Our top Vacation rental home tips and tricks:

How to get the best rental value:

• To get the best value, shift your family's Wilmington, NC trip dates to the Spring or Fall seasons. May, September, and even October offer warmer weather, less crowded beaches, and greatly reduced traffic. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, or to reserve a beach front rental that would otherwise be unavailable during June, July, and August.
• Book your rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules usually become available a year in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many families book their Summer vacations during holiday get-togethers. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Some owners offer rate reductions for veterans and active duty military. Check with your host or property manager to see if special discounts are available for your family.
• Management companies and individual rental owners usually offer customers an option to add trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which usually will cost between 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed trip time as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for details.
• Many rental management companies supply Wilmington, NC area visitors guides which include money-saving offers, either offered independently by local companies, or by way of a relationship with the management company and the business itself. You can also find visitors guide and coupon books at local gas stations and shopping centers.

Choosing and booking a perfectrental:

• Start by having your family commit to a vacation week and a max budget.
• Note the number bedrooms and the configuration your family requires. Charming and comfortable historic beach cottage! has 5 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed types is often available online. If you don't see them listed, email or call the property manager before reserving the rental. Note that most listings specify maximum guest capacity, which typically includes pull-out couches.
• Looking for special amenities? Most websites include amenity lists and search filters. Filtering by amenity will allow you to quickly find the best rental.
• Proper accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for the less-mobile. Remember to confirm all necessary amenities are available before reserving a rental
• If your family is traveling with pets, you must book a rental that allows animals. Ask for information on breed, size, and type restrictions. Note that some property managers require additional pet deposits and fees.

More considerations:

• Review check in & check out procedures before leaving home. Take a printed copy, and add a note with the instructions to your phone.
• Make a record of any issues with the property during check in, and immediately e-mail them to the host. We especially recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain built-in time stamps that are valuable if a dispute is filed.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a fireplace, A/V setup or kitchen appliance. Contact your host. They are there to help! A brief text message prevents quite a few issues.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like disrespectful visitors disrupting your life at home. Practice the golden rule for best judgement. If they like you, locals might even recommend great restaurants and scenic spots you would've never otherwise known!
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Local residents can typically help. Who better to ask where to go for the best drinks, have a great night out, or the best spots for shopping?
• Protect the rental owner (and your things!) by locking the property when you are out, just like you would at home.
• Double-check every room of the property to make sure that you've packed all of your belongings on check-out day. Check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden treasure. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Inspect the property a final time and scan for any damage. We recommend walking through with the property manager whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the property manager is not available, take video of the rental to record its condition.
• Did your family have a fantastic time? Many rental websites make it easy for customers to provide comments. If your rental and/or property manager was terrific, they would love to hear about it. If anything was amiss 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 review.
