Booking the best Holden Beach rental experience:

How to get the best rental value:

• Reserve your rental as early as possible. Rental schedules often open twelve months in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many groups book their Summer vacation rentals during Christmas and Thanksgiving gatherings. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Summer is high season in the Cape Fear area area. Reserving a rental home in the Spring or Fall is our favorite way to save money on your vacation home. Rental rates are lower, and you'll find a larger selection of desirable homes. Many vacationers use this method to find larger homes within budget, or to reserve an oceanfront vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable during the Summer.
• Property managers sometimes offer special rates for veterans. Check with your host or property manager to see if discounts are available for your group before you book.
• Booking websites often offer guests an option to add vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which will generally cost anywhere between 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed trip time as a result of medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance can be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for specifics.
• Often, property management companies supply Cape Fear area area visitor guide magazines which often include coupons, either offered directly by local businesses, or by way of a relationship between the property management company and the business itself. You can also find Cape Fear area visitors guide and coupon books at local shops and grocery stores.

Filter your rental search:

• To start, have your family commit to the best dates and a max budget.
• Note the number beds and the configuration your family needs. Hobbs Realty - \"Sand Froonie House\" offers luxury amenities, including a private swimming pool! has 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms.
• Specific information about bedrooms and bed counts & types is usually accessible on booking websites. If not, contact the host before you book the home. Remember that most listings specify maximum guest capacity, which often includes sofa beds in living rooms.
• If your family is bringing pets, search for a pet-friendly vacation rental. Request details on breed, size, and type restrictions. Note that some property owners require additional pet deposits and fees.
• Is your group looking for special amenities? Most rental search websites include search filters with amenity lists. Use these to your advantage to find the perfect rental home.
• Suitable accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for guests with disabilities. Make certain to ask about specialized equipment and wheel chair accessibility.

Advice for your stay:

• Take a copy of the owner's phone number and check in/check out procedures for your rental home. We recommend storing the host's information in your smartphone.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a hot tub, intercom or WIFI setup. Contact your owner. They are there to help! A brief text message prevents quite a few difficulties.
• Keep your rental home locked while you are away! Don't let burglars spoil your trip.
• Upon arrival, make note of any damages to the rental property and immediately alert the host. Record all coorespondence.
• Respect the neighborhood. Often, nearby homes are filled by local residents. Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking policies can make a stay significantly more pleasurable.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Neighbors can typically point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to find the best seashells, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fine dining?
• Just before checking out, take a final walk-through to make sure you didn't forget any personal items. Check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden treasure. Clean out the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Document the condition of the property at check-out. We recommend taking a video during your final walk-through.
• Did you have a great time? Many rental management companies make it easy for customers to provide reviews. If your property and/or host was fantastic, they will likely appreciate your kind words. If anything was out of order 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 review.
