Tips and Tricks to get the optimal vacation rental experience:

When to visit Carolina Beach & When to reserve a Carolina Beach rental home:

Summer is the most expensive season in Carolina Beach. To find the most suitable rental for your budget, we highly recommend booking in Fall or Spring. You'll enjoy lower rental rates, better selection, warm weather and the absence of giant crowds at the beach and popular attractions. Many vacationers use this method to find larger homes within budget, or to reserve a beach front vacation rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during the Summer.
The earlier your group can book, the better your selection will be. The best vacation rentals are booked very early. Booking your vacation rental six - twelve months before your travel dates is recommended. Christmas, Thanksgiving and New Years Eve are excellent times to search for and book your rental.
Owners sometimes offer promotional rates for active duty military and veterans. Make sure to check with your host or property manager to see if special offers are available for your group before you book.
Management companies and individual rental owners usually offer their guests an option to add trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which normally costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed vacation time as a result of medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance might be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for specifics.
Look for your local Carolina Beach area magazine upon checking in. If your rental doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers. In addition to great information, visitors guide magazines contain deals for local tours and attractions.

Narrow your rental Search:

Select a group leader, select your vacation dates, and select a max budget.
Determine how many beds and the bed configuration you need. New! Condo with Dock + Pool has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed types is almost always accessible online. If not, email or call the host before you reserve the rental. Remember that most listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which usually includes sofa beds. You'll need to determine what bed configuration is optimal for your vacation group.
Is your group looking for particular amenities? Most rental websites include search filters with amenity lists. Filtering by amenity will allow you to quickly find your ideal rental.
Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for persons with a disability. Make certain to inquire about specialized equipment and wheel chair accessibility.
If your family is traveling with pets, you'll need to find a pet-friendly vacation rental. Request information on breed, weight, and type requirements. Be aware that some property managers charge additional pet fees.

Considerations for your stay:

Store the owner's information in your smartphone and wallet.
Note any issues with the property during check in, and immediately send them to the property manager. We specifically recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain built-in time stamps that can be valuable if a dispute arises.
Hosts are great sources of help! Feel free to ask questions before, during, or after your stay.
Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like troublesome vacationers bothering your peaceful home. Apply the golden rule for common sense. If they like you, locals might even recommend great local food and attractions you would have never otherwise known about!
Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Neighbors can frequently help. 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 bird watching?
Ensure you protect the owner (and your stuff!) by locking and securing the home while you are out, just like you would back home.
Don't leave anything behind! Before you drive away, walk through the property to reconfirm you've collected all personal items. Check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden belongings. Clean out the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
Go through the rental a final time and keep an eye out for any damage. We suggest inspecting the property with the property manager whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the property manager isn't available, ensure that you take photos and video of the rental to record its condition at check-out.
Remember to leave feedback! Hosts rely on excellent feedback to drive future reservations. They'll be grateful for your review. Alternatively, if something wasn't right, other vacationing families will appreciate that you share your feedback and help them have the best future vacation. Please be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the host could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded reasonably to remedy it.
