Our top Carolina Beach rental home booking tips:

Get the most from your vacation rental budget:

• In the Cape Fear area area, The earlier your group can book, the easier your search will be. The most desirable vacation rentals are booked early. Reserving your rental home up to twelve months before your travel dates is recommended. Holiday gatherings are excellent times to search for and book your vacation home.
• Summer months are the most expensive season in coastal NC. Booking a rental in Fall or Spring is an excellent way to save money on your rental home. Rental rates are lower, and you'll find a better selection of suitable properties. Many vacationers use this strategy to reserve larger homes, or to book an oceanfront rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during the high season.
• Some owners offer special rates for veterans and active duty military. Remember to ask your property manager if special discounts are available for your family.
• Property management companies typically offer their guests an option to add vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which costs 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed trip time as a result of medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance might be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for details.
• Many property management companies and vacation rental houses supply Cape Fear area area visitors guide magazines which often include coupons, either offered independently by local companies, or by way of a relationship with the property management company and the business itself. You can also find visitors guide and coupon books at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers.

Use filters to search efficiently:

• Begin by selecting your potential vacation weeks and a spending budget.
• Decide how many beds and the bed configuration your group needs. Direct Oceanfront 3 bedroom rustic beach cottage. Great beach memories! has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our Cape Fear area rentals search.
• Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts is regularly accessible on booking pages. If they are not listed, contact the property management company before you book the vacation home. Remember that most properties list maximum guest capacity, which often includes sofa beds.
• Some rental properties allow pets, and some don't. Allowable types of dog or cat, size and breeds may be restricted, and additional charges may apply. Ask the host about pets before booking.
• If there's a certain Cape Fear area attraction you are crazy about, keep an eye out for rentals 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. Make certain to inquire about specialized equipment and wheel chair accessibility.

More considerations:

• Take a copy of the host's phone number and arrival/departure procedures for your rental.
• Hosts are available to help! Feel free to ask any questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Lock your rental while you are away. Protect the owner's property and your stuff!
• Note any damages to the property during check in, and immediately e-mail them to the owner. We specifically recommend e-mails and text messages, as they usually contain built-in time stamps that can be valuable if damages are assessed.
• Respect your neighbors. Often times, adjacent homes are occupied by local residents. Respecting quiet hours and parking rules can make a stay significantly more pleasurable.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Locals can frequently help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to launch your kayaks, have a great night out, or the best spots for fine dining?
• On check-out day, complete a final walk-through to confirm you didn't forget anything. Re-check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden treasure. Clean out the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Go through the property one final time and scan for any damage. We advise walking through with the host whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the manager is not available, ensure that you take photos of the property to record its condition at check-out.
• Remember to leave a review! Property owners rely on good ratings to drive new bookings. They'll be grateful for your review. Alternatively, if something went awry, other vacationers will will be grateful for your experience and help them have the best future vacation. Be fair with your review. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the manager could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded quickly to remedy it.
