Rental home booking tips and tricks:

Finding the best rental home value:

• Book your rental as early as possible. Rental schedules generally become available twelve months in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many groups book their Summer rental homes during Winter holiday get-togethers. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Summer months are high season in the Wilmington, NC area. To find the best value, shift your family's Wilmington, NC vacation to the Spring or Fall months. May, September, and even October offer great weather, fewer crowds, and reduced traffic. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, or to book a beach front rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during the high season.
• Property managers sometimes offer discounts or promotional rates for active duty military and veterans. Ask your property manager if special offers are available for your group before you book.
• Property managers frequently offer their guests an option to add vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which generally will cost between 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed vacation time as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as ensuing additional evacuation costs or charges, such as an unanticipated hotel or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance might be a a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for more information.
• Look for your local Wilmington, NC area magazine when you check-in. If your rental property doesn't have one, you can find them at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers. In addition to great local articles, travel guides have coupons for local accommodations, restaurants and tours.

Planning and choosing your prefectvacation home:

• Begin by selecting potential vacation weeks and a spending budget.
• Decide how many bedrooms and what type of bedroom configuration your family requires. Allegra: Dog-Friendly Home with Modern Kitchen \/ Baths and Easy Beach Access has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Specific information about bedrooms and bed types is generally available on booking websites. If you don't see them listed, contact the host before you book the home. Remember that most property listings specify the max. guest capacity, which oftentimes includes sofa beds.
• If your group is traveling with pets, you'll need to find a pet-friendly vacation rental. Request information on breed, weight, and type restrictions. Often, property managers charge pet deposits and fees.
• Visiting for a specific attraction? If so, use a map search to find nearby properties.
• Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for persons with disabilities. Confirm all required amenities are included before booking.

Advice for a wonderful stay:

• Add the property manager's contact information to your smartphone. Understand and take a copy of check in/check out procedures.
• Property managers are great sources of help! Don't be shy to ask questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Protect the rental owner (and your things!) by locking the property when you are out, just like you would at home.
• Document any damages to the property at check in, and immediately e-mail them to the owner. We specifically recommend e-mails and text messages, as they usually contain built-in time stamps that can be very helpful if damages are assessed.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like disagreeable vacationers disrupting your life at home. Employ the golden rule for common sense. If they like you, locals might even recommend great beaches and scenic spots you would have not otherwise known about!
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Locals can typically help. Who better to ask where to launch your kayaks, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fishing?
• Re-check every room of the vacation property to confirm that you've packed all of your family's items on check-out day. Make sure to check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden items. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Walk through the property a final time and scan for damage. We recommend inspecting the property with the property manager whenever you can. If the property manager is not available, take video and pictures of the property to record its condition at check-out.
• Did you have a great stay? Most rental websites make it easy for vacationers to provide comments. If your rental and/or host was fantastic, they would love to hear it. If anything was imperfect and they failed to address it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make it a point as part of your feedback.
