Wilmington, NC rental home booking tips:

Money saving strategies:

Book your vacation rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules usually open 12 months in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many families book their Summer vacation rentals during Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years Eve gatherings. Book before these holidays for best selection.
Summer time is high season in Oak Island. Reserving a rental home in the Fall or Spring is our best tip for saving money on your vacation. Rental rates are lower, and you'll find a better selection of acceptable properties. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, or to book a beach front vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during June, July, and August. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Wilmington, NC vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation near the ocean? Christmas, Thanksgiving, and New Years Eve are great times to gather with friends and family at the beach.
Veterans and Active Duty Military members may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective host whether your family qualifies for a price reduction or discount.
Property management companies usually offer customers an option to obtain trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which generally will cost you between 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any days missed as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance can be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for specifics.
Look for your local Wilmington, NC visitors guide when you arrive at the rental property. If your rental home doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local grocery stores and visitor centers. In addition to great information, travel guides contain offers and deals for local attractions, tours, restaurants, and shops.

Filter your search:

Begin by selecting a vacation week and a spending budget.
Decide how many bedrooms and the bed configuration your family needs. 3 BR Cozy home on the NE side of the Island has 3 bedrooms and 1 bathrooms.
Precise information about bedrooms and bed counts is usually accessible online. If not, contact the property manager before you book your rental. Remember that most properties list the max. guest capacity, which frequently includes sofa beds and bunks.
Some rentals allow pets, but others do not. Acceptable types of pet, size and breeds may be restricted, and added costs may apply. Ask the host about pet restrictions before booking.
If there's an individual Wilmington, NC beach you crave, look for properties that are either near by, or those that cater especially to your desires.
Suitable accessibility can make or break a vacation for guests that require the use of a wheelchair. Remember to confirm all necessary amenities are included before booking

Know before you go:

Get the host's phone number and check in/check out procedures for your rental home. Store the host's information in your smartphone and wallet.
Property managers are there to help! Don't be shy to ask questions during your stay.
Lock your rental home while you're away. Protect the owner's property and your things!
To make certain damages aren't linked to your visit, inspect the rental for any problem areas upon your arrival. Get in touch with the property manager immediately to relay any damages. If there is a dispute, having a record of concerns and contact attempts will be valuable.
Be respectful of your neighbors. Often, surrounding homes are occupied by permanent residents. Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking rules is the right thing to do.
Don't forget to... Ask a local! Neighbors can usually help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to rent beach equipment, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fine dining?
Don't leave anything behind! Just before departing, walk through the property to make sure you've collected all personal items. Remember to check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden treasure. 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.
Did your family have a great vacation? Many rental managers make it easy for vacationers to provide reviews. If your rental and/or property management company was great, they will likely appreciate your kind words. If anything was imperfect and they failed to address 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 feedback.
