Tips to get the very best rental home experience:

Get the best value:

• To get the best value, try shifting your family's Carolina Beach vacation to the Spring or Fall months. May, September, and October offer great temperatures, fewer crowds, and reduced traffic. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, or to book a beach front rental that would otherwise be unavailable during the Summer months. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Carolina Beach vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday near the ocean? Thanksgiving and Christmas are great times to gather with family and friends at the beach.
• The sooner you can reserve a home, the better your selection will be. The best vacation homes are booked early. Booking your vacation rental up to 12 months before your vacation is recommended. Holidays such as Christmas and Thanksgiving are excellent times to search for and reserve your rental home.
• Some property management companies offer promotional rates for veterans and active duty military. Check with your property manager to see if special offers are available for your family.
• Property managers usually offer guests an option to add vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which will generally cost anywhere between 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for days missed as a result of medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance can be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for specifics.
• Many management companies and vacation rental houses supply Carolina Beach area travel guide magazines which often include money-saving deals, either offered independently by local companies, or through a partnership between the rental management company and the business itself. You can also find Carolina Beach visitors guide and coupon books at local shops and grocery stores.

Planning and choosing your Carolina Beach rental home:

• Select a designated group leader, select your dates, and choose a spending budget.
• Decide how many bedrooms and what type of bedroom configuration your group needs. Porpoise Driven Life: 4 bedroom \/ 3.5 bath beachwalk home with private pool has 4 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms.
• Specific details about bedrooms and bed counts & types is usually available on booking websites. If you don't see them listed, email the property management company before reserving the rental. Note that most listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which often includes sofa beds. You will need to determine what is optimal for your vacation family.
• If there's a specific Carolina Beach attraction you long to visit, keep an eye out for homes that are either nearby, or those that cater especially to your desires.
• Proper accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for the less-mobile. Make certain to inquire about wheel chair accessibility, pool lifts and specialized equipment needs.
• Some rental properties allow pets, but some don't. Allowable types of pet, weight and breeds may be restricted, and additional charges may apply. Ask your host about pets before booking.

Know before you go:

• Be sure you get the owner's phone number and arrival/departure procedures for your rental home. Store the manager's information in your smartphone and wallet.
• Upon check-in, document any issues with the property and immediately contact the host. Keep records of all coorespondence.
• Hosts are there to help! Don't be shy to ask any questions during your stay.
• Respect your neighbors. Often, surrounding homes are filled by permanent residents. Respecting noise limits and parking regulations reduces conflict and allows everyone to enjoy their day.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Local residents can often help. Who better to ask where to see a beautiful sunrise or sunset, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fishing?
• Lock your vacation home while you are out and about. Protect the owner's property and your stuff!
• Re-check the property to make sure that you've packed everything at check-out. Remember to check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden items. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Go through the rental one final time and look for damages to contents or the property itself. We suggest walking through with the property manager whenever possible. If the manager is not available, ensure that you take video of the property to record its condition at check-out.
• After your trip, leave feedback! Hosts rely on excellent reviews to stimulate future reservations. They'll be much obliged for your feedback. Alternatively, if something wasn't right, other vacationers will be thankful you shared your review find their best vacation rental. Be fair with your review. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the owner could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded expeditiously to fix it.
