Finding the best Carolina Beach vacation rental experience:

When to book & When to go:

• Book your vacation rental as early as possible. Rental schedules often open twelve months in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many families reserve their Summer vacation rentals during Winter holiday gatherings. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• To find the best value, shift your trip dates to the Spring or Fall shoulder seasons. May, September, and even October offer warm weather, , and reduced traffic. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, or to reserve a beach front rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during the Summer months.
• Some hosts offer rate reductions for active duty military and veterans. Make sure to check with your property manager to see if discounts are available for your group before you book.
• Management companies and individual rental owners typically offer customers an option to obtain vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which usually will cost you anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed vacation time as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for specifics.
• Look for your local visitors guide 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 information, travel guides contain deals for local tours, shops, and attractions.

Selecting the best vacation home in Carolina Beach:

• Choose dates and spending budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and what type of bedroom configuration your family needs. New! Pool! Sleeps 14, Sol de Mar Oceanfront, huge views, modern, duplex unit A has 4 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms.
• Precise information about bedrooms and bed counts is almost always available online. If not, email or call the property owner before you reserve your rental. Remember that most properties list maximum guest capacity, which usually includes sofa beds.
• Some rentals allow pets, and some don't. Allowable types of dog or cat, size and breeds may be restricted, and additional costs may apply. Ask the property manager about pet restrictions before booking.
• Are you visiting for a specific event? If so, use a map search to browse nearby rentals.
• Proper accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for guests with disabilities. Confirm all required amenities are available before booking.

Some things to know before you go:

• Get the host's phone number and check in/check out procedures for your rental property.
• Property managers are great sources of help! Feel free to ask any questions during your stay.
• Lock your rental while you are out. Protect the owner's property and your things!
• During arrival, make note of any damages to the rental property and immediately contact the property manager. Record all correspondence just in case a dispute arises.
• Be respectful of your neighbors. Often, nearby homes are filled by local residents. Respecting late-night noise limits and parking regulations is the right thing to do.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Neighbors can typically help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to go for the best drinks, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fine dining?
• Re-check every room of the vacation property to make sure that you've packed all of your family's items at check-out. Remember to check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden items. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Go through the rental a final time and look for damages to contents or the property itself. We suggest walking through with the host whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the property manager isn't available, ensure that you take video of the property to record its condition at check-out.
• After your trip, leave a review! Hosts rely on excellent ratings to compel new reservations. They'll be thankful for your review. Alternatively, if something went awry, other vacationers will will be grateful for your experience and help them have the best future vacation. Be fair with your review. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the host had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded quickly to solve it.
