Cape Fear area rental home booking tips and tricks:

Money saving strategies:

• Summer time is high season in the Cape Fear area area. Booking in the Spring or Fall is one of our best tips for saving money on your vacation. Rates are lower, and you'll find a larger selection of suitable homes. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Cape Fear area vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation near the ocean? Christmas, Thanksgiving, and New Years Eve are great times to gather with friends and family at the beach.
• Reserve your vacation home as soon as possible. Rental schedules often become available 12 months in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many groups book their Summer vacations during holiday get-togethers. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Hosts and Property managers sometimes offer promotional rates for veterans. Remember to ask your property manager if discounts are available for your group.
• Property management companies usually offer customers an option to add vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which will generally cost between 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any days missed as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance might be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for more information.
• Find a copy of your local Cape Fear area visitors guide when you check-in. If your rental home doesn't have one, you can find them at local grocery stores and visitor centers. In addition to great information, visitor guides contain deals for local tours and attractions.

How to choose and book yourrental:

• Choose a designated group leader, choose your vacation dates, and select a max budget.
• Determine how many beds and what type of bedroom configuration your group requires. Private Getaway, Garden Room, Beach Bikes & Gear, 7 Min Walk To Beach has 1 bedrooms and 1 bathrooms.
• Specific information regarding bedrooms and bed counts & types is often accessible on booking pages. If you don't see them listed, reach out to the host before reserving the vacation home. Remember that most properties list the maximum guest capacity, which often includes sofa beds and bunks.
• If there's an individual Cape Fear area destination you crave, look for properties that are either near by, or those that cater especially to your desires.
• Proper accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for persons with disabilities. Make certain to ask about specialized equipment and wheel chair accessibility.
• Some rental properties allow pets, but some don't. Allowable types of pet, weight and breeds may be restricted, and additional charges may apply. Ask the property management company about allowable pet guidelines before booking.

More tips for your visit:

• Be sure you get the owner's phone number and check in/check out procedures for your .
• Upon check-in, record any issues with the property and immediately contact the host. Record all correspondence just in case a dispute arises.
• Property managers are available to help! Feel free to ask any questions during your stay.
• Respecting quiet hours and parking policies can make a stay more pleasurable. Be a good neighbor. You will increase your chance to make local friends, and resident neighbors are usually a terrific source for finding the best local spots.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Residents can typically help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to enjoy a steak with a view, have a great night out, or the best spots for fishing?
• Protect the property owner (and your things!) by locking the rental when you are away, just like you would back home.
• Double-check every room of the rental property to make sure that you've packed all belongings at check-out. Make sure to check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden treasure. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• After your trip, leave feedback! Property owners rely on good ratings to drive new bookings. They'll be grateful for your feedback. Alternatively, if something went wrong, other families will be thankful you shared your feedback and help them have the best future vacation. Remember to be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the manager had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded quickly to remedy it.
