Booking the best Wilmington, NC vacation home experience:

Get the most from your rental home budget:

• The sooner your group can reserve a vacation rental, the better your selection will be. The most desirable rental homes are booked early. Reserving your vacation rental six - twelve months before your vacation dates is recommended. Holiday gatherings are excellent times to plan and reserve your vacation home.
• Booking your vacation rental in Spring or Fall is our favorite way to save money on your vacation rental. Rates are lower, and you'll find a better selection of suitable properties.
• Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property owner whether your group qualifies for a special rate.
• Management companies and individual rental owners frequently offer renters an option to add vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which normally costs between 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for days missed as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for details.
• Many rental management companies and vacation rental houses supply Wilmington, NC area visitors guide magazines which often include special offers, either offered independently by local businesses, or through a relationship with the management company and the business itself. You can also find Wilmington, NC visitors guide magazine and coupon books at local gas stations and shopping centers.

Use filters to search efficiently:

• Begin by choosing trip dates and a max budget.
• Decide how many beds and the bed configuration you need. Serene island escape with two balconies & spacious layout - walk to beach has 4 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms.
• Precise details about bedrooms and bed counts & types is often available on booking pages. If not, reach out to the property manager before you book the home. Note that most listings specify maximum guest capacity, which usually includes sofa beds and bunks. You'll need to determine what bed configuration is right for your group.
• If your family is bringing pets, search for a pet-friendly rental. Get information on breed, size, and type requirements. Note that some property managers require additional pet deposits and fees.
• Visiting for a single event? Use a map search to browse nearby rentals.
• Appropriate accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for guests with disabilities. Confirm all necessary amenities are included before booking

During your stay:

• Add the owner's contact info to your smartphone. Print and take a copy of check in/check out procedures.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a hot tub, stereo or appliance. Contact your host. They are there to help! A brief phone call prevents quite a few difficulties.
• Ensure you protect the property owner (and your stuff!) by keeping the rental locked up when you are out, just like you would back home.
• Make a record of any damages to the rental at check in, and immediately e-mail them to the host. We specifically recommend e-mails and text messages, as they usually contain built-in time stamps that can be very helpful if a dispute is filed.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like obnoxious vacationers disrupting your quiet neighborhood. Apply the golden rule for common sense. If they like you, locals might even recommend great local food and scenic spots you would've never otherwise known!
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Residents can typically help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to enjoy a steak with a view, have a great night out, or the best spots for fine dining?
• Double-check every room of the property to confirm that you've packed all of your belongings at check-out. Re-check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden belongings. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Inspect the rental one final time and look for any damage. We recommend walking through with the property manager whenever possible. If the manager isn't available, take video of the property to record its condition.
• Did you have a excellent time? Most rental websites make it easy for travelers to provide reviews. If your rental property and/or host was great, they always love to hear your praise. If anything was out of order 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 comments.
