Wilmington, NC rental booking tips:

Cost saving strategies:

• Summertime is high season in the Wilmington, NC area. To get the best value, consider changing your family's Wilmington, NC vacation dates to the Spring or Fall months. May, September, and October offer pleasant temperatures, less crowded beaches, and reduced traffic. Many vacationers use this strategy to reserve larger homes, or to book an oceanfront vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable during the high season. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Wilmington, NC vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday on the coast? Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with loved ones at the beach.
• In the Wilmington, NC area, The earlier you can book a vacation rental, the better your selection will be. The best properties are reserved very early. Booking your vacation rental up to twelve months before your vacation is recommended. Holidays such as Christmas and Thanksgiving are excellent times to plan and reserve your rental home.
• Some property managers offer promotional rates for veterans and active duty military. Check with your property manager to see if special discounts are available for your group before you book.
• Booking websites typically offer guests an option to add trip insurance. Trip insurance, which generally will cost anywhere between 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed vacation time as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance can be a a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for program terms and fees.
• Find a copy of your local Wilmington, NC visitors guide magazine upon checking in. If your rental doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers. In addition to great local information, visitors guides have offers and deals for nearby accommodations, restaurants and tours.

Planning, selecting, and booking a perfect Wilmington, NC rental:

• Select a group leader, choose your dates, and choose a budget.
• Determine how many beds and the configuration your family requires. ?Island Time 1 Block From The Beach? has 1 bedrooms and 1 bathrooms.
• Specific information about bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is normally accessible online. If you don't see them listed, email or call the property manager before you reserve the rental. Remember that most property listings specify maximum guest capacity, which often includes pull-out couches.
• Does your group require special amenities? Most websites include amenity lists and search filters. Filtering by amenity will allow you to quickly find the perfect rental home.
• Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for persons with a disability. Make certain to ask about wheel chair entry, pool lifts and specialized equipment needs.
• If your family is bringing pets, you'll need to find a pet-friendly rental. Request information on breed, weight, and type restrictions. Usually, property managers charge additional pet fees.

Additional considerations:

• Be sure you get the owner's phone number and entry/exit procedures for your rental.
• To make certain that damages are not attributed to your stay, make a record of any problem areas during check in. E-mail the rental manager right away to report any issues. If there is a dispute, having the recorded issues and contact attempts will be helpful.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a hot tub, elevator or washer/dryer. Contact your owner. They are there to help! A brief call prevents a lot of issues.
• Respect the neighborhood. Frequently, adjacent homes are occupied by local residents. Respecting quiet hours and parking policies can make a stay significantly more pleasurable.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Local residents can usually help. Who better to ask where to enjoy a steak with a view, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for BBQ?
• Protect the owner (and your stuff!) by keeping the rental locked up while you are out, just like you would back home.
• Re-check every room of the rental property to confirm that you've packed all personal items on check-out day. Remember to check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden items. Clean out the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Go through the property one final time and scan for damages to contents or the property itself. We recommend inspecting the property with the property manager whenever possible. If the host isn't available, ensure that you take photos and video of the property to record its condition.
• Did you have a wonderful vacation? Most rental home management companies make it easy for guests to provide reviews. If your rental and/or property manager was wonderful, they will likely appreciate your kind words. If anything was defective and they failed to correct it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make it a point as part of your feedback.
