Tips to get the perfect Wilmington, NC vacation property experience:

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

• June, July, and August are the most expensive months in coastal NC. To get the best value, try shifting your family's Wilmington, NC vacation week to the Spring or Fall seasons. May, September, and even October offer warm weather, less crowded beaches, and reduced traffic. Many vacationers use this strategy to find larger homes within budget, or to reserve a beach front rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during the high season.
• Book your vacation home as early as possible. Rental schedules often become available twelve months in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many groups reserve their Summer rental homes during Thanksgiving and Christmas get-togethers. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Owners sometimes offer promotional rates for veterans. It's always a good idea to check with your host or property manager to see if discounts are available for your family.
• Property management companies frequently offer renters an option to add trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which generally will cost anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed vacation time as a result of medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel stay or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for more information.
• Many property management companies and vacation rental houses supply Wilmington, NC area visitor guide magazines which include coupons, either offered independently by local businesses, or through a relationship between 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.

Make a plan and choose your Wilmington, NC vacation home:

• Select a group lead, choose your vacation week, and select a spending budget.
• Decide how many beds and what type of bedroom configuration your family needs. Welcome to our island abode! has 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts & types is regularly accessible online. Otherwise, email or call the property management company before you book the property. Note that most properties list maximum guest capacity, which usually includes pull out couches in living rooms. You'll need to establish what is right for your trip.
• If there's a certain Wilmington, NC attraction you are crazy about, browse homes that are either near by, or those that cater especially to your needs.
• Appropriate accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for those with limited mobility. .
• If your family is vacationing with pets, filter your search for a pet-friendly property. Ask for information on breed, size, and type restrictions. Note that some property owners charge additional pet fees.

Some things to know before you go:

• Put the owner's contact information in your smartphone and wallet.
• During arrival, document any damages to the rental property and immediately contact the property manager. Record all correspondence just in case a dispute arises.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a hot tub, elevator or washer/dryer. Contact your host. They are there to help! A brief phone call can prevent a lot of issues.
• Respect the neighborhood. Often times, surrounding homes are filled by permanent residents. Respecting noise limits and parking regulations is the right thing to do.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Neighbors can frequently help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to find the best bike paths, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fine dining?
• Ensure you protect the owner (and your stuff!) by locking and securing the home when you are gone, just like you would at home.
• Re-check the property to confirm that you've packed all belongings on check-out day. Check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden treasure. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Inspect the property one final time and keep an eye out for any damage. We advise inspecting the property with the property manager whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the manager isn't available, ensure that you take pictures of the rental to record its condition at check-out.
• Did you have a great stay? Many rental managers make it easy for customers to provide comments. If your rental property and/or property manager was wonderful, they would love to hear about it. If anything was amiss and they failed to correct it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make it a point as part of your review.
