Booking the best Cape Fear area vacation property experience:

Get the best rental value:

• Summer months are high season in the Cape Fear area area. To find the best value, try changing your family's Cape Fear area vacation week to the Spring or Fall shoulder seasons. May, September, and even October offer warm weather, fewer crowds, and reduced traffic.
• Book your rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules often open a year in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many families book their Summer vacation rentals during Winter holiday gatherings. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Some hosts and property managers offer discounts for veterans and active duty military. Ask your property manager if rate reductions are available for your family before you book.
• Booking websites often offer customers an option to add vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which commonly will cost anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed time as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather, as well as evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel stay or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance might be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for details.
• Look for your local visitors guide when you check-in. If your rental doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local shops and visitor centers. In addition to great local stories, travel guide magazines have discounts for local restaurants, attractions, and tours.

Planning, selecting, and booking yourrental:

• Begin by choosing trip dates and a max budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and the bed configuration your group requires. Pelican Watch at Holden Beach, Ocean front home with heated pool and great views has 6 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our rental home search.
• Precise information regarding bedrooms and bed counts is commonly accessible on booking pages. If they are not listed, reach out to the property management company before you book the home. Remember that most property listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which oftentimes includes sofa beds and bunks.
• Is your group looking for specific amenities? Most rental websites include search filters with amenity lists. Filtering by amenity will allow you to quickly find the perfect rental.
• Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for those with limited mobility. Make certain to inquire about wheel chair entry, pool lifts and specialized equipment needs.
• Traveling with pets? Many vacation homes allow animals, but guidelines and restrictions apply. Type of pet, size and breeds may be limited. Remember to ask your host before booking, and study your rental agreement! Additional fees or costs could be applied to your agreement.

More tips for your visit:

• Get the owner's phone number and arrival/departure procedures for your . Store the host's contact information in your smartphone and wallet.
• To ensure that damages aren't attributed to your visit, note any problem areas during check in. Speak to the host immediately to record your findings. If there is a dispute about legal responsibility later, having a record of issues and contact attempts will be valuable.
• Hosts are great sources of help! Feel free to ask questions during your stay.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like loud visitors bothering your home life. Apply the golden rule for best judgement. Happy residents may even recommend great beaches and attractions you would've never otherwise known!
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Residents can typically point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to spend a rainy day, have a great night out, or the best spots for shopping?
• Protect the property owner (and your things!) by locking the property when you are gone, just like you would at home.
• On check-out day, complete a final walk-through to confirm you haven't leave anything behind. Re-check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden belongings. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Inspect the property one final time and look for any damage. We recommend walking through with the host whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the host is not available, remember to take photos of the property to record its condition.
• Did your family have a excellent stay? Many vacation rental websites make it easy for guests to provide feedback. If your rental property and/or property management company was wonderful, they would love to hear about it. If anything was inoperable and they failed to correct it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make it a point as part of your feedback.
