Tips and Tricks for getting the perfect Wilmington, NC rental experience:

Finding the best rental value:

• To find the best value, try shifting your family's Wilmington, NC vacation dates to the Spring or Fall shoulder seasons. May, September, and even October offer pleasant temperatures, fewer crowds, and greatly reduced traffic. Many vacationers use this strategy to find larger homes within budget, or to reserve an oceanfront rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during the Summer months. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the 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 loved ones at the beach.
• Book your rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules generally become available 12 months in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many groups reserve their Summer vacations during Winter holiday get-togethers. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Some hosts offer discounts for veterans. Check with your property manager to see if discounts are available for your group.
• Property management companies usually offer their guests an option to buy trip insurance. Trip insurance, which commonly 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 medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as ensuing additional evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel stay or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for details.
• Find a copy of your local Wilmington, NC area magazine upon arrival. If your rental doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local shops and visitor centers. In addition to great local articles, visitors guides have offers and deals for nearby accommodations, tours and attractions.

Make a plan and pick the rightrental home:

• First, have your family agree to a vacation week and a maximum budget.
• Note the number bedrooms and what type of bedroom configuration your family requires. Sunset Beach island home - canal front! Close to beach! has 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms.
• Specific information about bedrooms and bed types is usually accessible online. If they are not listed, reach out to the property management company before reserving your rental. Note that most listings specify the max. guest capacity, which often includes sofa beds in living rooms.
• Looking for specific amenities? Most websites include search filters for amenities.
• Suitable accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for guests that require the use of a wheelchair. Confirm all necessary amenities are included before reserving a rental.
