Tricks and tips for getting the perfect Bald Head Island vacation home experience:

Sticking to your spending budget:

• In the Wrightsville Beach area, The earlier you can book a rental home, the better your selection will be. The most desirable vacation rentals are reserved very early. Booking your rental up to 12 months before your vacation is recommended. Winter holidays are excellent times to search for and reserve your rental home.
• To find the best vacation home within your budget, we strongly suggest booking in Fall or Spring. You'll enjoy lower rental rates, greater selection, beautiful weather and the absence of giant crowds at Wrightsville Beach restaurants, tours, and activities.
• Some property managers offer discounts for veterans and active duty military. Make sure to check with your host or property manager to see if discounts are available for your group.
• Management companies and individual rental owners often offer customers an option to purchase trip insurance. Trip insurance, which commonly will cost 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed vacation time as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as evacuation costs or charges, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for more information.
• Often, property management companies and vacation rental houses supply Wrightsville Beach area travel guide magazines that include money-saving offers, either offered directly by local businesses, or through a partnership between the management company and the business itself. You can also find Wrightsville Beach area magazine and coupon books at local gas stations and shopping centers.

Selecting and booking your Wrightsville Beach vacation home:

• Select a designated group leader, choose your trip dates, and choose a spending budget.
• Determine how many beds and the bed configuration your family requires. Updated Luxury, Family Friendly - Kayak Our Dock, Clubs has 3 bedrooms and 8 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our vacation rental search.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is almost always available on booking websites. If you don't see them listed, call the property manager before you book the vacation home. Note that most property listings specify the max. guest capacity, which often includes sofa beds. You'll need to work out what configuration is right for your vacation.
• Some rentals allow pets, but some don't. Allowable types of family pet, size and breeds may be restricted, and added costs may apply. Ask the property management company about allowable breeds and types before booking.
• If there's an individual Wrightsville Beach destination you simply love, search for rentals that are either nearby, or those that cater to your requirements.
• Proper accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for persons with a disability. .

During your stay:

• We recommend storing the manager's contact information in your smartphone.
• Property managers are great sources of help! Feel free to ask questions during your stay.
• Protect the rental owner (and your things!) by locking and securing the home when you are gone, just like you would at home.
• Make a record of any issues with the property during check in, and immediately contact the property manager. We especially recommend e-mails and text messages, as they usually contain time stamps that are beneficial if a dispute is filed.
• Respect the neighborhood. Often times, adjacent homes are occupied by permanent residents. Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking regulations reduces conflict and allows everyone to enjoy their day.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Local residents can typically point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to see a beautiful sunrise or sunset, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for BBQ?
• Double-check the rental property to confirm that you've packed all of your belongings at check-out. Check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden items. Clean out the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Did you have a great stay? Many rental managers make it easy for customers to provide feedback. If your rental property and/or property manager was fantastic, they always love to hear your praise. If anything was amiss 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 comments.
