Tricks and tips to get the perfect Bald Head Island rental experience:

Finding the best value:

• Reserve your rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules usually open a year in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many groups reserve their Summer vacations during Winter holiday gatherings. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• To get the best value, shift your family's Wilmington, NC vacation to the Spring or Fall months. May, September, and October offer great temperatures, fewer crowds, and greatly reduced traffic.
• Some property managers offer discounts for veterans. Make sure to check with your host or property manager to see if special offers are available for your group before you book.
• Property management companies frequently offer customers an option to obtain vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which will generally cost between 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed trip time as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather, as well as evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance can be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for program terms and fees.
• Many rental management companies and vacation rental houses supply Wilmington, NC area travel guide magazines which often include coupons, either offered independently by local businesses, or through a relationship between the management company and the business itself. You can also find Wilmington, NC visitors guide and coupon books at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers.

Filter your search:

• Begin by choosing vacation dates and a maximum budget.
• Note the number beds and the bed configuration you need. Beautiful Waterfront Cottage has 1 bedrooms and 1 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our Wilmington, NC rental home search.
• Specific information regarding bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is often accessible online. Otherwise, email or call the host before you book the home. Note that most listings specify maximum guest capacity, which typically includes pull-out couches.
• If your family is bringing pets, you must reserve a pet-friendly rental. Make sure to ask for details on breed, size, and type requirements. Note that some property managers charge pet deposits and fees.
• Are you visiting for a specific attraction or event? Try a map search to find nearby properties.
• Proper accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for those with limited mobility. Remember to confirm all required amenities are available before booking

More tips for your stay:

• Be sure you get the property manager's contact number and entry/exit procedures for your rental. Store the host's information in your smartphone and wallet.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a garage door opener, A/V setup or appliance. Contact your property manager. They are there to help! A brief phone call prevents quite a few difficulties.
• Protect the owner (and your things!) by keeping the rental locked up while you are out, just like you would back home.
• During arrival, document any damages to the property and immediately alert the property manager. Record all coorespondence.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like loud vacationers bothering your home life. Use the golden rule for common sense. Happy residents may even recommend great local food and places you would have not otherwise known!
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Locals can usually help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to go for the best drinks, have a great night out, or the best spots for BBQ?
• Just prior to departing, complete a walk-through to confirm you didn't leave anything behind. Re-check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden belongings. Clean the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Did your group have a excellent vacation? Many rental managers make it easy for travelers to provide reviews. If your property and/or host was wonderful, they would love to hear about it. If anything was defective and they failed to address it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make a note as part of your comments.
