Tips and Tricks to get the perfect Carolina Beach vacation home experience:

When to book & When to go:

• The sooner your group can book a vacation home, the better your selection will be. The best vacation rentals are reserved very early. Booking your vacation rental six to twelve months before your vacation dates is recommended. Winter holidays are excellent times to plan and book your rental.
• Summertime is the most expensive season in coastal NC. Book your Carolina Beach rental property in Fall or Spring to enjoy gorgeous weather while saving money and avoiding crowded roads, restaurants, and activities. Many vacationers use this method to find larger homes within budget, or to reserve a beach front vacation rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during the Summer. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Carolina Beach vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation near the ocean? Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with loved ones at the beach.
• Some property managers offer promotional rates for veterans and active duty military. Remember to ask your host or property manager if special discounts are available for your family before you book.
• Management companies and individual rental owners typically offer guests an option to buy trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which normally costs 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any days missed as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for details.
• Many property management companies and vacation rental houses supply Carolina Beach area travel guide magazines which will include special deals, either offered directly by local companies, or by way of a partnership between the rental management company and the business itself. You can also find Carolina Beach area magazine and coupon books at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers.

Use filters to narrow your search:

• Start by choosing your a vacation week and a max budget.
• Decide how many beds and what type of bedroom configuration your group needs. Custom, prestigious Southern Living Home on BHI! has 4 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is usually available online. If you don't see them listed, call the host before you book your home. Remember that most listings specify the max. guest capacity, which usually includes sofa beds in living rooms. You will need to determine what configuration is right for your vacation.
• If your family is traveling with pets, you'll need to search for a pet-friendly property. Request specifics on breed, weight, and type restrictions. Usually, property owners require additional pet deposits and fees.
• Are you visiting for a single event? If so, use a map search to find nearby properties.
• Proper accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for guests that require the use of a wheelchair. Make certain to ask about specialized equipment and wheel chair accessibility.

More considerations for your visit:

• We recommend storing the owner's contact information in your smartphone and wallet.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a hot tub, elevator or coffee maker. Contact your host. They are there to help! A brief text message prevents a lot of issues.
• Protect the rental owner (and your things!) by locking and securing the home when you are away, just like you would back home.
• Upon arrival, make note of any damages to the rental property and immediately alert the host. Keep records of all coorespondence.
• Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking regulations can make a stay more pleasurable. You'll enhance your chance to make local friends, and resident neighbors are often an incredible source for finding the best local scenic spots.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Neighbors can usually help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to get the best seafood, have a great night out, or the best spots for fishing?
• Re-check every room of the vacation property to make sure that you've packed all personal items at departure. Check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden belongings. Clean the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• After your trip, leave a review! Property managers rely on good ratings to inspire future reservations. They'll be much obliged for your review. Alternatively, if something wasn't as described, other vacationers will be thankful you shared your feedback find their best vacation rental. Please be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the property manager had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded expeditiously to fix it.
