Get the most from your spending budget:

• In the Cape Fear area area, The earlier your group can reserve a home, the easier your search will be. The most desirable vacation homes are reserved early. Booking your rental property six - twelve months before your vacation dates is recommended. Christmas, Thanksgiving and New Years Eve are excellent times to plan and reserve your rental.

You'll benefit from lower rental rates, better selection, gorgeous weather and the absence of large crowds at your favorite Cape Fear area restaurants and activities. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Cape Fear area vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday on the coast? Thanksgiving and Christmas are great times to gather with family and friends at your favorite beach.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property owner or host if your vacationing group qualifies for a price reduction.
• Property managers typically offer customers an option to buy trip insurance. Trip insurance, which generally costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any days missed as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance can be a a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for details.
• Many property management companies and vacation rental houses supply Cape Fear area area visitors guides which will include special offers, either offered directly by local businesses, or through a relationship with the management company and the business itself. You can also find Cape Fear area visitors guide and coupon books at local shops and grocery stores.

• Decide how many beds and the configuration you need. Private, near beach, one bedroom kitchen efficiency with outside garden room. has 1 bedrooms and 1 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our Cape Fear area rental home search.
• Precise information about bedrooms and bed types is generally available on booking pages. If they are not listed, reach out to the property manager before you book the home. Remember that most listings specify the max. guest capacity, which usually includes pull-out couches. You will need to establish what is right for your group.
• If your family is traveling with pets, you'll need to find a property that allows animals. Get specifics on breed, weight, and type requirements. Be aware that some hosts charge pet deposits and fees.

• Appropriate accessibility can make or break a vacation for guests with disabilities. .

Advice for a fantastic stay:

• Store the owner's contact information in your smartphone and wallet.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a fireplace, stereo or kitchen appliance. Contact your host. They are there to help! A brief phone call prevents a lot of concerns.
• Ensure you protect the rental owner (and your stuff!) by locking the rental when you are out, just like you would back home.
• To make sure damages are not attributed to your stay, record any problem areas upon your arrival. text the rental manager immediately to relay any issues. If there is a dispute about legal responsibility later, having a record of issues and contact attempts will be valuable.
• Respecting quiet hours and parking restrictions can make a stay more pleasurable. Be a good neighbor. You'll enhance your chance to make some new local friends, and resident neighbors are a great resource to find the best local beaches and hangouts.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Local residents can frequently point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to rent beach equipment, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for shopping?
• At departure, take a final walk-through to make sure you did not forget anything. Re-check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden belongings. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Document the condition of the property at check-out. We recommend taking a video during your final walk-through.
• Did your family have a fantastic time? Most rental websites make it easy for clients to provide reviews. If your property and/or property management company was fantastic, they will likely appreciate your kind words. If anything was imperfect and they failed to fix it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make it a point as part of your comments.
