Tips and Tricks for getting the best Wilmington rental home experience:

Getting the most from your vacation rental budget:

• The earlier you can book a rental home, the easier your search will be. The most desirable rental properties are reserved early. Reserving your rental property six - twelve months before your vacation dates is recommended. Winter holidays are excellent times to plan and book your rental home.
• Summer is high season in Wilmington. To get the best value, consider changing your vacation to the Spring or Fall seasons. May, September, and October offer great weather, less crowded beaches, and reduced traffic. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Carolina Beach vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation near the ocean? Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with loved ones at the beach.
• Property managers sometimes offer discounts for active duty military and veterans. It's always a good idea to check with your property manager to see if special offers are available for your family.
• Management companies and individual rental owners typically offer guests an option to obtain vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which commonly will cost 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed days as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as evacuation costs or charges, such as an unanticipated hotel or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance can be a a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for program terms and fees.
• Find a copy of your local Carolina Beach visitors guide when you arrive at the rental property. If your rental doesn't have one, you can find them at local grocery stores and visitor centers. In addition to great local articles, visitors guides have discounts for nearby restaurants, attractions, and tours.

Make a plan and choose your prefect Carolina Beach vacation home:

• First and foremost, have your family choose a vacation week and a max budget.
• Decide how many beds and what type of bedroom configuration your family requires. Wilmington Vacation Rental, Walk to Downtown! has 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Precise information about bedrooms and bed types is regularly accessible on booking websites. If you don't see them listed, reach out to the host before you reserve your home. Note that most listings specify the max. guest capacity, which often includes pull-out couches. You'll need to work out what is best for your vacation.
• If your group is vacationing with pets, filter your search for a rental that allows animals. Request specifics on breed, weight, and type restrictions. Usually, property owners require additional pet deposits and fees.
• Visiting for a single attraction or event? Use a map search to find nearby properties.
• Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for the less-mobile. Make certain to inquire about wheel chair entry, pool lifts and specialized equipment needs.

Advice for your stay:

• Store the host's contact information in your smartphone.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a fireplace, elevator or washer/dryer. Contact your owner. They are there to help! A brief phone call can prevent lots of problems.
• Keep the property locked while you're gone! Don't let thieves spoil your vacation.
• To ensure that damages aren't attributed to your stay, make note of any problem areas during check in. Make contact with the rental manager right away to relay your findings. If there is a dispute about legal responsibility later, having a record of issues and contact attempts will be helpful.
• Be respectful of your neighbors. Frequently, adjacent homes are occupied by permanent residents. Respecting quiet hours and parking rules is the right thing to do.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Neighbors can often help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to charter a fishing boat, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for crabbing?
• When it's time to leave, take a walk-through to make sure you did not forget anything. Re-check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden treasure. Clean out the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Go through the property one final time and look for damages to contents or the property itself. We recommend walking through with the property manager whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the property manager is not available, ensure that you take photos and video of the rental to record its condition at check-out.
• Leave a review! Hosts rely on great feedback to stimulate more reservations. They'll be much obliged for your review. Alternatively, if something wasn't as described, other vacationers will be thankful you shared your feedback find their best rental home. 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 reasonably to fix it.
