Strategies for getting the perfect Carolina Beach rental home experience:

How to get the best rental home value:

• To get the best value, try shifting your group's vacation to the Spring or Fall seasons. May, September, and even October offer pleasant weather, less crowded beaches, and greatly reduced traffic.
• The sooner you can book, the easier your search will be. The best properties are reserved early. Booking your rental home 6-12 months before your vacation dates is recommended. Holiday gatherings are excellent times to plan and reserve your vacation home.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property owner whether your vacationing group qualifies for a price reduction.
• Property managers usually offer renters an option to obtain trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which usually costs 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any days missed as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance can be a a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for program terms and fees.
• Often, management companies supply Wrightsville Beach area visitors guides which include money-saving deals, either offered independently by local businesses, or through a relationship with the rental 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.

Planning, selecting, and booking a perfectrental:

• Select a designated group leader, select your dates, and choose a budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and what type of bedroom configuration your group needs. Sand Fiddler Summary: has 2 bedrooms and 1 bathrooms.
• Specific information about bedrooms and bed counts & types is generally available on booking websites. If you don't see them listed, contact the property owner before booking the rental. Remember that most property listings specify the max. guest capacity, which usually includes pull-out couches and bunk beds.
• If there's an individual Wrightsville Beach attraction you long to visit, keep an eye out for homes that are either nearby, or those that cater to your requirements.
• Suitable accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for the less-mobile. Confirm all required amenities are available and included before booking.
• Some rental properties allow pets, and others don't. Allowable types of family pet, size and breeds may be restricted, and additional charges may apply. Ask the host about your furry family members before booking.

During your stay:

• Be sure you get the property manager's phone number and entry/exit procedures for your rental property. We recommend storing the host's contact information in your smartphone.
• Make a record of any issues with the rental during check in, and immediately send them to the owner. We especially recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain time stamps that are beneficial if damages are attributed to your stay.
• Hosts are there to help! Don't be shy to ask questions during your stay.
• Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking regulations can make a stay more pleasurable. Be a good neighbor. You will magnify your chance to make some new local friends, and resident neighbors are an excellent source for finding the best local beaches.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Local residents can often help. Who better to ask where to find the fresh catch of the day, have a great night out, or the best spots for shopping?
• Ensure you protect the rental owner (and your things!) by locking the rental when you are out, just like you would at home.
• Just before checking out, take a walk-through to make sure you didn't leave anything behind. Remember to check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden items. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Walk through the rental a final time and look for any damage. We suggest walking through with the property manager whenever possible. If the manager is not available, remember to take video and pictures of the rental to record its condition.
• Did your group have a wonderful time? Most rental websites make it easy for customers to provide reviews. If your rental and/or host was great, they would love to hear about it. If anything was defective and they failed to correct it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make it a point as part of your comments.
