Tips to get the best vacation property experience:

Getting the best rental home value:

• Summer is high season in the Cape Fear area area. To get the best value, try shifting your family's Cape Fear area trip dates to the Spring or Fall months. May, September, and October offer pleasant temperatures, fewer crowds, and reduced traffic. Many vacationers use this strategy to find larger homes within budget, or to reserve an oceanfront rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during the Summer months.
• Book your vacation rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules usually open 12 months in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many groups book their Summer rental homes during holiday gatherings. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Hosts sometimes offer special rates for veterans. Check with your host or property manager to see if special offers are available for your group.
• Property management companies usually offer their guests an option to obtain vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which commonly will cost you between 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed trip time as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance might be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for additional information.
• Look for your local visitors guide upon arrival. If your rental home doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local shops and fuel stations. In addition to great local information, visitors guides contain deals for local tours, shops, and attractions.

Selecting the perfect vacation rental:

• Choose a group leader, select your vacation dates, and choose a budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and the bed configuration your family requires. Allegra: Dog-Friendly Home with Modern Kitchen \/ Baths and Easy Beach Access has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our Cape Fear area vacation rental search.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts is regularly accessible on booking websites. If not, reach out to the host before reserving the rental. Note that most properties list maximum guest capacity, which oftentimes includes pull out couches in living rooms.
• Visiting for a single event? If so, use a map search to browse nearby rentals.
• Proper accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for the less-mobile. Confirm all necessary amenities are included before reserving a rental
• If your group is bringing pets, filter your search for a rental that allows animals. Request specifics on breed, size, and type restrictions. Some hosts charge additional pet fees.

Know before you go:

• Be sure you get the owner's phone number and arrival/departure procedures for your rental.
• To make certain that damages are not linked to your family's stay, make note of any problem areas during check in. Call the property manager immediately to record any issues. If there is a dispute about who is responsible, having the recorded problems and contact attempts will be useful.
• Property managers are there to help! Don't be shy to ask any questions during your stay.
• Be a good neighbor. Often, nearby homes are occupied by permanent residents. Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking policies is the right thing to do.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Neighbors can frequently help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to spend a rainy day, have a great night out, or the best spots for fishing?
• Lock your rental property while you're gone! Don't let crooks ruin your holiday.
• At departure, complete a final walk-through to confirm you did not leave anything behind. Remember to check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden belongings. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Did you have a terrific stay? Most rental managers make it easy for customers to provide feedback. If your rental and/or property management company was terrific, they always love to hear your praise. If anything was amiss and they failed to correct 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 review.
