Getting the best Wilmington rental home experience:

Finding your best deal:

• Book your vacation rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules generally open 12 months in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many families book their Summer rentals during Winter holiday get-togethers. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• June, July, and August are the most expensive months in the Cape Fear area area. Reserving a rental home in Spring or Fall is one of our best tips for saving money on your vacation rental. Rates are lower, and you'll find a better selection of suitable properties. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Cape Fear area vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation near the ocean? Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with family and friends at your favorite beach.
• Some property management companies offer promotional rates for veterans and active duty military. Ask your host or property manager if rate reductions are available for your group before you book.
• Property management companies usually offer customers an option to obtain trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which commonly costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed vacation time as a result of medical-related issues or weather, as well as hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance might be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for specifics.
• Often, property management companies supply Cape Fear area area visitors guide magazines that include coupons, either offered directly by local businesses, or through a partnership between the rental management company and the business itself. You can also find visitors guide and coupon books at local shops and grocery stores.

How to select the perfect vacation rental in Wilmington:

• Start by selecting potential vacation weeks and a spending budget.
• Note the number bedrooms and what type of bedroom configuration your family needs. Bachman Tree House Figure Eight Island has 5 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed types is regularly accessible online. If they are not listed, reach out to the host before reserving the vacation home. Note that most properties list the maximum guest capacity, which typically includes sofa beds and bunks. You'll need to establish what is right for your vacation group.
• If your family is bringing pets, you'll need to book a property that allows animals. Get details on breed, weight, and type restrictions. Usually, property managers charge pet deposits and fees.
• Are you visiting for a specific event? Try a map search to browse nearby properties.
• Proper accessibility can make or break a vacation for the less-mobile. Make certain to inquire about specialized equipment and wheel chair accessibility.

Tips for a smooth stay:

• Get the owner's contact number and entry/exit procedures for your rental. We recommend storing the host's information in your smartphone.
• Property managers are great sources of help! Don't be shy to ask any questions during your stay.
• Ensure you protect the property owner (and your things!) by locking the property while you are away, just like you would back home.
• To make certain damages are not linked to your family's stay, inspect the rental for any problem areas during check in. Make contact with the property manager right away to document any issues. If there is a dispute, having a record of issues and contact attempts will be helpful.
• Respect your neighbors. Often times, surrounding homes are occupied by permanent residents. Respecting late-night noise limits and parking regulations is the right thing to do.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Locals can often help. Who better to ask where to find the best seashells, have a great night out, or the best spots for fishing?
• Don't leave anything behind! Before departing, take a walk through the rental to make sure you've collected all belongings. Remember to check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden items. Clean the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Document the condition of the property at check-out. We recommend taking a video during your final walk-through.
• Did your group have a terrific vacation? Most rental managers make it easy for travelers to provide reviews. If your property and/or property management company was great, they always love to hear your praise. If anything was wrong and they failed to address it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make it a point as part of your review.
