Rental property booking tips and tricks:

Sticking to your spending plan:

• In the Wilmington, NC area, The earlier your group can reserve a vacation rental, the easier your search will be. The most desirable vacation homes are reserved early. Booking your vacation rental six - twelve months before your travel dates is recommended. Holidays such as Christmas and Thanksgiving are excellent times to plan and reserve your vacation rental.
• Booking a rental in the Fall or Spring is one of our best tips for saving money on your rental home. Rates are lower, and you'll find a better selection of desirable properties.
• Owners sometimes offer discounts for veterans and active duty military. Check with your property manager to see if special offers are available for your family.
• Booking websites typically offer renters an option to obtain trip insurance. Trip insurance, which costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed trip time as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather, as well as evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for additional information.
• Many management companies and vacation rental houses supply Wilmington, NC area visitors guides which include special offers, either offered independently by local companies, or through a relationship 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.

Filter your rental search:

• First and foremost, have your group agree to the best dates and a max budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and the configuration your family requires. Cottage on intercoastal waterway with private pool, hot tub and large dock has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Precise details about bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is regularly accessible on booking pages. If not, call the property manager before you book your rental. Note that most properties list the maximum guest capacity, which frequently includes pull-out couches and bunk beds.
• If your group is bringing pets, search for a pet-friendly vacation rental. Get details on breed, weight, and type requirements. Be aware that some hosts require additional pet deposits and fees.
• Is your group looking for particular amenities? Most rental search websites include search filters with amenity lists.

Know before you go:

• Review arrival and departure procedures before traveling. Take a printed copy, and save the instructions to your phone.
• Hosts are available to help! Feel free to ask questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Protect the rental owner (and your things!) by locking the rental while you are away, just like you would back home.
• Upon arrival, record any damages to the rental property and immediately contact the property manager. Keep records of all coorespondence.
• Be a good neighbor. Often times, nearby homes are occupied by permanent residents. Respecting late-night noise limits and parking rules is the right thing to do.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Locals can often help. Who better to ask where to rent beach equipment, have a great night out, or the best spots for fishing?
• Don't leave anything behind! Before you drive away, walk through the rental to reconfirm you've collected all belongings. Make sure to check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden treasure. Clean the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Inspect the property one final time and look for damages to contents or the property itself. We recommend inspecting the property with the host whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the host isn't available, remember to take video and pictures of the property to record its condition at check-out.
• Did you have a fantastic vacation? Many rental managers make it easy for vacationers to provide feedback. If your rental and/or host was wonderful, they will likely appreciate your kind words. If anything was imperfect and they failed to address it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make a note as part of your review.
