Strategies for getting the perfect vacation home experience:

Cost saving strategies:

• Summer is high season in the Wilmington, NC area. Reserve your rental property in the Fall or Spring shoulder seasons to enjoy beautiful weather while saving money and avoiding crowds. Many vacationers use this strategy to find larger homes within budget, or to reserve a beach front rental that would otherwise be unavailable during the Summer.
• Reserve your vacation home as early as possible. Rental schedules usually become available twelve months in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many groups reserve their Summer rental homes during Thanksgiving and Christmas gatherings. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Owners sometimes offer rate reductions for veterans. Ask your host or property manager if special offers are available for your family.
• Management companies and individual rental owners often offer guests an option to buy trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which generally will cost you between 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed vacation time as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unanticipated hotel or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for details.
• Many management companies supply Wilmington, NC area visitor guides which will include special offers, either offered independently by local companies, or by way of a partnership between the rental management company and the business itself. You can also find Wilmington, NC visitors guide magazine and coupon books at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers.

Use filters to narrow your rental search:

• Select vacation week and maximum budget.
• Note the number beds and the bed configuration your family needs. Cozy Beach House has 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Precise information regarding bedrooms and bed types is normally accessible online. If they are not listed, email the property manager before booking the property. Remember that most property listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which usually includes sofa beds. You'll need to work out what configuration is right for your trip.
• Visiting for a single attraction? Try a map search to locate nearby rentals.
• Appropriate accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for guests that require the use of a wheelchair. Make certain to inquire about specialized equipment and wheel chair accessibility.
• Some rentals allow pets, and others do not. Acceptable types of dog or cat, size and breeds may be restricted, and additional fees may apply. Ask the owner about allowable breeds and types before booking.

Additional considerations:

• Get the property manager's phone number and arrival/departure procedures for your rental.
• To make sure damages are not linked to your family's stay, make a record of any problem areas upon your arrival. Make contact with the rental manager right away to document your findings. If there is a dispute, having a record of concerns and contact attempts will be very helpful.
• Property managers are there to help! Don't be shy to ask questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Respecting quiet hours and parking rules can make a stay more pleasurable. You will magnify your chance to make local friends, and resident neighbors are usually a great source for finding the best local restaurants, beaches, and hangouts.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Residents can usually point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to find the best seashells, have a great night out, or the best spots for shopping?
• Protect the rental owner (and your stuff!) by keeping the rental locked up while you are out, just like you would back home.
• Just before checking out, take a walk-through to confirm you have not leave anything behind. Re-check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden items. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• After your trip, leave a review! Property owners rely on great feedback to inspire more bookings. They'll be much obliged for your feedback. Alternatively, if something went wrong, other vacationing families will appreciate that you share your experience find their best vacation home. Please be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the owner had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded expeditiously to remedy it.
