Carolina Beach rental booking tips:

When to visit & When to reserve a Carolina Beach rental home:

• June, July, and August are the most expensive months in coastal NC. Booking in the Fall or Spring is one of our best tips for saving money on your vacation. Rates are lower, and you'll find a larger selection of desirable homes. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, or to reserve a beach front vacation rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during the Summer.
• The sooner your group can reserve a vacation home, the easier your search will be. The best rental homes are reserved very early. Reserving your vacation rental up to twelve months before your vacation dates is recommended. Holidays such as Christmas and Thanksgiving are excellent times to plan and reserve your vacation rental.
• Hosts sometimes offer discounts for veterans. Make sure to check with your property manager to see if special offers are available for your family before you book.
• Management companies and individual rental owners frequently offer customers an option to obtain trip insurance. Trip insurance, which costs 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed trip time as a result of medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance can be a a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for additional information.
• Often, property management companies supply Wilmington, NC area visitor guides which will include money-saving offers, either offered directly by local companies, or by way of a partnership between the rental management company and the business itself. You can also find Wilmington, NC visitors guide and coupon books at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers.

• Precise information about bedrooms and bed counts & types is almost always accessible on booking pages. If they are not listed, contact the property management company before you book your home. Remember that most listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which frequently includes sofa beds and bunks.

• Proper accessibility can make or break a vacation for the less-mobile. Remember to confirm all required amenities are available before booking

More considerations for your visit:

• Get the owner's phone number and check in/check out procedures for your . We recommend storing the manager's information in your smartphone.
• During check-in, make note of any damages to the property and immediately alert the property manager. Record all coorespondence.
• Property managers are there to help! Feel free to ask any questions during your stay.
• Be respectful of your neighbors. Often times, adjacent homes are occupied by permanent residents. Respecting late-night noise limits and parking regulations can make a stay significantly more pleasurable.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Local residents can usually help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to order the best nachos, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fishing?
• Lock your rental home while you're out. Protect your property!
• Don't leave anything behind! Before departing, take a walk through the property to make sure you've collected everything. Re-check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden treasure. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Go through the property a final time and scan for any damage. We advise inspecting the property with the host whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the manager isn't available, ensure that you take photos of the rental to record its condition at check-out.
• Remember to leave feedback! Property owners rely on good feedback to compel new bookings. They'll be thankful for your feedback. Alternatively, if something went wrong, other vacationing families will be thankful you shared your feedback find their best vacation rental. Be fair with your review. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the host had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded expeditiously to remedy it.
