Our top Vacation rental tips and tricks:

Money saving strategies:

• To find the best value, shift your vacation week to the Spring or Fall shoulder seasons. May, September, and even October offer great weather, less crowded beaches, and greatly reduced traffic. Many vacationers use this strategy to find larger homes within budget, or to reserve an oceanfront rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during June, July, and August.
• Book your vacation home as early as possible. Rental schedules generally become available 12 months in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many families book their Summer rental homes during holiday get-togethers. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property owner or host if your vacationing group qualifies for a price reduction.
• Property managers frequently offer guests an option to add trip insurance. Trip insurance, which generally will cost you between 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed vacation time as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance might be a a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for details.
• Many property management companies and vacation rental houses supply Brunswick area area visitors guides which include special deals, either offered directly by local companies, or through a partnership between the rental management company and the business itself. You can also find Brunswick area visitors guide magazine and coupon books at local shops and grocery stores.

How to select the best rental home in Carolina Beach:

• Choose vacation dates and maximum budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and what type of bedroom configuration your family requires. The Blue House at Carolina Beach, swim spa, ping pong, bikes & pet friendly! has 4 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our vacation rental search.
• Precise information about bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is generally accessible on booking websites. If not, email the property management company before booking the rental. Note that most property listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which often includes sofa beds and bunks. You'll need to determine what configuration is suitable for your family.
• If there's an individual Brunswick area beach you crave, search for rentals that are either near by, or those that cater to your desires.
• Proper accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for persons with disabilities. .
• If your group is bringing pets, you'll need to book a pet-friendly property. Get information on breed, size, and type requirements. Often, property managers require additional pet deposits and fees.

Additional considerations:

• Add the host's contact info to your phone. Print and take a copy of arrival/departure procedures.
• Upon arrival, document any damages to the rental property and immediately contact the owner. Keep records of all coorespondence.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a garage door opener, stereo or thermostat. Contact your property manager. They are there to help! A brief text message can prevent a lot of difficulties.
• Respecting quiet hours and parking restrictions can make a stay more pleasurable. You will magnify your chance to make some new local friends, and resident neighbors are often a fantastic source for finding the best local scenic spots.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Residents can frequently help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to order the best nachos, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for BBQ?
• Ensure you protect the rental owner (and your things!) by keeping the rental locked up while you are gone, just like you would back home.
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before you drive away, walk through the rental property to make sure you've collected all of your things. Make sure to check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden items. Clean 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 your family have a fantastic stay? Most rental managers make it easy for vacationers to provide comments. If your rental property and/or property manager was great, they would love to hear about it. If anything was amiss and they failed to address it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make it a point as part of your comments.
