Our top Holden Beach rental home tips and tricks:

Sticking to a budget:

• Booking your vacation home in Fall or Spring months is our best tip for saving 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 on the coast? Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with friends and family at your favorite beach.
• Reserve your rental as early 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.
• Some hosts offer discounts for veterans. Remember to ask your property manager if special offers are available for your family.
• Property management companies typically offer customers an option to buy vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which usually costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed days as a result of medical-related issues or weather, as well as ensuing additional evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for details.
• Look for your local Wilmington, NC area magazine when you arrive at the rental property. If your rental property doesn't have one, you can find them at local grocery stores and visitor centers. In addition to great local articles, travel guides have discounts for local accommodations, tours and attractions.

Choosing and booking your Wilmington, NC rental:

• To start, have your group choose date ranges and a maximum budget.
• Decide how many bedrooms and the configuration your group requires. This lovely four-bedroom oceanfront home, “Holden Sunshine,” has amazing views of the Atlantic! has 4 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms.
• Specific details about bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is regularly available on booking websites. If they are not listed, email the host before you book the vacation property. Remember that most property listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which usually includes sofa beds.
• If there's a specific Wilmington, NC destination you are enamored with, keep an eye out for homes that are either nearby, or those that cater to your needs.
• Suitable accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for guests that require the use of a wheelchair. Confirm all required amenities are available and included before reserving a rental
• If your family is traveling with pets, filter your search for a pet-friendly rental. Get details on breed, weight, and type restrictions. Usually, hosts charge pet deposits and fees.

Have a wonderful stay:

• Review check in & check out procedures before leaving home. Save the directions to your smartphone, and take a printed backup.
• To make certain damages aren't linked to your family's stay, inspect the property for any problem areas when you arrive. Speak to the host right away to record any pre-existing damages. If there is a dispute, having a record of problems and contact attempts will be very helpful.
• Hosts are there to help! Feel free to ask questions during your stay.
• Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking policies can make a stay more pleasurable. Be a good neighbor. You will magnify your chance to make local friends, and resident neighbors are usually a great resource to find the best local beaches.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Neighbors can often help. Who better to ask where to find the best seashells, have a great night out, or the best spots for crabbing?
• Lock your rental home while you are away. Protect your property!
• Double-check every room of the rental property to confirm that you've packed all of your family's items at check-out. Check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden treasure. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Walk through the rental a final time and scan for any damage. We advise walking through with the host whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the manager is not available, remember to take video of the rental to record its condition.
• Leave feedback! Property managers rely on excellent reviews to drive future reservations. They'll be much obliged for your feedback. Alternatively, if something wasn't right, other vacationers will appreciate that you share your experience find their best vacation rental. Remember to be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the owner could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded reasonably to remedy it.
