Strategies to get the perfect Carolina Beach vacation home experience:

Cost saving strategies:

The sooner you can reserve a vacation rental, the easier your search will be. The most desirable rental properties are reserved early. Reserving your vacation home six to twelve months before your vacation is recommended. Winter holidays are excellent times to search for and reserve your rental property.
June, July, and August are the most expensive months in coastal NC. Book your Cape Fear area rental home in Spring or Fall to get the benefit of beautiful weather while saving money and avoiding crowds.
Hosts sometimes offer discounts for veterans. Make sure to check with your property manager to see if discounts are available for your group before you book.
Booking websites typically offer renters an option to buy vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which commonly will cost you 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any days missed as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance can be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for specifics.
Often, management companies and vacation rental houses supply Cape Fear area area visitor guides which will 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 visitors guide and coupon books at local gas stations and shopping centers.

Planning, selecting, and booking the perfect Cape Fear area vacation home:

First, have your family commit to a vacation week and a max budget.
Determine how many bedrooms and what type of bedroom configuration your group needs. New! Condo with Dock + Pool has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our Cape Fear area vacation rental search.
Precise details about bedrooms and bed counts & types is commonly available on booking pages. If you don't see them listed, reach out to the host before you book your rental. Note that most property listings specify the max. guest capacity, which usually includes sofa beds. You will need to determine what configuration is right for your vacation family.
Some rental properties allow pets, but some do not. Acceptable types of dog or cat, weight and breeds may be restricted, and additional charges may apply. Ask the owner about pet restrictions before booking.
If there's an individual Cape Fear area beach you are crazy about, search for properties that are either nearby, or those that cater to your needs.
Suitable accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for the less-mobile. Confirm all required amenities are included before reserving a rental.

Tips for your stay:

Add the property manager's contact information to your smartphone. Print and take a copy of arrival/departure procedures.
Hosts are there to help! Feel free to ask any questions before, during, or after your stay.
Keep the property locked while you are away! Don't let burglars ruin your family vacation.
Make a record of any issues with the rental at check in, and immediately e-mail them to the host. We especially recommend e-mails and text messages, as they usually contain time stamps that can be beneficial if a dispute is filed.
Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like obnoxious visitors disrupting your peaceful neighborhood. Practice the golden rule for common sense. Happy residents may even recommend great beaches and attractions you would have not otherwise known about!
Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Local residents can often point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to get the best breakfast in town, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for shopping?
At departure, take a walk-through to confirm you didn't forget anything. Remember to check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden belongings. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
Go through the property one final time and scan for any damage. We advise walking through with the property manager whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the manager is not available, remember to take video of the rental to record its condition.
Did your group have a excellent time? Most vacation rental websites make it easy for clients to provide comments. If your rental property and/or property manager was fantastic, they would love to hear it. If anything was imperfect and they failed to address it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make it a point as part of your comments.
