Booking the best Wilmington, NC rental home experience:

Sticking to your budget:

• Summertime is high season in the Wilmington, NC area. To get the best value, shift your vacation dates to the Spring or Fall shoulder seasons. May, September, and even October offer excellent temperatures, , and greatly reduced traffic.
• The earlier your group can book a rental home, the easier your search will be. The best rental properties are reserved early. Reserving your vacation rental up to twelve months before your vacation dates is recommended. Holiday gatherings are excellent times to plan and reserve your rental property.
• Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective host whether your family qualifies for a special promotion or discount.
• Property management companies usually offer renters an option to obtain trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which commonly will cost you between 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed trip time as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel stay or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance might be a a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for specifics.
• Look for your local visitors guide upon checking in. If your rental home doesn't have one, you can find them at local shops and visitor centers. In addition to great articles, visitors guide magazines have deals for local accommodations, tours and attractions.

Filter your search:

• Select your vacation dates and spending budget.
• Note the number bedrooms and the configuration your group requires. Saltwater Pool Available Starting April 1st, Wonderful Island Retreat, 6 Seat Golf Cart Included has 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our Wilmington, NC rental home search.
• Specific details about bedrooms and bed types is commonly available on booking websites. If not, email or call the host before you reserve your rental. Remember that most listings specify the max. guest capacity, which usually includes sofa beds and bunks.
• Are you visiting for a single event or attraction? If so, use a map search to locate nearby properties.
• Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for guests with disabilities. .
• If your group is vacationing with pets, you'll need to book a pet-friendly vacation rental. Request details on breed, size, and type restrictions. Note that some property managers charge pet deposits and fees.

Considerations for your stay:

• Get the property manager's phone number and check in/check out procedures for your rental property. We recommend storing the host's contact information in your smartphone.
• To make sure that no damages are linked to your family's visit, inspect the property for any problem areas during check in. Make contact with the host right away to record your findings. If there is a dispute about who is responsible, having a record of problems and contact attempts will be very helpful.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a hot tub, stereo or appliance. Contact your host. They are there to help! A brief telephone call can prevent lots of issues.
• Respect the neighborhood. Often times, surrounding homes are occupied by local residents. Respecting noise limits and parking policies can make a stay significantly more pleasurable.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Residents can typically point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to rent beach equipment, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fishing?
• Protect the rental owner (and your stuff!) by locking and securing the home when you are gone, just like you would at home.
• Just prior to departing, complete a final walk-through to make sure you didn't forget anything. Re-check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden items. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Inspect the property a final time and keep an eye out for damages to contents or the property itself. We suggest inspecting the property with the property manager whenever you can. If the manager isn't available, take video of the rental to record its condition at check-out.
• Leave a review! Property owners rely on great ratings to compel more reservations. They'll be thankful for your feedback. Alternatively, if something went wrong, other families will be thankful you shared your review and help them have the best future vacation. Remember to be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the owner had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded expeditiously to fix it.
