How to get the best Wilmington vacation home experience:

When to book & When to go:

• Reserve your vacation rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules generally become available a year in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many families book their Summer vacations during Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years Eve get-togethers. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Summertime is the most expensive season in Wilmington. To get the best value, try changing your family's Cape Fear area trip dates to the Spring or Fall months. May, September, and October offer excellent temperatures, fewer crowds, and greatly reduced traffic.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property management company or host whether your family qualifies for a special rate.
• Booking websites frequently offer customers an option to add trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which commonly will cost 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for days missed as a result of medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for program terms and fees.
• Look for your local Cape Fear area area magazine when you check-in. If your rental home doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local shops and visitor centers. In addition to great articles, visitors guide magazines contain money saving offers on local accommodations, restaurants and tours.

How to pick the perfect vacation rental in Wilmington:

• Choose a group leader, choose your dates, and choose a budget.
• Decide how many beds and the bed configuration your group requires. Downtown Charmer 1 is just a 10 min walk to the river has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts & types is commonly accessible online. If you don't see them listed, call the property management company before you reserve the home. Note that most listings specify the max. guest capacity, which usually includes sofa beds in living rooms.
• Some properties allow pets, but some do not. Allowable types of family pet, weight and breeds may be restricted, and additional fees may apply. Ask your host about pets before booking.
• Does your group require particular amenities? Most websites include search filters for amenities. Amenity filters help you quickly remove less-optimal properties.
• Appropriate accessibility can make or break a vacation for persons with a disability. .

Advice for a wonderful stay:

• Store the host's contact information in your smartphone.
• Hosts are great sources of help! Feel free to ask any questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Lock your rental home while you are away. Protect your property!
• During arrival, record any issues with the property and immediately contact the property manager. Keep records of all coorespondence.
• Be respectful. Frequently, nearby homes are filled by local residents. Respecting noise limits and parking regulations can make a stay significantly more pleasurable.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Local residents can usually help. Who better to ask where to charter a fishing boat, have a great night out, or the best spots for crabbing?
• Just prior to departing, complete a walk-through to confirm you did not forget any personal items. Check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden items. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Inspect the property a final time and look for damage. We advise walking through with the host whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the manager is not available, remember to take photos of the rental to record its condition.
• Did your group have a excellent time? Most rental websites make it easy for clients to provide comments. If your property and/or property management company was great, they would love to hear it. If anything was inoperable and they failed to fix it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make a note as part of your feedback.
