Tips and Tricks to get the optimal vacation property experience:

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

• Summer is high season in the Cape Fear area area. To find the largest vacation home within budget, we highly recommend booking in the Fall or Spring shoulder seasons. You'll benefit from lower rates, greater selection, gorgeous weather and the absence of large crowds at the beach and popular Cape Fear area attractions.
• The sooner your group can book a rental home, the better your selection will be. The most desirable rental properties are reserved early. Reserving your vacation home 6-12 months before your vacation dates is recommended. Christmas, Thanksgiving and New Years Eve are excellent times to plan and book your vacation rental.
• Property management companies sometimes offer discounts or promotional rates for veterans. Check with your host or property manager to see if rate reductions are available for your group before you book.
• Booking websites usually offer their guests an option to add vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which normally will cost you between 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for days missed as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance can be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for more information.
• Often, rental management companies supply Cape Fear area area travel guides which will include coupons, either offered directly by local companies, or through a relationship with the property management company and the business itself. You can also find Cape Fear area area magazine and coupon books at local gas stations and shopping centers.

Make a plan and pick your Cape Fear area rental:

• To start, have your family agree to trip dates and a max budget.
• Decide how many beds and what type of bedroom configuration you need. NEW FOR 2024-Perfectly located 1st floor condo with pool and tennis court! has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Precise details about bedrooms and bed counts & types is normally available on booking websites. If not, reach out to the property manager before you reserve the home. Note that most properties list the max. guest capacity, which usually includes sofa beds. You'll need to determine what configuration is best for your vacation family.
• If there's a specific Cape Fear area attraction you are enamored with, keep an eye out for rentals that are either close by, or those that cater to your requirements.
• Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for persons with disabilities. Make certain to ask about wheel chair accessibility, pool lifts and specialized equipment needs.
• If your family is traveling with pets, you must book a property that allows animals. Ask for details on breed, size, and type restrictions. Usually, hosts require additional pet deposits and fees.

Additional considerations:

• Review check in & check out procedures before leaving home. Save the directions to your smartphone, and take a printed backup.
• To make sure that damages aren't attributed to your family's stay, make a record of any problem areas upon your arrival. text the rental manager immediately to record any damages. If there is a dispute, having the recorded problems and contact attempts will be valuable.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a fireplace, intercom or thermostat. Contact your property manager. They are there to help! A brief phone call can prevent many issues.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like troublesome vacationers bothering your peaceful home life. Practice the golden rule for common sense. Happy residents may even recommend great local food and scenic spots you would have not otherwise known!
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Local residents can usually point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to book the best tours, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for shopping?
• Lock your rental while you are away. Keep your property safe!
• Re-check the property to make sure that you've packed all of your belongings at check-out. Check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden belongings. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Inspect the property one final time and keep an eye out for any damage. We suggest walking through with the property manager whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the manager isn't available, ensure that you take video and pictures of the rental to record its condition.
• After your trip, leave a review! Property managers rely on excellent feedback to stimulate more bookings. They'll be much obliged for your review. Alternatively, if something wasn't right, other vacationing families will appreciate that you share your feedback and help them have the best future vacation. Please be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the host had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded expeditiously to solve it.
