Getting the best rental home experience:

Getting the most from your spending budget:

• Reserve your vacation rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules usually open 12 months in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many groups reserve their Summer vacations during Christmas and Thanksgiving get-togethers. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Summertime is the most expensive season along the coast of NC. Book your Wilmington, NC rental home in Fall or Spring months to enjoy gorgeous weather while saving money and avoiding crowds. Many vacationers use this method to find larger homes within budget, or to book an oceanfront vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during the Summer months.
• Property management companies sometimes offer discounts for veterans. Make sure to check with your host or property manager to see if discounts are available for your family.
• Property management companies frequently offer guests an option to purchase vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed time as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance can be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for details.
• Find a copy of your local Wilmington, NC visitors guide magazine when you arrive at the rental property. If your rental home doesn't have one, you can find them at local shops and visitor centers. In addition to great information, visitor guide magazines have deals for local accommodations and attractions.

How to pick the best vacation rental in Holden Beach:

• Begin by selecting vacation dates and a spending budget.
• Decide how many beds and the bed configuration your family requires. Serenity's Star - West End Oceanfront - Fantastic Views! has 4 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed types is generally accessible online. If they are not listed, email or call the property manager before you reserve your rental. Remember that most listings specify maximum guest capacity, which typically includes pull-out couches and bunk beds. You will need to determine which bed configuration is best for your family.
• If your family is traveling with pets, you'll need to search for a pet-friendly property. Make sure to ask for details on breed, weight, and type restrictions. Some property managers require additional pet deposits and fees.
• Visiting for a single event? If so, use a map search to find nearby properties.
• Proper accessibility can make or break a vacation for persons with disabilities. Remember to confirm all required amenities are included before reserving a rental

Additional considerations:

• Take a copy of the owner's phone number and check in/check out procedures for your rental.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a fireplace, intercom or WIFI setup. Contact your property manager. They are there to help! A brief phone call can prevent a lot of problems.
• Ensure you protect the owner (and your stuff!) by locking the property while you are away, just like you would at home.
• To ensure that damages are not attributed to your visit, inspect the rental for any problem areas during arrival. Make contact with the property manager immediately to report your findings. If there is a dispute, having a record of concerns and contact attempts will be valuable.
• Respect your neighbors. Often, nearby homes are filled by local residents. Respecting noise limits and parking regulations reduces conflict and allows everyone to enjoy their day.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Neighbors can often point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to spend a rainy day, have a great night out, or the best spots for fishing?
• Upon check-out, take a walk-through to confirm you did not forget anything. Remember to check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden belongings. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Did your family have a great stay? Most rental managers make it easy for vacationers to provide comments. If your property and/or host was wonderful, they will likely appreciate your kind words. If anything was imperfect and they failed to address it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make it a point as part of your feedback.
