Tips and Tricks to get the best rental home experience:

Getting the most from your budget:

• June, July, and August are the most expensive months in Holden Beach. Book your rental property in Fall or Spring to get the benefit of beautiful weather while saving money and avoiding crowded roads, restaurants, and activities.
• The earlier your group can book a vacation home, the easier your search will be. The best rental homes are booked early. Booking your vacation home six to twelve months before your travel dates is recommended. Holiday gatherings are excellent times to search for and book your rental.
• Some owners offer special rates for veterans. Ask your property manager if special discounts are available for your family.
• Management companies and individual rental owners typically offer their guests an option to buy vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed trip time as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance might be a a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for specifics.
• Often, rental management companies and vacation rental houses supply Cape Fear area area visitor guide magazines which include coupons, either offered directly 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 magazine and coupon books at local shops and grocery stores.

Filter your search:

• Start by choosing vacation dates and a spending budget.
• Determine how many beds and the bed configuration your family requires. Holden Beach House w/ Boat Dock: Steps to Beach! has 5 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms.
• Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts & types is regularly accessible online. If not, call the host before booking your home. Note that most property listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which typically includes sofa beds and bunks. You'll need to establish what is suitable for your vacation.
• If there's a particular Cape Fear area beach you long to visit, search for properties that are either close by, or those that cater especially to your desires.
• Suitable accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for guests that require the use of a wheelchair. Make certain to ask about wheel chair accessibility, pool lifts and specialized equipment needs.
• Some rental properties allow pets, but others do not. Allowable types of pet, weight and breeds may be restricted, and added charges may apply. Ask the property manager about pets before booking.

More tips for your stay:

• Get the property manager's contact number and entry/exit procedures for your rental property.
• To make certain that damages aren't attributed to your family's stay, inspect the property for any problem areas upon your arrival. Make contact with the host immediately to report any pre-existing damages. If there is a dispute about who is responsible, having a record of issues and contact attempts will be useful.
• Hosts are there to help! Don't be shy to ask questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Be respectful. Frequently, surrounding homes are filled by permanent residents. Respecting late-night noise limits and parking regulations can make a stay significantly more pleasurable.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Local residents can usually help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to charter a fishing boat, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for shopping?
• Keep the property locked while you're gone! Don't let burglars ruin your family vacation.
• Re-check the property to confirm that you've packed all of your belongings on check-out day. Remember to check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden belongings. Remove everything from 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 excellent vacation? Most rental websites make it easy for guests to provide comments. If your property and/or host was great, they would love to hear it. If anything was amiss and they failed to fix it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make a note as part of your comments.
