Strategies to get the perfect vacation property experience:

Get the most from your rental home budget:

• Summer months are high season in Wilmington. To get the best value, try shifting your family's Wilmington, NC vacation to the Spring or Fall shoulder seasons. May, September, and October offer pleasant temperatures, less crowded beaches, and reduced traffic.
• Book your vacation home as soon as possible. Rental schedules usually become available a year in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many groups book their Summer vacation rentals during holiday gatherings. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Owners sometimes offer special rates for active duty military and veterans. Remember to ask your host or property manager if special offers are available for your group.
• Booking websites typically offer guests an option to add vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which generally will cost 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed days as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for additional information.
• Many management companies supply Wilmington, NC area visitors guide magazines which will include coupons, either offered independently by local businesses, or through a partnership between the management company and the business itself. You can also find Wilmington, NC visitors guide and coupon books at local gas stations and shopping centers.

Finding the perfect vacation rental in Wilmington:

• Choose a designated group leader, choose your dates, and select a maximum budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and what type of bedroom configuration your group needs. Pelican Retreat ~ Screened-in Porch ~ Outdoor Shower ~ Large Back Yard ~ King has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Precise information about bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is almost always available on booking pages. If you don't see them listed, email the property owner before you reserve the vacation home. Note that most property listings specify the max. guest capacity, which usually includes sofa beds.
• Are you visiting for a specific event or attraction? Use a map search to locate nearby rentals.
• Proper accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for guests that require the use of a wheelchair. Make certain to ask about wheel chair entry, pool lifts and specialized equipment needs.
• Some rentals allow pets, but others don't. Acceptable types of dog or cat, weight and breeds may be restricted, and additional fees may apply. Ask the host about allowable breeds and types before booking.

More considerations for your visit:

• Review arrival and departure procedures before traveling. Take a printed copy, and save the instructions to your smartphone.
• To make sure that damages are not linked to your stay, make note of any problem areas during arrival. Call the rental manager immediately to relay your findings. If there is a dispute, having a record of concerns and contact attempts will be helpful.
• Property managers are there to help! Feel free to ask questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Be respectful. Often, adjacent homes are occupied by permanent residents. Respecting late-night noise limits and parking policies can make a stay significantly more pleasurable.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Locals can frequently help. Who better to ask where to see a beautiful sunrise or sunset, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for BBQ?
• Ensure you protect the owner (and your stuff!) by locking and securing the home when you are gone, just like you would at home.
• Re-check every room of the property to make sure that you've packed all personal items on check-out day. Check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden belongings. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Did your family have a great vacation? Many rental management companies make it easy for customers to provide feedback. If your property and/or property management company was great, they would love to hear about it. If anything was defective and they failed to address it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make it a point as part of your feedback.
