Tips to get the optimal Wilmington, NC vacation property experience:

Finding the best rental home value:

• To find the best value, consider changing your vacation dates to the Spring or Fall shoulder seasons. May, September, and October offer pleasant temperatures, less crowded beaches, and greatly reduced traffic. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, or to reserve a beach front rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during the high season.
• Book your vacation rental as early as possible. Rental schedules often open a year in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many families book their Summer vacation rentals during Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years Eve get-togethers. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Hosts and Property managers sometimes offer special rates for active duty military and veterans. Ask your property manager if special discounts are available for your family.
• Property management companies often offer customers an option to purchase trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which commonly costs 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed time as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for program terms and fees.
• Many management companies supply Wilmington, NC area visitors guides which include money-saving offers, either offered independently by local companies, or by way of a relationship with 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.

You will need to establish what configuration is optimal for your vacation.

• Proper accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for guests with disabilities. .
• Some rental properties allow pets, and others don't. Acceptable types of dog or cat, weight and breeds may be restricted, and additional costs may apply. Ask the host about your furry family members before booking.

Know before you go:

• Get the owner's phone number and check in/check out procedures for your rental.
• To ensure that damages aren't linked to your family's stay, make note of any problem areas during check in. Make contact with the host immediately to report any damages. If there is a dispute about who is responsible, having the recorded problems and contact attempts will be useful.

• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Local residents can usually point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to take kids for a treat, have a great night out, or the best spots for crabbing?
• Keep your rental home locked while you're gone! Don't let burglars ruin your vacation.
• Don't leave anything behind! Before departing, take a walk through the property to confirm you've collected all of your things. Remember to check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden belongings. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Inspect the property a final time and keep an eye out for any damage. We suggest inspecting the property with the host whenever you can. If the property manager is not available, ensure that you take photos of the rental to record its condition at check-out.
• Remember to leave feedback! Hosts rely on excellent ratings to drive more bookings. They'll be grateful for your review. Alternatively, if something wasn't as described, other families will be thankful you shared your experience and help them have the best future vacation.
