Tricks and tips for getting the perfect rental home experience:

Cost saving strategies:

• Summer is the most expensive season in the Wilmington, NC area. To find the largest rental home for your budget, we highly recommend reserving in the Fall or Spring shoulder seasons. You'll enjoy lower rates, greater selection, warm weather and the absence of large crowds at restaurants, beaches, and activities.
• The sooner your group can reserve a vacation home, the easier your search will be. The most desirable vacation homes are booked very early. Booking your vacation home 6-12 months before your travel dates is recommended. Holidays such as Christmas and Thanksgiving are excellent times to search for and reserve your vacation home.
• Some property management companies offer promotional rates for veterans. Make sure to check with your property manager to see if discounts are available for your group before you book.
• Property management companies often offer guests an option to purchase vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which commonly will cost between 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed days as a result of medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance might be a a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for additional information.
• Look for your local visitors guide upon arrival. If your rental property doesn't have one, you can find them at local grocery stores and visitor centers. In addition to great local information, visitor guide magazines contain money saving offers on local tours and attractions.

Note that most properties list the maximum guest capacity, which oftentimes includes sofa beds. You will need to establish what configuration is right for your vacation.
• Looking for unique amenities? Most websites include amenity lists and search filters.
• Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for persons with a disability. .
• If your group is traveling with pets, you must book a pet-friendly vacation rental. Request details on breed, size, and type restrictions. Some property owners charge pet deposits and fees.

Know before you go:

• Review check in & check out procedures before traveling. Take a printed copy, and add a note with the directions to your phone.
• Upon arrival, note any issues with the rental property and immediately contact the property manager. Keep records of all coorespondence.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a fireplace, elevator or thermostat. Contact your owner. They are there to help! A brief call can prevent quite a few problems.
• Be respectful of your neighbors. Often, nearby homes are filled by local residents. Respecting noise limits and parking rules reduces conflict and allows everyone to enjoy their day.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Neighbors can usually help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to launch your kayaks, have a great night out, or the best spots for fine dining?
• Lock your rental home while you are out. Protect the owner's property and your stuff!
• Double-check the rental property to make sure that you've packed everything on check-out day. Re-check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden belongings. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Document the condition of the property at check-out. We recommend taking a video during your final walk-through.
• Leave feedback! Hosts rely on excellent feedback to stimulate future bookings. They'll be much obliged for your feedback. Alternatively, if something wasn't right, other vacationers will be thankful you shared your experience and help them have the best future vacation. Be fair with your review. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the manager had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded expeditiously to remedy it.
