Our top Wrightsville Beach rental property booking tips:

How to get the best value:

• The sooner your group can book a vacation rental, the better your selection will be. The most desirable rental properties are booked very early. Reserving your rental home 6-12 months before your vacation dates is recommended. Christmas, Thanksgiving and New Years Eve are excellent times to plan and reserve your vacation rental.
• June, July, and August are the most expensive months in the Wrightsville Beach area. Reserve your vacation home in Fall or Spring to get the benefit of beautiful weather while saving money and avoiding crowds.
• Owners sometimes offer promotional rates for veterans and active duty military. Ask your host or property manager if special discounts are available for your group before you book.
• Property management companies often offer customers an option to add trip insurance. Trip insurance, which normally will cost you between 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed trip time as a result of medical-related issues or weather, as well as evacuation costs or charges, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance might be a a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for additional information.
• Many management companies and vacation rental houses supply Wrightsville Beach area visitors guide magazines that include money-saving offers, either offered independently by local companies, or by way of a relationship between the management company and the business itself. You can also find Wrightsville Beach visitors guide magazine and coupon books at local gas stations and shopping centers.

Choosing the perfect vacation rental:

• Choose vacation week and spending budget.
• Decide how many bedrooms and what type of bedroom configuration your family needs. 2nd Row, 6BR, 3BA, Huge Heated Pool, separate Cottage, Dog-Friendly has 6 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our search.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed types is usually accessible on booking websites. If not, call the property owner before you reserve the vacation home. Remember that most property listings specify the max. guest capacity, which often includes pull out couches in living rooms.
• Some rental properties allow pets, and others do not. Allowable types of family pet, size and breeds may be restricted, and additional fees may apply. Ask your host about pets before booking.
• Looking for unique amenities? Most rental search websites include amenity lists and search filters.
• Appropriate accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for persons with a disability. .

More considerations:

• We recommend storing the owner's contact information in your smartphone.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a fireplace, television set or thermostat. Contact your property manager. They are there to help! A brief phone call can prevent many difficulties.
• Lock your rental property while you're gone! Don't let burglars spoil your family vacation.
• To make sure damages are not attributed to your family's visit, make note of any problem areas upon check in. Get in touch with the rental manager immediately to record your findings. If there is a dispute about legal responsibility later, having a record of concerns and contact attempts will be valuable.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like unpleasant visitors bothering your home life. Employ the golden rule for best judgement. Happy residents may even recommend great beaches and scenic spots you would've never otherwise known about!
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Locals can typically point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to find the best seashells, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for bird watching?
• Just before checking out, take a walk-through to confirm you did not leave anything behind. Check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden belongings. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Go through the property one final time and keep an eye out for any damage. We recommend walking through with the property manager whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the host is not available, remember to take photographs of the rental to record its condition.
• Did you have a great stay? Many vacation rental websites make it easy for clients to provide feedback. If your rental property and/or property manager was great, they would love to hear about it. If anything was out of order and they failed to correct it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make it a point as part of your review.
