Tips and Tricks to get the perfect vacation home experience:

Find your perfect rental home:

• In the Wilmington, NC area, The sooner your group can book a vacation rental, the easier your search will be. The most desirable rental properties are booked very early. Booking your vacation home 6-12 months before your vacation is recommended. Holidays such as Christmas and Thanksgiving are excellent times to plan and book your rental home.
• Summer is the most expensive season in coastal NC. Booking your vacation home in the Fall or Spring shoulder seasons is a great way to save on your rental home. Rental rates are lower, and you'll find a larger selection of suitable homes. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Wilmington, NC vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation near the ocean? Thanksgiving and Christmas are great times to gather with friends and family at the beach.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property management company or host whether your vacationing group qualifies for a price reduction.
• Property managers frequently offer their guests an option to add trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which normally costs between 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed days as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for specifics.
• Many property management companies and vacation rental houses supply Wilmington, NC area travel guides that include coupons, either offered independently by local companies, or by way of a relationship with the property management company and the business itself. You can also find Wilmington, NC area magazine and coupon books at local shops and grocery stores.

Selecting and booking the perfect Wilmington, NC vacation home:

• Start by having your group commit to the best dates and a spending budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and the configuration your family needs. Sunny condo near beach & Intracoastal with outdoor pool, balcony, washer\/dryer has 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms.
• Precise information about bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is usually available online. If they are not listed, email the property manager before reserving the vacation home. Remember that most properties list the maximum guest capacity, which usually includes pull out couches in living rooms.
• If your group is traveling with pets, you must reserve a pet-friendly property. Make sure to ask for specifics on breed, weight, and type requirements. Note that some property managers charge additional pet fees.
• If there's a particular Wilmington, NC beach you are enamored with, search for properties that are either close by, or those that cater to your requirements.
• Suitable accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for guests that require the use of a wheelchair. Make certain to ask about wheel chair entry, pool lifts and specialized equipment needs.

Advice for a great stay:

• Add the property manager's information to your smartphone. Understand and take a copy of arrival/departure procedures.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a fireplace, stereo or washer/dryer. Contact your owner. They are there to help! A brief call prevents many issues.
• Lock your rental home while you're away. Protect the owner's property and your things!
• Make a record of any damages to the property at check in, and immediately send them to the host. We especially recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain time stamps that are useful if a dispute arises.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like loud vacationers bothering your peace and quiet. Practice the golden rule for best judgement. If they like you, locals might even recommend great restaurants and attractions you would have never otherwise known about!
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Locals can usually help. Who better to ask where to launch your kayaks, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for bird watching?
• Don't leave anything behind! Before you drive away, take a walk through the rental property to confirm you've collected all personal items. Make sure to check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden treasure. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Walk through the rental one final time and look for any damage. We advise walking through with the host whenever possible. If the host is not available, ensure that you take photos and video of the property to record its condition.
• Did your group have a wonderful vacation? Most rental home management companies make it easy for vacationers to provide reviews. If your rental and/or property manager was wonderful, they will likely appreciate your kind words. If anything was inoperable and they failed to address it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make it a point as part of your comments.
