Strategies to get the optimal vacation rental experience:

Finding your perfect rental home:

• Book your rental as early as possible. Rental schedules often become available a year in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many families book their Summer vacations during Christmas and Thanksgiving gatherings. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Summertime is the most expensive season in Holden Beach. To find the most suitable rental home for your budget, we suggest reserving in Fall or Spring months. You'll enjoy lower rental rates, better selection, gorgeous weather and the absence of giant crowds at local restaurants, tours, and activities. Many vacationers use this strategy to find larger homes within budget, or to reserve an oceanfront vacation rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during the Summer months.
• Property management companies sometimes offer discounts for veterans. Check with your host or property manager to see if special discounts are available for your group before you book.
• Management companies and individual rental owners usually offer their guests an option to add vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which normally costs between 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed trip time as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for details.
• Look for your local Cape Fear area visitors guide when you arrive at the rental property. If your rental doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers. In addition to great local stories, visitors guide magazines have coupons for local attractions, tours, restaurants, and shops.

Selecting the perfect vacation rental in the Cape Fear area area:

• Select vacation dates and budget.
• Decide how many bedrooms and what type of bedroom configuration your group requires. Original Beach front Cottage has 1 bedrooms and 1 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our search.
• Precise information about bedrooms and bed types is regularly available on booking pages. If you don't see them listed, call the property owner before you book the home. Note that most listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which often includes sofa beds. You'll need to establish what configuration is optimal for your vacation family.
• If your family is vacationing with pets, you'll need to book a property that allows animals. Make sure to ask for information on breed, weight, and type requirements. Often, property owners charge pet deposits and fees.
• Visiting for a single event? Try a map search to locate nearby properties.
• Proper accessibility can make or break a vacation for the less-mobile. Confirm all necessary amenities are included before reserving a rental.

Have a fantastic stay:

• Put the host's information in your smartphone.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a garage door opener, elevator or WIFI setup. Contact your property manager. They are there to help! A brief phone call prevents lots of problems.
• Ensure you protect the owner (and your things!) by locking the property while you are away, just like you would back home.
• Upon check-in, document any issues with the property and immediately contact the property manager. Record all correspondence just in case a dispute arises.
• Be a good neighbor. Often times, adjacent homes are filled by local residents. Respecting late-night noise limits and parking rules is the right thing to do.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Locals can frequently help. Who better to ask where to see a beautiful sunrise or sunset, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for bird watching?
• Upon check-out, complete a final walk-through to confirm you did not forget any personal items. Check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden treasure. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Walk through the property a final time and scan for any damage. We suggest walking through with the property manager whenever possible. If the manager is not available, take photos of the rental to record its condition.
• Did your group have a excellent stay? Many vacation rental websites make it easy for clients to provide feedback. If your rental property and/or host was wonderful, they will likely appreciate your kind words. If anything was imperfect and they failed to correct it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make a note as part of your feedback.
