Vacation rental booking tips and tricks:

When to reserve a Carolina Beach rental & When to go:

• Reserve your vacation home as early as possible. Rental schedules generally open twelve months in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many groups book their Summer vacation rentals during Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years Eve get-togethers. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Summertime is the most expensive season in Oak Island. Book your vacation in the Fall or Spring to enjoy beautiful weather while saving money and avoiding crowded roads, restaurants, and activities. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, or to book an oceanfront vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during the Summer.
• Some owners offer discounts for veterans and active duty military. Remember to ask your host or property manager if special offers are available for your group before you book.
• Property managers frequently offer their guests an option to obtain trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which normally costs 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed days as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel stay or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance might be a a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for program terms and fees.
• Look for your local Carolina Beach area magazine when you check-in. If your rental home doesn't have one, you can find them at local shops and fuel stations. In addition to great local information, visitor guide magazines have deals for nearby restaurants, attractions, and tours.

Finding the best rental in the Carolina Beach area:

• Begin by selecting your the best vacation week and a maximum budget.
• Note the number beds and the configuration your group requires. Carefree Coastal Getaway - Walk to Long Beach has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is usually available on booking pages. Otherwise, call the property manager before reserving the vacation property. Note that most property listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which often includes sofa beds.
• Remember to include your furry companions! Many vacation homes allow animals, but guidelines and restrictions apply. Type of pet, size and breeds may be limited. Make sure to ask before booking, and study your rental agreement! Extra fees or charges applied to your contract.
• Does your group require specific amenities? Most rental search websites include search filters with amenity lists. Use these filters to your advantage to find the perfect rental home.
• Suitable accessibility can make or break a vacation for guests that require the use of a wheelchair. .

Tips for a wonderful stay:

• Store the host's contact information in your smartphone.
• Property managers are there to help! Don't be shy to ask questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Lock your vacation home while you're away. Protect your property!
• Upon check-in, record any damages to the property and immediately alert the host. Record all coorespondence.
• Respecting quiet hours and parking regulations can make a stay more pleasurable. You will enhance your chance to make local friends, and resident neighbors are an incredible source for finding the best local beaches and hangouts.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Residents can typically help. Who better to ask where to find the fresh catch of the day, have a great night out, or the best spots for fine dining?
• Don't leave anything behind! Before you drive away, take a walk through the rental property to make sure you've collected everything. Re-check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden treasure. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Walk through the rental a final time and keep an eye out for damage. We suggest inspecting the property with the host whenever you can. If the property manager is not available, ensure that you take photos of the rental to record its condition.
• Did your group have a great time? Many rental home management companies make it easy for guests to provide feedback. If your rental and/or property manager was fantastic, they would love to hear it. If anything was wrong and they failed to address it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make it a point as part of your comments.
