Strategies to get the best Cape Fear area rental home experience:

When to book a Cape Fear area rental home & When to go:

• In the Cape Fear area area, The earlier you can book a rental home, the better your selection will be. The most desirable rental properties are booked early. Reserving your rental six - twelve months before your travel dates is recommended. Christmas, Thanksgiving and New Years Eve are excellent times to plan and reserve your rental home.
• June, July, and August are the most expensive months in the Cape Fear area area. To find the best value, change your trip dates to the Spring or Fall seasons. May, September, and October offer warm weather, fewer crowds, and reduced traffic. Many vacationers use this strategy to reserve larger homes, or to reserve a beach front vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during the Summer.
• Some property management companies offer discounts for active duty military and veterans. Check with your host or property manager to see if special offers are available for your group.
• Property management companies often offer their guests an option to purchase trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which generally will cost you anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed trip time as a result of medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance might be a a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for additional information.
• Many property management companies supply Cape Fear area area visitors guides which often include money-saving offers, either offered independently 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 shops and grocery stores.

Planning, selecting, and booking the best Cape Fear area rental home:

• Start by choosing the best vacation week and a budget.
• Note the number beds and the bed configuration your family needs. YOUR CAROLINA BEACH VACATION!!! has 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms.
• Specific details about bedrooms and bed counts is generally accessible on booking websites. If not, email the property manager before reserving the vacation home. Note that most listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which oftentimes includes sofa beds. You will need to determine what is suitable for your family.
• If your family is traveling with pets, you'll need to find a pet-friendly property. Make sure to ask for details on breed, size, and type requirements. Usually, property managers charge additional pet fees.
• Are you looking for special amenities? Most websites include search filters for amenities.
• Proper accessibility can make or break a vacation for guests with disabilities. Confirm all required amenities are included before reserving a rental.

During your stay:

• Review arrival and departure procedures before traveling. Take a printed copy, and save the directions to your smartphone.
• Hosts are available to help! Feel free to ask any questions during your stay.
• Lock your rental while you're away. Protect the owner's property and your things!
• To ensure that damages aren't attributed to your stay, inspect for any problem areas when you arrive. Get in touch with the host immediately to relay any damages. If there is a dispute about legal responsibility later, having the recorded issues and contact attempts will be very helpful.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like obnoxious visitors disrupting your home life. Employ the golden rule for best judgement. If they like you, locals might even recommend great beaches and places you would have not otherwise known about!
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Local residents can usually point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to get the best breakfast in town, have a great night out, or the best spots for BBQ?
• Re-check the property to make sure that you've packed all personal items on check-out day. Remember to check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden items. Clean out the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Inspect the property a final time and scan for any damage. We advise inspecting the property with the host whenever possible. If the property manager is not available, ensure that you take video and pictures of the rental to record its condition.
• Did your family have a wonderful time? Most rental management companies make it easy for guests to provide feedback. If your property and/or host was terrific, they would love to hear about it. If anything was defective and they failed to address 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 feedback.
