Strategies for getting the perfect vacation home experience:

How to get the best rental home value:

• In the Carolina Beach area, The sooner your group can reserve a home, the better your selection will be. The most desirable vacation homes are reserved early. Reserving your vacation rental up to 12 months before your vacation dates is recommended. Winter holidays are excellent times to plan and book your vacation rental.
• Summer months are high season in the Carolina Beach area. To book the most suitable vacation home within budget, we suggest reserving in Fall or Spring months. You'll benefit from lower rental rates, better selection, gorgeous weather and the absence of large crowds at popular Carolina Beach attractions and restaurants. Many vacationers use this method to find larger homes within budget, or to book a beach front vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during June, July, and August.
• Some hosts and property managers offer promotional rates for active duty military and veterans. Remember to ask your property manager if special discounts are available for your family before you book.
• Property managers usually offer customers an option to purchase trip insurance. Trip insurance, which usually costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any days missed as a result of medical-related issues 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 visitors guide upon arrival. If your rental home doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local shops and visitor centers. In addition to great articles, visitor guide magazines have deals for nearby tours and attractions.

Choosing and booking the best Carolina Beach rental home:

• Choose your vacation week and spending budget.
• Note the number bedrooms and the configuration your family requires. Ocean views from the large deck upstairs; screened in porch and private crofter has 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is generally accessible online. If they are not listed, reach out to the property management company before booking the property. Remember that most properties list maximum guest capacity, which oftentimes includes sofa beds in living rooms.
• If your family is vacationing with pets, filter your search for a property that allows animals. Make sure to ask for details on breed, weight, and type restrictions. Often, property owners charge additional pet fees.
• Are you visiting for a single attraction? Use a map search to browse nearby rentals.
• Suitable accessibility can make or break a vacation for persons with a disability. .

Additional considerations:

• Take a copy of the owner's contact number and check in/check out procedures for your rental home.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a hot tub, A/V setup or WIFI setup. Contact your owner. They are there to help! A brief call can prevent quite a few problems.
• Ensure you protect the property owner (and your things!) by locking the rental when you are gone, just like you would back home.
• Make a record of any issues with the property upon arrival, and immediately e-mail them to the owner. We especially recommend e-mails and text messages, as they usually contain time stamps that are valuable if damages are attributed to your stay.
• Be respectful. Frequently, nearby homes are occupied by local residents. Respecting late-night noise limits and parking policies reduces conflict and allows everyone to enjoy their day.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Local residents can usually help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to book the best tours, have a great night out, or the best spots for fine dining?
• Double-check every room of the rental property to make sure that you've packed all of your belongings on check-out day. Make sure to check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden treasure. Clean out the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Go through the rental a final time and keep an eye out for damages to contents or the property itself. We suggest inspecting the property with the property manager whenever possible. If the manager isn't available, take photos of the rental to record its condition.
• Remember to leave feedback! Property owners rely on great feedback to inspire new reservations. They'll be much obliged for your review. Alternatively, if something wasn't right, other families will will be grateful for your feedback find their best vacation rental. Remember to be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the manager had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded expeditiously to fix it.
