Vacation rental booking tips:

Finding your best deal:

• Summertime is the most expensive season in coastal NC. To book the best rental home within your budget, we suggest reserving in the Spring or Fall. You'll benefit from lower rental rates, better selection, gorgeous weather and the absence of giant crowds at restaurants, beaches, and activities. Many vacationers use this strategy to reserve larger homes, or to reserve an oceanfront rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during the Summer.
• Book your rental as early as possible. Rental schedules usually become available 12 months in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many groups book their Summer rentals during Thanksgiving and Christmas get-togethers. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective host whether your family qualifies for a special rate.
• Property managers often offer guests an option to obtain trip insurance. Trip insurance, which generally costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed time as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional evacuation costs or charges, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance might be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for program terms and fees.
• Look for your local visitors guide upon arrival. If your rental property doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local shops and visitor centers. In addition to great articles, travel guide magazines contain deals for local tours, shops, and attractions.

Selecting the perfect rental home:

• Select a group lead, choose your vacation week, and choose a maximum budget.
• Determine how many beds and what type of bedroom configuration your family needs. Pet-Friendly Second Row House Steps to Beach! has 5 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts is regularly accessible online. Otherwise, email or call the property management company before you reserve the vacation home. Note that most property listings specify maximum guest capacity, which usually includes pull-out couches. You will need to work out which bed configuration is right for your vacation.
• Are you looking for unique amenities? Most websites include search filters for amenities.
• Appropriate accessibility can make or break a vacation for the less-mobile. Remember to confirm all necessary amenities are available before booking
• If your family is bringing pets, you'll need to search for a pet-friendly property. Ask for specifics on breed, weight, and type requirements. Some property owners require additional pet deposits and fees.

Considerations for your stay:

• Add the property manager's contact info to your smartphone. Take a copy of check in/check out procedures.
• Note any issues with the property during check in, and immediately contact the host. We specifically recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain built-in time stamps that are useful if damages are assessed.
• Property managers are great sources of help! Don't be shy to ask questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking rules can make a stay more pleasurable. Be a good neighbor. You will increase your chance to make local friends, and resident neighbors can be an excellent resource to find the best local scenic spots.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Locals can typically point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to find the best bike paths, have a great night out, or the best spots for fishing?
• Lock your rental home while you're out. Protect your property!
• Don't leave anything behind! Before you drive away, take a walk through the property to confirm you've collected everything. Check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden items. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Inspect the property one final time and scan for any damage. We suggest inspecting the property with the host whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the host is not available, ensure that you take video of the property to record its condition.
• Remember to leave a review! Property managers rely on great ratings to compel future reservations. They'll be thankful for your review. Alternatively, if something went wrong, other families will appreciate that you share your feedback find their best rental home. Be fair with your review. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the owner had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded quickly to remedy it.
