Rental home tips:

Sticking to a rental home budget:

• In the Southport area, The sooner you can reserve a home, the easier your search will be. The best rental homes are reserved very early. Booking your rental property up to 12 months before your travel dates is recommended. Holidays such as Christmas and Thanksgiving are excellent times to search for and reserve your rental property.
• Summertime is high season in Wilmington. To book the best vacation home within budget, we strongly suggest booking in the Spring or Fall. You'll benefit from lower rental rates, better selection, beautiful weather and the absence of large crowds at popular Southport attractions and restaurants.
• Some property managers offer rate reductions for active duty military and veterans. Ask your host or property manager if special offers are available for your family before you book.
• Property managers typically offer guests an option to add vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which normally costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed time as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance can be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for specifics.
• Find a copy of your local visitors guide upon arrival. If your rental home doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local shops and fuel stations. In addition to great articles, visitors guides have money saving offers on nearby tours and attractions.

Selecting the perfect vacation rental in Wilmington:

• Choose a designated group leader, select your vacation week, and select a spending budget.
• Determine how many beds and what type of bedroom configuration your family needs. Close to the beach cottage within 1 mile of Carolina Beach Bridge has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed types is often available on booking websites. If you don't see them listed, email or call the property owner before booking your home. Note that most properties list the max. guest capacity, which typically includes pull out couches in living rooms. You will need to establish what is optimal for your vacation family.
• If your group is bringing pets, search for a pet-friendly rental. Ask for information on breed, size, and type requirements. Be aware that some property owners require additional pet deposits and fees.
• Are you visiting for a single event? Try a map search to find nearby properties.
• Proper accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for guests with disabilities. Confirm all required amenities are available before booking

Tips for your stay:

• Get the host's phone number and check in/check out procedures for your rental property.
• Hosts are great sources of help! Feel free to ask questions during your stay.
• Lock your rental home while you're out and about. Protect the owner's property and your things!
• To ensure that no damages are attributed to your family's visit, note any problem areas when you arrive. Speak to the rental manager immediately to document any pre-existing damages. If there is a dispute about who is responsible, having a record of concerns and contact attempts will be valuable.
• Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking restrictions can make a stay significantly more pleasurable. Be a good neighbor. You will enhance your chance to make local friends, and resident neighbors are usually an incredible resource to find the best local beaches.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Locals can frequently point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to launch your kayaks, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for bird watching?
• When it's time to leave, take a final walk-through to confirm you didn't forget any personal items. Remember to check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden treasure. Clean the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Document the condition of the property at check-out. We recommend taking a video during your final walk-through.
• Did you have a fantastic time? Many rental managers make it easy for clients to provide reviews. If your rental and/or host was wonderful, they always love to hear your praise. If anything was out of order and they failed to address it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make a note as part of your comments.
