Vacation rental booking tips:

When to go & When to book:

• June, July, and August are the most expensive months in Bald Head Island. Reserving a rental home in the Spring or Fall is a great way to save money on your vacation rental. Rental rates are lower, and you'll find a larger selection of suitable homes. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Cape Fear area vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday on the coast? Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with family and friends at the beach.
• The sooner your group can reserve a vacation rental, the better your selection will be. The most desirable vacation rentals are booked very early. Reserving your rental property up to 12 months before your vacation dates is recommended. Holidays such as Christmas and Thanksgiving are excellent times to search for and reserve your vacation home.
• Owners sometimes offer rate reductions for veterans and active duty military. Ask your property manager if special offers are available for your family before you book.
• Booking websites often offer customers an option to purchase vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which usually costs 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 disasters, as well as ensuing additional evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance can be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for specifics.
• Look for your local Cape Fear area area magazine upon arrival. If your rental doesn't have one, you can find them at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers. In addition to great local stories, visitors guide magazines contain deals for local accommodations and attractions.

How to select the perfect vacation rental in the Cape Fear area area:

• Start by having your group select dates and a budget.
• Decide how many beds and what type of bedroom configuration your family needs. \"Air\" Cottage @ Bald Head Island - walking distance to ferry & restaurants has 1 bedrooms and 1 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our Cape Fear area rentals search.
• Specific information about bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is almost always available on booking pages. If you don't see them listed, email the property management company before you book the vacation home. Remember that most listings specify maximum guest capacity, which usually includes sofa beds. You'll need to work out what configuration is suitable for your vacation family.
• Visiting for a single attraction? If so, use a map search to find nearby properties.
• Proper accessibility can make or break a vacation for guests with disabilities. .
• Do your family pets travel with you? Many vacation homes allow animals, but guidelines and restrictions apply. Allowable pet type, breed, and size are often limited. Ask your host before booking, and study your rental agreement! Extra fees or charges might be applied to your contract.

Advice for a great stay:

• Take a copy of the property manager's phone number and check in/check out procedures for your rental home. Store the manager's information in your smartphone.
• To make certain no damages are linked to your stay, inspect the property for any problem areas during check in. Get in touch with the property manager immediately to report any issues. If there is a dispute about who is responsible, having a record of issues and contact attempts will be very helpful.
• Hosts are available to help! Don't be shy to ask any questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Respect your neighbors. Often times, adjacent homes are occupied by local residents. Respecting quiet hours and parking rules can make a stay significantly more pleasurable.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Neighbors can typically point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to get the best seafood, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for bird watching?
• Keep your rental home locked while you're away! Don't let burglars spoil your trip.
• When it's time to leave, take a walk-through to confirm you did not forget anything. Make sure to check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden items. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Inspect the property one final time and scan for damage. We recommend inspecting the property with the property manager whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the property manager is not available, remember to take pictures of the property to record its condition at check-out.
• After your trip, leave a review! Property managers rely on excellent reviews to propel future reservations. They'll be thankful for your feedback. Alternatively, if something went awry, other vacationers will be thankful you shared your review find their best vacation home. Remember to be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the owner had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded reasonably to solve it.
