Rental booking tips:

Sticking to your spending plan:

• June, July, and August are the most expensive months along the coast of NC. To get the best value, shift your family's Wrightsville Beach vacation dates to the Spring or Fall months. May, September, and even October offer warmer weather, less crowded beaches, and reduced traffic. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the 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 family and friends at your favorite beach.
• Book your vacation rental as early as possible. Rental schedules generally become available a year in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many groups reserve their Summer rentals during Thanksgiving and Christmas get-togethers. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property owner whether your family qualifies for a special promotion or discount.
• Management companies and individual rental owners often offer customers an option to add trip insurance. Trip insurance, which costs between 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed days as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance can be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for specifics.
• Look for your local Wrightsville Beach area magazine upon checking in. If your rental property doesn't have one, you can find them at local shops and visitor centers. In addition to great information, travel guide magazines contain deals for nearby restaurants, attractions, and tours.

Choosing and booking yourrental:

• Select a group leader, choose your vacation week, and choose a spending budget.
• Decide how many beds and the configuration your family needs. Just 3 Blocks from the beach! Exceptional Water\/Marsh View From Deck has 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms.
• Precise details about bedrooms and bed counts & types is generally available on booking pages. If you don't see them listed, email or call the property management company before reserving your home. Note that most property listings specify maximum guest capacity, which typically includes pull-out couches.
• Are you visiting for a single event? Try a map search to locate nearby properties.
• Appropriate accessibility can make or break a vacation for the less-mobile. Confirm all necessary amenities are available before booking.
• If your group is vacationing with pets, you must book a pet-friendly property. Make sure to ask for details on breed, size, and type restrictions. Often, property managers require additional pet deposits and fees.

Advice for a great stay:

• Store the owner's contact information in your smartphone.
• To make certain damages are not linked to your family's stay, inspect the property for any problem areas during check in. Get in touch with the host right away to report any issues. If there is a dispute, having the recorded problems and contact attempts will be very helpful.
• Property managers are available to help! Don't be shy to ask questions during your stay.
• Don't forget to respect your neighbors. Often, adjacent homes are occupied by local residents. Respecting late-night noise limits and parking regulations can make a stay significantly more pleasurable.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Locals can usually point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to find the fresh catch of the day, have a great night out, or the best spots for bird watching?
• Lock your rental while you're out. Protect the owner's property and your things!
• Double-check the rental property to confirm that you've packed all of your family's items on check-out day. Remember to check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden items. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Did you have a great time? Most rental managers make it easy for customers to provide feedback. If your property and/or host was fantastic, they always love to hear your praise. If anything was imperfect and they failed to address it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make a note as part of your review.
