Tips to get the perfect Carolina Beach vacation property experience:

Sticking to your budget:

June, July, and August are high season in the Carolina Beach area. Book your rental home in the Spring or Fall to get the benefit of gorgeous weather while saving money and avoiding crowded roads, restaurants, and activities. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, or to reserve a beach front vacation rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during the Summer months. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Carolina Beach vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday near the ocean? Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with friends and family at the beach.
Reserve your vacation rental as early as possible. Rental schedules generally become available twelve months in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many families book their Summer vacations during Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years Eve gatherings. Book before these holidays for best selection.
Some owners offer discounts for veterans and active duty military. It's always a good idea to check with your host or property manager to see if special offers are available for your group.
Property management companies typically offer guests an option to buy vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which will generally cost between 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for days missed as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for program terms and fees.
Often, management companies and vacation rental houses supply Carolina Beach area visitors guide magazines which often include special offers, either offered directly by local businesses, or through a partnership between the rental management company and the business itself. You can also find Carolina Beach visitors guide magazine and coupon books at local shops and grocery stores.

Selecting the best rental home in the Carolina Beach area:

Select a group leader, select your trip dates, and choose a max budget.
Determine how many bedrooms and what type of bedroom configuration you need. Hobbs Realty - Waterfront living at The Minnow, a charming 2 bedroom with a day dock! has 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is usually accessible online. If not, email the property management company before you reserve your rental. Note that most properties list the max. guest capacity, which often includes pull out couches in living rooms.
Is your group looking for unique amenities? Most rental websites include amenity lists and search filters.
Proper accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for the less-mobile. Confirm all necessary amenities are available before reserving a rental
If your group is bringing pets, filter your search for a rental that allows animals. Make sure to ask for specifics on breed, weight, and type restrictions. Some property managers charge additional pet fees.

More tips for your visit:

Get the owner's phone number and arrival/departure procedures for your rental. We recommend storing the manager's information in your smartphone.
During arrival, make note of any issues with the property and immediately alert the property manager. Record all correspondence in case a dispute arises.
Ask questions. You may want instructions for a garage door opener, elevator or appliance. Contact your owner. They are there to help! A brief phone call can prevent quite a few difficulties.
Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking policies can make a stay more pleasurable. You will enhance your chance to make some new local friends, and resident neighbors can be an incredible source for finding the best local attractions.
Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Locals can usually help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to enjoy a steak with a view, have a great night out, or the best spots for shopping?
Protect the rental owner (and your stuff!) by locking and securing the home when you are away, just like you would back home.
Don't leave anything behind! Just before you drive away, take a walk through the rental property to reconfirm you've collected all personal items. Remember to check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden treasure. Clean out the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
Document the condition of the property at check-out. We recommend taking a video during your final walk-through.
Did your group have a excellent time? Many rental management companies make it easy for customers to provide reviews. If your property and/or host was great, 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 as described, you'll want to make it a point as part of your feedback.
