Tricks and tips to get the perfect Wilmington, NC rental experience:

Sticking to a spending budget:

• Summer months are high season in Bald Head Island. To get the best value, consider changing your trip dates to the Spring or Fall seasons. May, September, and even October offer warmer weather, , and greatly reduced traffic.
• In the Wilmington, NC area, The earlier you can book a vacation rental, the better your selection will be. The most desirable vacation homes are booked very early. Reserving your vacation rental six - twelve months before your vacation dates is recommended. Christmas, Thanksgiving and New Years Eve are excellent times to plan and reserve your vacation home.
• Property management companies sometimes offer discounts for veterans. Ask your host or property manager if discounts are available for your group.
• Property management companies typically offer their guests an option to purchase trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which will generally cost between 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed trip time as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unanticipated hotel or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for additional information.
• Many property management companies and vacation rental houses supply Wilmington, NC area travel guide magazines which will include special deals, either offered directly by local businesses, or through a partnership between the rental management company and the business itself. You can also find Wilmington, NC visitors guide magazine and coupon books at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers.

Use filters to search efficiently:

• Select dates and maximum budget.
• Determine how many beds and what type of bedroom configuration your family requires. The Corsair-a pet-friendly, five-bedroom, 4.5-bath Maritime Forest retreat! has 5 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms.
• Specific details about bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is generally accessible on booking pages. Otherwise, email the host before reserving the property. Remember that most listings specify maximum guest capacity, which usually includes sofa beds in living rooms.
• Are you visiting for a specific attraction? If so, use a map search to find nearby properties.
• Proper accessibility can make or break a vacation for guests that require the use of a wheelchair. Confirm all required amenities are available before reserving a rental.
• Are you bringing the family pet? Many vacation homes allow animals, but guidelines and restrictions apply. Allowable pet type, breed, and size are often limited. Remember to ask the property manager before booking, and study your agreement thoroughly! Additional pet fees or charges could be applied to your contract.

More considerations:

• Get the host's contact number and check in/check out procedures for your rental.
• Make a record of any issues with the property upon arrival, and immediately send them to the host. We especially recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain built-in time stamps that can be beneficial if damages are attributed to your stay.
• Property managers are great sources of help! Feel free to ask any questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Be respectful of your neighbors. Frequently, adjacent homes are filled by permanent residents. Respecting noise limits and parking regulations can make a stay significantly more pleasurable.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Neighbors can often help. Who better to ask where to charter a fishing boat, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for bird watching?
• Ensure you protect the rental owner (and your things!) by locking the rental when you are out, just like you would back home.
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before you drive away, walk through the rental property to confirm you've collected all of your things. Check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden belongings. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Did your group have a fantastic vacation? Most rental management companies make it easy for guests to provide reviews. If your property and/or property manager was wonderful, they would love to hear it. If anything was imperfect and they failed to address it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make a note as part of your feedback.
