Finding the best rental experience:

Cost saving strategies:

• June, July, and August are the most expensive months along the coast of NC. To book the best vacation home within your budget, we suggest reserving in the Spring or Fall. You'll enjoy lower rates, better selection, warm weather and the absence of giant crowds at Carolina Beach restaurants, beaches, and activities. Many vacationers use this method to find larger homes within budget, or to book an oceanfront rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during June, July, and August. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Carolina Beach vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation near the ocean? Thanksgiving and Christmas are great times to gather with friends and family at the beach.
• Book your rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules usually open twelve months in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many groups reserve their Summer vacation rentals during holiday gatherings. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Some hosts offer rate reductions for active duty military and veterans. Ask your property manager if special discounts are available for your group.
• Property managers usually offer renters an option to add trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which will generally cost anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for days missed as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance can be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for program terms and fees.
• Often, management companies supply Carolina Beach area visitors guide magazines that include coupons, either offered directly by local companies, or through a relationship between the rental management company and the business itself. You can also find visitors guide and coupon books at local shops and grocery stores.

Narrow your Search:

• Start by having your group select date ranges and a maximum budget.
• Determine how many beds and the configuration you need. Atlantic Coast Dome Home Across from Sound w\/ View has 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Specific details about bedrooms and bed counts is normally accessible online. Otherwise, contact the property manager before reserving the vacation home. Note that most property listings specify the max. guest capacity, which often includes sofa beds.
• Visiting for a specific event? Use a map search to browse nearby properties.
• Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for persons with disabilities. Remember to confirm all required amenities are included before booking
• Some rental properties allow pets, but others do not. Allowable types of dog or cat, size and breeds may be restricted, and additional charges may apply. Ask the owner about pets before booking.

More considerations:

• Be sure you get the owner's phone number and entry/exit procedures for your rental.
• To make sure that no damages are linked to your visit, record any problem areas during arrival. Get in touch with the rental manager immediately to relay any damages. If there is a dispute about who is responsible, having the recorded issues and contact attempts will be helpful.
• Property managers are there to help! Don't be shy to ask questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Respect the neighborhood. Frequently, surrounding homes are filled by permanent residents. Respecting quiet hours and parking policies is the right thing to do.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Locals can often help. Who better to ask where to spend a rainy day, have a great night out, or the best spots for fine dining?
• Lock your rental home while you are away. Keep your property safe!
• Double-check every room of the vacation property to make sure that you've packed all belongings at check-out. Re-check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden treasure. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Walk through the rental one final time and scan for any damage. We recommend inspecting the property with the property manager whenever possible. If the manager is not available, ensure that you take video of the rental to record its condition.
• Did you have a wonderful stay? Many rental home management companies make it easy for customers to provide comments. If your property and/or property manager was terrific, they would love to hear it. If anything was defective and they failed to fix it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make a note as part of your review.
