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

Sticking to a rental budget:

• Reserve your Wilmington, NC rental home in the Spring or Fall to enjoy warm weather while saving money and avoiding crowds. Many vacationers use this method to find larger homes within budget, or to reserve an oceanfront rental that would otherwise be unavailable during the Summer. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Wilmington, NC vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation on the coast? Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with friends and family at the beach.
• The sooner your group can book, the better your selection will be. The best rental properties are reserved early. Booking your rental 6-12 months before your vacation is recommended. Holiday gatherings are excellent times to plan and reserve your vacation home.
• Hosts sometimes offer discounts for veterans. It's always a good idea to check with your property manager to see if special offers are available for your group.
• Property management companies often offer customers an option to purchase trip insurance. Trip insurance, which costs 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed time as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel stay or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for program terms and fees.
• Look for your local Wilmington, NC visitors guide upon checking in. If your rental property doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local shops and fuel stations. In addition to great local stories, travel guide magazines have offers and deals for nearby accommodations and attractions.

Narrow your Search:

• Choose vacation dates and spending budget.
• Note the number beds and the bed configuration your family needs. Cheerful 3BR\/2BA - just steps to the beach! has 4 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts & types is normally available on booking pages. Otherwise, reach out to the property owner before reserving your rental. Note that most properties list the max. guest capacity, which usually includes pull out couches in living rooms. You will need to work out what configuration is right for your group.
• Are you visiting for a single attraction? Try a map search to find nearby properties.
• Suitable accessibility can make or break a vacation for the less-mobile. .
• Some properties allow pets, and others don't. Allowable types of family pet, weight and breeds may be restricted, and added charges may apply. Ask the property management company about pets before booking.

Some things to know before you go:

• Take a copy of the property manager's phone number and arrival/departure procedures for your rental home.
• At Check-in, document any damages to the rental property and immediately contact the host. Keep records of all correspondence just in case a dispute arises.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a hot tub, television set or washer/dryer. Contact your property manager. They are there to help! A brief text message can prevent many concerns.
• Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking restrictions can make a stay more pleasurable. Be a good neighbor. You will enhance your chance to make local friends, and resident neighbors are a great source for finding the best local beaches.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Local residents can usually point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to go for the best drinks, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for bird watching?
• Keep your rental home locked while you are gone! Don't let burglars spoil your holiday.
• Don't leave anything behind! Before departing, walk through the rental property to confirm you've collected all personal items. Make sure to check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden belongings. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Walk through the rental one final time and keep an eye out for any damage. We suggest inspecting the property with the host whenever you can. If the host is not available, take pictures of the property to record its condition.
• After your trip, leave feedback! Hosts rely on good feedback to propel more bookings. They'll be thankful for your review. Alternatively, if something wasn't as described, other vacationing families will be thankful you shared your experience find their best vacation rental. Remember to be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the host had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded reasonably to solve it.
