Tips to get the optimal Cape Fear area vacation rental experience:

When to visit & When to reserve a Sunset Beach rental home:

• To find the largest rental home within your budget, we suggest reserving in the Fall or Spring shoulder seasons. You'll benefit from lower rental rates, greater selection, gorgeous weather and the absence of giant crowds at popular attractions and restaurants. Many vacationers use this method to find larger homes within budget, or to book an oceanfront rental that would otherwise be unavailable during the Summer.
• The sooner your group can reserve a home, the easier your search will be. The best vacation rentals are booked early. Reserving your vacation home six - twelve months before your vacation dates is recommended. Winter holidays are excellent times to search for and book your vacation home.
• Property management companies sometimes offer rate reductions for active duty military and veterans. It's always a good idea to check with your host or property manager to see if special discounts are available for your group.
• Booking websites frequently offer guests an option to obtain vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which usually will cost 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed days as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as ensuing additional evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance can be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for additional information.
• Look for your local Cape Fear area area magazine when you arrive at the rental property. If your rental home doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local shops and visitor centers. In addition to great information, visitors guide magazines contain money saving offers on nearby tours, shops, and attractions.

Planning and choosing the perfectrental:

• Select a group leader, select your vacation week, and select a budget.
• Determine how many beds and the bed configuration your group requires. Look forward to Fall in SSB--- Book your 2023 Stay NOW at \"Just Add Water \" has 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms.
• Specific details about bedrooms and bed counts is usually available on booking websites. If not, reach out to the property manager before reserving your home. Note that most properties list the max. guest capacity, which often includes sofa beds. You'll need to work out what configuration is optimal for your vacation.
• Looking for special amenities? Most rental websites include search filters with amenity lists.
• Suitable accessibility can make or break a vacation for those with limited mobility. Confirm all required amenities are included before reserving a rental
• If your family is bringing pets, you'll need to search for a pet-friendly vacation rental. Get information on breed, weight, and type restrictions. Be aware that some hosts charge pet deposits and fees.

During your stay:

• Review arrival and departure procedures before traveling. Take a printed copy, and save the directions to your smartphone.
• During check-in, document any issues with the rental property and immediately contact the property manager. Record all correspondence just in case a dispute arises.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a hot tub, intercom or thermostat. Contact your host. They are there to help! A brief phone call can prevent quite a few concerns.
• Be a good neighbor. Often, nearby homes are occupied by permanent residents. Respecting late-night noise limits and parking rules reduces conflict and allows everyone to enjoy their day.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Locals can frequently help. Who better to ask where to grab the best tacos, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for crabbing?
• Lock your rental while you are out and about. Keep your property safe!
• Double-check the property to confirm that you've packed all belongings at check-out. Remember to check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden belongings. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Walk through the property one final time and keep an eye out for damage. We recommend inspecting the property with the host whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the host isn't available, ensure that you take pictures of the property to record its condition at check-out.
• Remember to leave a review! Property managers rely on good reviews to stimulate more bookings. They'll be thankful for your review. Alternatively, if something wasn't right, other families will will be grateful for your experience find their best vacation home. Please be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the manager could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded expeditiously to fix it.
