Cape Fear area rental booking tips and tricks:

When to book & When to go:

• Summertime is the most expensive season along the coast of NC. Reserve your Cape Fear area vacation home in the Fall or Spring to get the benefit of beautiful weather while saving money and avoiding crowds.
• Book your vacation home as soon as possible. Rental schedules often become available a year in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many groups book their Summer rentals during Christmas and Thanksgiving get-togethers. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Property management companies sometimes offer promotional rates for veterans and active duty military. Ask your property manager if special offers are available for your family before you book.
• Booking websites typically offer guests an option to purchase trip insurance. Trip insurance, which normally costs 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed trip time as a result of medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel stay or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance can be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for specifics.
• Often, rental management companies and vacation rental houses supply Cape Fear area area travel guide magazines which include money-saving offers, either offered directly by local businesses, or by way of a relationship with the property management company and the business itself. You can also find Cape Fear area visitors guide and coupon books at local gas stations and shopping centers.

How to pick the perfect vacation home:

• Select your vacation week and budget.
• Note the number bedrooms and the configuration you need. Ocean Haze - Oceanview Retreat has 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms.
• Specific details about bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is commonly available on booking websites. If you don't see them listed, email the property management company before you reserve your rental. Remember that most property listings specify maximum guest capacity, which often includes sofa beds in living rooms. You will need to work out what bed configuration is optimal for your trip.
• Is your group looking for unique amenities? Most rental search websites include search filters with amenity lists.
• Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for guests that require the use of a wheelchair. Confirm all required amenities are available and included before reserving a rental.
• Some properties allow pets, but some don't. Allowable types of pet, size and breeds may be restricted, and added fees may apply. Ask the owner about your furry family members before booking.

More tips for your visit:

• Store the owner's contact information in your smartphone and wallet.
• To ensure that damages are not linked to your family's stay, note any problem areas when you arrive. Make contact with the host right away to relay any pre-existing damages. If there is a dispute about legal responsibility later, having a record of issues and contact attempts will be helpful.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a garage door opener, A/V setup or thermostat. Contact your owner. They are there to help! A brief call prevents lots of difficulties.
• Respecting quiet hours and parking policies can make a stay more pleasurable. You will enhance your chance to make local friends, and resident neighbors are usually a fantastic resource to find the best local beaches and hangouts.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Local residents can typically help. Who better to ask where to go for the best drinks, have a great night out, or the best spots for BBQ?
• Lock your rental property while you are gone! Don't let thieves spoil your trip.
• Double-check the property to make sure that you've packed all personal items at check-out. Check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden treasure. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Did your group have a wonderful vacation? Most rental managers make it easy for travelers to provide reviews. If your property and/or host was terrific, they would love to hear it. If anything was wrong and they failed to fix it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make a note as part of your review.
