Tricks and tips for getting the best vacation rental experience:

Getting the most from your vacation rental budget:

• Book your vacation rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules often open 12 months in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many families book their Summer rental homes during Christmas and Thanksgiving get-togethers. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• To get the best value, consider shifting your vacation dates to the Spring or Fall seasons. May, September, and even October offer pleasant weather, , and greatly reduced traffic. Many vacationers use this strategy to reserve larger homes, or to book a beach front rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during the Summer. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Carolina Beach vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation on the coast? Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with family and friends at the beach.
• Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective host whether your group qualifies for a price reduction or discount.
• Property management companies typically offer their guests an option to obtain vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which commonly will cost you between 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed days as a result of medical-related issues or weather, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance might be a a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for details.
• Look for your local Carolina Beach area magazine when you check-in. If your rental property doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local grocery stores and visitor centers. In addition to great articles, travel guides contain money saving offers on nearby accommodations, tours and attractions.

Choosing and booking the best Carolina Beach vacation home:

• Select a group leader, select your trip dates, and choose a maximum budget.
• Determine how many beds and the bed configuration your group needs. Luxe Wilmington Home: 2 Mi to Historic Downtown has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our Carolina Beach rentals search.
• Precise details about bedrooms and bed types is often available on booking pages. If not, contact the property management company before you reserve the rental. Remember that most properties list maximum guest capacity, which oftentimes includes sofa beds.
• Some rental properties allow pets, but others don't. Allowable types of family pet, size and breeds may be restricted, and added charges may apply. Ask the property manager about pets before booking.
• Are you visiting for a specific event or attraction? Use a map search to browse nearby rentals.
• Proper accessibility can make or break a vacation for guests with disabilities. Remember to confirm all required amenities are available and included before booking

Have a wonderful stay:

• Review check in & check out procedures before traveling. Take a printed copy, and add a note with the directions to your smartphone.
• Property managers are available to help! Feel free to ask questions during your stay.
• Protect the rental owner (and your things!) by locking the property while you are out, just like you would at home.
• To make sure that damages aren't linked to your family's stay, inspect the property for any problem areas upon your arrival. Make contact with the property manager right away to document any issues. If there is a dispute about who is responsible, having the recorded problems and contact attempts will be useful.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like disagreeable vacationers bothering your peaceful neighborhood. Practice the golden rule for common sense. Happy residents may even recommend great restaurants and places you would've not otherwise known!
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Locals can often help. Who better to ask where to spend a rainy day, have a great night out, or the best spots for shopping?
• Re-check every room of the rental property to make sure that you've packed everything at check-out. Remember to check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden treasure. Clean the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Please make sure to walk through the rental one final time and scan for damages to contents or the property itself. We advise walking through with the property manager whenever possible. If the property manager is not available, take photographs of the property to record its condition.
• Did your group have a excellent vacation? Many rental managers make it easy for guests to provide reviews. If your rental property and/or property management company was great, they always love to hear your praise. If anything was wrong and they failed to correct it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make a note as part of your comments.
