Tips and Tricks to get the very best rental home experience:

When to visit Wilmington & When to reserve a Wilmington rental home:

• To get the best value, try changing your group's vacation dates to the Spring or Fall months. May, September, and even October offer warmer weather, , and greatly reduced traffic. Many vacationers use this strategy to reserve larger homes, or to reserve an oceanfront rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during the Summer months.
• In the Wrightsville Beach area, The earlier you can book a rental home, the easier your search will be. The best rental properties are booked early. Reserving your rental 6-12 months before your vacation is recommended. Christmas, Thanksgiving and New Years Eve are excellent times to search for and book your rental property.
• Property managers sometimes offer special rates for veterans and active duty military. Check with your host or property manager to see if discounts are available for your family before you book.
• Management companies and individual rental owners usually offer renters an option to buy trip insurance. Trip insurance, which usually will cost you anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for days missed as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance can be a a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for details.
• Look for your local Wrightsville Beach visitors guide when you arrive at the rental property. If your rental home doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local shops and fuel stations. In addition to great local stories, visitors guide magazines have deals for nearby accommodations, tours and attractions.

Planning, selecting, and booking the perfect Wrightsville Beach rental home:

• Choose vacation dates and spending budget.
• Central Location
• Specific information about bedrooms and bed counts & types is generally available on booking pages. If they are not listed, call the host before reserving the vacation home. Note that most listings specify the max. guest capacity, which typically includes pull-out couches.
• If there's a certain Wrightsville Beach attraction you crave, keep an eye out for properties that are either close by, or those that cater to your needs.
• Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for guests that require the use of a wheelchair. Make certain to ask about wheel chair entry, pool lifts and specialized equipment needs.
• If your family is vacationing with pets, filter your search for a pet-friendly rental. Make sure to ask for details on breed, size, and type restrictions. Some hosts charge additional pet fees.

Some things to know before you go:

• Get the property manager's phone number and arrival/departure procedures for your rental home. Store the host's contact information in your smartphone.
• To ensure that no damages are attributed to your family's stay, note any problem areas upon check in. E-mail the property manager right away to document any damages. If there is a dispute, having the recorded problems and contact attempts will be useful.
• Hosts are great sources of help! Feel free to ask any questions during your stay.

• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Neighbors can often help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to launch your kayaks, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for BBQ?
• Lock your rental home while you are away. Protect your property!
• Just before checking out, take a final walk-through to make sure you did not forget any personal items. Remember to check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden belongings. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Document the condition of the property at check-out. We recommend taking a video during your final walk-through.
