Tips to get the best Wrightsville Beach rental home experience:

Getting the best rental home value:

• June, July, and August are the most expensive months in coastal NC. Booking your vacation rental in the Spring or Fall is a great way to save money on your vacation. Rental rates are lower, and you'll find a larger selection of desirable homes. Many vacationers use this method to find larger homes within budget, or to reserve a beach front vacation rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during the Summer months.
• The earlier your group can book a rental home, the better your selection will be. The best rental properties are booked very early. Reserving your rental home up to 12 months before your vacation dates is recommended. Holiday gatherings are excellent times to plan and reserve your rental property.
• Some hosts offer discounts for veterans and active duty military. Ask your host or property manager if discounts are available for your family before you book.
• Booking websites typically offer guests an option to buy vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which generally will cost between 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed trip time as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unanticipated hotel or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance can be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for more information.
• Many management companies supply Wrightsville Beach area travel guides which often include money-saving deals, either offered directly by local businesses, or through a relationship between the management company and the business itself. You can also find Wrightsville Beach visitors guide magazine and coupon books at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers.

Selecting and booking your Wrightsville Beach rental home:

• Start by selecting the best vacation week and a spending budget.
• Note the number bedrooms and what type of bedroom configuration you need. Rum&Redfish Retreat! Perfect for your family & pet friendly! has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our rental home search.
• Precise details about bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is almost always accessible on booking websites. If not, email the property owner before reserving the home. Note that most properties list the max. guest capacity, which typically includes sofa beds in living rooms. You will need to work out what is right for your vacation group.
• Visiting for a specific attraction or event? Try a map search to find nearby rentals.
• Suitable accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for persons with disabilities. Confirm all required amenities are included before booking.
• If your group is bringing pets, you must book a rental that allows animals. Request information on breed, weight, and type restrictions. Some property managers charge additional pet fees.

Tips for a wonderful stay:

• We recommend storing the manager's information in your smartphone and wallet.
• Document any issues with the rental at check in, and immediately contact the owner. We especially recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain built-in time stamps that are very helpful if a dispute is filed.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a fireplace, stereo or coffee maker. Contact your owner. They are there to help! A brief phone call can prevent lots of concerns.
• Don't forget to respect your neighbors. Often, surrounding homes are occupied by permanent residents. Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking policies is the right thing to do.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Neighbors can often help. Who better to ask where to see a beautiful sunrise or sunset, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fine dining?
• Protect the rental owner (and your stuff!) by keeping the rental locked up when you are gone, just like you would at home.
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before departing, take a walk through the rental property to make sure you've collected all belongings. Re-check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden items. Clean the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Please make sure to walk through the property one final time and look for any damage. We recommend inspecting the property with the property manager whenever possible. If the manager is not available, take photos of the rental to record its condition at check-out.
• Did your family have a wonderful stay? Most rental management companies make it easy for customers to provide comments. If your rental property and/or property management company was fantastic, they will likely appreciate your kind words. If anything was out of order and they failed to address it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make a note as part of your feedback.
