Bald Head Island vacation rental booking tips:

Getting the most from your rental home budget:

• Summer months are high season in the Wrightsville Beach area. Booking your vacation rental in the Fall or Spring is a good way to save money on your vacation home. Rental rates are lower, and you'll find a larger selection of suitable homes.
• Reserve your vacation home as early as possible. Rental schedules generally open 12 months in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many families reserve their Summer vacations during Thanksgiving and Christmas get-togethers. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property owner if your vacationing group qualifies for a reduced rate.
• Booking websites frequently offer customers an option to obtain trip insurance. Trip insurance, which normally costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed time as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance might be a a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for specifics.
• Look for your local visitors guide upon arrival. If your rental property doesn't have one, you can find them at local shops and visitor centers. In addition to great local information, visitors guide magazines contain deals for local tours and attractions.

Use filters to narrow your search:

• First and foremost, have your group commit to a vacation week and a budget.
• Decide how many beds and the configuration your family requires. The Marsh House - Rate discounted for remaining August weeks! has 6 bedrooms and 7 bathrooms.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts & types is often available online. If not, call the host before reserving the rental. Remember that most listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which oftentimes includes sofa beds. You'll need to determine what is right for your vacation family.
• Are you looking for unique amenities? Most rental search websites include search filters for amenities. Use these filters to your advantage to find the perfect rental home.
• Appropriate accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for persons with disabilities. Make certain to inquire about wheel chair accessibility, pool lifts and specialized equipment needs.
• If your group is vacationing with pets, you'll need to book a pet-friendly property. Get information on breed, size, and type requirements. Some property owners charge additional pet fees.

Tips for a great stay:

• Take a copy of the host's contact number and entry/exit procedures for your rental home. Put the manager's contact information in your smartphone and wallet.
• Upon arrival, record any damages to the rental property and immediately alert the host. Record all coorespondence.
• Hosts are there to help! Don't be shy to ask questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Respect the neighborhood. Often times, nearby homes are filled by permanent residents. Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking regulations is the right thing to do.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Residents can typically help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to grab the best tacos, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for crabbing?
• Keep your rental home locked while you are gone! Don't let crooks spoil your trip.
• At departure, take a final walk-through to confirm you haven't forget any personal items. Remember to check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden belongings. Clean the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Document the condition of the property at check-out. We recommend taking a video during your final walk-through.
• Did you have a great stay? Many rental websites make it easy for customers to provide comments. If your rental and/or property manager was great, they will likely appreciate your kind words. If anything was defective and they failed to address it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make a note as part of your review.
