Our top Bald Head Island rental home booking tips and tricks:

Finding your perfect vacation home:

• The sooner you can book, the easier your search will be. The best rental homes are booked early. Booking your vacation rental up to twelve months before your vacation dates is recommended. Holiday gatherings are excellent times to search for and reserve your rental property.
• Summer is the most expensive season along the coast of NC. Reserve your vacation home in Spring or Fall to enjoy warm weather while saving money and avoiding crowded roads, restaurants, and activities.
• Owners sometimes offer rate reductions for veterans. Remember to ask your host or property manager if special offers are available for your group.
• Management companies and individual rental owners typically offer customers an option to buy trip insurance. Trip insurance, which usually costs between 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for days missed as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance can be a a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for more information.
• Find a copy of your local Wilmington, NC visitors guide when you arrive at the rental property. If your rental doesn't have one, you can find them at local grocery stores and visitor centers. In addition to great local articles, visitors guide magazines have money saving offers on nearby restaurants, attractions, and tours.

Selecting the perfect rental home in the Wilmington, NC area:

• To start, have your group choose vacation dates and a max budget.
• Determine how many beds and what type of bedroom configuration your group needs. Private middle island home with nature views; modern design with three golf carts has 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our rental home search.
• Precise details about bedrooms and bed types is often accessible on booking pages. Otherwise, call the property manager before you reserve the property. Remember that most listings specify the max. guest capacity, which usually includes sofa beds. You will need to work out which bed configuration is suitable for your vacation group.
• If your group is vacationing with pets, you must reserve a pet-friendly rental. Get specifics on breed, size, and type requirements. Often, hosts charge additional pet fees.
• Are you looking for specific amenities? Most rental search websites include amenity lists and search filters. Amenity filters help you quickly remove less-optimal properties.
• Proper accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for persons with a disability. Confirm all necessary amenities are available before reserving a rental.

Advice for a fantastic stay:

• Review arrival and departure procedures before traveling. Save the directions to your smartphone, and take a printed backup.
• Property managers are there to help! Feel free to ask any questions during your stay.
• Ensure you protect the property owner (and your stuff!) by locking the property while you are out, just like you would at home.
• To make certain no damages are linked to your stay, inspect the rental for any problem areas upon your arrival. text the host immediately to record any pre-existing damages. If there is a dispute, having a record of issues and contact attempts will be helpful.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like disagreeable visitors disrupting your life at home. Use the golden rule for common sense. If they like you, locals might even recommend great local food and attractions you would've not otherwise known about!
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Local residents can often help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to order the best nachos, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for shopping?
• Re-check every room of the rental property to confirm that you've packed everything at check-out. Re-check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden belongings. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Document the condition of the property at check-out. We recommend taking a video during your final walk-through.
• Did your family have a terrific time? Many rental home management companies make it easy for travelers to provide feedback. If your property and/or property manager was fantastic, they would love to hear it. If anything was inoperable and they failed to fix it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make a note as part of your comments.
