Tricks and tips for getting the perfect vacation property experience:

Sticking to a budget:

• The sooner your group can book, the easier your search will be. The best rental homes are booked very early. Reserving your vacation rental up to twelve months before your vacation dates is recommended. Christmas, Thanksgiving and New Years Eve are excellent times to plan and book your rental.
• To get the largest rental for your budget, we suggest reserving in the Fall or Spring shoulder seasons. You'll enjoy lower rates, better selection, gorgeous weather and the absence of giant crowds at local restaurants, tours, and activities. Many vacationers use this method to find larger homes within budget, or to reserve a beach front vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable during June, July, and August.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property manager whether your family qualifies for a price reduction or discount.
• Property managers often offer customers an option to purchase vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which normally costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed vacation time as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel stay or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance might be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for details.
• Many property management companies and vacation rental houses supply Wilmington, NC area travel guides which often include special deals, either offered directly by local companies, or by way of a relationship between the 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.

Planning, selecting, and booking your prefectvacation home:

• First and foremost, have your group choose dates and a spending budget.
• Note the number bedrooms and the configuration your family needs. PalmTreeHouse has 1 bedrooms and 1 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our rentals search.
• Precise information about bedrooms and bed types is normally accessible on booking pages. If they are not listed, email or call the property owner before you reserve the property. Note that most properties list the maximum guest capacity, which typically includes pull-out couches and bunk beds. You'll need to establish what configuration is optimal for your vacation.
• If your family is traveling with pets, you'll need to book a property that allows animals. Request information on breed, weight, and type requirements. Some property managers require additional pet deposits and fees.
• Visiting for a specific attraction or event? If so, use a map search to find nearby properties.
• Suitable accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for those with limited mobility. Confirm all necessary amenities are included before reserving a rental

More considerations:

• Add the owner's phone number to your phone. Print and take a copy of arrival/departure procedures.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a hot tub, intercom or WIFI setup. Contact your owner. They are there to help! A brief phone call can prevent lots of concerns.
• Ensure you protect the owner (and your things!) by locking and securing the home while you are out, just like you would back home.
• At Check-in, note any damages to the rental property and immediately contact the property manager. Keep records of all coorespondence.
• Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking rules can make a stay more pleasurable. Be a good neighbor. You'll increase your chance to make some new local friends, and resident neighbors are an incredible resource to find the best local spots.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Local residents can frequently help. Who better to ask where to find the best bike paths, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for shopping?
• Just before checking out, take a final walk-through to confirm you haven't forget any personal items. Make sure to check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden belongings. Clean out the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Go through the property a final time and keep an eye out for any damage. We recommend inspecting the property with the property manager whenever you can. If the manager is not available, take photographs of the rental to record its condition.
• Remember to leave a review! Hosts rely on excellent ratings to compel future bookings. They'll be grateful for your review. Alternatively, if something wasn't right, other families will will be grateful for your review and help them have the best future vacation. Please be fair with your feedback If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the manager had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded expeditiously to solve it.
