Tips and Tricks to get the best vacation property experience:

Sticking to a spending budget:

• Reserve your vacation home as soon as possible. Rental schedules usually become available a year in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many groups book their Summer vacation rentals during Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years Eve get-togethers. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Summertime is high season in Carolina Beach. To get the best value, try shifting your vacation to the Spring or Fall shoulder seasons. May, September, and even October offer warmer temperatures, fewer crowds, and greatly reduced traffic.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property manager if your vacationing group qualifies for a discount.
• Booking websites usually offer customers an option to buy vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which generally will cost you 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed trip time as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance might be a a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for program terms and fees.
• Find a copy of your local Cape Fear area visitors guide when you arrive at the rental property. If your rental property doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local shops and fuel stations. In addition to great local stories, visitor guides contain offers and deals for nearby accommodations, restaurants and tours.

Selecting the best vacation home:

• Select a group leader, choose your trip dates, and select a max budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and the configuration your family requires. Oceanfront 2 bedroom condo- Pet Friendly- Mermaids Retreat has 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts is commonly available on booking pages. If you don't see them listed, call the host before reserving the property. Remember that most property listings specify the max. guest capacity, which oftentimes includes pull-out couches. You'll need to work out what is right for your family.
• Are you bringing the family pet? Although a number of vacation homes allow pets or animals, guidelines and costs vary per property. Type of pet, size and breeds may be limited. Make sure to ask before booking, and study your agreement! Extra fees or charges could be applied to your invoice.
• If there's a certain Cape Fear area destination you are enamored with, search for properties that are either close by, or those that cater to your needs.
• Proper accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for persons with a disability. Confirm all required amenities are available and included before reserving a rental.

More tips for your stay:

• We recommend storing the host's contact information in your smartphone and wallet.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a garage door opener, television set or thermostat. Contact your host. They are there to help! A brief call can prevent a lot of concerns.
• Protect the property owner (and your stuff!) by keeping the rental locked up when you are away, just like you would back home.
• To make certain that damages aren't linked to your visit, note any problem areas when you arrive. Contact the rental manager immediately to record any issues. If there is a dispute, having a record of problems and contact attempts will be very helpful.
• Respecting quiet hours and parking rules can make a stay more pleasurable. Be a good neighbor. You will increase your chance to make some new local friends, and resident neighbors are a fantastic source for finding the best local beaches and restaurants.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Local residents can often help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to book the best tours, have a great night out, or the best spots for crabbing?
• At departure, complete a final walk-through to confirm you have not leave anything behind. Re-check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden belongings. Clean the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Inspect the property a final time and look for any damage. We advise inspecting the property with the property manager whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the manager is not available, remember to take pictures of the property to record its condition at check-out.
• Did you have a terrific vacation? Many rental websites make it easy for travelers to provide comments. If your property and/or property manager was fantastic, they would love to hear about it. If anything was imperfect and they failed to address it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make a note as part of your feedback.
