Our top Cape Fear area rental booking tips and tricks:

Finding your best deal:

• Book your vacation home as soon as possible. Rental schedules generally become available 12 months in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many groups book their Summer vacation rentals during holiday gatherings. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Summertime is high season in Carolina Beach. To find the best value, shift your vacation to the Spring or Fall months. May, September, and even October offer warmer weather, fewer crowds, and reduced traffic. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, or to reserve a beach front vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during the Summer.
• Some hosts and property managers offer rate reductions for veterans. Remember to ask your host or property manager if rate reductions are available for your family.
• Property management companies usually offer renters an option to obtain trip insurance. Trip insurance, which commonly will cost anywhere between 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed vacation time as a result of medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance can be a a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for details.
• Often, management companies supply Cape Fear area area travel guide magazines that include money-saving deals, either offered directly by local companies, or by way of a relationship with the management company and the business itself. You can also find visitors guide and coupon books at local shops and grocery stores.

Selecting the perfect rental:

• Select a group leader, select your dates, and choose a maximum budget.
• Note the number bedrooms and what type of bedroom configuration your group requires. Top Floor condo in Ocean Harbor with Views has 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Specific details about bedrooms and bed types is commonly accessible on booking pages. Otherwise, reach out to the property management company before you book your rental. Remember that most properties list maximum guest capacity, which frequently includes pull-out couches. You'll need to work out what is optimal for your trip.
• If your family is traveling with pets, you'll need to find a pet-friendly rental. Request information on breed, weight, and type requirements. Note that some property managers charge additional pet fees.
• Looking for special amenities? Most rental search websites include search filters for amenities. Use these filters to your advantage to find the perfect rental home.
• Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for those with limited mobility. Confirm all required amenities are available before reserving a rental.

Have a great stay:

• Put the manager's contact information in your smartphone.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a fireplace, intercom or WIFI setup. Contact your property manager. They are there to help! A brief call prevents many difficulties.
• Ensure you protect the property owner (and your stuff!) by locking the property when you are away, just like you would back home.
• During arrival, note any issues with the rental property and immediately contact the host. Keep records of all coorespondence.
• Respecting quiet hours and parking policies can make a stay more pleasurable. Be a good neighbor. You will increase your chance to make some new local friends, and resident neighbors are often a fantastic resource to find the best local attractions.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Local residents can typically point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to grab the best tacos, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fine dining?
• Re-check every room of the rental property to make sure that you've packed all personal items on check-out day. Remember to check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden items. Clean out the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Walk through the property a final time and keep an eye out for damages to contents or the property itself. We advise inspecting the property with the property manager whenever possible. If the property manager isn't available, remember to take photos of the rental to record its condition at check-out.
• After your trip, leave a review! Property owners rely on excellent ratings to drive future bookings. They'll be grateful for your review. Alternatively, if something wasn't as described, other vacationers will will be grateful for your review and help them have the best future vacation. Please be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the owner had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded quickly to solve it.
