration your group requires. Hobbs Realty - Very Last Home on the Island w\/Heated Pool, Elevator, Luxury Amenities has 5 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our vacation rental search.
• Precise details about bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is usually available online. If not, email or call the property management company before reserving the rental. Remember that most property listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which oftentimes includes pull-out couches and bunk beds.
• Do your family pets travel with you? Although a number of vacation homes allow pets or animals, guidelines and costs vary per property. Type of pet, size and breeds may be limited. Remember to ask your host before booking, and study your agreement! Extra fees or charges could be applied to your agreement.
• Looking for unique amenities? Most rental search websites include search filters with amenity lists. Filtering by amenity will allow you to quickly find the best rental home.
• Proper accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for persons with a disability. Confirm all necessary amenities are available before booking.

Additional considerations:

• Be sure you get the host's contact number and arrival/departure procedures for your rental.
• Property managers are there to help! Don't be shy to ask questions during your stay.
• Lock your rental property while you are out! Don't let crooks spoil your vacation.
• At Check-in, document any damages to the rental property and immediately contact the host. Record all correspondence just in case a dispute arises.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like obnoxious visitors bothering your life at home. Employ the golden rule for best judgement. Happy residents may even recommend great beaches and scenic spots you would have never otherwise known!
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Local residents can often help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to spend a rainy day, have a great night out, or the best spots for BBQ?
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before you drive away, walk through the rental to make sure you've collected all of your things. Re-check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden items. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• After your trip, leave a review! Property managers rely on good ratings to drive more bookings. They'll be much obliged for your feedback. Alternatively, if something went awry, other vacationers 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 solve it.
