Tips to get the very best rental home experience:

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

• To get the best value, shift your family's Wilmington, NC vacation to the Spring or Fall months. May, September, and even October offer excellent weather, fewer crowds, and reduced traffic.
• Reserve your vacation rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules usually become available a year in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many groups book their Summer vacation rentals during Winter holiday get-togethers. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective vacation rental company or host if your group qualifies for a price reduction or discount.
• Property managers often offer renters an option to add vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which normally costs between 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed time as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather, as well as evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for details.
• Look for your local visitors guide when you check-in. If your rental property doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers. In addition to great information, travel guide magazines have offers and deals for nearby tours and attractions.

Finding the perfect rental in the Wilmington, NC area:

• Select a group lead, select your trip dates, and select a max budget.
• Determine how many beds and what type of bedroom configuration you need. Wilmington Surf Cottage has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Precise information about bedrooms and bed counts is often available on booking pages. If not, email the property owner before booking your home. Note that most property listings specify maximum guest capacity, which usually includes sofa beds.
• If there's a certain Wilmington, NC beach you long to visit, keep an eye out for rentals that are either close by, or those that cater to your desires.
• Proper accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for the less-mobile. .
• If your family is bringing pets, you must book a property that allows animals. Make sure to ask for specifics on breed, weight, and type restrictions. Often, property managers charge additional pet fees.

Tips to have a fantastic stay:

• Take a copy of the owner's phone number and arrival/departure procedures for your rental home. Put the manager's contact information in your smartphone and wallet.
• Note any damages to the property at check in, and immediately send them to the owner. We specifically recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain built-in time stamps that can be valuable if a dispute arises.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a garage door opener, A/V setup or coffee maker. Contact your property manager. They are there to help! A brief phone call prevents quite a few issues.
• Be a good neighbor. Often, adjacent homes are filled by permanent residents. Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking regulations can make a stay significantly more pleasurable.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Local residents can typically help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to get the best seafood, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for shopping?
• Keep your rental home locked while you are away! Don't let thieves spoil your family vacation.
• Don't leave anything behind! Before you drive away, walk through the property to confirm you've collected all of your things. Check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden treasure. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Walk through the rental one final time and scan for any damage. We advise inspecting the property with the host whenever you can. If the property manager is not available, remember to take photos and video of the property to record its condition at check-out.
• Did you have a wonderful vacation? Most vacation rental websites make it easy for travelers to provide comments. If your rental property and/or property management company was fantastic, they would love to hear it. If anything was out of order 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.
