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

Sticking to your budget:

• To get the best value, consider shifting your group's vacation week to the Spring or Fall seasons. May, September, and even October offer pleasant temperatures, less crowded beaches, and reduced traffic.
• Book your rental as early as possible. Rental schedules generally open a year in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many groups book their Summer rentals during Winter holiday get-togethers. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property management company or host whether your family qualifies for a price reduction or discount.
• Management companies and individual rental owners usually offer renters an option to purchase trip insurance. Trip insurance, which generally will cost you anywhere between 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed vacation time as a result of medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance can be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for details.
• Often, property management companies and vacation rental houses supply Wilmington, NC area visitor guide magazines that include special offers, either offered directly by local companies, or through a partnership between the management company and the business itself. You can also find Wilmington, NC visitors guide and coupon books at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers.

Choosing and booking the perfect Wilmington, NC rental:

• Select a group lead, select your trip dates, and choose a max budget.
• Decide how many beds and the configuration your family requires. ?Blue Skies Ahead: Oceanfront Condo-Beach Access-Great Location? has 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Precise information about bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is commonly available on booking pages. Otherwise, contact the property manager before reserving the property. Remember that most listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which often includes pull-out couches and bunk beds.
• If there's a certain Wilmington, NC destination you are crazy about, look for homes that are either close by, or those that cater to your desires.
• Suitable accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for guests with disabilities. Make certain to inquire about specialized equipment and wheel chair accessibility.
• If your group is bringing pets, filter your search for a pet-friendly vacation rental. Request details on breed, size, and type restrictions. Some hosts require additional pet deposits and fees.

Some things to know before you go:

• Add the host's contact info to your smartphone. Take a copy of check in/check out procedures.
• Record any issues with the property at check in, and immediately contact the property manager. We specifically recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain built-in time stamps that can be helpful if a dispute is filed.
• Property managers are available to help! Don't be shy to ask any questions during your stay.
• Be a good neighbor. Often times, surrounding homes are filled by local residents. Respecting late-night noise limits and parking policies can make a stay significantly more pleasurable.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Local residents can typically help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to find the best seashells, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fishing?
• Keep the property locked while you're gone! Don't let thieves spoil your vacation.
• Don't leave anything behind! Before departing, take a walk through the property to make sure you've collected all belongings. Check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden belongings. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Walk through the property a final time and scan for any damage. We recommend walking through with the property manager whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the manager isn't available, remember to take video of the rental to record its condition.
• Did your family have a terrific time? Most rental management companies make it easy for travelers to provide reviews. If your rental property and/or property management company was great, they always love to hear your praise. If anything was defective and they failed to address it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make a note as part of your review.
