Getting the best Bald Head Island rental home experience:

Find your perfect rental:

• The sooner your group can book a vacation rental, the better your selection will be. The best properties are booked very early. Reserving your vacation property 6-12 months before your vacation is recommended. Christmas, Thanksgiving and New Years Eve are excellent times to search for and book your rental.
• To find the best value, try shifting your vacation week to the Spring or Fall seasons. May, September, and even October offer pleasant weather, less crowded beaches, and reduced traffic.
• Some property managers offer special rates for active duty military and veterans. It's always a good idea to check with your property manager to see if special offers are available for your group.
• Management companies and individual rental owners usually offer renters an option to buy trip insurance. Trip insurance, which normally costs between 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any days missed as a result of medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel stay or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance can be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for more information.
• Many management companies and vacation rental houses supply Wilmington, NC area visitors guide magazines that include money-saving offers, either offered directly by local businesses, or through a partnership between the rental management company and the business itself. You can also find Wilmington, NC visitors guide magazine and coupon books at local shops and grocery stores.

Use filters to narrow your search:

• First and foremost, have your group commit to trip dates and a maximum budget.
• Note the number beds and the bed configuration your group needs. Washashore - South Beach Oceanfront Home w\/Views, Wraparound Deck, Tons of Natural Light, BHI Club has 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms.
• Precise information about bedrooms and bed counts & types is regularly available on booking pages. Otherwise, call the property owner before you reserve the property. Note that most property listings specify the max. guest capacity, which typically includes pull-out couches and bunk beds. You will need to establish what configuration is optimal for your vacation group.
• If your group is bringing pets, you must reserve a property that allows animals. Ask for information on breed, size, and type restrictions. Usually, property managers charge pet deposits and fees.
• If there's a particular Wilmington, NC beach you love, search for rentals that are either nearby, or those that cater especially to your needs.
• Proper accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for persons with disabilities. .

Tips for your stay:

• Get the owner's phone number and entry/exit procedures for your rental. Put 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.
• Ensure you protect the owner (and your stuff!) by locking and securing the home while you are away, just like you would at home.
• During check-in, note any damages to the property and immediately alert the host. Keep records of all correspondence just in case a dispute arises.
• Be respectful. Often, adjacent homes are filled by permanent residents. Respecting quiet hours and parking regulations can make a stay significantly more pleasurable.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Local residents can often help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to take kids for a treat, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fishing?
• Just before checking out, take a walk-through to confirm you did not forget any personal items. Check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden items. Clean out the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Go through the rental one final time and look for damage. We advise walking through with the property manager whenever possible. If the host is not available, take photographs of the property to record its condition at check-out.
• Did you have a wonderful vacation? Many rental home management companies make it easy for vacationers to provide feedback. If your rental property and/or property management company was fantastic, they would love to hear it. If anything was wrong and they failed to fix it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make a note as part of your feedback.
