Tricks and tips to get the perfect vacation home experience:

Cost saving strategies:

• June, July, and August are high season in the Cape Fear area area. To get the best value, consider changing your vacation to the Spring or Fall months. May, September, and October offer pleasant weather, fewer crowds, and greatly reduced traffic. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Cape Fear area vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday on the coast? Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with friends and family at the beach.
• The earlier you can book a rental home, the easier your search will be. The most desirable rental properties are reserved early. Booking your vacation property 6-12 months before your vacation dates is recommended. Holiday gatherings are excellent times to plan and reserve your rental home.
• Some property management companies offer discounts for veterans and active duty military. Check with your host or property manager to see if discounts are available for your group.
• Booking websites typically offer renters an option to buy vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which normally costs 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for days missed as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel stay or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance can be a a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for specifics.
• Find a copy of your local Cape Fear area visitors guide upon arrival. If your rental home doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers. In addition to great articles, visitors guide magazines have coupons for local attractions, tours, restaurants, and shops.

Make a plan and choose a perfectvacation home:

• Start by selecting the best vacation week and a max budget.
• Note the number beds and the bed configuration your family requires. Serenity's Star - West End Oceanfront - Fantastic Views! has 4 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our rental home search.
• Precise information regarding bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is normally accessible on booking websites. Otherwise, email or call the host before you reserve the vacation home. Note that most listings specify the max. guest capacity, which typically includes sofa beds in living rooms. You will need to work out what bed configuration is optimal for your trip.
• Are you visiting for a single event or attraction? If so, use a map search to locate nearby properties.
• Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for guests that require the use of a wheelchair. Confirm all required amenities are available before booking.
• If your group is traveling with pets, you'll need to book a property that allows animals. Request specifics on breed, size, and type requirements. Usually, property managers charge pet deposits and fees.

More tips for your stay:

• Review check in & check out procedures before leaving home. Save the directions to your phone, and take a printed copy.
• Document any issues with the rental upon arrival, and immediately e-mail them to the owner. We especially recommend e-mails and text messages, as they usually contain built-in time stamps that can be very helpful if damages are attributed to your stay.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a fireplace, elevator or washer/dryer. Contact your host. They are there to help! A brief phone call prevents quite a few difficulties.
• Respect the neighborhood. Often times, adjacent homes are occupied by local residents. Respecting noise limits and parking policies can make a stay significantly more pleasurable.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Local residents 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 vacation home while you're out. Protect the owner's property and your things!
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before departing, take a walk through the rental property to confirm you've collected everything. Make sure to check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden belongings. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Inspect the rental a final time and scan for damages to contents or the property itself. We recommend inspecting the property with the host whenever you can. If the manager isn't available, remember to take video and pictures of the property to record its condition at check-out.
• Leave feedback! Property managers rely on good reviews to drive future bookings. They'll be much obliged for your feedback. Alternatively, if something wasn't right, other families will will be grateful for your experience and help them have the best future vacation. Please be fair with your feedback If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the manager could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded expeditiously to remedy it.
