Tips for getting the perfect Wilmington, NC vacation rental experience:

Get the most from your vacation rental budget:

• Reserve your vacation rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules usually become available twelve months in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many groups book their Summer rental homes during holiday gatherings. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Summertime is high season in the Wilmington, NC area. To get the best value, consider changing your vacation week to the Spring or Fall months. May, September, and October offer warmer temperatures, less crowded beaches, and reduced traffic. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, or to reserve an oceanfront vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable during the Summer months.
• Property managers sometimes offer special rates for active duty military and veterans. Ask your host or property manager if special offers are available for your family.
• Booking websites typically offer guests an option to buy vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which costs between 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed time as a result of medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel stay or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for specifics.
• Find a copy of your local Wilmington, NC area magazine upon arrival. If your rental doesn't have one, you can find them at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers. In addition to great local information, visitor guide magazines have money saving offers on nearby attractions, tours, restaurants, and shops.

Filter your rental search:

• Start by choosing your trip dates and a max budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and the bed configuration your family needs. Cozy Oak Island House < 1 Mi to Beaches! has 5 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is often accessible on booking websites. Otherwise, call the property management company before you reserve the rental. Remember that most property listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which frequently includes sofa beds. You'll need to determine what is best for your group.
• If your family is traveling with pets, filter your search for a pet-friendly property. Ask for details on breed, size, and type restrictions. Some hosts require additional pet deposits and fees.
• Are you looking for special amenities? Most websites include search filters with amenity lists. Amenity filters help you quickly remove less-optimal properties.
• Proper accessibility can make or break a vacation for those with limited mobility. Confirm all necessary amenities are available and included before booking

Advice for a smooth stay:

• Review arrival and departure procedures before traveling. Take a printed copy, and save the directions to your smartphone.
• Property managers are there to help! Feel free to ask any questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Lock your vacation home while you are out. Protect your property!
• Note any damages to the rental during check in, and immediately contact the property manager. We specifically recommend e-mails and text messages, as they usually contain built-in time stamps that are valuable if a dispute arises.
• Respecting quiet hours and parking restrictions can make a stay more pleasurable. You will enhance your chance to make some new local friends, and resident neighbors are often a terrific resource to find the best local restaurants, beaches, and hangouts.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Residents can usually help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to find the best seashells, have a great night out, or the best spots for crabbing?
• Double-check the property to make sure that you've packed everything at check-out. Remember to check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden treasure. Clean the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Did you have a wonderful vacation? Most rental home management companies make it easy for guests to provide feedback. If your rental and/or property manager was wonderful, they will likely appreciate your kind words. If anything was amiss and they failed to fix it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make it a point as part of your feedback.
