Tips and Tricks to get the very best Wilmington, NC vacation home experience:

When to book a Wilmington, NC rental home & When to go:

• In the Wilmington, NC area, The earlier your group can reserve a home, the easier your search will be. The best properties are reserved very early. Reserving your rental 6-12 months before your vacation dates is recommended. Holidays such as Christmas and Thanksgiving are excellent times to search for and reserve your rental home.
• Summer is high season in the Wilmington, NC area. To book the most suitable vacation home for your budget, we highly recommend reserving in the Fall or Spring. You'll enjoy lower rates, greater selection, warm weather and the absence of large crowds at Wilmington, NC restaurants, tours, and activities.
• Some hosts and property managers offer discounts or promotional rates for active duty military and veterans. Ask your host or property manager if discounts are available for your group before you book.
• Property managers usually offer guests an option to add trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which normally will cost 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any days missed as a result of medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for specifics.
• Find a copy of your local Wilmington, NC visitors guide magazine upon arrival. If your rental home doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local shops and fuel stations. In addition to great local stories, visitors guide magazines have money saving offers on local accommodations, restaurants and tours.

Planning, picking, and booking your Wilmington, NC rental:

• Begin by choosing the best vacation week and a maximum budget.
• Note the number beds and the configuration your family requires. The Tipsy Turtle *New Vacation Beach House* has 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms.
• Precise details about bedrooms and bed types is generally accessible online. If not, contact the property manager before you reserve the vacation home. Remember that most listings specify maximum guest capacity, which often includes pull out couches in living rooms.
• Some properties allow pets, and some don't. Acceptable types of pet, size and breeds may be restricted, and additional fees may apply. Ask the property manager about pets before booking.
• Does your group require particular amenities? Most rental websites include amenity lists and search filters. Filtering by amenity will allow you to quickly find the best rental.
• Suitable accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for those with limited mobility. Make certain to ask about wheel chair accessibility, pool lifts and specialized equipment needs.

Some things to know before you go:

• Add the property manager's contact info to your phone. Understand and take a copy of check in/check out procedures.
• Property managers are available to help! Don't be shy to ask questions during your stay.
• Lock your vacation home while you're out. Protect your property!
• To make certain no damages are attributed to your visit, inspect the property for any problem areas during arrival. Call the property manager immediately to relay any pre-existing damages. If there is a dispute about legal responsibility later, having the recorded concerns and contact attempts will be helpful.
• Respect the neighborhood. Often times, adjacent homes are occupied by local residents. Respecting noise limits and parking regulations reduces conflict and allows everyone to enjoy their day.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Local residents can typically point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to charter a fishing boat, have a great night out, or the best spots for fishing?
• Re-check every room of the property to confirm that you've packed all of your family's items at departure. Re-check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden items. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Inspect the rental one final time and keep an eye out for any damage. We recommend inspecting the property with the property manager whenever you can. If the host isn't available, ensure that you take photos and video of the rental to record its condition at check-out.
• Did your group have a great time? Many rental home management companies make it easy for travelers to provide comments. If your rental and/or property manager was terrific, they would love to hear about it. If anything was out of order 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.
