Strategies to get the optimal vacation home experience:

Getting the most from your vacation rental budget:

• The sooner your group can reserve a home, the easier your search will be. The most desirable properties are reserved early. Reserving your vacation property 6-12 months before your travel dates is recommended. Holidays such as Christmas and Thanksgiving are excellent times to plan and book your vacation home.
• To find the largest vacation home within budget, we recommend booking in the Fall or Spring shoulder seasons. You'll enjoy lower rental rates, better selection, gorgeous weather and the absence of large crowds at the beach and popular Wilmington, NC attractions. Many vacationers use this method to find larger homes within budget, or to reserve an oceanfront vacation rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during the Summer.
• Some owners offer special rates for veterans and active duty military. Make sure to check with your host or property manager to see if discounts are available for your family.
• Booking websites typically offer guests an option to add trip insurance. Trip insurance, which generally will cost 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed days as a result of medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel stay or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance can be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for more information.
• Find a copy of your local Wilmington, NC visitors guide upon checking in. If your rental property doesn't have one, you can find them at local shops and fuel stations. In addition to great information, visitors guide magazines contain deals for nearby accommodations, restaurants and tours.

Use filters to narrow your rental search:

• Begin by selecting your potential vacation weeks and a max budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and the configuration your group requires. Amazing views, steps to the ocean - OKI gem has 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms.
• Precise details about bedrooms and bed types is generally accessible online. If they are not listed, email or call the property owner before reserving the rental. Note that most properties list the maximum guest capacity, which often includes pull-out couches. You will need to establish which bed configuration is suitable for your vacation group.
• Some properties allow pets, and others do not. Allowable types of family pet, size and breeds may be restricted, and added fees may apply. Ask the property manager about allowable pet guidelines before booking.
• If there's a specific Wilmington, NC attraction you simply love, look for homes that are either near by, or those that cater to your needs.
• Proper accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for the less-mobile. .

More tips for your stay:

• Take a copy of the property manager's contact number and entry/exit procedures for your rental.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a fireplace, elevator or coffee maker. Contact your host. They are there to help! A brief telephone call prevents lots of concerns.
• Lock your rental while you are away. Protect the owner's property and your stuff!
• Document any issues with the property at check in, and immediately send them to the host. We specifically recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain time stamps that are valuable if damages are assessed.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like obnoxious vacationers disrupting your peaceful neighborhood. Practice the golden rule for best judgement. If they like you, locals might even recommend great restaurants and scenic spots you would have never otherwise known about!
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Residents can often help. Who better to ask where to launch your kayaks, have a great night out, or the best spots for bird watching?
• When it's time to leave, take a walk-through to make sure you did not leave anything behind. Re-check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden items. Clean out the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Inspect the property one final time and scan for any damage. We suggest walking through with the property manager whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the host isn't available, ensure that you take photographs of the rental to record its condition.
• Did your group have a terrific stay? Many rental management companies make it easy for vacationers to provide comments. If your rental and/or property manager was wonderful, they would love to hear about it. If anything was imperfect and they failed to fix it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make a note as part of your comments.
