Tricks and tips to get the optimal Wilmington, NC vacation rental experience:

Money saving strategies:

• Reserve your rental as early as possible. Rental schedules usually become available a year in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many families book their Summer rentals during Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years Eve gatherings. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• To find the best value, consider changing your family's Wilmington, NC vacation week to the Spring or Fall shoulder seasons. May, September, and October offer pleasant weather, less crowded beaches, and reduced traffic.
• Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective host whether your group qualifies for a special promotion or discount.
• Management companies and individual rental owners often offer renters an option to obtain trip insurance. Trip insurance, which normally will cost anywhere between 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed time as a result of medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unanticipated hotel or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance might be a a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for more information.
• Many rental management companies and vacation rental houses supply Wilmington, NC area visitor guide magazines which include coupons, either offered independently by local businesses, or through a partnership between the management company and the business itself. You can also find Wilmington, NC area magazine and coupon books at local gas stations and shopping centers.

Make a plan and pick the right Wilmington, NC vacation home:

• Choose your dates and max budget.
• Note the number bedrooms and the configuration your family requires. Canal Home- The Beach Cottage has 4 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Specific information about bedrooms and bed counts & types is usually accessible on booking pages. If they are not listed, call the property owner before reserving your home. Remember that most property listings specify the max. guest capacity, which typically includes pull-out couches and bunk beds. You'll need to determine what bed configuration is optimal for your trip.
• If your group is bringing pets, you'll need to find a rental that allows animals. Ask for information on breed, size, and type requirements. Usually, property owners charge additional pet fees.

• Store the owner's contact information in your smartphone and wallet.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a fireplace, television set or coffee maker. Contact your owner. They are there to help! A brief telephone call prevents a lot of problems.
