Getting the best Wilmington vacation home experience:

Cost saving strategies:

• Summertime is high season in Wilmington. Book your vacation home in Fall or Spring to get the benefit of beautiful weather while saving money and avoiding crowds. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Wrightsville Beach vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation on the coast? Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with family and friends at the beach.
• Book your vacation home as early as possible. Rental schedules usually become available twelve months in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many groups reserve their Summer vacations during Christmas and Thanksgiving get-togethers. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Some owners offer discounts for active duty military and veterans. It's always a good idea to check with your host or property manager to see if special offers are available for your group.
• Property management companies typically offer customers an option to purchase trip insurance. Trip insurance, which normally costs between 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed days as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel stay or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance might be a a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for additional information.
• Find a copy of your local Wrightsville Beach visitors guide when you check-in. If your rental doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local shops and visitor centers. In addition to great local articles, visitor guides contain money saving offers on local tours and attractions.

Selecting and booking a perfectrental:

• Start by selecting your potential vacation weeks and a budget.
• Decide how many bedrooms and the bed configuration your family needs. Cozy Riverside Retreat has 1 bedrooms and 1 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our Wrightsville Beach rental home search.
• Specific information about bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is commonly available online. Otherwise, call the host before you book the home. Note that most property listings specify the max. guest capacity, which usually includes pull-out couches and bunk beds.
• Does your group require particular amenities? Most websites include search filters for amenities. Use these to your advantage to find the perfect rental home.
• Suitable accessibility can make or break a vacation for persons with a disability. Confirm all required amenities are available and included before reserving a rental.
• Are you bringing the family pet? Many vacation homes allow animals, but guidelines and restrictions apply. Allowable pet type, breed, and size are often limited. Ask your host before booking, and study your rental agreement! Additional pet fees or costs could be applied to your invoice.

Considerations for your stay:

• Add the owner's contact info to your phone. Take a copy of check in/check out procedures.
• Make a record of any issues with the rental at check in, and immediately send them to the property manager. We especially recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain time stamps that can be useful if damages are assessed.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a hot tub, intercom or WIFI setup. Contact your host. They are there to help! A brief call can prevent quite a few concerns.
• Be respectful. Frequently, nearby homes are occupied by local residents. Respecting quiet hours and parking regulations is the right thing to do.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Local residents can usually help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to enjoy a steak with a view, have a great night out, or the best spots for bird watching?
• Lock your vacation home while you're out and about. Protect the owner's property and your things!
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before departing, walk through the property to make sure you've collected all of your things. Re-check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden items. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Walk through the property one final time and look for damage. We suggest walking through with the property manager whenever possible. If the manager is not available, remember to take photographs of the property to record its condition.
• After your trip, leave feedback! Hosts rely on great reviews to inspire more bookings. They'll be much obliged for your feedback. Alternatively, if something went awry, other families will will be grateful for your feedback and help them have the best future vacation. Please be fair with your feedback If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the host could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded reasonably to solve it.
