Our top Rental booking tips and tricks:

Sticking to your spending budget:

• Summer is the most expensive season in Carolina Beach. Booking a rental in Fall or Spring is our favorite way to save money on your vacation home. Rental rates are lower, and you'll find a better selection of acceptable homes. Many vacationers use this strategy to find larger homes within budget, or to book an oceanfront vacation rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during June, July, and August.
• Reserve your vacation home as soon as possible. Rental schedules usually become available 12 months in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many groups book their Summer vacation rentals during holiday gatherings. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Hosts and Property managers sometimes offer special rates for active duty military and veterans. Ask your host or property manager if rate reductions are available for your family.
• Property managers often offer their guests an option to buy trip insurance. Trip insurance, which costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed time as a result of medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for specifics.
• Often, management companies supply Wrightsville Beach area visitors guide magazines which include coupons, either offered independently by local companies, or through a partnership between the management company and the business itself. You can also find visitors guide and coupon books at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers.

How to choose and book the bestrental home:

• To start, have your family commit to a vacation week and a maximum budget.
• Decide how many beds and what type of bedroom configuration your family needs. Carolina Beach Cottage Paws Welcome! has 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms.
• Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts is regularly available on booking pages. If they are not listed, email the host before reserving the home. Remember that most listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which usually includes sofa beds. You will need to determine what bed configuration is best for your family.
• If there's a certain Wrightsville Beach destination you are crazy about, browse homes that are either close by, or those that cater to your desires.
• Proper accessibility can make or break a vacation for guests that require the use of a wheelchair. .
• If your family is traveling with pets, you'll need to book a pet-friendly property. Ask for details on breed, weight, and type requirements. Note that some property owners charge additional pet fees.

During your stay:

• Review check in & check out procedures before traveling. Add a note with the directions to your smartphone, and take a printed backup.
• Document any damages to the rental upon arrival, and immediately send them to the owner. We specifically recommend e-mails and text messages, as they usually contain built-in time stamps that are beneficial if damages are assessed.
• Property managers are great sources of help! Feel free to ask questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Respecting quiet hours and parking restrictions can make a stay significantly more pleasurable. You'll enhance your chance to make local friends, and resident neighbors are usually a great resource to find the best local beaches.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Locals can often help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to go for the best drinks, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for crabbing?
• Lock your vacation home while you're out. Protect the owner's property and your things!
• On check-out day, take a final walk-through to confirm you haven't leave anything behind. Make sure to check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden items. Clean the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Please make sure to walk through the property one final time and scan for any damage. We recommend walking through with the host whenever possible. If the property manager isn't available, remember to take video of the property to record its condition at check-out.
• Did your family have a fantastic stay? Most vacation rental websites make it easy for travelers to provide comments. If your property and/or host was terrific, they would love to hear about it. If anything was amiss and they failed to correct it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make a note as part of your review.
