Strategies for getting the best Wilmington, NC vacation rental experience:

When to book & When to go:

• Summer time is high season in the Wilmington, NC area. To find the best value, shift your vacation to the Spring or Fall shoulder seasons. May, September, and even October offer warm weather, , and reduced traffic. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, or to book a beach front vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during the Summer.
• Book your vacation rental as early as possible. Rental schedules often become available twelve months in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many families reserve their Summer vacation rentals during Winter holiday gatherings. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Some property managers offer discounts for veterans. Make sure to check with your property manager to see if rate reductions are available for your group before you book.
• Booking websites typically offer guests an option to purchase vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which costs 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed trip time as a result of medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as evacuation costs or charges, such as an unanticipated hotel or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance can be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for specifics.
• Find a copy of your local Wilmington, NC visitors guide magazine upon arrival. If your rental doesn't have one, you can find them at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers. In addition to great local stories, visitors guide magazines have coupons for nearby tours and attractions.

Narrow your rental Search:

• Choose your dates and max budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and what type of bedroom configuration you need. Salt, Sand and Sudds - Lovely home with POOL! has 6 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms.
• Specific information regarding bedrooms and bed counts is often accessible on booking pages. If you don't see them listed, reach out to the property management company before you reserve the home. Remember that most listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which usually includes pull-out couches and bunk beds. You will need to establish what bed configuration is best for your vacation group.
• Are you visiting for a single attraction or event? If so, use a map search to find nearby properties.
• Proper accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for persons with a disability. Confirm all required amenities are available and included before booking.
• Some rentals allow pets, but others don't. Allowable types of pet, size and breeds may be restricted, and added fees may apply. Ask the property management company about pets before booking.

Some things to know before you go:

• Store the owner's information in your smartphone and wallet.
• Note any issues with the property upon arrival, and immediately e-mail them to the property manager. We especially recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain time stamps that can be valuable if a dispute is filed.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a garage door opener, intercom or kitchen appliance. Contact your owner. They are there to help! A brief text message prevents lots of difficulties.
• Be a good neighbor. Often times, surrounding homes are filled by local residents. Respecting noise limits and parking policies reduces conflict and allows everyone to enjoy their day.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Residents can typically point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to find the best seashells, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fishing?
• Protect the owner (and your stuff!) by locking the rental while you are gone, just like you would at home.
• Upon check-out, take a final walk-through to confirm you haven't forget any personal items. Make sure to check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden treasure. Clean out the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Go through the property one final time and scan for any damage. We recommend walking through with the property manager whenever you can. If the host isn't available, ensure that you take photos and video of the property to record its condition at check-out.
• Did your group have a wonderful stay? Many rental websites make it easy for guests to provide comments. If your property and/or property management company was great, they would love to hear it. If anything was defective and they failed to correct it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make it a point as part of your comments.
