Our top Rental home tips and tricks:

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

• Reserve your vacation home as soon as possible. Rental schedules generally become available a year in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many families book their Summer rentals during Thanksgiving and Christmas gatherings. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• June, July, and August are the most expensive months along the coast of NC. Booking your vacation rental in Spring or Fall is a good way to save on your vacation. Rental rates are lower, and you'll find a better selection of suitable properties. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, or to reserve a beach front rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during the high season. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Wrightsville Beach vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation near the ocean? Thanksgiving and Christmas are great times to gather with family and friends at the beach.
• Some owners offer discounts or promotional rates for veterans and active duty military. It's always a good idea to check with your host or property manager to see if special discounts are available for your group.
• Booking websites often offer renters an option to buy vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which commonly costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed days as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather, as well as hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance can be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for specifics.
• Often, property management companies and vacation rental houses supply Wrightsville Beach area travel guide magazines which include special deals, either offered directly by local companies, or through a relationship between the property management company and the business itself. You can also find Wrightsville Beach visitors guide and coupon books at local shops and grocery stores.

Narrow your Search:

• Begin by selecting vacation dates and a spending budget.
• Determine how many beds and the configuration your family needs. Steer on Dock Wilmington Private Mansion Apartment has 2 bedrooms and 1 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our search.
• Precise details about bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is normally available on booking pages. If you don't see them listed, call the property management company before you book the vacation property. Note that most properties list maximum guest capacity, which usually includes pull out couches in living rooms. You will need to establish what is optimal for your vacation.
• Some rental properties allow pets, but others do not. Acceptable types of pet, size and breeds may be restricted, and added charges may apply. Ask the property manager about pets before booking.
• Are you visiting for a single event or attraction? Try a map search to locate nearby rentals.
• Suitable accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for guests that require the use of a wheelchair. Remember to confirm all necessary amenities are available and included before booking

During your stay:

• Review check in & check out procedures before traveling. Add a note with the directions to your smartphone, and take a printed copy.
• Property managers are great sources of help! Don't be shy to ask questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Keep your rental home locked while you are gone! Don't let burglars spoil your holiday.
• To make sure damages are not linked to your visit, make a record of any problem areas during check in. Call the host immediately to document your findings. If there is a dispute about legal responsibility later, having a record of problems and contact attempts will be useful.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like unpleasant visitors bothering your peace. Apply the golden rule for best judgement. Happy residents may even recommend great local food and scenic spots you would have never otherwise known!
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Locals can frequently help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to launch your kayaks, have a great night out, or the best spots for fine dining?
• Don't leave anything behind! Before you drive away, take a walk through the rental to make sure you've collected all of your things. Re-check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden belongings. Clean the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• After your trip, leave a review! Hosts rely on good feedback to propel future bookings. They'll be grateful for your feedback. Alternatively, if something wasn't right, other vacationers will be thankful you shared your experience find their best rental home. Be fair with your review. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the property manager could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded expeditiously to remedy it.
