Our top Vacation rental tips and tricks:

When to book a Wrightsville Beach rental home & When to go:

• Summer months are high season in Carolina Beach. To get the best value, shift your group's vacation week to the Spring or Fall shoulder seasons. May, September, and October offer excellent temperatures, less crowded beaches, and greatly reduced traffic. Many vacationers use this strategy to reserve larger homes, or to book a beach front rental that would otherwise be unavailable during June, July, and August.
• Reserve your vacation home as early as possible. Rental schedules generally open 12 months in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many groups reserve their Summer rentals during Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years Eve get-togethers. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property manager whether your group qualifies for a reduced rate.
• Booking websites typically offer customers an option to add trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which usually will cost you between 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for days missed as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance can be a a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for more information.
• Many management companies supply Wrightsville Beach area travel guides which include money-saving deals, either offered independently by local companies, or by way of a relationship between the rental 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.

How to pick the perfect vacation home:

• Choose your vacation dates and budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and what type of bedroom configuration your group needs. Great Ocean Views - right across the street from the beach! has 6 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our rentals search.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts & types is usually available on booking websites. Otherwise, email or call the property management company before you book the rental. Note that most listings specify maximum guest capacity, which frequently includes sofa beds. You'll need to work out what configuration is suitable for your group.
• Are you looking for specific amenities? Most rental search websites include amenity lists and search filters. Use these to your advantage to find the perfect rental home.
• Proper accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for guests that require the use of a wheelchair. Remember to confirm all necessary amenities are included before booking
• If your group is bringing pets, you'll need to search for a property that allows animals. Ask for details on breed, size, and type restrictions. Some hosts require additional pet deposits and fees.

Considerations for your stay:

• Review check in & check out procedures before leaving home. Take a printed copy, and save the instructions to your phone.
• During check-in, record any damages to the rental property and immediately alert the property manager. Record all coorespondence.
• Property managers are available to help! Don't be shy to ask any questions during your stay.
• Be respectful of your neighbors. Often, surrounding homes are occupied by local residents. Respecting late-night noise limits and parking regulations reduces conflict and allows everyone to enjoy their day.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Local residents can often point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to charter a fishing boat, have a great night out, or the best spots for crabbing?
• Protect the rental owner (and your stuff!) by locking the property while you are gone, just like you would back home.
• Don't leave anything behind! Before you drive away, walk through the rental property to confirm you've collected all belongings. Re-check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden belongings. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Please make sure to walk through the rental one final time and look for any damage. We recommend inspecting the property with the property manager whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the manager isn't available, remember to take photos and video of the rental to record its condition at check-out.
• After your trip, leave a review! Hosts rely on excellent reviews to drive more reservations. They'll be grateful for your review. Alternatively, if something went awry, other families will appreciate that you share your feedback find their best rental home. Please be fair with your feedback If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the owner could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded reasonably to fix it.
