Tips to get the very best vacation home experience:

How to get the best value:

• Book your vacation rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules often become available a year in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many families reserve their Summer rentals during Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years Eve get-togethers. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Reserve your vacation in the Fall or Spring shoulder seasons to enjoy warm weather while saving money and avoiding crowds.
• Owners sometimes offer discounts or promotional rates for veterans. Check with your host or property manager to see if special discounts are available for your family.
• Booking websites often offer renters an option to purchase trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed days as a result of medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance might be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for additional information.
• Find a copy of your local Wrightsville Beach visitors guide upon arrival. If your rental property doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local shops and visitor centers. In addition to great local articles, travel guide magazines contain discounts for nearby restaurants, attractions, and tours.

Make a plan and choose yourvacation home:

• Begin by selecting trip dates and a maximum budget.
• Decide how many bedrooms and the bed configuration you need. Summertime Special! ROOMY for 10 guests!, Ocean Views, Steps to Beach! Arcade! has 5 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our rentals search.
• Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is generally available online. If not, call the property management company before reserving the home. Remember that most property listings specify the max. guest capacity, which oftentimes includes pull out couches in living rooms.
• If your group is vacationing with pets, you must book a property that allows animals. Make sure to ask for information on breed, size, and type requirements. Some property owners charge additional pet fees.
• Are you visiting for a specific attraction? Use a map search to browse nearby rentals.
• Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for guests that require the use of a wheelchair. Make certain to inquire about specialized equipment and wheel chair accessibility.

Advice for a great stay:

• Store the owner's information in your smartphone.
• Property managers are there to help! Feel free to ask questions during your stay.
• Lock your rental home while you are away. Keep your property safe!
• To ensure that damages are not attributed to your stay, make a record of any problem areas upon check in. Contact the rental manager immediately to report your findings. If there is a dispute, having the recorded issues and contact attempts will be valuable.
• Be a good neighbor. Frequently, adjacent homes are occupied by permanent residents. Respecting late-night noise limits and parking rules is the right thing to do.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Local residents can typically point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to spend a rainy day, have a great night out, or the best spots for shopping?
• At departure, take a final walk-through to make sure you did not forget anything. Re-check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden items. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Did your group have a fantastic stay? Most rental management companies make it easy for customers to provide feedback. If your property and/or property management company was fantastic, they would love to hear it. If anything was inoperable and they failed to correct it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make it a point as part of your review.
