Tips and Tricks for getting the best rental experience:

Getting the most from your rental home budget:

• The earlier your group can reserve a vacation home, the better your selection will be. The best properties are reserved very early. Reserving your vacation property up to twelve months before your vacation is recommended. Winter holidays are excellent times to search for and book your rental.
• Reserve your Wrightsville Beach vacation in Fall or Spring months to get the benefit of beautiful weather while saving money and avoiding crowds. Many vacationers use this method to find larger homes within budget, or to book an oceanfront rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during the Summer. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Wrightsville Beach vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday near the ocean? Thanksgiving and Christmas are great times to gather with friends and family at the beach.
• Property management companies sometimes offer discounts for veterans. Ask your host or property manager if special offers are available for your family.
• Property management companies usually offer guests an option to buy trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which usually will cost between 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any days missed as a result of medical-related issues or weather, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for additional information.
• Find a copy of your local Wrightsville Beach visitors guide magazine upon arrival. If your rental property doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local grocery stores and visitor centers. In addition to great articles, visitors guides contain coupons for local restaurants, attractions, and tours.

How to pick the perfect rental home:

• Start by having your family select dates and a maximum budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and the configuration your family requires. A bike ride from the beach has 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our search.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts & types is almost always available on booking pages. If they are not listed, contact the property management company before reserving the vacation home. Note that most properties list the max. guest capacity, which oftentimes includes pull-out couches. You'll need to work out which bed configuration is best for your vacation family.
• Some properties allow pets, and others don't. Allowable types of dog or cat, weight and breeds may be restricted, and additional charges may apply. Ask the host about pet restrictions before booking.
• Is your family looking for special amenities? Most rental websites include amenity lists and search filters.
• Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for persons with a disability. Confirm all required amenities are available before booking.

Some things to know before you go:

• Review check in & check out procedures before leaving home. Save the directions to your smartphone, and take a printed copy.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a fireplace, intercom or washer/dryer. Contact your host. They are there to help! A brief telephone call prevents many difficulties.
• Lock your rental while you are out. Keep your property safe!
• Record any damages to the rental upon arrival, and immediately e-mail them to the host. We especially recommend e-mails and text messages, as they usually contain built-in time stamps that are valuable if damages are attributed to your stay.
• Be a good neighbor. Frequently, adjacent homes are filled by permanent residents. Respecting quiet hours and parking regulations reduces conflict and allows everyone to enjoy their day.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Neighbors can usually help. Who better to ask where to order delicious takeout, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for BBQ?
• Upon check-out, take a walk-through to confirm you have not forget any personal items. Check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden belongings. Clean the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Inspect the property a final time and look for any damage. We recommend walking through with the property manager whenever possible. If the manager is not available, ensure that you take video and pictures of the property to record its condition.
• Did your family have a terrific vacation? Many rental websites make it easy for guests to provide reviews. If your rental and/or property manager was fantastic, they always love to hear your praise. If anything was inoperable and they failed to correct it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make a note as part of your feedback.
