Tips and Tricks to get the best rental experience:

Sticking to a spending budget:

• Reserve your vacation home as soon as possible. Rental schedules generally open 12 months in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many groups book their Summer vacation rentals during Christmas and Thanksgiving get-togethers. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Summertime is high season in the Wilmington, NC area. Booking in the Spring or Fall is our best tip for saving money on your vacation. Rental rates are lower, and you'll find a better selection of acceptable homes. Many vacationers use this method to find larger homes within budget, or to book a beach front rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during the Summer. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Wilmington, NC vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday near the ocean? Thanksgiving and Christmas are great times to gather with family and friends at your favorite beach.
• Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective vacation rental company or host whether your group qualifies for a discount.
• Property management companies often offer renters an option to buy vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which commonly will cost anywhere between 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed time as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance might be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for specifics.
• Often, rental management companies supply Wilmington, NC area visitors guide magazines which include coupons, either offered directly by local businesses, or by way of a partnership between the rental management company and the business itself. You can also find visitors guide and coupon books at local gas stations and shopping centers.

Narrow your Search:

• Choose vacation dates and budget.
• Decide how many bedrooms and the bed configuration your family needs. Charming and comfortable historic beach cottage! has 5 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms.
• Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is generally accessible online. If not, contact the property owner before reserving the rental. Note that most property listings specify maximum guest capacity, which usually includes sofa beds.
• If your family is traveling with pets, you'll need to book a pet-friendly property. Request specifics on breed, weight, and type restrictions. Be aware that some property managers require additional pet deposits and fees.
• Are you visiting for a specific event or attraction? Try a map search to locate nearby properties.
• Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for the less-mobile. Confirm all required amenities are available and included before booking.

More considerations for your visit:

• Put the manager's information in your smartphone.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a garage door opener, A/V setup or appliance. Contact your host. They are there to help! A brief call can prevent quite a few concerns.
• Ensure you protect the property owner (and your stuff!) by locking and securing the home when you are gone, just like you would back home.
• To ensure that damages aren't linked to your family's visit, make note of any problem areas upon check in. E-mail the property manager immediately to relay any pre-existing damages. If there is a dispute, having the recorded problems and contact attempts will be helpful.
• Be respectful. Frequently, nearby homes are filled by local residents. Respecting noise limits and parking regulations can make a stay significantly more pleasurable.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Residents can usually help. Who better to ask where to see a beautiful sunrise or sunset, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fine dining?
• Re-check every room of the vacation property to make sure that you've packed all belongings at departure. Re-check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden belongings. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Inspect the property one final time and keep an eye out for any damage. We advise walking through with the host whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the property manager isn't available, remember to take photographs of the property to record its condition.
• Did your family have a fantastic time? Many rental home management companies make it easy for customers to provide reviews. If your property and/or property manager was terrific, they will likely appreciate your kind words. If anything was defective and they failed to fix it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make it a point as part of your comments.
