Money saving strategies:

• In the Carolina Beach area, The earlier you can book a vacation rental, the better your selection will be. The most desirable vacation homes are reserved early. Booking your rental home up to twelve months before your travel dates is recommended. Christmas, Thanksgiving and New Years Eve are excellent times to plan and reserve your rental property.
• Booking your Carolina Beach vacation home in Fall or Spring is a great way to save on your rental home. Rental rates are lower, and you'll find a better selection of suitable properties.
• Some owners offer discounts for veterans. Make sure to check with your property manager to see if special discounts are available for your group.
• Management companies and individual rental owners usually offer renters an option to purchase trip insurance. Trip insurance, which costs between 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed vacation time as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional evacuation costs or charges, such as an unanticipated hotel or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for additional information.
