Tips and Tricks to get the best Wilmington, NC vacation rental experience:

How to get the best rental value:

• The sooner your group can book a rental home, the better your selection will be. The most desirable vacation homes are booked very early. Booking your rental six to twelve months before your vacation is recommended. Christmas, Thanksgiving and New Years Eve are excellent times to search for and reserve your vacation home.
• Booking your vacation home in the Fall or Spring is one of our best tips for saving money on your vacation home. Rental rates are lower, and you'll find a larger selection of desirable homes.
• Some property management companies offer special rates for active duty military and veterans. Make sure to check with your host or property manager to see if special discounts are available for your family.
• Property managers frequently offer renters an option to buy trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which costs 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 or charges, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance can be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for additional information.
• Often, rental management companies and vacation rental houses supply Wilmington, NC area visitors guides which will include money-saving offers, either offered directly by local companies, or through a relationship between the management company and the business itself. You can also find Wilmington, NC visitors guide magazine and coupon books at local gas stations and shopping centers.

Make a plan and choose your prefect Wilmington, NC vacation home:

• Choose your vacation week and budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and what type of bedroom configuration your group needs. A Frame of Mind: Stylish Mid-Century Mod Getaway Close to Waterway has 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Specific details about bedrooms and bed counts & types is generally accessible on booking websites. If they are not listed, call the host before reserving the home. Note that most listings specify maximum guest capacity, which often includes pull-out couches. You will need to work out what bed configuration is optimal for your family.
• Traveling with pets? Although a number of vacation homes allow pets or animals, guidelines and costs vary per property. Type of pet, size and breeds may be limited. Remember to ask the property manager before booking, and study your agreement thoroughly! Additional fees or costs may be applied to your agreement.
• If there's an individual Wilmington, NC destination you love, search for rentals that are either nearby, or those that cater especially to your desires.
• Appropriate accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for the less-mobile. Confirm all required amenities are included before reserving a rental.

Advice for your stay:

• Review arrival and departure procedures before traveling. Take a printed copy, and save the instructions to your phone.
• Hosts are there to help! Feel free to ask any questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Lock your rental home while you are out. Protect your property!
• Record any issues with the property at check in, and immediately send them to the property manager. We especially recommend e-mails and text messages, as they usually contain built-in time stamps that are very helpful if damages are attributed to your stay.
• Don't forget to respect your neighbors. Often times, adjacent homes are occupied by local residents. Respecting noise limits and parking rules is the right thing to do.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Local residents can frequently point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to order delicious takeout, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fishing?
• Just prior to departing, complete a final walk-through to confirm you did not forget any personal items. Re-check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden items. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Walk through the rental a final time and scan for any damage. We recommend inspecting the property with the host whenever you can. If the host is not available, ensure that you take pictures of the rental to record its condition.
• Did your group have a terrific time? Most rental home management companies make it easy for clients to provide reviews. If your rental and/or property manager was wonderful, they always love to hear your praise. If anything was wrong and they failed to correct it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make a note as part of your feedback.
