The space
Our beautiful beachfront condo, Anchor'D in OIB, is located smack dab on the ocean and is in the heart of all the action. As the new owners this season, we made modest decorative enhancements to the already handsome and hip condo which had just gone through a major remodel.

We take care of all the little things - towels, linens, coffee, and snacks for your first day of arrival - so that you can pack your bag of essentials and let us take care of the rest!

Guests are less than one block from all the action. Let kids and adults frolic in OIB's new play park, complete with water features, amphitheater (Wednesday nighttime Movies & Friday nighttime concert series) and kids' playground. Mini Golf, Sunset Slush, and eateries overlooking the impressive inter coastal waterway are just a 3-min. walk from our condo.

For more fun activities, check out OIB Pier fishing, surf stores for units, the Museum of Coastal Carolina (all things sea creatures), shopping at the local stores and just a short drive away is the cute fishing town of Calabash. If you're into adventure, the Swamp Park -Zip Line and ATV Center are just a few miles away, and one of our favorite ways to watch the sunset with friends is upon the Cruisin' Tikis in Holden Beach.

There is so much to do on our handsome island and beaches. Come and savor. If you have any questions at all please feel complimentary to reach out to the host!

Strategies for getting the best rental home experience:

Sticking to a spending plan:

• Book your vacation home as early as possible. Rental schedules often open 12 months in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many groups book their Summer rentals during holiday get-togethers. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Summer is high season in the Cape Fear area area. To book the largest rental home for your budget, we strongly suggest booking in the Fall or Spring shoulder seasons. You'll enjoy lower rental rates, greater selection, gorgeous weather and the absence of giant crowds at Cape Fear area restaurants, beaches, and activities. Many vacationers use this method to find larger homes within budget, or to reserve an oceanfront rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during the high season. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Cape Fear area vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation on the coast? Christmas, Thanksgiving, and New Years Eve are great times to gather with friends and family at the beach.
• Some property managers offer rate reductions for active duty military and veterans. Make sure to check with your property manager to see if special offers are available for your family.
• Management companies and individual rental owners typically offer customers an option to purchase vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which will generally cost anywhere between 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed days as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance can be a a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for additional information.
• Find a copy of your local Cape Fear area visitors guide magazine when you arrive at the rental property. If your rental home doesn't have one, you can find them at local shops and fuel stations. In addition to great local articles, visitors guides contain discounts for nearby restaurants, attractions, and tours.

Use filters to narrow your rental search:

• Start by selecting potential vacation weeks and a budget.
• Decide how many beds and what type of bedroom configuration your family requires. Anchor'd in OIB Condo in Ocean Isle Beach, NC\n has 1 bedrooms and 1 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our search.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts is normally accessible on booking pages. Otherwise, email or call the property owner before reserving your home. Note that most properties list the max. guest capacity, which typically includes pull out couches in living rooms.
• Some rental properties allow pets, and some do not. Allowable types of family pet, size and breeds may be restricted, and additional costs may apply. Ask the property management company about pet restrictions before booking.
• If there's an individual Cape Fear area beach you long to visit, keep an eye out for properties that are either close by, or those that cater to your desires.
• Proper accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for guests with disabilities. Confirm all required amenities are available and included before reserving a rental

Tips for a fantastic stay:

• Get the host's contact number and arrival/departure procedures for your rental.
• Property managers are there to help! Don't be shy to ask any questions during your stay.
• Ensure you protect the owner (and your things!) by locking and securing the home when you are out, just like you would at home.
• Note any issues with the property upon arrival, and immediately e-mail them to the property manager. We specifically recommend e-mails and text messages, as they usually contain built-in time stamps that are beneficial if there is a dispute.
• Respect the neighborhood. Often, adjacent homes are filled by permanent residents. Respecting noise limits and parking regulations reduces conflict and allows everyone to enjoy their day.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Local residents can often help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to rent beach equipment, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for BBQ?
• Just prior to departing, take a final walk-through to make sure you did not leave anything behind. Make sure to check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden treasure. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Walk through the rental a final time and keep an eye out for any damage. We advise inspecting the property with the host whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the property manager isn't available, take photos and video of the rental to record its condition.
• Remember to leave a review! Property owners rely on great ratings to stimulate more bookings. They'll be much obliged for your review. Alternatively, if something wasn't as described, other vacationers will will be grateful for your experience find their best vacation rental. Please be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the property manager could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded quickly to fix it.
