Tricks and tips to get the best Cape Fear area rental home experience:

When to reserve a Cape Fear area rental home & When to go:

Booking in the Fall or Spring shoulder seasons is a great way to save on your vacation home. Rental rates are lower, and you'll find a better selection of desirable properties. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, or to book an oceanfront rental that would otherwise be unavailable during the Summer. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the 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 family and friends at your favorite beach.
The sooner your group can book a vacation home, the easier your search will be. The most desirable rental homes are booked very early. Booking your rental up to twelve months before your travel dates is recommended. Holiday gatherings are excellent times to plan and reserve your rental home.
Some owners offer promotional rates for active duty military and veterans. It's always a good idea to check with your host or property manager to see if special discounts are available for your group before you book.
Property management companies usually offer renters an option to obtain trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which commonly costs 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed time as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather, as well as hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance might be a a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for program terms and fees.
Many property management companies and vacation rental houses supply Cape Fear area area visitors guides that include money-saving deals, either offered directly by local businesses, or by way of a relationship between the rental 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 picking the rightrental:

Select your vacation week and max budget.
Determine how many beds and what type of bedroom configuration your family requires. Lavender Guesthouse - A Private Oasis Downtown. has 2 bedrooms and 1 bathrooms.
Precise information regarding bedrooms and bed types is normally available on booking websites. Otherwise, email the property manager before booking the property. Remember that most properties list the max. guest capacity, which usually includes pull-out couches and bunk beds.
If there's a certain Cape Fear area beach you are enamored with, keep an eye out for properties that are either near by, or those that cater especially to your needs.
Suitable accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for those with limited mobility. .
Some rental properties allow pets, but some don't. Acceptable types of pet, size and breeds may be restricted, and additional costs may apply. Ask the owner about allowable pet guidelines before booking.

Have a great stay:

Take a copy of the host's contact number and arrival/departure procedures for your rental home. We recommend storing the manager's information in your smartphone.
Upon check-in, record any issues with the rental property and immediately contact the owner. Keep records of all coorespondence.
Hosts are there to help! Don't be shy to ask questions before, during, or after your stay.
Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking regulations can make a stay significantly more pleasurable. You'll enhance your chance to make some new local friends, and resident neighbors are usually a fantastic resource to find the best local beaches and restaurants.
Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Residents can usually help. Who better to ask where to order the best nachos, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fishing?
Ensure you protect the property owner (and your stuff!) by locking the property while you are out, just like you would at home.
Don't leave anything behind! Before you drive away, take a walk through the rental property to confirm you've collected all belongings. Remember to check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden treasure. Clean out the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
Record a video to document the condition of the property.
Did your group have a terrific stay? Most vacation rental websites make it easy for clients to provide reviews. If your property and/or property management company was terrific, they always love to hear your praise. If anything was imperfect and they failed to address it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make a note as part of your review.
