Tricks and tips to get the very best Cape Fear area rental home experience:

Find your best deal:

• The earlier you can book, the better your selection will be. The best rental homes are reserved very early. Booking your rental 6-12 months before your vacation dates is recommended. Holidays such as Christmas and Thanksgiving are excellent times to plan and book your vacation rental.
• June, July, and August are the most expensive months in the Cape Fear area area. To get the best value, change your group's trip dates to the Spring or Fall shoulder seasons. May, September, and even October offer warmer weather, less crowded beaches, and greatly reduced traffic. Many vacationers use this strategy to find larger homes within budget, or to book an oceanfront rental that would otherwise be unavailable during the Summer months.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property owner or host if your family qualifies for a price reduction.
• Management companies and individual rental owners often offer their guests an option to purchase trip insurance. Trip insurance, which will generally cost between 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any days missed as a result of medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as evacuation costs or charges, such as an unanticipated hotel or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for additional information.
• Many property management companies supply Cape Fear area area visitors guides that include money-saving deals, either offered independently by local businesses, or by way of a partnership between the management company and the business itself. You can also find Cape Fear area area magazine and coupon books at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers.

Planning and picking the rightrental home:

• First, have your family decide on vacation dates and a budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and what type of bedroom configuration your group requires. Pelican Retreat ~ Screened-in Porch ~ Outdoor Shower ~ Large Back Yard ~ King has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our search.
• Specific details about bedrooms and bed types is regularly available on booking websites. If they are not listed, reach out to the property management company before booking the rental. Note that most properties list the max. guest capacity, which oftentimes includes sofa beds in living rooms. You will need to establish which bed configuration is suitable for your family.
• If your group is bringing pets, you must reserve a property that allows animals. Ask for details on breed, size, and type requirements. Often, property owners require additional pet deposits and fees.
• If there's a particular Cape Fear area beach you crave, look for homes that are either near by, or those that cater especially to your desires.
• Appropriate accessibility can make or break a vacation for persons with a disability. .

More tips for your stay:

• Take a copy of the property manager's contact number and entry/exit procedures for your rental. Store the manager's contact information in your smartphone.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a fireplace, intercom or washer/dryer. Contact your owner. They are there to help! A brief telephone call can prevent a lot of problems.
• Protect the rental owner (and your things!) by locking the property when you are gone, just like you would back home.
• Upon check-in, make note of any damages to the property and immediately contact the host. Record all coorespondence.
• Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking rules can make a stay significantly more pleasurable. You will magnify your chance to make local friends, and resident neighbors can be a terrific resource to find the best local restaurants, beaches, and hangouts.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Neighbors can typically point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to order delicious takeout, have a great night out, or the best spots for crabbing?
• Just prior to departing, complete a walk-through to make sure you didn't forget anything. Make sure to check garages, decks, and cabinets 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 terrific stay? Most rental websites make it easy for travelers to provide comments. If your property and/or property management company was terrific, they would love to hear it. If anything was amiss and they failed to correct it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make it a point as part of your comments.
