Tricks and tips to get the perfect rental experience:

Sticking to a rental home budget:

• Summer months are the most expensive season in Carolina Beach. Booking your vacation home in Spring or Fall is our favorite way to save money on your vacation. Rates are lower, and you'll find a better selection of acceptable homes. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, or to reserve a beach front rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during June, July, and August. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Cape Fear area vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday on the coast? Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with family and friends at your favorite beach.
• Book your vacation rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules usually become available 12 months in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many families reserve their Summer vacation rentals during Thanksgiving and Christmas gatherings. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Some property management companies offer discounts for veterans. It's always a good idea to check with your property manager to see if special offers are available for your group.
• Booking websites usually offer customers an option to obtain trip insurance. Trip insurance, which commonly will cost 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed trip time as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for details.
• Look for your local Cape Fear area visitors guide upon arrival. If your rental property doesn't have one, you can find them at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers. In addition to great information, visitors guide magazines contain offers and deals for nearby accommodations and attractions.

How to choose and book yourvacation home:

• Start by selecting your vacation dates and a max budget.
• Determine how many beds and the configuration you need. ~Stroke of Luck~ + Ocean View + Ocean Access + Pet Friendly\n has 4 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms.
• Precise information about bedrooms and bed counts & types is generally available on booking websites. If not, email the host before you reserve the property. Remember that most properties list the maximum guest capacity, which often includes pull-out couches and bunk beds. You will need to work out what is best for your vacation family.
• Is your family looking for specific amenities? Most rental websites include search filters with amenity lists. Amenity filters help you quickly remove less-optimal properties.
• Suitable accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for those with limited mobility. Make certain to inquire about wheel chair accessibility, pool lifts and specialized equipment needs.
• If your group is vacationing with pets, you will need a pet-friendly rental. Make sure to ask for details on breed, weight, and type restrictions. Some hosts require additional pet deposits and fees.

Tips to have a terrific stay:

• Get the owner's contact number and arrival/departure procedures for your rental. Store the manager's contact information in your smartphone and wallet.
• Note any issues with the property at check in, and immediately e-mail them to the host. We especially recommend e-mails and text messages, as they usually contain time stamps that are beneficial if there is a dispute.
• Hosts are there to help! Don't be shy to ask any questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking policies can make a stay more pleasurable. Be a good neighbor. You will enhance your chance to make some new local friends, and resident neighbors are often a terrific resource to find the best local restaurants, beaches, and hangouts.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Neighbors can often help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to launch your kayaks, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for BBQ?
• Lock your rental while you are away. Keep your property safe!
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before you drive away, take a walk through the rental to confirm you've collected everything. Remember to check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden items. Clean out the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Please make sure to walk through the rental one final time and keep an eye out for any damage. We suggest inspecting the property with the property manager whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the property manager is not available, remember to take photos of the rental to record its condition at check-out.
• Did your group have a fantastic stay? Many rental home management companies make it easy for vacationers to provide feedback. If your property and/or host was wonderful, they would love to hear about it. If anything was out of order and they failed to fix it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make a note as part of your comments.
