Getting the best Oak Island rental experience:

Money saving strategies:

• Book your Cape Fear area rental home in the Fall or Spring to enjoy gorgeous weather while saving money and avoiding crowded roads, restaurants, and activities. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, or to book a beach front vacation rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during the high season.
• Book your vacation home as soon as possible. Rental schedules often become available 12 months in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many families book their Summer rental homes during holiday get-togethers. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Hosts and Property managers sometimes offer discounts or promotional rates for veterans and active duty military. Remember to ask your property manager if special offers are available for your group before you book.
• Management companies and individual rental owners typically offer customers an option to buy vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which commonly will cost you 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed days as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance can be a a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for details.
• Find a copy of your local Cape Fear area visitors guide magazine upon checking in. If your rental property doesn't have one, you can find them at local shops and fuel stations. In addition to great articles, travel guide magazines have deals for nearby accommodations and attractions.

How to pick the best rental in Oak Island:

• Choose a designated group leader, select your vacation week, and select a maximum budget.
• Decide how many bedrooms and the configuration you need. 3BR\/3BA Home - walk to the beach & shops Dog Friendly, Sleeps 8 has 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our Cape Fear area rentals search.
• Precise information regarding bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is generally accessible on booking websites. If not, reach out to the host before you book your home. Remember that most listings specify the max. guest capacity, which usually includes sofa beds.
• Does your family require unique amenities? Most rental search websites include amenity lists and search filters.
• Suitable accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for those with limited mobility. Confirm all required amenities are available before reserving a rental.
• Do your family pets travel with you? Although a number of vacation homes allow pets or animals, guidelines and costs vary per property. Type of pet, size and breeds may be limited. Remember to ask the property manager before booking, and study your agreement! Extra fees or costs may be applied to your agreement.

Tips to have a fantastic stay:

• Add the property manager's contact information to your smartphone. Take a copy of arrival/departure procedures.
• Record any damages to the property upon arrival, and immediately e-mail them to the host. We especially recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain built-in time stamps that can be valuable if there is a dispute.
• Hosts are available to help! Feel free to ask questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Be respectful. Frequently, surrounding homes are filled by permanent residents. Respecting noise limits and parking rules reduces conflict and allows everyone to enjoy their day.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Residents can usually help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to grab the best tacos, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fine dining?
• Lock your rental home while you're out. Protect your property!
• On check-out day, take a final walk-through to confirm you have not forget anything. Remember to check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden items. Clean the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Inspect the rental a final time and keep an eye out for damage. We advise inspecting the property with the host whenever possible. If the host is not available, take video and pictures of the rental to record its condition at check-out.
• Did your family have a fantastic stay? Many rental managers make it easy for clients to provide feedback. If your property and/or host was fantastic, they will likely appreciate your kind words. If anything was imperfect and they failed to correct it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make a note as part of your comments.
