Tips and Tricks to get the best vacation property experience:

Sticking to a rental home budget:

• June, July, and August are high season in Holden Beach. To get the best value, try shifting your vacation dates to the Spring or Fall shoulder seasons. May, September, and October offer warmer temperatures, fewer crowds, and reduced traffic. Many vacationers use this method to find larger homes within budget, or to reserve a beach front vacation rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during the Summer months. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Wilmington, NC vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday near the ocean? Thanksgiving and Christmas are great times to gather with friends and family at the beach.
• The sooner your group can reserve a vacation rental, the better your selection will be. The most desirable rental homes are booked very early. Reserving your rental property 6-12 months before your vacation is recommended. Christmas, Thanksgiving and New Years Eve are excellent times to search for and reserve your vacation rental.
• Some owners offer discounts for veterans. Remember to ask your property manager if discounts are available for your group before you book.
• Property managers typically offer their guests an option to purchase vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which normally will cost 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed time as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance might be a a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for details.
• Look for your local Wilmington, NC visitors guide magazine when you arrive at the rental property. If your rental property doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local shops and visitor centers. In addition to great local information, visitors guides contain offers and deals for local restaurants, attractions, and tours.

Planning and picking a perfectrental:

• Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts is generally accessible on booking pages. If not, email or call the property owner before you book the vacation home. Note that most properties list maximum guest capacity, which oftentimes includes sofa beds and bunks. You will need to establish what is suitable for your vacation group.
• Are you visiting for a specific attraction? Try a map search to browse nearby properties.
• Appropriate accessibility can make or break a vacation for guests with disabilities. .
• If your group is vacationing with pets, filter your search for a pet-friendly vacation rental. Ask for information on breed, size, and type restrictions. Often, property owners charge additional pet fees.

More considerations for your visit:

• Be sure you get the host's contact number and arrival/departure procedures for your rental. Put the host's information in your smartphone.
• To make sure damages aren't attributed to your family's visit, make note of any problem areas when you arrive. message the property manager immediately to record your findings. If there is a dispute about legal responsibility later, having a record of issues and contact attempts will be valuable.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a hot tub, television set or WIFI setup. Contact your host. They are there to help! A brief call prevents many problems.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like troublesome visitors disrupting your peaceful home. Practice the golden rule for best judgement. Happy residents may even recommend great beaches and places you would've not otherwise known about!
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Local residents can typically help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to spend a rainy day, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for shopping?
• Keep the property locked while you are gone! Don't let burglars ruin your vacation.
• Don't leave anything behind! Before you drive away, walk through the property to make sure you've collected all of your things. Check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden items. Clean out the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Inspect the rental a final time and look for damage. We advise walking through with the host whenever possible. If the property manager isn't available, remember to take photos and video of the property to record its condition at check-out.
• Did your group have a fantastic vacation? Most rental managers make it easy for clients to provide reviews. If your property and/or host was fantastic, 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 described correctly, you'll want to make it a point as part of your review.
