Tips and Tricks to get the very best rental home experience:

Finding your perfect rental home:

• Summertime is high season in Wilmington. To find the best value, shift your family's Cape Fear area vacation week to the Spring or Fall months. May, September, and October offer warmer weather, fewer crowds, and greatly reduced traffic. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Cape Fear area vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday near the ocean? Thanksgiving and Christmas are great times to gather with friends and family at your favorite beach.
• Reserve your rental as early as possible. Rental schedules generally open twelve months in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many groups book their Summer rentals during Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years Eve gatherings. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property manager if your group qualifies for a special rate.
• Management companies and individual rental owners typically offer renters an option to buy trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which commonly costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed days as a result of medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance can be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for additional information.
• Look for your local visitors guide when you arrive at the rental property. If your rental property doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local shops and fuel stations. In addition to great local information, visitor guides have coupons for local shops and restaurants.

How to choose the perfect vacation rental:

• First, have your family agree to trip dates and a spending budget.
• Determine how many beds and the bed configuration your family needs. Authentic Craftsman cottage - enclosed yard, lovely porch, W\/D & great location has 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms.
• Precise information regarding bedrooms and bed counts is normally accessible on booking pages. If they are not listed, contact the property owner before you book your rental. Note that most properties list the max. guest capacity, which usually includes sofa beds in living rooms.
• Does your group require unique amenities? Most rental websites include search filters for amenities.
• Proper accessibility can make or break a vacation for persons with a disability. Remember to confirm all necessary amenities are available and included before reserving a rental
• Some rental properties allow pets, but others don't. Allowable types of pet, size and breeds may be restricted, and additional fees may apply. Ask the property manager about pets before booking.

Additional considerations:

• Add the property manager's contact info to your smartphone. Take a copy of arrival/departure procedures.
• To ensure that no damages are attributed to your visit, make note of any problem areas when you arrive. Speak to the host right away to relay any damages. If there is a dispute about who is responsible, having the recorded concerns and contact attempts will be useful.
• Property managers are there to help! Feel free to ask any questions during your stay.
• Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking rules can make a stay significantly more pleasurable. You will increase your chance to make local friends, and resident neighbors are usually an excellent source for finding the best local attractions.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Neighbors can often help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to go for the best drinks, have a great night out, or the best spots for fine dining?
• Keep the property locked while you are away! Don't let crooks spoil your vacation.
• Re-check every room of the rental property to confirm that you've packed all of your belongings at check-out. Make sure to check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden belongings. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Document the condition of the property at check-out. We recommend taking a video during your final walk-through.
• Did you have a excellent time? Most rental managers make it easy for customers to provide reviews. If your rental and/or property manager was wonderful, they always love to hear your praise. If anything was defective 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 feedback.
