How to get the best vacation property experience:

Get the most from your spending budget:

• Summer time is high season in the Cape Fear area area. Book your rental home in Spring or Fall to get the benefit of warm weather while saving money and avoiding crowded roads, restaurants, and activities. Many vacationers use this strategy to find larger homes within budget, or to reserve a beach front vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during the high season.
• In the Cape Fear area area, The sooner you can reserve a home, the easier your search will be. The most desirable vacation rentals are reserved very early. Reserving your vacation property six - twelve months before your vacation is recommended. Holidays such as Christmas and Thanksgiving are excellent times to search for and reserve your vacation home.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property management company or host if your group qualifies for a special promotion or discount.
• Booking websites typically offer renters an option to add vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which usually will cost between 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for days missed as a result of medical-related issues or weather, as well as evacuation costs or charges, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for more information.
• Look for your local Cape Fear area visitors guide magazine when you check-in. If your rental home doesn't have one, you can find them at local shops and fuel stations. In addition to great local stories, visitors guides contain money saving offers on local restaurants, attractions, and tours.

Choosing and booking the right Cape Fear area rental home:

• Choose a designated group leader, choose your dates, and select a max budget.
• Determine how many beds and the bed configuration you need. 5 BR\/3BA Home - Oceanfront, RECENTLY UPGRADED, Sleeps 18 has 5 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed types is almost always available online. If you don't see them listed, contact the property owner before booking the property. Note that most listings specify the max. guest capacity, which usually includes sofa beds and bunks. You'll need to establish what configuration is optimal for your vacation.
• Are you looking for particular amenities? Most websites include search filters with amenity lists. Filtering by amenity will allow you to quickly find the best rental home.
• Suitable accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for persons with disabilities. .
• If your family is vacationing with pets, search for a pet-friendly property. Ask for details on breed, size, and type requirements. Often, property owners require additional pet deposits and fees.

Considerations for your stay:

• Add the owner's information to your smartphone. Understand and take a copy of arrival/departure procedures.
• Upon arrival, make note of any damages to the property and immediately alert the property manager. Record all coorespondence.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a fireplace, A/V setup or coffee maker. Contact your owner. They are there to help! A brief phone call prevents quite a few difficulties.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like loud vacationers disrupting your peaceful neighborhood. Use the golden rule for best judgement. If they like you, locals might even recommend great restaurants and scenic spots you would've not otherwise known about!
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Residents can usually point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to take kids for a treat, have a great night out, or the best spots for BBQ?
• Ensure you protect the property owner (and your things!) by locking the rental when you are gone, just like you would back home.
• On check-out day, take a final walk-through to make sure you didn't leave anything behind. Re-check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden items. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Go through the property one final time and scan for damage. We suggest inspecting the property with the host whenever possible. If the host isn't available, ensure that you take pictures of the property to record its condition at check-out.
• Did your group have a great vacation? Most rental managers make it easy for clients to provide feedback. If your rental property and/or host was terrific, they would love to hear it. If anything was out of order and they failed to fix it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make a note as part of your feedback.
