Tips to get the best vacation property experience:

Finding your best deal:

• In the Wilmington, NC area, The earlier you can book a vacation rental, the better your selection will be. The most desirable vacation rentals are booked early. Reserving your vacation rental up to twelve months before your travel dates is recommended. Winter holidays are excellent times to search for and reserve your vacation home.
• Summertime is high season in the Wilmington, NC area. To book the best vacation home for your budget, we recommend booking in Fall or Spring months. You'll benefit from lower rates, better selection, warm weather and the absence of giant crowds at the beach and popular attractions. 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, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with friends and family at the beach.
• Hosts and Property managers sometimes offer discounts for veterans and active duty military. Remember to ask your property manager if discounts are available for your group.
• Property management companies usually offer guests an option to purchase trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which generally costs 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any days missed as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance can be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for more information.
• 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 a copy, you can find them at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers. In addition to great local articles, travel guide magazines have deals for local accommodations, tours and attractions.

• Note the number bedrooms and the bed configuration your group needs. Walking Distance to the Beach 2 Bed 1 Bath Beach Cottage on beautiful Oak Island has 2 bedrooms and 1 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our Wilmington, NC vacation rental search.
• Specific information regarding bedrooms and bed counts & types is generally accessible online. If not, email or call the property owner before you reserve the vacation property. Remember that most property listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which typically includes pull-out couches.
• If your family is bringing pets, you will need a rental that allows animals. Request details on breed, size, and type requirements. Note that some hosts charge additional pet fees.
• Visiting for a single event? Use a map search to locate nearby rentals.
• Proper accessibility can make or break a vacation for persons with a disability. .

Additional considerations:

• Take a copy of the property manager's contact number and arrival/departure procedures for your rental property. We recommend storing the host's information in your smartphone and wallet.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a garage door opener, intercom or kitchen appliance. Contact your owner. They are there to help! A brief call can prevent a lot of difficulties.
• Keep your rental home locked while you are out! Don't let crooks ruin your family vacation.
• To make certain that damages are not linked to your family's stay, inspect the property for any problem areas upon check in. Contact the property manager right away to record any issues. If there is a dispute, having the recorded issues and contact attempts will be very helpful.
• Be respectful of your neighbors. Often times, adjacent homes are occupied by local residents. Respecting late-night noise limits and parking regulations reduces conflict and allows everyone to enjoy their day.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Neighbors can often help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to spend a rainy day, have a great night out, or the best spots for shopping?
• Just prior to departing, complete a final walk-through to confirm you didn't leave anything behind. Remember to check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden belongings. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Leave a review! Property owners rely on excellent ratings to drive future bookings. They'll be thankful for your feedback. Alternatively, if something went wrong, other families will appreciate that you share your experience and help them have the best future vacation. Be fair with your review. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the property manager could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded quickly to fix it.
