Our top Rental home tips:

Sticking to a spending budget:

• Reserve your rental in Spring or Fall to enjoy warm weather while saving money and avoiding crowds.
• Book your rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules generally become available 12 months in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many families reserve their Summer vacation rentals during Winter holiday gatherings. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property owner if your family qualifies for a reduced rate.
• Management companies and individual rental owners usually offer customers an option to add vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which generally will cost you between 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed time as a result of medical-related issues or weather, as well as evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance might be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for details.
• Many management companies and vacation rental houses supply Carolina Beach area visitors guide magazines which include money-saving offers, either offered directly by local companies, or through a relationship with the management company and the business itself. You can also find Carolina Beach visitors guide magazine and coupon books at local gas stations and shopping centers.

• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is often available on booking pages. Otherwise, email or call the property owner before you book the vacation home. Remember that most properties list the maximum guest capacity, which often includes sofa beds and bunks.
• Are you visiting for a single event? If so, use a map search to find nearby properties.
• Proper accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for persons with disabilities. Confirm all necessary amenities are available before reserving a rental.
• If your family is bringing pets, you'll need to search for a pet-friendly vacation rental. Ask for specifics on breed, size, and type requirements. Some hosts charge additional pet fees.

Some things to know before you go:

• Add the host's phone number to your smartphone. Print and take a copy of arrival/departure procedures.
• Upon check-in, document any issues with the rental property and immediately contact the owner. Keep records of all correspondence in case a dispute arises.
• Hosts are available to help! Feel free to ask any questions during your stay.
• Be a good neighbor. Often, adjacent homes are occupied by permanent residents. Respecting late-night noise limits and parking policies can make a stay significantly more pleasurable.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Locals can typically help. Who better to ask where to get the best seafood, have a great night out, or the best spots for fine dining?
• Ensure you protect the property owner (and your stuff!) by locking the property while you are away, just like you would at home.
• Upon check-out, complete a final walk-through to make sure you did not forget any personal items. Remember to check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden items. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Document the condition of the property at check-out. We recommend taking a video during your final walk-through.
