Booking the best vacation property experience:

Cost saving strategies:

• June, July, and August are high season in the Cape Fear area area. Booking a rental in the Spring or Fall is a great way to save on your vacation. Rates are lower, and you'll find a better selection of acceptable homes. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Cape Fear area vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation near the ocean? Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with friends and family at the beach.
• Book your vacation rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules generally become available twelve months in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many groups book their Summer rentals during Thanksgiving and Christmas get-togethers. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Some owners offer promotional rates for veterans. Remember to ask your property manager if rate reductions are available for your family before you book.
• Property management companies usually offer their guests an option to obtain trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which commonly will cost you anywhere between 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed days as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional evacuation costs or charges, such as an unanticipated hotel or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance can be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for more information.
• Find a copy of your local Cape Fear area visitors guide upon checking in. 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 information, visitor guide magazines contain offers and deals for nearby accommodations, restaurants and tours.

How to select the perfect rental home:

• First, have your family choose vacation dates and a budget.
• Decide how many bedrooms and what type of bedroom configuration your group requires. Deacon on Dolphin! Quaint 3rd Row Beach House with Ocean Views! has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Precise details about bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is normally accessible online. If not, call the property management company before you book the rental. Note that most listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which typically includes sofa beds and bunks.
• Does your family require unique amenities? Most rental search websites include search filters with amenity lists. Use these filters to your advantage to find the perfect rental home.

• Some rental properties allow pets, but others don't. Acceptable types of pet, size and breeds may be restricted, and additional costs may apply. Ask the property manager about your furry family members before booking.

Tips to have a terrific stay:

• Get the property manager's phone number and entry/exit procedures for your .
• Upon arrival, record any issues with the rental property and immediately alert the owner. Keep records of all coorespondence.
• Property managers are there to help! Don't be shy to ask questions during your stay.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like troublesome vacationers bothering your peace. Employ the golden rule for best judgement. If they like you, locals might even recommend great beaches and scenic spots you would have not otherwise known about!
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Locals can typically help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to see a beautiful sunrise or sunset, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fishing?
• Ensure you protect the rental owner (and your stuff!) by locking and securing the home while you are gone, just like you would back home.
• When it's time to leave, take a final walk-through to confirm you didn't forget any personal items. Check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden items. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Go through the property one final time and scan for any damage. We advise inspecting the property with the property manager whenever you can. If the manager is not available, take photos of the rental to record its condition at check-out.
• Did your family have a excellent time? Many rental websites make it easy for vacationers to provide reviews. If your rental property and/or property manager was terrific, they would love to hear it. If anything was out of order and they failed to address it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make it a point as part of your review.
