Tricks and tips to get the best Cape Fear area rental home experience:

Sticking to a rental budget:

• Summertime is high season in Oak Island. Reserving a rental home in Spring or Fall is one of our best tips for saving money on your rental home. Rates are lower, and you'll find a larger selection of desirable homes. Many vacationers use this strategy to reserve larger homes, or to book an oceanfront vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during the high season.
• The earlier your group can book a rental home, the easier your search will be. The most desirable vacation rentals are booked very early. Booking your rental six to twelve months before your vacation is recommended. Winter holidays are excellent times to plan and book your rental home.
• Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property manager or host whether your family qualifies for a price reduction or discount.
• 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 their vacation costs for any missed vacation time as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for additional information.
• Often, rental management companies and vacation rental houses supply Cape Fear area area visitors guides that include special deals, either offered independently by local companies, or through a relationship between the property management company and the business itself. You can also find Cape Fear area visitors guide and coupon books at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers.

Make a plan and pick a perfectrental home:

• Choose vacation week and spending budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and the bed configuration you need. Wonderful Ocean Views from Spacious Beach Home only 2 Blocks from the Beach has 5 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms.
• Precise details about bedrooms and bed types is often available on booking websites. If you don't see them listed, email the property manager before booking the property. Note that most properties list maximum guest capacity, which oftentimes includes sofa beds and bunks. You will need to establish what is best for your group.
• Are you looking for special amenities? Most websites include amenity lists and search filters.
• Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for persons with a disability. Confirm all necessary amenities are available before reserving a rental.
• If your group is bringing pets, you will need a property that allows animals. Ask for information on breed, weight, and type restrictions. Note that some property managers charge additional pet fees.

Some things to know before you go:

• Get the property manager's phone number and arrival/departure procedures for your rental property.
• To make sure that damages are not linked to your family's visit, note any problem areas when you arrive. Make contact with the host immediately to relay any damages. If there is a dispute, having the recorded issues and contact attempts will be useful.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a garage door opener, elevator or appliance. Contact your owner. They are there to help! A brief text message prevents quite a few problems.
• Respect your neighbors. Often, adjacent homes are filled by local residents. Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking regulations can make a stay significantly more pleasurable.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Local residents can frequently help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to take kids for a treat, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for bird watching?
• Keep the property locked while you are out! Don't let burglars spoil your vacation.
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before you drive away, walk through the rental to confirm you've collected all belongings. Re-check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden items. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Document the condition of the property at check-out. We recommend taking a video during your final walk-through.
• Did your family have a wonderful time? Many rental management companies make it easy for guests to provide reviews. If your property and/or host was fantastic, they would love to hear about it. If anything was inoperable and they failed to address it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make a note as part of your feedback.
