Our top Rental home tips and tricks:

When to visit & When to reserve a Wilmington, NC rental home:

The earlier you can book a vacation home, the easier your search will be. The most desirable vacation rentals are booked early. Reserving your rental home up to 12 months before your travel dates is recommended. Christmas, Thanksgiving and New Years Eve are excellent times to plan and book your rental property.
June, July, and August are high season in Carolina Beach. To get the most suitable rental home for your budget, we recommend booking in the Spring or Fall. You'll enjoy lower rental rates, greater selection, gorgeous weather and the absence of large crowds at the beach and popular attractions. Many vacationers use this method to find larger homes within budget, or to reserve an oceanfront rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during the Summer months. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Wilmington, NC vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation on the coast? Thanksgiving and Christmas are great times to gather with friends and family at your favorite beach.
Owners sometimes offer discounts for veterans. Ask your host or property manager if special offers are available for your group.
Management companies and individual rental owners frequently offer customers an option to purchase vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which normally costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any days missed as a result of medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance can be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for program terms and fees.
Many property management companies supply Wilmington, NC area travel guide magazines that include coupons, either offered independently by local businesses, or through a relationship between the property management company and the business itself. You can also find Wilmington, NC area magazine and coupon books at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers.

Use filters to search efficiently:

Select your vacation dates and budget.
Determine how many bedrooms and the configuration your group requires. New! Condo with Dock + Pool has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
Specific information regarding bedrooms and bed types is usually accessible on booking pages. Otherwise, email or call the host before you reserve the home. Note that most properties list the max. guest capacity, which oftentimes includes pull out couches in living rooms.
If your group is vacationing with pets, you must reserve a rental that allows animals. Get specifics on breed, weight, and type requirements. Be aware that some hosts charge additional pet fees.
If there's a specific Wilmington, NC beach you are enamored with, browse rentals that are either close by, or those that cater to your requirements.
Proper accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for guests with disabilities. .

More tips for your stay:

Be sure you get the property manager's contact number and check in/check out procedures for your rental home.
Property managers are great sources of help! Feel free to ask questions during your stay.
Protect the rental owner (and your stuff!) by locking the rental when you are out, just like you would at home.
Upon check-in, record any issues with the property and immediately contact the host. Keep records of all coorespondence.
Respect your neighbors. Often, nearby homes are occupied by permanent residents. Respecting quiet hours and parking regulations is the right thing to do.
Don't forget to... Ask a local! Neighbors can usually help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to book the best tours, have a great night out, or the best spots for bird watching?
Just prior to departing, take a final walk-through to confirm you didn't forget anything. Check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden items. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
Record a video to document the condition of the property.
After your trip, leave feedback! Property managers rely on good feedback to compel more reservations. They'll be much obliged for your feedback. Alternatively, if something wasn't right, other vacationing families will be thankful you shared your review and help them have the best future vacation. 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 quickly to solve it.
