Rental home booking tips:

Getting the most from your rental budget:

• Book your vacation rental as early as possible. Rental schedules generally open a year in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many families reserve their Summer rentals during Winter holiday get-togethers. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Summertime is the most expensive season in Oak Island. Book your Cape Fear area vacation home in the Fall or Spring shoulder seasons to get the benefit of warm weather while saving money and avoiding crowds. 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 your favorite beach.
• 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 special promotion or discount.
• Management companies and individual rental owners usually offer renters an option to obtain trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which commonly will cost anywhere between 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed vacation time as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance might be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for specifics.
• Often, property management companies supply Cape Fear area area visitor guides that include special offers, either offered directly by local companies, or by way of a relationship with the management company and the business itself. You can also find Cape Fear area visitors guide magazine and coupon books at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers.

Narrow your Search:

• Select vacation dates and maximum budget.
• Note the number bedrooms and what type of bedroom configuration your family requires. Best Location on the Island has 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts & types is almost always available on booking websites. If you don't see them listed, reach out to the property manager before you reserve your home. Remember that most listings specify maximum guest capacity, which oftentimes includes pull-out couches. You will need to determine what bed configuration is suitable for your family.
• If your group is bringing pets, you'll need to book a pet-friendly vacation rental. Get specifics on breed, size, and type restrictions. Be aware that some property managers require additional pet deposits and fees.
• If there's a particular Cape Fear area attraction you are crazy about, search for homes that are either nearby, or those that cater to your needs.
• Appropriate accessibility can make or break a vacation for guests with disabilities. Confirm all necessary amenities are available before booking

More considerations:

• Review arrival and departure procedures before traveling. Add a note with the instructions to your phone, and take a printed backup.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a hot tub, intercom or kitchen appliance. Contact your owner. They are there to help! A brief call can prevent a lot of difficulties.
• Ensure you protect the rental owner (and your stuff!) by locking the rental when you are out, just like you would back home.
• To make sure that no damages are attributed to your visit, record any problem areas during arrival. Call the host immediately to relay any issues. If there is a dispute about legal responsibility later, having the recorded issues and contact attempts will be helpful.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like obnoxious visitors bothering your home life. Employ the golden rule for common sense. If they like you, locals might even recommend great restaurants and scenic spots you would have not otherwise known about!
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Neighbors can frequently help. Who better to ask where to get the best breakfast in town, have a great night out, or the best spots for bird watching?
• Double-check every room of the vacation property to make sure that you've packed all belongings at check-out. Remember to check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden belongings. Clean out the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Please make sure to walk through the property a final time and keep an eye out for damages to contents or the property itself. We advise inspecting the property with the property manager whenever possible. If the property manager isn't available, remember to take video of the property to record its condition at check-out.
• Remember to leave feedback! Property managers rely on great feedback to propel future bookings. They'll be thankful for your review. Alternatively, if something wasn't as described, other families will appreciate that you share your review find their best rental home. Remember to be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the owner had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded expeditiously to solve it.
