Tricks and tips to get the very best Cape Fear area vacation property experience:

Getting the most from your rental home budget:

• Book your rental as early as possible. Rental schedules usually become available a year in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many families reserve their Summer vacation rentals during Thanksgiving and Christmas gatherings. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Summer time is high season in Carolina Beach. To get the best value, change your group's vacation to the Spring or Fall months. May, September, and October offer excellent temperatures, less crowded beaches, and reduced traffic.
• Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective host if your family qualifies for a special rate.
• Property managers often offer guests an option to add vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which usually will cost you between 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed trip time as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for program terms and fees.
• Find a copy of your local Cape Fear area visitors guide magazine when you check-in. If your rental doesn't have one, you can find them at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers. In addition to great local information, visitor guide magazines contain discounts for local accommodations and attractions.

Finding the best vacation rental:

• Select a designated group leader, choose your dates, and choose a maximum budget.
• Note the number bedrooms and the bed configuration your family needs. Friendly 3BR townhome with fenced in yard! has 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our search.
• Precise information about bedrooms and bed counts & types is usually available on booking pages. If not, email the property management company before reserving the property. Remember that most listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which typically includes pull out couches in living rooms.
• If your group is vacationing with pets, you'll need to search for a pet-friendly rental. Request details on breed, size, and type restrictions. Note that some hosts charge additional pet fees.
• If there's an individual Cape Fear area beach you simply love, search for rentals that are either near by, or those that cater to your desires.
• Suitable accessibility can make or break a vacation for the less-mobile. Remember to confirm all necessary amenities are available before booking

More considerations for your visit:

• Add the owner's contact info to your phone. Print and take a copy of check in/check out procedures.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a fireplace, elevator or kitchen appliance. Contact your property manager. They are there to help! A brief text message can prevent lots of problems.
• Lock your rental home while you are out. Protect your property!
• To make certain that no damages are attributed to your stay, inspect the property for any problem areas upon check in. Speak to the host immediately to record your findings. If there is a dispute, having the recorded problems and contact attempts will be helpful.
• Respect the neighborhood. Often times, surrounding homes are filled by permanent residents. Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking policies is the right thing to do.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Local residents can frequently point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to launch your kayaks, have a great night out, or the best spots for BBQ?
• On check-out day, complete a final walk-through to confirm you didn't leave anything behind. Re-check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden treasure. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Go through the rental a final time and look for damages to contents or the property itself. We advise walking through with the host whenever you can. If the manager isn't available, take pictures of the property to record its condition.
• Did you have a fantastic time? Many vacation rental websites make it easy for guests to provide reviews. If your rental property and/or host 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 comments.
