Tricks and tips for getting the best Carolina Beach rental home experience:

When to go & When to reserve a Carolina Beach rental home:

• Book your vacation rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules often become available a year in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many families book their Summer rental homes during Winter holiday get-togethers. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Reserving a rental home in Fall or Spring months is an excellent way to save on your vacation. Rates are lower, and you'll find a better selection of acceptable homes. Many vacationers use this method to find larger homes within budget, or to reserve a beach front vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during the Summer months.
• Some hosts offer discounts for veterans. Check with your host or property manager to see if rate reductions are available for your group.
• Property managers typically offer renters an option to purchase vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which generally will cost anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed vacation time as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance can be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for more information.
• Look for your local Southport area magazine when you arrive at the rental property. If your rental home doesn't have one, you can find them at local grocery stores and visitor centers. In addition to great local information, visitors guides have offers and deals for nearby shops and restaurants.

Selecting the perfect vacation home:

• Choose your vacation dates and max budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and the bed configuration your family requires. Sand Fiddler Summary: has 1 bedrooms and 1 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our Southport rental home search.
• Precise information regarding bedrooms and bed counts & types is regularly available on booking pages. If not, email the property management company before you reserve your home. Note that most property listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which frequently includes pull-out couches.
• If your group is traveling with pets, you'll need to book a rental that allows animals. Request specifics on breed, size, and type requirements. Note that some property owners charge additional pet fees.
• Does your family require specific amenities? Most rental websites include search filters for amenities.
• Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for persons with disabilities. Confirm all required amenities are available before booking.

Know before you go:

• Get the property manager's phone number and check in/check out procedures for your rental. Put the host's information in your smartphone.
• Property managers are there to help! Don't be shy to ask any questions during your stay.
• Protect the property owner (and your things!) by locking and securing the home when you are away, just like you would back home.
• At Check-in, make note of any issues with the rental property and immediately alert the owner. Record all correspondence in case a dispute arises.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like unpleasant vacationers bothering your peaceful home. Practice the golden rule for common sense. 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! Local residents can frequently point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to rent beach equipment, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fine dining?
• Don't leave anything behind! Before departing, take a walk through the rental property to make sure you've collected all belongings. Make sure to check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden belongings. Clean the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Leave a review! Property owners rely on good feedback to compel more reservations. They'll be thankful for your review. Alternatively, if something wasn't as described, other vacationing families will be thankful you shared your feedback find their best vacation home. Remember to be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the owner had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded reasonably to fix it.
