Our top Cape Fear area rental property booking tips:

Sticking to a spending plan:

• June, July, and August are high season in Holden Beach. Booking a rental in the Fall or Spring is a good way to save money on your vacation. Rental rates are lower, and you'll find a larger selection of desirable homes. Many vacationers use this method to find larger homes within budget, or to book a beach front vacation rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during June, July, and August.
• The sooner your group can reserve a vacation home, the better your selection will be. The best rental properties are reserved very early. Booking your rental property six to twelve months before your travel dates is recommended. Holidays such as Christmas and Thanksgiving are excellent times to search for and book your vacation rental.
• Owners sometimes offer rate reductions for veterans and active duty military. Ask your host or property manager if special discounts are available for your family.
• Booking websites typically offer customers an option to purchase trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which commonly costs 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed vacation time as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for additional information.
• Often, management companies and vacation rental houses supply Cape Fear area area visitor guides which include special deals, either offered independently by local companies, or through a partnership between the management company and the business itself. You can also find Cape Fear area visitors guide and coupon books at local shops and grocery stores.

Planning and choosing your Cape Fear area rental:

• Select your vacation week and budget.
• Decide how many beds and the configuration your family requires. Hobbs Realty - \"Go Barefootin\" at this beautiful five-bedroom home with a private swimming pool and a hot tub has 5 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms.
• Precise information regarding bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is commonly accessible on booking pages. If not, email or call the property management company before booking your home. Note that most property listings specify maximum guest capacity, which typically includes pull out couches in living rooms. You'll need to work out what is right for your vacation.
• If there's a certain Cape Fear area destination you crave, search for rentals that are either close by, or those that cater to your desires.
• Appropriate accessibility can make or break a vacation for persons with a disability. Confirm all required amenities are included before booking
• If your family is bringing pets, you will need a rental that allows animals. Get information on breed, weight, and type restrictions. Some hosts require additional pet deposits and fees.

More considerations:

• Be sure you get the host's contact number and check in/check out procedures for your rental property.
• Note any damages to the rental during check in, and immediately send them to the property manager. We specifically recommend e-mails and text messages, as they usually contain built-in time stamps that are beneficial if a dispute arises.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a fireplace, A/V setup or coffee maker. Contact your property manager. They are there to help! A brief text message prevents quite a few concerns.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like disagreeable vacationers disrupting your peaceful neighborhood. Use the golden rule for common sense. If they like you, locals might even recommend great local food and attractions you would have not otherwise known about!
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Local residents can frequently help. Who better to ask where to see a beautiful sunrise or sunset, have a great night out, or the best spots for crabbing?
• Ensure you protect the owner (and your things!) by locking the property when you are out, just like you would back home.
• Double-check every room of the rental property to make sure that you've packed all personal items at check-out. Remember to check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden treasure. Clean out 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.
• After your trip, leave feedback! Property owners rely on good feedback to stimulate new reservations. They'll be much obliged for your feedback. Alternatively, if something went awry, other vacationing families will appreciate that you share your experience find their best vacation home. Remember to be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the property manager had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded quickly to fix it.
