The Space:
Escape to our pretty new beach home in Carolina Beach for a memorable family vacation. Located within walking distance to phenomenal eateries, bars, the beach, and the lake, this is the ideal location for your summer hideaway. This well appointed home might have you thinking twice about venturing out at all. Use the grille or crab pot for your own take on a restaurant style meal while kicking back on two extraordinary decks with comfortable furnishings and a peek a boo view of the ocean.
Follow it all up using the s’mores maker or go less than a block to the famed Squiggley’s for a frozen treat. No matter what the unique amenities will have you wishing you booked a longer stay.

Our vacation home is meticulously maintained. You can relax after a long day at the beach by challenging your family members to a ping pong match in the garage.

Carolina Beach vacation rental tips:

When to book & When to go:

• The sooner you can book a vacation rental, the easier your search will be. The best vacation rentals are booked very early. Reserving your rental 6-12 months before your vacation dates is recommended. Christmas, Thanksgiving and New Years Eve are excellent times to plan and reserve your rental home.
• Summertime is the most expensive season along the coast of NC. Book your rental property in the Fall or Spring shoulder seasons to get the benefit of beautiful weather while saving money and avoiding crowded roads, restaurants, and activities.
• Some property management companies offer promotional rates for veterans. Check with your property manager to see if discounts are available for your family before you book.
• Property management companies usually offer renters an option to add trip insurance. Trip insurance, which normally will cost anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed trip time as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance can be a a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for more information.
• Often, rental management companies supply Wilmington, NC area travel guides which often include money-saving deals, either offered directly by local businesses, or by way of a relationship between the rental management company and the business itself. You can also find visitors guide and coupon books at local gas stations and shopping centers.

Selecting and booking the perfectrental home:

• First, have your family select trip dates and a budget.
• Decide how many beds and the configuration your family requires. Whalers Paradise Summ has 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our Wilmington, NC rental home search.
• Specific information about bedrooms and bed counts & types is usually available on booking websites. Otherwise, reach out to the property manager before you reserve the vacation home. Note that most listings specify the max. guest capacity, which oftentimes includes pull-out couches. You will need to work out what configuration is suitable for your trip.
• Some rental properties allow pets, but others do not. Allowable types of family pet, weight and breeds may be restricted, and added fees may apply. Ask the property management company about allowable breeds and types before booking.
• If there's a specific Wilmington, NC attraction you love, look for properties that are either close by, or those that cater to your desires.
• Suitable accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for the less-mobile. Confirm all necessary amenities are available before booking.

More considerations:

• Take a copy of the host's phone number and check in/check out procedures for your rental. We recommend storing the manager's contact information in your smartphone.
• Hosts are great sources of help! Don't be shy to ask questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Ensure you protect the rental owner (and your things!) by keeping the rental locked up when you are out, just like you would at home.
• Make a record of any damages to the property upon arrival, and immediately e-mail them to the owner. We especially recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain built-in time stamps that can be very helpful if a dispute arises.
• Be respectful. Often, nearby homes are occupied by local residents. Respecting noise limits and parking rules can make a stay significantly more pleasurable.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Residents can often help. Who better to ask where to launch your kayaks, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fine dining?
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before departing, take a walk through the rental to reconfirm you've collected all personal items. Re-check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden treasure. Clean out the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Inspect the rental a final time and look for damages to contents or the property itself. We suggest inspecting the property with the property manager whenever possible. If the host isn't available, ensure that you take video of the property to record its condition at check-out.
• Remember to leave a review! Property managers rely on great feedback to stimulate more bookings. They'll be grateful for your review. Alternatively, if something wasn't as described, other families will be thankful you shared your review and help them have the best future vacation. Be fair with your review. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the host had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded expeditiously to solve it.
