Strategies to get the very best Wilmington, NC rental home experience:

When to visit & When to reserve a Bald Head Island rental home:

• Booking a rental in the Fall or Spring is one of our best tips for saving money on your vacation rental. Rental rates are lower, and you'll find a better selection of suitable homes. Many vacationers use this method to find larger homes within budget, or to reserve an oceanfront rental that would otherwise be unavailable during the high season. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Wilmington, NC vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday near the ocean? Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with friends and family at the beach.
• Book your vacation home as early as possible. Rental schedules usually become available 12 months in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many groups book their Summer rental homes during holiday gatherings. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property manager or host if your vacationing group qualifies for a special rate.
• Booking websites frequently offer their guests an option to obtain trip insurance. Trip insurance, which usually will cost you anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed trip time as a result of medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as evacuation costs or charges, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance can be a a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for additional information.
• Often, management companies supply Wilmington, NC area visitor guide magazines which will include special deals, either offered independently by local businesses, or through a relationship with the management company and the business itself. You can also find Wilmington, NC visitors guide magazine and coupon books at local shops and grocery stores.

Choosing the best vacation rental:

• Begin by selecting your vacation dates and a spending budget.
• Decide how many beds and the bed configuration your group requires. Fire Hut, Bald Head Island Element\/Studio On Marina has 1 bedrooms and 1 bathrooms.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is almost always accessible online. If not, contact the property owner before booking the vacation property. Note that most property listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which oftentimes includes sofa beds.
• If there's a particular Wilmington, NC attraction you crave, browse properties that are either nearby, or those that cater especially to your desires.
• Suitable accessibility can make or break a vacation for persons with disabilities. Make certain to ask about wheel chair accessibility, pool lifts and specialized equipment needs.
• If your group is bringing pets, you'll need to find a property that allows animals. Get specifics on breed, size, and type restrictions. Often, property managers require additional pet deposits and fees.

Considerations for your stay:

• Add the owner's contact information to your smartphone. Understand and take a copy of arrival/departure procedures.
• To ensure that damages aren't linked to your stay, inspect for any problem areas upon check in. Speak to the host right away to relay your findings. If there is a dispute, having the recorded concerns and contact attempts will be very helpful.
• Property managers are available to help! Feel free to ask any questions during your stay.
• Respecting quiet hours and parking restrictions can make a stay more pleasurable. You'll magnify your chance to make some new local friends, and resident neighbors can be an excellent source for finding the best local scenic spots.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Locals can often help. Who better to ask where to find the fresh catch of the day, have a great night out, or the best spots for crabbing?
• Protect the rental owner (and your things!) by locking the property when you are out, just like you would at home.
• When it's time to leave, complete a final walk-through to make sure you did not leave anything behind. Check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden belongings. Clean the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Inspect the rental one final time and scan for any damage. We suggest walking through with the property manager whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the manager isn't available, ensure that you take video of the property to record its condition.
• Leave a review! Hosts rely on great ratings to stimulate new reservations. They'll be much obliged for your feedback. Alternatively, if something wasn't right, other families will appreciate that you share your review and help them have the best future vacation. Please be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the host had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded reasonably to solve it.
