A shared half bathroom with a appealing clawfoot tub adds to the vintage appeal.

Though the bungalow’s cross breeze keeps it wonderfully cozy, modern amenities like central heat and air, as well as ceiling fans throughout, ensure year-round comfort. However, the home is winterized and unavailable for rent from December through April.

Tricks and tips to get the best Carolina Beach vacation rental experience:

How to get the best value:

• June, July, and August are the most expensive months in the Carolina Beach area. To find the best value, consider changing your family's Carolina Beach vacation dates to the Spring or Fall months. May, September, and even October offer excellent weather, , and reduced traffic.
• In the Carolina Beach area, The sooner your group can reserve a home, the easier your search will be. The most desirable rental properties are booked very early. Reserving your rental property 6-12 months before your vacation is recommended. Holidays such as Christmas and Thanksgiving are excellent times to search for and book your rental property.
• Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective vacation rental company or host if your group qualifies for a price reduction or discount.
• Booking websites often offer customers an option to add trip insurance. Trip insurance, which generally will cost you anywhere between 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed days as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance might be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for program terms and fees.
• Many rental management companies supply Carolina Beach area visitors guide magazines that include coupons, either offered directly by local companies, or through a partnership between the management company and the business itself. You can also find Carolina Beach visitors guide and coupon books at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers.

Planning and picking your Carolina Beach rental:

• Start by selecting your potential vacation weeks and a max budget.
• Note the number beds and what type of bedroom configuration your family needs. Traditional sound front cottage w historic charm! has 4 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Precise information about bedrooms and bed counts is regularly available on booking websites. If you don't see them listed, call the property manager before you reserve the property. Note that most property listings specify maximum guest capacity, which usually includes pull out couches in living rooms. You will need to work out which bed configuration is suitable for your 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 the best rental.
• Suitable accessibility can make or break a vacation for persons with a disability. Confirm all necessary amenities are available before booking
• Some properties allow pets, but some don't. Acceptable types of family pet, weight and breeds may be restricted, and added fees may apply. Ask the owner about pets before booking.

Additional considerations:

• Add the owner's contact info to your smartphone. Print and take a copy of arrival/departure procedures.
• Upon arrival, record any damages to the property and immediately alert the owner. Keep records of all correspondence just in case a dispute arises.
• Property managers are available to help! Feel free to ask any questions during your stay.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like loud visitors disrupting your peace and quiet. Use the golden rule for common sense. Happy residents may even recommend great beaches and places you would have not otherwise known about!
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Residents can typically help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to find the best bike paths, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for shopping?
• Protect the owner (and your things!) by keeping the rental locked up when you are out, just like you would at home.
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before you drive away, take a walk through the property to make sure you've collected all belongings. Re-check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden items. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Please make sure to walk through the property a final time and keep an eye out for any damage. We recommend walking through with the host whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the manager isn't available, remember to take pictures of the rental to record its condition at check-out.
• Did your group have a excellent time? Many rental managers make it easy for travelers to provide reviews. If your rental and/or property manager was terrific, they will likely appreciate your kind words. If anything was imperfect and they failed to fix it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make it a point as part of your feedback.
