Tips and Tricks for getting the perfect rental home experience:

Finding the best rental home value:

• Summertime is high season in the Cape Fear area area. Booking your Cape Fear area vacation rental in the Fall or Spring shoulder seasons is our best tip for saving money on your vacation. Rates are lower, and you'll find a larger selection of acceptable homes.
• The earlier your group can reserve a vacation home, the easier your search will be. The most desirable vacation rentals are booked early. Booking your vacation home 6-12 months before your vacation is recommended. Winter holidays are excellent times to plan and book your vacation home.
• Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective vacation rental company or host whether your group qualifies for a price reduction.
• Property management companies often offer their guests an option to buy vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for days missed as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel stay or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for details.
• Often, management companies supply Cape Fear area area visitor guide magazines which include special offers, either offered independently by local businesses, or through a partnership between the rental management company and the business itself. You can also find Cape Fear area visitors guide magazine and coupon books at local gas stations and shopping centers.

Selecting and booking the perfectvacation home:

• Select a group leader, choose your trip dates, and select a budget.
• Decide how many beds and the bed configuration your group needs. Hobbs Realty - Oceanfront w\/Heated Pool, Elevator, and Second Living Area has 6 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms.
• Precise information about bedrooms and bed counts is often available on booking websites. Otherwise, reach out to the property management company before you reserve the property. Note that most properties list maximum guest capacity, which oftentimes includes sofa beds.
• Looking for particular amenities? Most websites include amenity lists and search filters. Use these to your advantage to find the perfect rental home.
• Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for guests with disabilities. Remember to confirm all required amenities are available and included before booking
• If your family is traveling with pets, filter your search for a property that allows animals. Request details on breed, size, and type requirements. Be aware that some property managers charge additional pet fees.

More tips for your visit:

• Review arrival and departure procedures before leaving home. Take a printed copy, and save the directions to your phone.
• Upon check-in, document any issues with the rental property and immediately alert the property manager. Record all coorespondence.
• Property managers are there to help! Feel free to ask any questions during your stay.
• Respect your neighbors. Often times, surrounding homes are occupied by local residents. Respecting quiet hours and parking policies reduces conflict and allows everyone to enjoy their day.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Local residents can usually help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to charter a fishing boat, have a great night out, or the best spots for bird watching?
• Keep the property locked while you're gone! Don't let burglars spoil your vacation.
• Double-check the rental property to make sure that you've packed everything at departure. Remember to check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden belongings. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Inspect the rental a final time and scan for damages to contents or the property itself. We recommend inspecting the property with the property manager whenever possible. If the property manager isn't available, take photos of the property to record its condition at check-out.
• Did your family have a fantastic stay? Most rental management companies make it easy for vacationers to provide reviews. If your rental property and/or property manager was terrific, they would love to hear about it. If anything was wrong and they failed to fix it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make it a point as part of your comments.
