Tips to get the best Wrightsville Beach vacation home experience:

Finding the best rental home value:

• Summertime is the most expensive season in the Wilmington, NC area. Reserve your vacation home in the Spring or Fall to get the benefit of beautiful weather while saving money and avoiding crowded roads, restaurants, and activities. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Wilmington, NC vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday near the ocean? Christmas, Thanksgiving, and New Years Eve are great times to gather with family and friends at the beach.
• In the Wilmington, NC area, The sooner you can book, the better your selection will be. The best properties are booked very early. Reserving your vacation rental up to 12 months before your vacation dates is recommended. Holidays such as Christmas and Thanksgiving are excellent times to search for and reserve your rental home.
• Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property management company or host whether your vacationing group qualifies for a reduced rate.
• Booking websites often offer renters an option to purchase vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which generally costs between 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed vacation time as a result of medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as ensuing additional evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for additional information.
• Find a copy of your local Wilmington, NC visitors guide upon arrival. If your rental doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local grocery stores and visitor centers. In addition to great information, visitors guides have money saving offers on nearby accommodations, restaurants and tours.

Use filters to narrow your rental search:

• First and foremost, have your family decide on dates and a budget.
• Decide how many beds and the bed configuration you need. Lovely Beach Cottage has 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms.
• Specific information regarding bedrooms and bed counts & types is commonly accessible on booking websites. If not, reach out to the property owner before you reserve the vacation property. Remember that most properties list the max. guest capacity, which usually includes pull-out couches and bunk beds. You will need to determine what bed configuration is right for your vacation group.
• Visiting for a single attraction? Try a map search to find nearby rentals.
• Proper accessibility can make or break a vacation for the less-mobile. Confirm all necessary amenities are available and included before booking.
• If your family is traveling with pets, filter your search for a pet-friendly rental. Request details on breed, size, and type restrictions. Note that some property managers charge pet deposits and fees.

More tips for your visit:

• Be sure you get the property manager's phone number and entry/exit procedures for your rental property. Put the manager's contact information in your smartphone.
• Note any damages to the property at check in, and immediately e-mail them to the property manager. We specifically recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain built-in time stamps that can be beneficial if a dispute is filed.
• Hosts are available to help! Feel free to ask any questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Respect the neighborhood. Often times, adjacent homes are filled by local residents. Respecting quiet hours and parking regulations is the right thing to do.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Locals can usually help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to enjoy a steak with a view, have a great night out, or the best spots for fine dining?
• Protect the property owner (and your stuff!) by locking the rental while you are gone, just like you would back home.
• Double-check the vacation property to make sure that you've packed all personal items at check-out. Remember to check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden belongings. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Walk through the rental one final time and look for any damage. We recommend walking through with the property manager whenever possible. If the host is not available, remember to take photos of the property to record its condition.
• After your trip, leave feedback! Property managers rely on excellent reviews to drive future bookings. They'll be thankful for your review. Alternatively, if something wasn't right, other vacationers will be thankful you shared your review find their best vacation rental. Be fair with your review. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the owner could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded reasonably to solve it.
