Tips and Tricks to get the perfect Wilmington, NC rental experience:

Getting the most from your rental home budget:

Reserve your vacation home as early as possible. Rental schedules usually become available twelve months in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many groups book their Summer rental homes during Thanksgiving and Christmas gatherings. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
Summer months are the most expensive season in coastal NC. To book the best rental within your budget, we recommend booking in the Spring or Fall. You'll benefit from lower rates, better selection, warm weather and the absence of giant crowds at restaurants, beaches, and activities. Many vacationers use this strategy to find larger homes within budget, or to reserve a beach front rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during the Summer.
Veterans and Active Duty Military members may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective host whether your family qualifies for a price reduction or discount.
Property management companies often offer guests an option to purchase vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which normally will cost 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed time as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as ensuing additional evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance can be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for more information.
Many property management companies supply Wilmington, NC area travel guides which include money-saving deals, either offered independently by local companies, or through a partnership between the property management company and the business itself. You can also find Wilmington, NC area magazine and coupon books at local shops and grocery stores.

Planning, selecting, and booking your prefectrental:

Select dates and max budget.
Note the number beds and the configuration you need. Charming, Oceanfront -4 Bedrooms\/2 Bath-Just You and the BEACH has 5 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
Specific information regarding bedrooms and bed counts & types is generally accessible on booking pages. Otherwise, email the property management company before you reserve your rental. Note that most property listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which typically includes pull-out couches. You will need to work out what is suitable for your family.
Some rentals allow pets, but some do not. Acceptable types of pet, size and breeds may be restricted, and additional charges may apply. Ask the owner about pets before booking.
If there's a certain Wilmington, NC destination you are crazy about, browse properties that are either nearby, or those that cater to your requirements.
Suitable accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for guests that require the use of a wheelchair. .

Have a fantastic stay:

Add the property manager's phone number to your phone. Understand and take a copy of arrival/departure procedures.
Hosts are there to help! Don't be shy to ask any questions during your stay.
Keep the property locked while you are away! Don't let thieves ruin your holiday.
To make sure damages are not linked to your stay, record any problem areas during check in. Make contact with the property manager right away to report any issues. If there is a dispute, having a record of issues and contact attempts will be helpful.
Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking rules can make a stay more pleasurable. Be a good neighbor. You will increase your chance to make some new local friends, and resident neighbors can be a great resource to find the best local spots.
Don't forget to... Ask a local! Locals can typically help. Who better to ask where to spend a rainy day, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for BBQ?
At departure, take a final walk-through to make sure you haven't forget any personal items. Check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden items. Clean the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
Inspect the rental one final time and keep an eye out for any damage. We recommend inspecting the property with the property manager whenever possible. If the property manager is not available, take video and pictures of the property to record its condition at check-out.
Did your family have a fantastic time? Most rental managers make it easy for travelers to provide reviews. If your rental property and/or property management company was fantastic, they always love to hear your praise. If anything was imperfect and they failed to correct it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make a note as part of your review.
