Wilmington rental home tips and tricks:

How to get the best rental home value:

• Summertime is the most expensive season in Wilmington. Booking a rental in the Fall or Spring shoulder seasons is a good way to save money on your rental home. Rental rates are lower, and you'll find a better selection of acceptable properties. Many vacationers use this method to find larger homes within budget, or to book an oceanfront vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable during the Summer.
• The sooner your group can reserve a home, the easier your search will be. The most desirable rental homes are reserved very early. Reserving your vacation home six - twelve months before your travel dates is recommended. Holidays such as Christmas and Thanksgiving are excellent times to plan and reserve your vacation home.
• Hosts and Property managers sometimes offer discounts or promotional rates for veterans. Ask your host or property manager if rate reductions are available for your family before you book.
• Property management companies usually offer customers an option to purchase vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which normally costs between 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for days missed as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance can be a a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for specifics.
• Look for your local visitors guide when you check-in. If your rental doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local shops and fuel stations. In addition to great information, travel guide magazines have money saving offers on local shops and restaurants.

Planning, picking, and booking your prefectrental home:

• First, have your family decide on the best dates and a maximum budget.
• Decide how many bedrooms and the bed configuration your family needs. PalmTreeHouse has 1 bedrooms and 1 bathrooms.
• Specific details about bedrooms and bed counts & types is normally accessible online. If not, email or call the host before you book the property. Remember that most properties list maximum guest capacity, which often includes sofa beds and bunks.
• Is your group looking for particular amenities? Most rental websites include amenity lists and search filters.
• Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for persons with a disability. Confirm all necessary amenities are available before booking.
• If your group is vacationing with pets, search for a pet-friendly vacation rental. Request details on breed, size, and type requirements. Usually, hosts require additional pet deposits and fees.

Know before you go:

• Review check in & check out procedures before traveling. Add a note with the directions to your smartphone, and take a printed copy.
• Record any damages to the rental upon arrival, and immediately contact the owner. We especially recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain built-in time stamps that can be beneficial if a dispute is filed.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a fireplace, intercom or kitchen appliance. Contact your property manager. They are there to help! A brief text message prevents a lot of difficulties.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like obnoxious vacationers disrupting your peaceful home. Apply the golden rule for best judgement. If they like you, locals might even recommend great beaches and places you would have never otherwise known about!
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Locals can frequently help. Who better to ask where to get the best breakfast in town, have a great night out, or the best spots for shopping?
• Lock your rental property while you're out! Don't let burglars spoil your trip.
• Just prior to departing, take a final walk-through to make sure you haven't forget anything. Check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden belongings. Clean the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Go through the property one final time and keep an eye out for any damage. We suggest inspecting the property with the property manager whenever you can. If the manager is not available, remember to take photos of the property to record its condition at check-out.
• Did your family have a excellent stay? Most rental managers make it easy for vacationers to provide reviews. If your rental property and/or property manager was wonderful, they will likely appreciate your kind words. If anything was defective and they failed to correct it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make it a point as part of your comments.
