How to book the best Carolina Beach vacation rental experience:

Getting the most from your budget:

• Summer months are the most expensive season in the Carolina Beach area. To find the best vacation home within your budget, we suggest reserving in the Fall or Spring. You'll benefit from lower rates, better selection, warm 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 reserve an oceanfront rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during June, July, and August.
• In the Carolina Beach area, The sooner your group can reserve a vacation home, the easier your search will be. The most desirable properties are booked very early. Reserving your vacation rental six to twelve months before your vacation is recommended. Christmas, Thanksgiving and New Years Eve are excellent times to search for and book your rental.
• Some property management companies offer rate reductions for veterans. Ask your host or property manager if special offers are available for your family before you book.
• Property management companies frequently offer customers an option to buy vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which will generally cost 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed time as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel stay or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance might be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for program terms and fees.
• Look for your local visitors guide when you arrive at the rental property. If your rental property doesn't have one, you can find them at local grocery stores and visitor centers. In addition to great information, visitors guides have offers and deals for nearby restaurants, attractions, and tours.

Use filters to search efficiently:

• Start by having your group commit to dates and a spending budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and the bed configuration your group needs. Charming Beach Cottage-1 block to beach/boardwalk has 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our search.
• Precise information about bedrooms and bed counts & types is regularly available on booking pages. If you don't see them listed, email the property manager before reserving your home. Remember that most properties list the max. guest capacity, which often includes sofa beds and bunks. You will need to establish what is suitable for your group.
• Are you visiting for a single event or attraction? Use a map search to browse nearby properties.
• Proper accessibility can make or break a vacation for persons with a disability. .
• If your group is traveling with pets, you must book a pet-friendly property. Request details on breed, size, and type restrictions. Note that some hosts charge additional pet fees.

Tips for a great stay:

• Review check in & check out procedures before leaving home. Take a printed copy, and add a note with the instructions to your phone.
• Record any issues with the rental during check in, and immediately contact the host. We especially recommend e-mails and text messages, as they usually contain time stamps that can be very helpful if damages are assessed.
• Property managers are great sources of help! Feel free to ask questions during your stay.
• Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking restrictions can make a stay more pleasurable. Be a good neighbor. You will magnify your chance to make local friends, and resident neighbors are usually a fantastic resource to find the best local beaches and hangouts.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Locals can often help. Who better to ask where to find the best seashells, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for crabbing?
• Lock your rental home while you are out. Protect your property!
• Re-check every room of the property to confirm that you've packed all personal items at check-out. Make sure to check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden belongings. Clean the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Did your family have a excellent vacation? Most rental websites make it easy for customers to provide reviews. If your rental and/or property management company was fantastic, they will likely appreciate your kind words. If anything was wrong and they failed to correct it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make a note as part of your review.
