Strategies to get the very best Cape Fear area vacation home experience:

Cost saving strategies:

• Summer is the most expensive season in coastal NC. To find the best value, consider shifting your vacation week to the Spring or Fall seasons. May, September, and October offer warmer weather, , and greatly reduced traffic. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, or to book an oceanfront vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during June, July, and August.
• Book your rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules often open twelve months in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many groups reserve their Summer vacations during Thanksgiving and Christmas gatherings. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Hosts sometimes offer rate reductions for veterans and active duty military. Ask your property manager if special offers are available for your group.
• Property managers usually offer customers an option to purchase vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which commonly costs between 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed days as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather, as well as evacuation costs or charges, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance might be a a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for specifics.
• Look for your local Cape Fear area visitors guide upon checking in. If your rental property doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local shops and fuel stations. In addition to great local information, visitor guide magazines contain deals for nearby restaurants, attractions, and tours.

Selecting and booking the bestrental:

• Choose a group leader, choose your trip dates, and select a spending budget.
• Note the number bedrooms and what type of bedroom configuration your group needs. Wilmington Getaway Near Riverwalk + Downtown! has 2 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our Cape Fear area rental home search.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts & types is commonly available on booking pages. If they are not listed, email the host before you reserve the home. Remember that most listings specify the max. guest capacity, which often includes pull-out couches and bunk beds.
• Looking for unique amenities? Most rental search websites include amenity lists and search filters. Use these to your advantage to find the perfect rental home.
• Proper accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for guests that require the use of a wheelchair. Make certain to ask about specialized equipment and wheel chair accessibility.
• If your group is vacationing with pets, you'll need to find a pet-friendly property. Request specifics on breed, weight, and type restrictions. Usually, hosts require additional pet deposits and fees.

During your stay:

• Store the manager's information in your smartphone and wallet.
• To ensure that damages aren't linked to your stay, inspect the rental for any problem areas during check in. message the host right away to relay any issues. If there is a dispute about who is responsible, having a record of concerns and contact attempts will be useful.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a hot tub, elevator or washer/dryer. Contact your host. They are there to help! A brief call prevents lots of difficulties.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like obnoxious vacationers disrupting your quiet neighborhood. Apply the golden rule for common sense. If they like you, locals might even recommend great beaches and attractions you would've not otherwise known about!
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Local residents can frequently help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to enjoy a steak with a view, have a great night out, or the best spots for crabbing?
• Lock your rental while you're out and about. Protect your property!
• Don't leave anything behind! Before departing, walk through the rental property to confirm you've collected all personal items. Re-check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden treasure. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Walk through the property a final time and look for any damage. We advise walking through with the host whenever possible. If the manager is not available, take photos and video of the property to record its condition at check-out.
• After your trip, leave a review! Property owners rely on good reviews to stimulate more bookings. They'll be thankful for your feedback. Alternatively, if something wasn't right, other vacationers will be thankful you shared your review 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 solve it.
