Strategies for getting the perfect vacation property experience:

How to get the best rental value:

• June, July, and August are the most expensive months in coastal NC. Booking your Wilmington, NC vacation rental in the Fall or Spring shoulder seasons is our best tip for saving money on your rental home. Rental rates are lower, and you'll find a better selection of acceptable homes. Many vacationers use this method to find larger homes within budget, or to reserve an oceanfront rental that would otherwise be unavailable during the high season.
• The earlier you can reserve a home, the better your selection will be. The most desirable vacation rentals are reserved early. Reserving your rental up to twelve months before your vacation dates is recommended. Holidays such as Christmas and Thanksgiving are excellent times to plan and reserve your vacation rental.
• Property management companies sometimes offer discounts for veterans. Remember to ask your host or property manager if rate reductions are available for your family before you book.
• Property management companies typically offer guests an option to add vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which usually will cost 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed trip time as a result of medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance might be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for specifics.
• Look for your local Wilmington, NC visitors guide magazine when you check-in. If your rental doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers. In addition to great local information, visitor guides have money saving offers on local accommodations and attractions.

• Choose your vacation dates and maximum budget.
• Decide how many bedrooms and the bed configuration your family needs. You need a VACATION. 5 bdrms,6 Decks,Elevator, Great views!! Short walk to beach has 5 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our Wilmington, NC rentals search.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts & types is often available on booking pages. Otherwise, call the property owner before you book the vacation home. Note that most properties list the max. guest capacity, which oftentimes includes pull-out couches.
• Are you visiting for a specific attraction? Try a map search to locate nearby properties.
• Proper accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for guests with disabilities. Confirm all required amenities are available before reserving a rental.
• Do your family pets travel with you? Many vacation homes allow animals, but guidelines and restrictions apply. Allowable pet type, breed, and size are often limited. Ask your property manager before booking, and study your rental agreement! Additional pet fees or costs might be applied to your invoice.

More tips for your stay:

• Take a copy of the property manager's contact number and check in/check out procedures for your rental property.
• Document any issues with the rental upon arrival, and immediately contact the owner. We especially recommend e-mails and text messages, as they usually contain built-in time stamps that can be beneficial if a dispute arises.
• Property managers are there to help! Don't be shy to ask questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking restrictions can make a stay significantly more pleasurable. Be a good neighbor. You'll increase your chance to make some new local friends, and resident neighbors are often a great resource to find the best local attractions.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Locals can often help. Who better to ask where to spend a rainy day, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fine dining?
• Lock your vacation home while you're out and about. Keep your property safe!
• Re-check every room of the vacation property to make sure that you've packed all personal items at departure. Remember to check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden items. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Remember to leave feedback! Property managers rely on great reviews to drive more bookings. They'll be grateful for your review. Alternatively, if something went awry, other vacationing families will will be grateful for your experience find their best rental home. Please be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the property manager had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded expeditiously to remedy it.
