Our top Vacation rental tips:

Cost saving strategies:

• Summer months are the most expensive season in Holden Beach. Book your rental property in Fall or Spring months to enjoy gorgeous weather while saving money and avoiding crowds.
• Book your rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules generally open a year in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many groups book their Summer vacation rentals during holiday get-togethers. Reserve 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 offers are available for your family.
• Booking websites frequently offer renters an option to obtain vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which generally will cost between 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed trip time as a result of medical-related issues or weather, as well as hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for specifics.
• Look for your local Cape Fear area visitors guide magazine when you arrive at the rental property. If your rental home doesn't have one, you can find them at local shops and visitor centers. In addition to great information, visitors guides contain coupons for nearby accommodations and attractions.

How to choose the perfect rental:

• Select a group lead, select your trip dates, and choose a budget.
• Decide how many bedrooms and the bed configuration your family requires. Amazing beach retreat great for family fun and relaxing at the bar by the pool has 5 bedrooms and 7 bathrooms.
• Specific information about bedrooms and bed types is regularly accessible online. Otherwise, call the property manager before reserving the vacation home. Note that most listings specify the max. guest capacity, which oftentimes includes sofa beds.
• Visiting for a specific event? If so, use a map search to locate nearby properties.
• Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for the less-mobile. Remember to confirm all required amenities are available and included before booking
• If your family is traveling with pets, you'll need to book a rental that allows animals. Make sure to ask for information on breed, size, and type requirements. Some property managers charge pet deposits and fees.

Additional considerations:

• Review check in & check out procedures before leaving home. Add a note with the directions to your phone, and take a printed backup.
• Make a record of any damages to the property during check in, and immediately e-mail them to the owner. We especially recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain time stamps that can be valuable if a dispute is filed.
• Hosts are available to help! Feel free to ask questions during your stay.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like disrespectful vacationers bothering your quiet neighborhood. Use the golden rule for best judgement. If they like you, locals might even recommend great beaches and places you would've not otherwise known!
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Locals can often help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to spend a rainy day, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for bird watching?
• Keep your rental home locked while you're gone! Don't let thieves spoil your vacation.
• On check-out day, complete a final walk-through to confirm you didn't leave anything behind. Check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden belongings. Clean the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Remember to leave a review! Hosts rely on good feedback to compel new bookings. They'll be grateful for your feedback. Alternatively, if something wasn't right, other families will be thankful you shared your feedback find their best vacation rental. Be fair with your review. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the host had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded expeditiously to fix it.
