Tricks and tips to get the perfect Wrightsville Beach rental home experience:

How to get the best rental value:

• The sooner you can book a vacation rental, the better your selection will be. The most desirable rental homes are booked very early. Booking your rental home up to 12 months before your vacation is recommended. Holidays such as Christmas and Thanksgiving are excellent times to search for and reserve your vacation home.
• Summer time is high season in the Wrightsville Beach area. To find the best value, change your group's vacation week to the Spring or Fall months. May, September, and October offer great temperatures, , and reduced traffic. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Wrightsville Beach vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday near the ocean? Christmas, Thanksgiving, and New Years Eve are great times to gather with loved ones at your favorite beach.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property manager whether your group qualifies for a special promotion or discount.
• Booking websites usually offer renters an option to purchase vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which costs 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any days missed as a result of medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for additional information.
• Look for your local Wrightsville Beach visitors guide magazine upon arrival. If your rental home doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local shops and visitor centers. In addition to great local information, travel guide magazines contain discounts for nearby restaurants, attractions, and tours.

How to choose the perfect rental home in the Wrightsville Beach area:

• Select your vacation week and spending budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and the bed configuration your group needs. Historic Cottage Across the Street from Beach has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is almost always available on booking pages. Otherwise, call the property owner before booking the vacation property. Note that most properties list the maximum guest capacity, which oftentimes includes sofa beds.
• If your family is traveling with pets, you must book a pet-friendly vacation rental. Ask for specifics on breed, size, and type requirements. Note that some property owners require additional pet deposits and fees.
• Are you visiting for a single event or attraction? Try a map search to locate nearby rentals.
• Suitable accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for guests with disabilities. Make certain to inquire about specialized equipment and wheel chair accessibility.

Have a wonderful stay:

• Take a copy of the host's phone number and arrival/departure procedures for your .
• Hosts are available to help! Feel free to ask any questions during your stay.
• Ensure you protect the rental owner (and your things!) by locking the property while you are gone, just like you would back home.
• Document any issues with the rental at check in, and immediately e-mail them to the owner. We especially recommend e-mails and text messages, as they usually contain time stamps that are valuable if a dispute is filed.
• Be respectful of your neighbors. Often times, surrounding homes are filled by permanent residents. Respecting noise limits and parking rules is the right thing to do.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Local residents can often help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to book the best tours, have a great night out, or the best spots for fishing?
• On check-out day, complete a walk-through to make sure you have not forget anything. Check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden treasure. Clean the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Walk through the rental one final time and scan for damages to contents or the property itself. We suggest inspecting the property with the property manager whenever possible. If the host is not available, ensure that you take photos of the property to record its condition.
• Did your group have a fantastic time? Most rental websites make it easy for travelers to provide feedback. If your rental and/or host was terrific, they always love to hear your praise. If anything was defective and they failed to address it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make a note as part of your review.
