Tricks and tips to get the perfect vacation rental experience:

When to book & When to go:

• Reserve your rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules generally open a year in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many groups book their Summer rental homes during Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years Eve gatherings. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• June, July, and August are the most expensive months along the coast of NC. Book your vacation home in Spring or Fall to enjoy beautiful weather while saving money and avoiding crowded roads, restaurants, and activities. Many vacationers use this strategy to find larger homes within budget, or to reserve a beach front rental that would otherwise be unavailable during the Summer.
• Some hosts offer discounts for veterans. Make sure to check with your property manager to see if special offers are available for your group.
• Booking websites typically offer renters an option to buy trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which generally will cost anywhere between 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed days as a result of medical-related issues or weather, as well as ensuing additional evacuation costs or charges, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for details.
• Look for your local Cape Fear area visitors guide upon arrival. If your rental property doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local shops and visitor centers. In addition to great local information, travel guides contain deals for nearby attractions, tours, restaurants, and shops.

Narrow your rental Search:

• To start, have your family agree to vacation dates and a spending budget.
• Note the number bedrooms and the bed configuration your family requires. Downtown Wilmington Apartment - 4 Miles to UNCW! has 4 bedrooms and 1 bathrooms.
• Specific details about bedrooms and bed counts is often accessible online. If you don't see them listed, email or call the property manager before you reserve the property. Remember that most properties list the max. guest capacity, which often includes sofa beds and bunks. You will need to establish what configuration is right for your family.
• If your family is traveling with pets, you'll need to find a pet-friendly property. Get details on breed, weight, and type restrictions. Be aware that some hosts charge additional pet fees.
• If there's a certain Cape Fear area destination you are crazy about, look for properties that are either close by, or those that cater especially to your requirements.
• Proper accessibility can make or break a vacation for persons with disabilities. Make certain to inquire about wheel chair accessibility, pool lifts and specialized equipment needs.

Have a great stay:

• Put the manager's information in your smartphone.
• Property managers are great sources of help! Don't be shy to ask any questions during your stay.
• Protect the property owner (and your things!) by locking the rental while you are out, just like you would back home.
• During arrival, make note of any damages to the property and immediately contact the property manager. Keep records of all coorespondence.
• Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking restrictions can make a stay significantly more pleasurable. You'll increase your chance to make local friends, and resident neighbors are a great resource to find the best local beaches and hangouts.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Neighbors can frequently help. Who better to ask where to grab the best tacos, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for shopping?
• Don't leave anything behind! Before departing, take a walk through the rental property to make sure you've collected all of your things. Check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden items. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Inspect the property a final time and keep an eye out for any damage. We suggest walking through with the host whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the property manager isn't available, take photos and video of the property to record its condition at check-out.
• Did you have a great time? Most rental management companies make it easy for customers to provide reviews. If your rental property and/or host was wonderful, they always love to hear your praise. If anything was inoperable 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 feedback.
