How to find the best Bald Head Island rental experience:

Get the best value:

• Book your vacation home in Spring or Fall to get the benefit of warm weather while saving money and avoiding crowds. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Cape Fear area vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation on the coast? Thanksgiving and Christmas are great times to gather with family and friends at your favorite beach.
• Book your rental as early as possible. Rental schedules generally open 12 months in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many groups book their Summer vacation rentals during Thanksgiving and Christmas get-togethers. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Some hosts and property managers offer promotional rates for veterans and active duty military. Ask your property manager if special discounts are available for your family before you book.
• Management companies and individual rental owners often offer their guests an option to buy trip insurance. Trip insurance, which usually will cost between 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed days as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance can be a a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for program terms and fees.
• Often, management companies and vacation rental houses supply Cape Fear area area visitor guide magazines which include money-saving deals, either offered directly by local businesses, or through a relationship between the rental management company and the business itself. You can also find Cape Fear area visitors guide and coupon books at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers.

Planning and picking the rightrental:

• Begin by selecting your vacation dates and a budget.
• Determine how many beds and the configuration your family needs. Spacious Oceanfront home near golf and pool, BHI has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our Cape Fear area rentals search.
• Precise details about bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is commonly accessible on booking pages. If they are not listed, contact the property owner before you book your rental. Note that most listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which usually includes pull-out couches. You'll need to determine what is right for your trip.
• If there's a certain Cape Fear area beach you love, search for homes that are either nearby, or those that cater especially to your requirements.
• Proper accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for the less-mobile. Make certain to ask about wheel chair accessibility, pool lifts and specialized equipment needs.
• Some rental properties allow pets, but some do not. Allowable types of family pet, weight and breeds may be restricted, and additional costs may apply. Ask your host about allowable breeds and types before booking.

Additional considerations:

• Add the owner's contact info to your smartphone. Print and take a copy of check in/check out procedures.
• To ensure that no damages are attributed to your stay, make a record of any problem areas when you arrive. Call the rental manager right away to relay any issues. If there is a dispute, having a record of issues and contact attempts will be useful.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a hot tub, television set or thermostat. Contact your property manager. They are there to help! A brief call prevents quite a few problems.
• Be a good neighbor. Often, adjacent homes are occupied by local residents. Respecting quiet hours and parking policies is the right thing to do.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Locals can typically help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to spend a rainy day, have a great night out, or the best spots for shopping?
• Keep the property locked while you're out! Don't let thieves spoil your family vacation.
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before departing, walk through the property to reconfirm you've collected all personal items. Remember to check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden items. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Document the condition of the property at check-out. We recommend taking a video during your final walk-through.
• Leave a review! Property owners rely on good feedback to propel more reservations. They'll be thankful for your feedback. Alternatively, if something went awry, other vacationers will will be grateful for your review and help them have the best future vacation. Remember to be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the owner could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded expeditiously to solve it.
