Getting the best Carolina Beach rental experience:

Get the most from your rental budget:

• Summer time is high season in Carolina Beach. To book the largest rental home for your budget, we suggest reserving in the Fall or Spring shoulder seasons. You'll benefit from lower rental rates, better selection, gorgeous weather and the absence of large crowds at your favorite Brunswick area restaurants and activities. Many vacationers use this strategy to find larger homes within budget, or to reserve an oceanfront rental that would otherwise be unavailable during the Summer months.
• In the Brunswick area area, The earlier your group can reserve a vacation home, the better your selection will be. The best rental homes are reserved very early. Reserving your rental home up to 12 months before your travel dates is recommended. Holiday gatherings are excellent times to plan and reserve your vacation rental.
• Some property managers offer promotional rates for veterans and active duty military. It's always a good idea to check with your host or property manager to see if rate reductions are available for your family.
• Property managers frequently offer guests an option to buy trip insurance. Trip insurance, which normally costs between 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any days missed as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance might be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for additional information.
• Find a copy of your local Brunswick area visitors guide magazine when you arrive at the rental property. If your rental doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local shops and visitor centers. In addition to great local articles, visitor guides have deals for nearby accommodations, tours and attractions.

Filter your rental search:

• First, have your family commit to date ranges and a spending budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and the bed configuration your group needs. Historic pet friendly home on ocean has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Specific information regarding bedrooms and bed counts is often accessible on booking pages. If not, email the property management company before you book your home. Remember that most property listings specify the max. guest capacity, which often includes pull out couches in living rooms.
• Visiting for a single event? If so, use a map search to find nearby properties.
• Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for persons with a disability. Confirm all necessary amenities are included before booking
• Do your family pets travel with you? Many vacation homes allow animals, but guidelines and restrictions apply. Allowable pet type, breed, and size are often limited. Ask your property manager before booking, and study your agreement! Extra fees or costs could be applied to your contract.

Advice for a wonderful stay:

• Review arrival and departure procedures before traveling. Take a printed copy, and save the directions to your smartphone.
• To ensure that damages are not attributed to your visit, inspect the property for any problem areas during arrival. Speak to the property manager immediately to report any issues. If there is a dispute about legal responsibility later, having a record of issues and contact attempts will be useful.
• Hosts are great sources of help! Feel free to ask questions during your stay.
• Be respectful of your neighbors. Frequently, adjacent homes are filled by permanent residents. Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking regulations can make a stay significantly more pleasurable.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Locals can frequently help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to find the best seashells, have a great night out, or the best spots for crabbing?
• Lock your vacation home while you're out. Protect your property!
• Re-check every room of the rental property to confirm that you've packed all of your belongings on check-out day. Re-check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden belongings. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Please make sure to walk through the rental one final time and look for damages to contents or the property itself. We recommend walking through with the property manager whenever possible. If the host is not available, remember to take photos of the rental to record its condition.
• Leave a review! Hosts rely on excellent feedback to propel future bookings. They'll be much obliged for your feedback. Alternatively, if something went awry, other families will be thankful you shared your experience and help them have the best future vacation. Remember to be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the manager had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded reasonably to solve it.
