Tricks and tips to get the very best vacation home experience:

Getting the most from your vacation rental budget:

Book your vacation home as soon as possible. Rental schedules often open a year in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many families reserve their Summer vacation rentals during holiday gatherings. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
Summer months are high season in Carolina Beach. Booking a rental in the Fall or Spring is our best tip for saving money on your vacation home. Rental rates are lower, and you'll find a better selection of acceptable homes. Many vacationers use this strategy to find larger homes within budget, or to book 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 on the coast? Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with loved ones at the beach.
Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property manager if your vacationing group qualifies for a special promotion or discount.
Property management companies typically offer customers an option to add vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which commonly will cost 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any days missed as a result of medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for more information.
Look for your local Carolina Beach visitors guide magazine upon arrival. If your rental doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local grocery stores and visitor centers. In addition to great local articles, travel guides have money saving offers on local accommodations, tours and attractions.

Planning and choosing the bestrental:

Start by selecting the best vacation week and a budget.
Decide how many beds and what type of bedroom configuration your family requires. Happy as a Clam Contemporary Coastal Home in Carolina Beach! has 4 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our rentals search.
Specific information about bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is regularly accessible on booking pages. If you don't see them listed, contact the host before booking the home. Note that most properties list maximum guest capacity, which often includes pull-out couches.
If your group is vacationing with pets, you'll need to find a rental that allows animals. Request specifics on breed, weight, and type requirements. Usually, property managers charge pet deposits and fees.
Are you visiting for a single attraction or event? If so, use a map search to browse nearby rentals.
Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for guests with disabilities. .

More tips for your stay:

Review arrival and departure procedures before traveling. Add a note with the instructions to your smartphone, and take a printed copy.
Ask questions. You may want instructions for a hot tub, elevator or WIFI setup. Contact your host. They are there to help! A brief phone call can prevent many problems.
Lock your rental property while you're out! Don't let thieves ruin your vacation.
To make sure no damages are attributed to your stay, record any problem areas during arrival. Call the property manager right away to record any issues. If there is a dispute, having the recorded problems and contact attempts will be helpful.
Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like loud vacationers bothering your peaceful home life. Apply the golden rule for common sense. If they like you, locals might even recommend great beaches and places you would've not otherwise known!
Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Residents can frequently help. Who better to ask where to find the fresh catch of the day, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fishing?
Don't leave anything behind! Just before you drive away, take a walk through the rental to make sure you've collected all of your things. Make sure to check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden treasure. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
Inspect the property one final time and scan for any damage. We advise inspecting the property with the host whenever you can. If the manager isn't available, take photos and video of the property to record its condition at check-out.
Did your family have a great stay? Most rental management companies make it easy for guests to provide reviews. If your rental and/or property manager was fantastic, they would love to hear it. If anything was wrong and they failed to fix it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make it a point as part of your review.
