THE BEACH:
We may be biased, but we believe it is one of the nicest beaches on the east coast with great sand. The beach is wide and not as busy as most. The Carolina Beach Boardwalk (voted 3rd best boardwalk in the country by USA Today in 2016) is fast walk if you are looking for eateries, bars, and amusement. However, if you would like a more casual low-key vibe, just walk one block to your own stretch of heaven.

• Watch fireworks, movies, and live music on the Boardwalk all summer long
• Visit the Fort Fisher Aquarium
• Sample beers and play Frisbee golf at the island's own microbrewery
• Charter a fishing boat

• Hike the Carolina Beach State Park
• Rent a 4x4 and have a fire on the beach at Freeman Park
• Open water recreation: Kayaks and Stand-up Paddleboards

Our top Rental home booking tips and tricks:

Getting the best rental value:

• The sooner you can reserve a vacation rental, the easier your search will be. The best rental properties are reserved early. Booking your vacation property up to 12 months before your vacation dates is recommended. Holidays such as Christmas and Thanksgiving are excellent times to plan and reserve your rental.
• To get the best rental for your budget, we suggest reserving in the Fall or Spring. You'll benefit from lower rental rates, better selection, gorgeous weather and the absence of giant crowds at popular Wilmington, NC attractions and restaurants. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter 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.
• Hosts sometimes offer discounts or promotional rates for active duty military and veterans. Remember to ask your host or property manager if special offers are available for your group.
• Property managers often offer renters an option to buy vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which normally will cost you anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed time as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for additional information.
• Look for your local Wilmington, NC area magazine upon checking in. 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 contain discounts for nearby accommodations, tours and attractions.

Use filters to narrow your search:

• Begin by selecting your the best vacation week and a spending budget.
• Note the number bedrooms and the configuration your family requires. YOUR CAROLINA BEACH VACATION!!! has 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms.
• Precise information about bedrooms and bed counts is normally accessible online. If not, reach out to the property owner before you reserve the vacation property. Note that most property listings specify maximum guest capacity, which oftentimes includes pull-out couches. You'll need to establish what configuration is suitable for your vacation.
• If your group is bringing pets, you must reserve a pet-friendly property. Ask for information on breed, size, and type requirements. Some property owners charge pet deposits and fees.
• Does your family require unique amenities? Most rental search websites include search filters with amenity lists. Use these to your advantage to find the perfect rental home.
• Appropriate accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for those with limited mobility. Confirm all required amenities are available and included before booking.

Considerations for your stay:

• Get the owner's phone number and arrival/departure procedures for your rental property.
• Property managers are available to help! Feel free to ask questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Keep your rental home locked while you're gone! Don't let burglars spoil your trip.
• To ensure that no damages are attributed to your family's visit, record any problem areas when you arrive. E-mail the rental manager right away to record any pre-existing damages. If there is a dispute about who is responsible, having the recorded issues and contact attempts will be useful.
• Don't forget to respect your neighbors. Often, surrounding homes are filled by permanent residents. Respecting late-night noise limits and parking regulations reduces conflict and allows everyone to enjoy their day.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Residents can usually help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to find the best seashells, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fishing?
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before departing, walk through the rental property to reconfirm you've collected everything. Remember to check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden items. Clean out the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Go through the property a final time and look for any damage. We recommend inspecting the property with the property manager whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the property manager isn't available, take photos of the rental to record its condition at check-out.
• Leave a review! Property owners rely on good ratings to propel future bookings. They'll be thankful for your review. Alternatively, if something went awry, other vacationing families will appreciate that you share your experience find their best vacation home. Remember to be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the host had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded expeditiously to solve it.
