Tips and Tricks to get the best vacation home experience:

When to go & When to book:

• June, July, and August are the most expensive months in Bald Head Island. Booking in the Fall or Spring shoulder seasons is our best tip for saving money on your vacation home. Rates are lower, and you'll find a better selection of suitable properties. Many vacationers use this method to find larger homes within budget, or to book a beach front rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during the high season.
• The earlier your group can book a vacation rental, the better your selection will be. The best properties are booked very early. Booking your vacation home six - twelve months before your travel dates is recommended. Holidays such as Christmas and Thanksgiving are excellent times to plan and book your vacation home.
• Some hosts offer rate reductions for veterans and active duty military. Ask your host or property manager if special offers are available for your group.
• Booking websites typically offer renters an option to obtain trip insurance. Trip insurance, which usually will cost you anywhere between 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed vacation time as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel stay or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance can be a a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for specifics.
• Look for your local Wilmington, NC visitors guide upon checking in. If your rental home doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local grocery stores and visitor centers. In addition to great information, visitor guides contain offers and deals for local tours, shops, and attractions.

Finding the perfect vacation rental in Bald Head Island:

• Select a group lead, choose your dates, and select a maximum budget.
• Note the number bedrooms and the bed configuration your family needs. Luxury Home with Private Saltwater Pool BHI and Shoals Clubs has 5 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our vacation rental search.
• Specific information regarding bedrooms and bed counts & types is usually accessible online. If not, reach out to the host before you book the vacation property. Note that most properties list the maximum guest capacity, which usually includes sofa beds and bunks.
• If there's a particular Wilmington, NC attraction you love, search for properties that are either close by, or those that cater especially to your needs.
• Appropriate accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for guests with disabilities. Confirm all necessary amenities are included before reserving a rental.
• Some rental properties allow pets, and some don't. Acceptable types of dog or cat, size and breeds may be restricted, and added costs may apply. Ask the property management company about your furry family members before booking.

During your stay:

• Get the owner's phone number and entry/exit procedures for your . Put the host's information in your smartphone.
• To ensure that damages aren't linked to your stay, record any problem areas during arrival. Make contact with the rental manager immediately to relay your findings. If there is a dispute, having the recorded concerns and contact attempts will be helpful.
• Property managers are great sources of help! Don't be shy to ask any questions during your stay.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like disrespectful vacationers bothering your peaceful home. Practice the golden rule for common sense. Happy residents may even recommend great beaches and places you would've never otherwise known!
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Locals can usually help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to find the fresh catch of the day, have a great night out, or the best spots for fine dining?
• Protect the property owner (and your things!) by locking and securing the home while you are away, just like you would at home.
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before departing, walk through the property to confirm you've collected all belongings. Make sure to check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden treasure. Clean out the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Please make sure to walk through the rental a final time and scan for damage. We recommend inspecting the property with the property manager whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the manager isn't available, take pictures of the rental to record its condition.
• After your trip, leave a review! Property owners rely on good reviews to stimulate new reservations. They'll be grateful for your review. Alternatively, if something wasn't as described, other vacationers will be thankful you shared your feedback and help them have the best future vacation. Remember to be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the host had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded expeditiously to remedy it.
