Tricks and tips for getting the best vacation property experience:

Get the best value:

• June, July, and August are the most expensive months in coastal NC. To get the best value, shift your group's vacation to the Spring or Fall seasons. May, September, and even October offer warm temperatures, , and reduced traffic.
• Book your rental as early as possible. Rental schedules often become available twelve months in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many families reserve their Summer rental homes during Winter holiday get-togethers. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Hosts sometimes offer special rates for active duty military and veterans. Check with your property manager to see if special offers are available for your group before you book.
• Property management companies often offer renters an option to purchase trip insurance. Trip insurance, which will generally cost 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for 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 or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance might be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for details.
• Many management companies and vacation rental houses supply Carolina Beach area visitor guides which will include coupons, either offered directly by local companies, or through a partnership between the property management company and the business itself. You can also find Carolina Beach visitors guide and coupon books at local shops and grocery stores.

Make a plan and pick your prefect Carolina Beach rental:

• Select a group leader, choose your trip dates, and choose a maximum budget.
• Determine how many beds and the bed configuration your family needs. Heart of Downtown- pet-friendly ILM retreat! has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Specific information regarding bedrooms and bed counts & types is regularly accessible online. If you don't see them listed, email the property manager before booking the rental. Note that most properties list the max. guest capacity, which frequently includes pull-out couches and bunk beds.
• Visiting for a single event? If so, use a map search to browse nearby rentals.
• Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for those with limited mobility. .
• Some rentals allow pets, and some do not. Allowable types of family pet, size and breeds may be restricted, and additional fees may apply. Ask your host about pets before booking.

Advice for a wonderful stay:

• Add the property manager's phone number to your smartphone. Take a copy of arrival/departure procedures.
• During check-in, note any damages to the rental property and immediately alert the host. Record all coorespondence.
• Hosts are available to help! Feel free to ask questions during your stay.
• Respecting quiet hours and parking rules can make a stay more pleasurable. Be a good neighbor. You'll enhance your chance to make local friends, and resident neighbors are 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 find the fresh catch of the day, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for BBQ?
• Keep your rental home locked while you're away! Don't let crooks ruin your holiday.
• Re-check the vacation property to confirm that you've packed all of your belongings on check-out day. Check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden belongings. Clean the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Document the condition of the property at check-out. We recommend taking a video during your final walk-through.
• Did you have a great stay? Many rental websites make it easy for clients to provide reviews. If your rental and/or property manager was fantastic, they will likely appreciate your kind words. If anything was defective and they failed to correct it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make it a point as part of your review.
