How to book the best vacation rental experience:

When to go & When to reserve a rental home:

• Reserve your vacation home as soon as possible. Rental schedules often become available a year in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many groups reserve their Summer rental homes during Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years Eve get-togethers. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• June, July, and August are the most expensive months in Carolina Beach. To book the most suitable rental within your budget, we strongly suggest reserving in the Spring or Fall. You'll enjoy lower rental rates, greater selection, gorgeous weather and the absence of giant crowds at your favorite restaurants and activities. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Wrightsville Beach vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation on the coast? Thanksgiving and Christmas are great times to gather with loved ones at the beach.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property manager or host if your vacationing group qualifies for a special rate.
• Booking websites typically offer renters an option to add vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which commonly will cost anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed trip time as a result of medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel stay or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance can be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for specifics.
• Often, property management companies and vacation rental houses supply Wrightsville Beach area visitors guide magazines which include special deals, either offered independently by local businesses, or through a relationship between the property management company and the business itself. You can also find Wrightsville Beach visitors guide and coupon books at local shops and grocery stores.

Planning, selecting, and booking the rightvacation home:

• Begin by choosing your vacation dates and a maximum budget.
• Determine how many beds and the configuration your family requires. Just For The Shell of It! has 5 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts & types is usually available online. If they are not listed, email the host before you reserve the property. Note that most listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which usually includes pull out couches in living rooms. You'll need to work out what is right for your vacation group.
• If your family is traveling with pets, you'll need to book a pet-friendly property. Get specifics on breed, size, and type restrictions. Note that some property owners charge additional pet fees.
• Visiting for a specific attraction or event? Use a map search to browse nearby properties.
• Suitable accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for guests with disabilities. .

More tips for your visit:

• Be sure you get the host's phone number and check in/check out procedures for your .
• Property managers are great sources of help! Feel free to ask questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Ensure you protect the owner (and your things!) by keeping the rental locked up when you are away, just like you would at home.
• At Check-in, make note of any damages to the rental property and immediately contact the host. Record all coorespondence.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like troublesome visitors disrupting your peaceful home life. Practice the golden rule for common sense. If they like you, locals might even recommend great beaches and scenic spots you would've not otherwise known about!
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Residents can usually point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to order delicious takeout, have a great night out, or the best spots for fishing?
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before departing, take a walk through the rental to confirm you've collected all personal belongings. Re-check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden items. Clean out the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Walk through the rental one final time and scan for damage. We recommend inspecting the property with the property manager whenever possible. If the host is not available, ensure that you take video and pictures of the rental to record its condition at check-out.
• Did you have a excellent vacation? Many rental managers make it easy for customers to provide reviews. If your rental property and/or host was great, they would love to hear it. If anything was amiss and they failed to fix it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make a note as part of your comments.
