Tips to get the perfect Wilmington vacation home experience:

Money saving strategies:

• June, July, and August are high season in Wilmington. To get the best rental home within your budget, we suggest booking in the Spring or Fall. You'll enjoy lower rental rates, better selection, beautiful weather and the absence of giant crowds at restaurants, beaches, and activities. Many vacationers use this strategy to reserve larger homes, or to reserve an oceanfront rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during the Summer months.
• Reserve your rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules usually open a year in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many groups book their Summer vacations during Winter holiday get-togethers. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Some property management companies offer discounts for veterans and active duty military. Ask your host or property manager if special discounts are available for your group.
• Management companies and individual rental owners often offer customers an option to buy vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which generally will cost 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for days missed as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as ensuing additional evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance can be a a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for details.
• Find a copy of your local visitors guide when you check-in. If your rental doesn't have one, you can find them at local grocery stores and visitor centers. In addition to great local stories, visitors guide magazines contain coupons for local accommodations, restaurants and tours.

How to choose the perfect vacation rental in Wilmington:

• Start by having your group commit to vacation dates and a spending budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and the configuration your family requires. Memories on Grace, near downtown Wilmington and area beaches has 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Precise information about bedrooms and bed counts is often available online. Otherwise, email or call the property owner before reserving the property. Note that most property listings specify the max. guest capacity, which typically includes sofa beds in living rooms.
• If there's an individual Cape Fear area destination you love, keep an eye out for properties that are either close by, or those that cater to your needs.
• Proper accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for persons with a disability. Confirm all necessary amenities are available before reserving a rental.
• If your group is bringing pets, you'll need to find a pet-friendly rental. Request details on breed, weight, and type restrictions. Note that some property owners charge pet deposits and fees.

More considerations for your visit:

• Add the host's contact information to your phone. Understand and take a copy of check in/check out procedures.
• Make a record of any issues with the rental at check in, and immediately contact the property manager. We specifically recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain time stamps that are very helpful if a dispute is filed.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a fireplace, elevator or thermostat. Contact your host. They are there to help! A brief call can prevent many difficulties.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like troublesome visitors bothering your life at home. Employ the golden rule for common sense. Happy residents may even recommend great beaches and places you would have not otherwise known!
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Local residents can usually help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to get the best breakfast in town, have a great night out, or the best spots for bird watching?
• Ensure you protect the rental owner (and your things!) by locking the property while you are out, just like you would back home.
• At departure, complete a walk-through to confirm you did not leave anything behind. Check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden belongings. Clean the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Leave feedback! Property managers rely on great feedback to propel future bookings. They'll be grateful for your review. Alternatively, if something wasn't right, other vacationers will appreciate that you share your review and help them have the best future vacation. Please be fair with your feedback 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 solve it.
