Our top Vacation rental booking tips and tricks:

Sticking to a spending plan:

• Summertime is the most expensive season in Carolina Beach. To book the most suitable vacation home for your budget, we suggest reserving in the Fall or Spring shoulder seasons. You'll enjoy lower rates, better selection, warm weather and the absence of giant crowds at Wilmington, NC restaurants, tours, and activities.
• The sooner your group can reserve a vacation home, the better your selection will be. The most desirable rental properties are booked early. Reserving your rental home six - twelve months before your travel dates is recommended. Christmas, Thanksgiving and New Years Eve are excellent times to search for and reserve your rental property.
• Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property management company or host if your vacationing group qualifies for a reduced rate.
• Property management companies usually offer guests an option to purchase trip insurance. Trip insurance, which commonly will cost between 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed trip time as a result of medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional 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 specifics.
• Find a copy of your local Wilmington, NC area magazine when you check-in. If your rental doesn't have one, you can find them at local grocery stores and visitor centers. In addition to great local information, visitor guides have discounts for nearby tours, shops, and attractions.

Use filters to search efficiently:

• First, have your group commit to a vacation week and a maximum budget.
• Note the number beds and what type of bedroom configuration your family needs. Blue Crab Hideaway, Oceanfront with pool has 2 bedrooms and 1 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our vacation rental search.
• Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is almost always accessible online. Otherwise, contact the property owner before you reserve your home. Note that most listings specify maximum guest capacity, which usually includes pull out couches in living rooms.
• If there's a specific Wilmington, NC destination you simply love, search for rentals that are either close by, or those that cater to your desires.
• Proper accessibility can make or break a vacation for guests that require the use of a wheelchair. Make certain to inquire about wheel chair entry, pool lifts and specialized equipment needs.
• 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. Remember to ask the property manager before booking, and study your agreement! Extra fees or could be applied to your agreement.

Considerations for your stay:

• Get the owner's phone number and arrival/departure procedures for your rental. Put the manager's information in your smartphone.
• Note any damages to the property during check in, and immediately e-mail them to the property manager. We specifically recommend e-mails and text messages, as they usually contain time stamps that are very helpful if damages are attributed to your stay.
• Hosts are there to help! Feel free to ask any questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Be respectful. Often times, adjacent homes are occupied by local residents. Respecting quiet hours and parking rules can make a stay significantly more pleasurable.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Locals can frequently help. Who better to ask where to launch your kayaks, have a great night out, or the best spots for fine dining?
• Lock your vacation home while you are out and about. Keep your property safe!
• When it's time to leave, complete a final walk-through to make sure you didn't leave anything behind. Check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden items. Clean the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Did your family have a great vacation? Many rental home management companies make it easy for customers to provide feedback. If your rental property and/or property management company was wonderful, they always love to hear your praise. If anything was wrong and they failed to address it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make it a point as part of your review.
