Cape Fear area rental property booking tips and tricks:

Get the most from your rental budget:

• The earlier your group can book a rental home, the better your selection will be. The most desirable vacation rentals are booked very early. Reserving your rental six - twelve months before your vacation dates is recommended. Holiday gatherings are excellent times to plan and reserve your rental home.
• June, July, and August are high season in the Cape Fear area area. Booking your vacation home in Fall or Spring is a great way to save money on your vacation home. Rental rates are lower, and you'll find a larger selection of acceptable homes. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Cape Fear area vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday near the ocean? Christmas, Thanksgiving, and New Years Eve are great times to gather with family and friends at your favorite beach.
• Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property owner whether your vacationing group qualifies for a special rate.
• Management companies and individual rental owners typically offer customers an option to obtain trip insurance. Trip insurance, which usually will cost anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed days as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance can be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for additional information.
• Look for your local visitors guide upon checking in. If your rental doesn't have one, you can find them at local shops and visitor centers. In addition to great local articles, travel guide magazines have money saving offers on local shops and restaurants.

How to choose the perfect vacation home in Oak Island:

• Select a group leader, choose your vacation dates, and choose a budget.
• Decide how many bedrooms and the bed configuration your group needs. Coastal North Carolina Retreat: Half Mile to Beach has 1 bedrooms and 1 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our rentals search.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed types is regularly available on booking pages. If they are not listed, email or call the property manager before you book the vacation home. Note that most properties list the maximum guest capacity, which often includes pull-out couches. You'll need to establish what is right for your vacation group.
• Some properties allow pets, and others don't. Acceptable types of dog or cat, weight and breeds may be restricted, and additional charges may apply. Ask the owner about your furry family members before booking.
• Does your group require specific amenities? Most rental search websites include search filters with amenity lists.
• Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for those with limited mobility. .

Have a fantastic stay:

• Be sure you get the host's contact number and arrival/departure procedures for your .
• Hosts are great sources of help! Feel free to ask any questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Keep your rental home locked while you're away! Don't let thieves ruin your trip.
• During check-in, make note of any issues with the rental property and immediately contact the host. Keep records of all correspondence in case a dispute arises.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like disagreeable visitors bothering your quiet neighborhood. Use the golden rule for best judgement. If they like you, locals might even recommend great restaurants and places you would've not otherwise known!
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Locals can usually help. Who better to ask where to get the best breakfast in town, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for crabbing?
• When it's time to leave, take a walk-through to confirm you haven't forget any personal items. Re-check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden belongings. Clean the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Did your group have a terrific vacation? Most vacation rental websites make it easy for customers to provide reviews. If your rental property and/or property manager was great, they will likely appreciate your kind words. If anything was amiss and they failed to address it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make it a point as part of your comments.
