Cape Fear area rental home tips:

Sticking to your rental budget:

• The earlier you can book a rental home, the easier your search will be. The most desirable vacation homes are reserved early. Reserving your vacation property 6-12 months before your travel dates is recommended. Christmas, Thanksgiving and New Years Eve are excellent times to plan and reserve your vacation rental.
• Book your Cape Fear area vacation in Fall or Spring months to enjoy beautiful weather while saving money and avoiding crowded roads, restaurants, and activities. 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 family and friends at the beach.
• Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property manager or host whether your family qualifies for a special promotion or discount.
• Management companies and individual rental owners usually offer customers an option to obtain vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which will generally cost between 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed vacation time as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as evacuation costs or charges, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for additional information.
• Look for your local Cape Fear area visitors guide magazine upon arrival. If your rental home doesn't have one, you can find them at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers. In addition to great local information, visitors guides contain coupons for local attractions, tours, restaurants, and shops.

Choosing the best vacation home:

• Start by choosing your the best vacation week and a maximum budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and what type of bedroom configuration your group needs. Pet friendly cottage across from beach access, ocean views! has 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms.
• Specific information about bedrooms and bed counts is generally accessible on booking websites. If they are not listed, email or call the property management company before booking your home. Note that most property listings specify maximum guest capacity, which frequently includes sofa beds. You'll need to determine what configuration is suitable for your vacation.
• Some properties allow pets, and some do not. Allowable types of dog or cat, size and breeds may be restricted, and additional charges may apply. Ask the host about allowable pet guidelines before booking.
• Are you visiting for a specific attraction? Use a map search to find nearby properties.
• Suitable accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for the less-mobile. .

More considerations for your visit:

• Put the owner's contact information in your smartphone.
• Hosts are there to help! Feel free to ask questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Protect the rental owner (and your things!) by locking and securing the home when you are out, just like you would at home.
• During check-in, make note of any damages to the rental property and immediately alert the property manager. Keep records of all coorespondence.
• Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking regulations can make a stay more pleasurable. You will increase your chance to make some new local friends, and resident neighbors can be an incredible resource to find the best local restaurants, beaches, and hangouts.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Local residents can usually point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to see a beautiful sunrise or sunset, have a great night out, or the best spots for shopping?
• Double-check every room of the vacation property to confirm that you've packed all belongings at departure. Remember to check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden treasure. Clean out the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Did your family have a wonderful stay? Most vacation rental websites make it easy for guests to provide comments. If your property and/or host was terrific, they would love to hear it. If anything was imperfect and they failed to fix it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make a note as part of your review.
