How to find the best vacation home experience:

Cost saving strategies:

• Reserve your Cape Fear area vacation in the Fall or Spring shoulder seasons to get the benefit of beautiful weather while saving money and avoiding crowded roads, restaurants, and activities. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Cape Fear area vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday on the coast? Thanksgiving and Christmas are great times to gather with loved ones at your favorite beach.
• Reserve your vacation home as early as possible. Rental schedules generally open twelve months in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many families book their Summer vacations during Thanksgiving and Christmas gatherings. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective vacation rental company or host whether your vacationing group qualifies for a price reduction or discount.
• Property management companies frequently offer renters an option to purchase trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which generally will cost you between 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed time as a result of medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance can be a a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for program terms and fees.
• Often, property management companies and vacation rental houses supply Cape Fear area area travel guides which often include special offers, either offered independently by local businesses, or through a partnership between the management company and the business itself. You can also find visitors guide and coupon books at local gas stations and shopping centers.

Use filters to narrow your search:

• Choose a designated group leader, select your vacation dates, and choose a max budget.
• Note the number beds and what type of bedroom configuration your group needs. 5BR\/2 Full & 2 Half Bath Home - Oceanfront, STEPS FROM BEACH, Sleeps 16 has 5 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms.
• Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed types is usually available on booking websites. Otherwise, call the property management company before booking the rental. Note that most listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which frequently includes pull-out couches.
• Are you looking for particular amenities? Most websites include search filters with amenity lists. Amenity filters help you quickly remove less-optimal properties.
• Appropriate accessibility can make or break a vacation for guests that require the use of a wheelchair. Make certain to ask about specialized equipment and wheel chair accessibility.
• If your family is vacationing with pets, search for a pet-friendly property. Make sure to ask for details on breed, weight, and type restrictions. Note that some property owners charge additional pet fees.

More tips for your visit:

• Store the host's contact information in your smartphone and wallet.
• Upon check-in, document any issues with the property and immediately contact the host. Keep records of all correspondence in case a dispute arises.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a hot tub, A/V setup or WIFI setup. Contact your owner. They are there to help! A brief text message can prevent a lot of problems.
• Be respectful. Frequently, surrounding homes are occupied by local residents. Respecting noise limits and parking policies is the right thing to do.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Residents can typically help. Who better to ask where to take kids for a treat, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fishing?
• Ensure you protect the property owner (and your things!) by locking the rental while you are away, just like you would back home.
• Upon check-out, take a walk-through to confirm you haven't forget any personal items. Check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden treasure. Clean out the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Please make sure to walk through the property one final time and keep an eye out for damage. We advise walking through with the property manager whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the host is not available, ensure that you take photos and video of the rental to record its condition at check-out.
• Did your family have a wonderful vacation? Most rental management companies make it easy for vacationers to provide reviews. If your property and/or property manager was terrific, they would love to hear about it. If anything was imperfect and they failed to fix it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make it a point as part of your review.
