How to find the best Carolina Beach vacation home experience:

Finding the best rental value:

• In the Wilmington, NC area, The earlier you can book a vacation rental, the easier your search will be. The most desirable rental properties are booked early. Reserving your vacation property up to 12 months before your vacation is recommended. Holiday gatherings are excellent times to plan and reserve your rental home.
• June, July, and August are the most expensive months in coastal NC. Reserving a rental home in Spring or Fall is an excellent way to save money on your vacation rental. Rates are lower, and you'll find a better selection of acceptable homes. Many vacationers use this strategy to find larger homes within budget, or to reserve a beach front rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during the high season.
• Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property manager or host if your family qualifies for a reduced rate.
• Property management companies frequently offer guests an option to buy trip insurance. Trip insurance, which costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed time as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance can be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for details.
• Look for your local Wilmington, NC visitors guide magazine when you check-in. If your rental doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local shops and fuel stations. In addition to great local stories, visitors guides contain money saving offers on nearby tours, shops, and attractions.

Filter your rental search:

• Select a designated group leader, select your vacation week, and select a spending budget.
• Decide how many bedrooms and the bed configuration your family needs. Little Blue Cottage at CB - 2 Blocks From Beach has 1 bedrooms and 1 bathrooms.
• Specific information regarding bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is usually accessible on booking pages. Otherwise, contact the property management company before reserving the property. Remember that most properties list maximum guest capacity, which oftentimes includes pull-out couches. You will need to establish what is best for your trip.
• If your group is vacationing with pets, you'll need to find a pet-friendly property. Make sure to ask for specifics on breed, size, and type restrictions. Often, hosts charge pet deposits and fees.
• Visiting for a specific attraction or event? Try a map search to find nearby rentals.
• Appropriate accessibility can make or break a vacation for guests that require the use of a wheelchair. Confirm all required amenities are available before reserving a rental.

Tips for your stay:

• Add the host's contact information to your smartphone. Take a copy of arrival/departure procedures.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a fireplace, television set or WIFI setup. Contact your property manager. They are there to help! A brief text message can prevent quite a few concerns.
• Keep the property locked while you are away! Don't let burglars ruin your vacation.
• To make certain no damages are linked to your family's stay, inspect the property for any problem areas during arrival. Speak to the host right away to relay any issues. If there is a dispute, having a record of concerns and contact attempts will be very helpful.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like disagreeable vacationers bothering your peaceful neighborhood. Use the golden rule for common sense. If they like you, locals might even recommend great local food and places you would've never otherwise known!
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Locals can usually help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to grab the best tacos, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fine dining?
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before you drive away, walk through the property to make sure you've collected all of your things. Re-check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden belongings. Clean out the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Walk through the property one final time and look for any damage. We advise inspecting the property with the host whenever possible. If the host is not available, take video of the property to record its condition at check-out.
• Did your family have a great time? Most rental websites make it easy for travelers to provide feedback. If your rental and/or property management company was fantastic, they always love to hear your praise. If anything was out of order and they failed to address it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make a note as part of your comments.
