Tips for getting the perfect Wilmington rental home experience:

Getting the most from your vacation rental budget:

• Summer months are the most expensive season in Wilmington. To book the best vacation home within your budget, we strongly suggest booking in Fall or Spring months. You'll benefit from lower rates, better selection, warm weather and the absence of giant crowds at your favorite restaurants and activities. Many vacationers use this method to find larger homes within budget, or to book an oceanfront rental that would otherwise be unavailable during June, July, and August. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Southport vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday on the coast? Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with loved ones at your favorite beach.
• In the Southport area, The sooner you can book a rental home, the easier your search will be. The most desirable rental homes are reserved early. Booking your rental home six to twelve months before your vacation dates is recommended. Holidays such as Christmas and Thanksgiving are excellent times to plan and book your rental.
• Property managers sometimes offer promotional rates for veterans and active duty military. Ask your host or property manager if special offers are available for your family.
• Management companies and individual rental owners frequently offer their guests an option to purchase trip insurance. Trip insurance, which will generally cost between 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any days missed as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance might be a a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for details.
• Many management companies and vacation rental houses supply Southport area travel guides which often include coupons, either offered directly by local businesses, or by way of a relationship with the property management company and the business itself. You can also find Southport visitors guide and coupon books at local gas stations and shopping centers.

How to pick the perfect rental in Wilmington:

• First, have your group choose trip dates and a max budget.
• Decide how many beds and the bed configuration your family needs. Escape on the Cape - Riverfront Sunset Views in Downtown Wilmington has 1 bedrooms and 1 bathrooms.
• Specific information about bedrooms and bed counts & types is generally available online. If you don't see them listed, email or call the property manager before you book the vacation home. Remember that most listings specify the max. guest capacity, which typically includes pull-out couches and bunk beds. You'll need to establish what configuration is suitable for your vacation.
• Are you visiting for a single attraction or event? Use a map search to find nearby rentals.
• Appropriate accessibility can make or break a vacation for those with limited mobility. .
• Some rentals allow pets, and some don't. Allowable types of dog or cat, weight and breeds may be restricted, and added charges may apply. Ask the owner about your furry family members before booking.

Know before you go:

• Get the property manager's contact number and entry/exit procedures for your rental home.
• To make certain that damages are not linked to your visit, make note of any problem areas during arrival. Contact the rental manager immediately to relay your findings. If there is a dispute about who is responsible, having a record of issues and contact attempts will be valuable.
• Property managers are there to help! Feel free to ask questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Respect the neighborhood. Often times, surrounding homes are occupied by permanent residents. Respecting quiet hours and parking rules reduces conflict and allows everyone to enjoy their day.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Residents can typically help. Who better to ask where to charter a fishing boat, have a great night out, or the best spots for crabbing?
• Protect the owner (and your things!) by locking and securing the home when you are away, just like you would at home.
• Upon check-out, complete a final walk-through to make sure you haven't leave anything behind. Check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden treasure. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Walk through the property a final time and keep an eye out for any damage. We recommend inspecting the property with the property manager whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the property manager isn't available, remember to take video of the property to record its condition.
• Did your group have a fantastic vacation? Most rental home management companies make it easy for vacationers to provide reviews. If your rental and/or property management company was terrific, they will likely appreciate your kind words. If anything was defective and they failed to correct it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make it a point as part of your comments.
