How to get the best Wilmington, NC rental home experience:

Cost saving strategies:

• In the Wilmington, NC area, The earlier your group can book, the easier your search will be. The best vacation homes are reserved very early. Booking your rental property 6-12 months before your travel dates is recommended. Holiday gatherings are excellent times to plan and book your vacation rental.
• Summer months are high season in Oak Island. To find the best value, change your group's vacation to the Spring or Fall shoulder seasons. May, September, and October offer warm temperatures, less crowded beaches, and reduced traffic. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Wilmington, NC vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday on the coast? Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with family and friends at your favorite beach.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective host whether your family qualifies for a reduced rate.
• Booking websites often offer their guests an option to add vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which normally will cost you between 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed trip time as a result of medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance might be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for specifics.
• Find a copy of your local visitors guide when you arrive at the rental property. If your rental doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers. In addition to great articles, visitors guide magazines have coupons for local accommodations and attractions.

Use filters to narrow your search:

• Begin by selecting trip dates and a maximum budget.
• Note the number bedrooms and the bed configuration your group needs. Bring Your Furry Family Members! Just Minutes From The Beach - Beach Gear, Bikes and Char. Grill has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Specific information about bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is often available online. If you don't see them listed, reach out to the host before booking the property. Remember that most property listings specify maximum guest capacity, which frequently includes sofa beds. You will need to work out what is optimal for your trip.
• If your group is bringing pets, you must book a property that allows animals. Request specifics on breed, size, and type restrictions. Be aware that some hosts charge pet deposits and fees.
• Is your family looking for specific amenities? Most rental search websites include amenity lists and search filters. Amenity filters help you quickly remove less-optimal properties.
• Proper accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for guests that require the use of a wheelchair. Remember to confirm all required amenities are available and included before reserving a rental

Considerations for your stay:

• We recommend storing the owner's contact information in your smartphone.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a fireplace, television set or kitchen appliance. Contact your host. They are there to help! A brief call can prevent quite a few problems.
• Ensure you protect the rental owner (and your things!) by locking and securing the home while you are out, just like you would back home.
• To make sure damages are not attributed to your visit, inspect the property for any problem areas upon check in. text the host immediately to relay your findings. If there is a dispute about legal responsibility later, having the recorded concerns and contact attempts will be valuable.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like loud visitors disrupting your peaceful neighborhood. Practice the golden rule for best judgement. If they like you, locals might even recommend great beaches and scenic spots you would've not otherwise known about!
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Neighbors can typically help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to find the best seashells, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for crabbing?
• Double-check the rental property to make sure that you've packed all belongings at check-out. Make sure to check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden items. Clean out the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Please make sure to walk through the rental one final time and keep an eye out for any damage. We recommend inspecting the property with the property manager whenever possible. If the manager isn't available, remember to take photographs of the rental to record its condition at check-out.
• Did your family have a excellent vacation? Many rental home management companies make it easy for travelers to provide reviews. If your property and/or host was terrific, they always love to hear your praise. If anything was wrong and they failed to address it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make it a point as part of your review.
