Tips and Tricks to get the optimal rental experience:

Sticking to a spending plan:

• 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 reserve their Summer rentals during Christmas and Thanksgiving get-togethers. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Summer time is high season in Carolina Beach. To get the best rental for your budget, we highly recommend reserving in Fall or Spring months. You'll benefit from lower rental rates, better selection, beautiful weather and the absence of giant crowds at popular Wilmington, NC attractions and restaurants.
• Some owners offer discounts for veterans. Ask your property manager if rate reductions are available for your family before you book.
• Management companies and individual rental owners frequently offer customers an option to add trip insurance. Trip insurance, which commonly will cost anywhere between 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed vacation time as a result of medical-related issues or weather, as well as evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for specifics.
• Find a copy of your local Wilmington, NC area magazine upon checking in. If your rental doesn't have one, you can find them at local shops and fuel stations. In addition to great local articles, visitor guide magazines have coupons for local attractions, tours, restaurants, and shops.

Use filters to narrow your search:

• First and foremost, have your group commit to trip dates and a spending budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and the configuration your family requires. Pounder's Penthouse has 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts is almost always available on booking websites. If you don't see them listed, contact the property manager before you book your home. Note that most listings specify maximum guest capacity, which typically includes pull out couches in living rooms.
• Some properties allow pets, and others don't. Acceptable types of family pet, weight and breeds may be restricted, and added charges may apply. Ask the host about allowable pet guidelines before booking.
• Are you visiting for a specific event or attraction? If so, use a map search to locate nearby rentals.
• Suitable accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for guests with disabilities. Confirm all necessary amenities are included before booking

More tips for your visit:

• Take a copy of the property manager's contact number and check in/check out procedures for your rental home.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a hot tub, intercom or washer/dryer. Contact your property manager. They are there to help! A brief text message can prevent quite a few issues.
• Ensure you protect the owner (and your stuff!) by locking the property while you are away, just like you would at home.
• To make certain damages aren't attributed to your family's stay, make a record of any problem areas when you arrive. E-mail the property manager immediately to report any damages. If there is a dispute, having a record of issues and contact attempts will be valuable.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like obnoxious vacationers bothering your peaceful home life. Use the golden rule for common sense. If they like you, locals might even recommend great local food and scenic spots you would have never otherwise known!
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Neighbors can usually help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to charter a fishing boat, have a great night out, or the best spots for crabbing?
• Re-check every room of the rental property to make sure that you've packed everything at departure. Make sure to check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden items. Clean out the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Go through the rental a final time and scan for damage. We suggest walking through with the property manager whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the host is not available, take video and pictures of the rental to record its condition.
• Leave a review! Property owners rely on good feedback to stimulate more reservations. They'll be grateful for your feedback. Alternatively, if something wasn't as described, other vacationers will will be grateful for your feedback and help them have the best future vacation. Remember to be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the manager could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded quickly to solve it.
