How to find the best vacation home experience:

Sticking to your budget:

• The earlier you can book a rental home, the better your selection will be. The best rental homes are booked very early. Booking your rental home six to twelve months before your travel dates is recommended. Holidays such as Christmas and Thanksgiving are excellent times to plan and reserve your rental home.
• June, July, and August are the most expensive months in Wilmington. To find the best vacation home within budget, we suggest booking in Fall or Spring months. You'll enjoy lower rental rates, better selection, warm weather and the absence of large crowds at restaurants, beaches, and activities.
• Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property owner or host whether your group qualifies for a special promotion or discount.
• Property managers frequently offer guests an option to add vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which commonly will cost between 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed trip time as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather, as well as evacuation costs or charges, such as an unanticipated hotel or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance can be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for specifics.
• Many management companies and vacation rental houses supply Cape Fear area area travel guides which will include coupons, either offered independently by local companies, or through a partnership between the rental management company and the business itself. You can also find Cape Fear area visitors guide and coupon books at local shops and grocery stores.

Finding the best vacation rental in Wilmington:

• First and foremost, have your family decide on trip dates and a maximum budget.
• Note the number bedrooms and the bed configuration your group needs. The Sausalito Retreat-Firepit & Outdoor Oasis! has 4 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our vacation rental search.
• Specific details about bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is almost always accessible online. If you don't see them listed, contact the host before reserving the vacation property. Note that most properties list the maximum guest capacity, which usually includes pull-out couches. You will need to establish what configuration is optimal for your trip.
• Remember to include your furry companions! Although a number of vacation homes allow pets or animals, guidelines and costs vary per property. Type of pet, size and breeds may be limited. Ask your host before booking, and study your agreement! Extra fees or charges may be applied to your agreement.
• Visiting for a specific attraction or event? Use a map search to find nearby rentals.
• Proper accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for persons with disabilities. Confirm all necessary amenities are included before booking

Tips to have a great stay:

• Be sure you get the property manager's contact number and check in/check out procedures for your rental property. Put the host's information in your smartphone.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a garage door opener, intercom or coffee maker. Contact your property manager. They are there to help! A brief telephone call prevents many problems.
• Lock your rental while you are out. Protect your property!
• During arrival, record any damages to the rental property and immediately contact the property manager. Record all coorespondence.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like unpleasant visitors disrupting your peaceful home life. Employ the golden rule for best judgement. Happy residents may even recommend great local food and attractions you would have never otherwise known!
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Locals can typically help. Who better to ask where to launch your kayaks, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for bird watching?
• Upon check-out, complete a walk-through to confirm you haven't leave anything behind. Re-check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden items. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Walk through the rental a final time and scan for any damage. We suggest inspecting the property with the host whenever possible. If the manager is not available, remember to take video and pictures of the property to record its condition at check-out.
• Did your family have a wonderful vacation? Many rental managers make it easy for travelers to provide comments. If your rental property and/or property management company was fantastic, they would love to hear about it. If anything was imperfect and they failed to correct it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make it a point as part of your comments.
