Strategies for getting the best Bald Head Island vacation home experience:

Get the most from your budget:

• Booking your Wilmington, NC vacation rental in the Fall or Spring is one of our best tips for saving money on your vacation rental. Rates are lower, and you'll find a better selection of acceptable properties. Many vacationers use this strategy to reserve larger homes, or to book a beach front rental that would otherwise be unavailable during the Summer months.
• In the Wilmington, NC area, The sooner you can book a vacation home, the easier your search will be. The best rental properties are booked early. Booking your rental property six - twelve months before your travel dates is recommended. Christmas, Thanksgiving and New Years Eve are excellent times to plan and book your rental.
• Some hosts and property managers offer special rates for active duty military and veterans. It's always a good idea to check with your host or property manager to see if rate reductions are available for your family.
• Property management companies frequently offer customers an option to buy trip insurance. Trip insurance, which generally costs 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed days as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as ensuing additional evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for details.
• Many management companies supply Wilmington, NC area travel guides that include coupons, either offered directly by local companies, or through a relationship with the rental management company and the business itself. You can also find Wilmington, NC area magazine and coupon books at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers.

Use filters to narrow your search:

• Choose your dates and max budget.
• Determine how many beds and the bed configuration you need. Kick back and relax in our little slice of heaven, just moments away from East Beach has 3 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms.
• Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts is generally accessible on booking websites. If they are not listed, contact the property manager before you book the home. Note that most listings specify the max. guest capacity, which usually includes pull-out couches and bunk beds.
• If there's a certain Wilmington, NC attraction you crave, browse properties that are either close by, or those that cater to your requirements.
• Appropriate accessibility can make or break a vacation for those with limited mobility. Confirm all required amenities are available before booking.
• Are you traveling with furry, four-legged family members? Many vacation homes allow animals, but guidelines and restrictions apply. Type of pet, size and breeds may be limited. Ask your property manager before booking, and study your agreement! Pet fees or charges applied to your contract.

More considerations:

• Add the property manager's contact info to your smartphone. Take a copy of arrival/departure procedures.
• Upon check-in, document any issues with the property and immediately alert the owner. Record all coorespondence.
• Property managers are there to help! Feel free to ask questions during your stay.
• Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking rules can make a stay more pleasurable. You will increase your chance to make some new local friends, and resident neighbors can be a terrific source for finding the best local scenic spots.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Neighbors can usually help. Who better to ask where to take kids for a treat, have a great night out, or the best spots for shopping?
• Lock your rental home while you're out and about. Keep your property safe!
• Re-check every room of the rental property to confirm that you've packed everything at departure. Check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden treasure. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Walk through the rental a final time and scan for any damage. We recommend walking through with the host whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the manager is not available, ensure that you take video and pictures of the property to record its condition at check-out.
• Did your family have a terrific time? Many rental managers make it easy for customers to provide feedback. If your property and/or host was great, they always love to hear your praise. If anything was imperfect and they failed to correct it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make it a point as part of your comments.
