Tips for getting the perfect vacation rental experience:

How to get the best value:

• The sooner you can book a rental home, the easier your search will be. The most desirable vacation homes are booked very early. Booking your rental six - twelve months before your travel dates is recommended. Holiday gatherings are excellent times to plan and book your rental property.
• Reserving a rental home in Spring or Fall is one of our best tips for saving money on your vacation. Rates are lower, and you'll find a better selection of desirable homes.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property owner if your family qualifies for a price reduction or discount.
• Management companies and individual rental owners typically offer customers an option to add vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which normally costs between 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for days missed as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unanticipated hotel or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance can be a a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for program terms and fees.
• Find a copy of your local Cape Fear area area magazine upon arrival. If your rental property doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local shops and fuel stations. In addition to great articles, visitors guides have deals for local tours, shops, and attractions.

Finding the best vacation home in Oak Island:

• Select a designated group leader, choose your dates, and choose a maximum budget.
• Decide how many beds and the configuration you need. Private Saltwater Pool (Heating Optional), With Excellent Ocean Views Only 2 Blocks From the Beach has 4 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our Cape Fear area vacation rental search.
• Precise details about bedrooms and bed counts is commonly available online. Otherwise, call the host before you book the property. Note that most properties list maximum guest capacity, which usually includes pull-out couches and bunk beds.
• Are you traveling with furry, four-legged family members? Although a number of vacation homes allow pets or animals, guidelines and costs vary per property. Allowable pet type, breed, and size are often limited. Remember to ask the property manager before booking, and study your rental agreement! Additional pet fees or charges could be applied to your agreement.
• If there's an individual Cape Fear area destination you crave, look for rentals that are either close by, or those that cater to your needs.
• Proper accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for the less-mobile. Confirm all required amenities are included before reserving a rental

Some things to know before you go:

• Take a copy of the host's phone number and check in/check out procedures for your .
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a hot tub, elevator or coffee maker. Contact your owner. They are there to help! A brief call prevents quite a few difficulties.
• Protect the rental owner (and your things!) by locking the rental while you are away, just like you would at home.
• To make certain that no damages are linked to your family's visit, inspect the property for any problem areas during arrival. message the host immediately to report any issues. If there is a dispute, having a record of concerns and contact attempts will be valuable.
• Be a good neighbor. Often, nearby homes are occupied by local residents. Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking regulations reduces conflict and allows everyone to enjoy their day.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Locals 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 fine dining?
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before you drive away, walk through the rental property to make sure you've collected all personal belongings. Check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden belongings. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Please make sure to walk through the rental one final time and look for any damage. We advise walking through with the host whenever possible. If the property manager isn't available, remember to take photos and video of the rental to record its condition.
• Remember to leave feedback! Hosts rely on good reviews to drive more bookings. They'll be much obliged for your feedback. Alternatively, if something went awry, other vacationing families will be thankful you shared your feedback and help them have the best future vacation. Remember to be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the owner could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded reasonably to fix it.
