How to find the best rental home experience:

Finding your perfect vacation home:

• Reserve your vacation rental as early as possible. Rental schedules usually become available 12 months in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many families book their Summer vacations during Winter holiday gatherings. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Reserving a rental home in the Fall or Spring shoulder seasons is our favorite way to save money on your vacation rental. Rental rates are lower, and you'll find a better selection of acceptable properties. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Wilmington, NC vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday on the coast? Thanksgiving and Christmas are great times to gather with friends and family at the beach.
• Owners sometimes offer discounts or promotional rates for veterans and active duty military. Check with your host or property manager to see if special discounts are available for your family before you book.
• Booking websites often offer customers an option to purchase vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which usually will cost anywhere between 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed trip time as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance can be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for specifics.
• Many property management companies supply Wilmington, NC area visitor guides which often include money-saving deals, either offered independently by local businesses, or through a relationship between the rental management company and the business itself. You can also find visitors guide and coupon books at local gas stations and shopping centers.

How to pick the best rental in the Wilmington, NC area:

• Select a designated group leader, choose your dates, and select a maximum budget.
• Decide how many beds and the bed configuration you need. Ocean views from the large deck upstairs; screened in porch and private crofter has 4 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms.
• Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts is commonly available online. If not, email the property owner before you book your home. Remember that most listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which often includes sofa beds. You will need to work out what is best for your family.
• If your family is bringing pets, you'll need to book a pet-friendly rental. Ask for information on breed, weight, and type requirements. Usually, hosts charge pet deposits and fees.
• Are you visiting for a specific attraction? Try a map search to find nearby properties.
• Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for the less-mobile. Remember to confirm all required amenities are available and included before booking

Tips to have a wonderful stay:

• We recommend storing the owner's information in your smartphone and wallet.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a fireplace, intercom or kitchen appliance. Contact your property manager. They are there to help! A brief call can prevent lots of concerns.
• Ensure you protect the rental owner (and your stuff!) by locking the property while you are away, just like you would at home.
• To ensure that no damages are attributed to your family's stay, note any problem areas upon your arrival. E-mail the property manager right away to document any pre-existing damages. If there is a dispute about who is responsible, having a record of issues and contact attempts will be valuable.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like obnoxious visitors disrupting your home life. Use the golden rule for best judgement. Happy residents may even recommend great beaches and places you would have never otherwise known about!
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Locals can typically help. Who better to ask where to order the best nachos, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for bird watching?
• Just prior to departing, complete a final walk-through to confirm you didn't forget any personal items. Remember to check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden belongings. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Did you have a great stay? Most rental management companies make it easy for customers to provide comments. If your property and/or property manager was great, they would love to hear it. If anything was defective and they failed to correct it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make a note as part of your feedback.
