Tricks and tips to get the perfect Carolina Beach rental experience:

When to book & When to go:

• June, July, and August are the most expensive months in coastal NC. To book the largest vacation home for your budget, we strongly suggest booking in Fall or Spring. You'll enjoy lower rental rates, greater selection, warm weather and the absence of giant crowds at Carolina Beach restaurants, tours, and activities.
• The earlier your group can book a vacation rental, the easier your search will be. The best rental properties are booked very early. Reserving your rental property up to 12 months before your travel dates is recommended. Holidays such as Christmas and Thanksgiving are excellent times to search for and book your vacation home.
• Some hosts offer discounts for veterans. Remember to ask your host or property manager if special discounts are available for your family before you book.
• Property management companies often offer customers an option to obtain vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which usually will cost between 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed days as a result of medical-related issues or weather, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance can be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for details.
• Find a copy of your local visitors guide when you check-in. If your rental property doesn't have one, you can find them at local shops and fuel stations. In addition to great articles, visitors guide magazines contain discounts for local restaurants, attractions, and tours.

Finding the perfect rental home:

• Select a group leader, select your trip dates, and choose a budget.
• Determine how many beds and the configuration your family requires. Charming 3BR Cottage in Carolina Beach has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Specific details about bedrooms and bed counts is generally available on booking pages. If they are not listed, call the property management company before you reserve your home. Note that most property listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which typically includes pull-out couches and bunk beds.
• If there's a certain Carolina Beach destination you long to visit, browse rentals that are either close by, or those that cater to your needs.
• Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for guests that require the use of a wheelchair. Make certain to inquire about specialized equipment and wheel chair accessibility.
• Do your family pets travel with you? Many vacation homes allow animals, but guidelines and restrictions apply. Type of pet, size and breeds may be limited. Ask your property manager before booking, and study your agreement thoroughly! Additional fees or charges may be applied to your agreement.

Know before you go:

• Add the property manager's contact info to your phone. Understand and take a copy of check in/check out procedures.
• During check-in, note any issues with the property and immediately contact the owner. Keep records of all coorespondence.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a fireplace, television set or washer/dryer. Contact your owner. They are there to help! A brief telephone call prevents many problems.
• Don't forget to respect your neighbors. Often, adjacent homes are filled by local residents. Respecting quiet hours and parking policies can make a stay significantly more pleasurable.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Neighbors can usually help. Who better to ask where to go for the best drinks, have a great night out, or the best spots for crabbing?
• Lock your rental property while you are gone! Don't let crooks ruin your trip.
• Double-check every room of the vacation property to make sure that you've packed everything at departure. Re-check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden belongings. Clean out the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Inspect the rental a final time and scan for damages to contents or the property itself. We recommend inspecting the property with the host whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the manager is not available, take video of the property to record its condition.
• Remember to leave a review! Property managers rely on good reviews to compel new bookings. They'll be grateful for your review. Alternatively, if something went wrong, other families will appreciate that you share your review find their best vacation home. Be fair with your review. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the property manager could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded quickly to fix it.
