Tricks and tips for getting the perfect vacation property experience:

Cost saving strategies:

• To find the best value, consider shifting your group's trip dates to the Spring or Fall months. May, September, and even October offer warm temperatures, , and reduced traffic. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Cape Fear area vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation on the coast? Thanksgiving and Christmas are great times to gather with family and friends at the beach.
• Reserve your vacation home as soon as possible. Rental schedules often open twelve months in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many families book their Summer rental homes during Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years Eve gatherings. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Property managers sometimes offer discounts for veterans and active duty military. Check with your host or property manager to see if discounts are available for your family before you book.
• Management companies and individual rental owners usually offer guests an option to obtain vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which generally will cost between 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed days as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance might be a a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for details.
• Look for your local Cape Fear area visitors guide when you arrive at the rental property. If your rental doesn't have one, you can find them at local shops and fuel stations. In addition to great articles, visitors guide magazines contain discounts for local shops and restaurants.

Planning, selecting, and booking your prefectrental:

• Choose vacation week and maximum budget.
• Note the number bedrooms and the bed configuration you need. Oceanfront w\/ pool by pier, Great for Families. Open now for 2025! has 5 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms.
• Specific information regarding bedrooms and bed counts & types is often available on booking pages. If not, email or call the host before booking the home. Note that most properties list maximum guest capacity, which often includes sofa beds.
• If there's a specific Cape Fear area beach you crave, search for properties that are either near by, or those that cater to your desires.
• Suitable accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for guests with disabilities. Make certain to inquire about wheel chair entry, pool lifts and specialized equipment needs.
• If your family is traveling with pets, filter your search for a pet-friendly rental. Get details on breed, size, and type requirements. Be aware that some property managers require additional pet deposits and fees.

Know before you go:

• Review check in & check out procedures before leaving home. Save the instructions to your phone, and take a printed copy.
• During check-in, document any damages to the property and immediately contact the host. Keep records of all coorespondence.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a hot tub, intercom or kitchen appliance. Contact your property manager. They are there to help! A brief text message can prevent many difficulties.
• Don't forget to respect your neighbors. Often, adjacent homes are occupied by local residents. Respecting late-night noise limits and parking policies is the right thing to do.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Neighbors can frequently help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to book the best tours, have a great night out, or the best spots for fine dining?
• Lock your vacation home while you're out and about. Protect the owner's property and your things!
• Double-check every room of the vacation property to make sure that you've packed all of your belongings at check-out. Make sure to check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden belongings. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Please make sure to walk through the property one final time and keep an eye out for any damage. We suggest walking through with the property manager whenever possible. If the property manager isn't available, remember to take photographs of the rental to record its condition.
• Did your family have a terrific stay? Most rental home management companies make it easy for guests to provide reviews. If your rental and/or property management company was great, they always love to hear your praise. If anything was inoperable and they failed to fix it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make it a point as part of your comments.
