Sunset Beach rental property booking tips and tricks:

When to book & When to go:

• The sooner you can book a vacation rental, the better your selection will be. The best vacation rentals are reserved early. Reserving your rental property six - twelve months before your vacation is recommended. Holiday gatherings are excellent times to plan and reserve your vacation home.
• Booking in Spring or Fall is a good way to save money on your vacation home. Rental rates are lower, and you'll find a better selection of desirable properties.
• Hosts and Property managers sometimes offer rate reductions for veterans. It's always a good idea to check with your host or property manager to see if special offers are available for your family before you book.
• Property management companies typically offer customers an option to add trip insurance. Trip insurance, which normally costs between 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed time as a result of medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance might be a a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for specifics.
• Find a copy of your local visitors guide upon checking in. If your rental doesn't have one, you can find them at local grocery stores and visitor centers. In addition to great information, travel guide magazines contain coupons for nearby tours and attractions.

Use filters to search efficiently:

• To start, have your group select vacation dates and a spending budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and the configuration you need. The Sea Palm, A Coastal Cottage Steps From The Beach!!! has 4 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Specific details about bedrooms and bed types is usually available on booking pages. If you don't see them listed, contact the host before you reserve the property. Remember that most properties list the maximum guest capacity, which oftentimes includes pull-out couches and bunk beds. You'll need to determine what configuration is best for your family.
• If your family is traveling with pets, you'll need to book a property that allows animals. Get details on breed, weight, and type restrictions. Be aware that some hosts charge additional pet fees.
• If there's a certain Wrightsville Beach destination you love, look for rentals that are either close by, or those that cater to your desires.
• Suitable accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for guests with disabilities. Confirm all necessary amenities are included before reserving a rental.

Tips for a wonderful stay:

• Put the owner's contact information in your smartphone.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a hot tub, elevator or kitchen appliance. Contact your host. They are there to help! A brief phone call can prevent quite a few problems.
• Protect the owner (and your stuff!) by keeping the rental locked up when you are away, just like you would at home.
• To make sure no damages are linked to your stay, inspect for any problem areas during check in. E-mail the host immediately to report any pre-existing damages. If there is a dispute about legal responsibility later, having the recorded issues and contact attempts will be useful.
• Respecting quiet hours and parking rules can make a stay more pleasurable. Be a good neighbor. You'll enhance your chance to make some new local friends, and resident neighbors are often a great source for finding the best local scenic spots.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Local residents can often help. Who better to ask where to enjoy a steak with a view, have a great night out, or the best spots for shopping?
• Just prior to departing, take a final walk-through to make sure you did not forget any personal items. Remember to check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden treasure. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Remember to leave feedback! Property owners rely on excellent reviews to inspire more reservations. They'll be thankful for your feedback. Alternatively, if something wasn't right, other vacationers will appreciate that you share your review find their best vacation home. Be fair with your review.
