Getting the best Bald Head Island vacation rental experience:

Cost saving strategies:

• Summertime is high season in Bald Head Island. To get the best value, try shifting your family's Wilmington, NC vacation to the Spring or Fall shoulder seasons. May, September, and even October offer great weather, fewer crowds, and reduced traffic. Many vacationers use this strategy to reserve larger homes, or to book a beach front vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable during the high season.
• The earlier your group can book a rental home, the easier your search will be. The best vacation rentals are reserved early. Booking your vacation rental six to twelve months before your vacation is recommended. Winter holidays are excellent times to search for and book your rental property.
• Hosts sometimes offer discounts for veterans and active duty military. Ask your host or property manager if special discounts are available for your group.
• Management companies and individual rental owners usually offer customers an option to obtain vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which generally costs between 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed days as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unanticipated hotel or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for specifics.
• Many rental management companies and vacation rental houses supply Wilmington, NC area visitor guide magazines that include special offers, either offered independently by local companies, or through a relationship with the property management company and the business itself.
