Vacation rental booking tips and tricks:

Get the most from your rental home budget:

• The sooner your group can book, the easier your search will be. The best rental properties are booked early. Booking your vacation rental six - twelve months before your vacation is recommended. Holiday gatherings are excellent times to search for and reserve your vacation rental.
• Summer months are high season in Wilmington. To get the best value, consider changing your vacation week to the Spring or Fall seasons. May, September, and October offer warmer temperatures, less crowded beaches, and reduced traffic. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, or to reserve an oceanfront vacation rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during the Summer months.
• Hosts sometimes offer discounts for veterans. Remember to ask your property manager if discounts are available for your family before you book.
• Property management companies typically offer their guests an option to buy trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed vacation time as a result of medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unanticipated hotel or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance can be a a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for additional information.
• Find a copy of your local visitors guide upon checking in. If your rental doesn't have one, you can find them at local grocery stores and visitor centers. In addition to great information, visitors guides contain discounts for nearby tours and attractions.

Narrow your Search:

• To start, have your group decide on dates and a budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and the bed configuration your group requires. Getaway near UNCW, Downtown, & the Beach has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Precise information about bedrooms and bed counts & types is regularly accessible on booking websites. If not, reach out to the host before you book your rental. Note that most properties list the max. guest capacity, which oftentimes includes sofa beds and bunks.
• Some rental properties allow pets, but others do not. Allowable types of dog or cat, weight and breeds may be restricted, and added charges may apply. Ask the host about pet restrictions before booking.
• Are you looking for specific amenities? Most rental search websites include search filters for amenities.
• Proper accessibility can make or break a vacation for the less-mobile. Confirm all required amenities are available before booking

Know before you go:

• Get the host's contact number and arrival/departure procedures for your rental home. Put the host's information in your smartphone.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a fireplace, intercom or thermostat. Contact your owner. They are there to help! A brief call can prevent lots of concerns.
• Protect the rental owner (and your things!) by locking and securing the home while you are out, just like you would at home.
• To make sure that damages aren't linked to your family's stay, record any problem areas when you arrive. E-mail the host immediately to document any pre-existing damages. If there is a dispute about legal responsibility later, having the recorded problems and contact attempts will be useful.
• Be respectful of your neighbors. Often times, nearby homes are filled by local residents. Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking regulations reduces conflict and allows everyone to enjoy their day.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Local residents can typically help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to charter a fishing boat, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fine dining?
• Don't leave anything behind! Before departing, take a walk through the rental to make sure you've collected all personal items. Re-check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden treasure. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Go through the property one final time and scan for any damage. We suggest inspecting the property with the host whenever you can. If the manager isn't available, take video and pictures of the property to record its condition at check-out.
• Did you have a great stay? Many vacation rental websites make it easy for vacationers to provide reviews. If your property and/or property manager was great, they always love to hear your praise. If anything was out of order and they failed to fix it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make a note as part of your feedback.
