Tips to get the optimal Wilmington, NC rental home experience:

Getting the best rental value:

• Book your Wilmington, NC rental in Spring or Fall to get the benefit of gorgeous weather while saving money and avoiding crowded roads, restaurants, and activities.
• Some property managers offer discounts for veterans and active duty military. Remember to ask your property manager if special offers are available for your group.
• Booking websites typically offer customers an option to purchase trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which costs between 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed time as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for more information.
• Many property management companies and vacation rental houses supply Wilmington, NC area visitors guide magazines which will include coupons, either offered directly by local businesses, or by way of a relationship with the property management company and the business itself. You can also find visitors guide and coupon books at local gas stations and shopping centers.

• If your family is vacationing with pets, you must book a pet-friendly property. Request specifics on breed, weight, and type restrictions. Note that some property managers charge pet deposits and fees.
