Conveniently located in walking distance of fashionable local dining options, an arcade, beach stores, ice cream stores and nightlife, not to mention the sand and surf, this trendy condo complex also features charming community amenities. Take a dip in the pool to cool off, grille up some burgers and picnic at the supplied tables, and heave a sign of relief as you load your suitcases on the elevator instead of lugging it up the steps.

When you're ready to take a break from the everyday, Gone Beachin' is ready to welcome you!

Booking the best vacation home experience:

Finding your perfect vacation home:

• The sooner you can book a vacation home, the better your selection will be. The most desirable properties are booked early. Reserving your vacation rental six to twelve months before your vacation dates is recommended. Holiday gatherings are excellent times to plan and book your rental home.
• To get the best value, consider shifting your family's Cape Fear area trip dates to the Spring or Fall seasons. May, September, and October offer excellent temperatures, fewer crowds, and reduced traffic. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, or to book an oceanfront vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during June, July, and August. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Cape Fear area vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation near the ocean? Thanksgiving and Christmas are great times to gather with friends and family at the beach.
• Some property management companies offer discounts or promotional rates for veterans and active duty military. Ask your property manager if discounts are available for your family.
• Property managers usually offer their guests an option to buy vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which normally will cost anywhere between 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed days as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance might be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for additional information.
• Look for your local Cape Fear area area magazine when you arrive at the rental property. If your rental doesn't have one, you can find them at local shops and visitor centers. In addition to great local stories, visitors guides contain coupons for nearby restaurants, attractions, and tours.

How to pick the best rental home in Oak Island:

• Start by choosing your a vacation week and a budget.
• Note the number bedrooms and what type of bedroom configuration your group requires. Gone Beachin' : Dog-friendly Condo Close to Beach has 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms.
• Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts is normally accessible on booking websites. Otherwise, email or call the host before reserving the property. Note that most property listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which oftentimes includes pull-out couches. You will need to establish what bed configuration is right for your vacation family.
• Traveling with pets? Many vacation homes allow animals, but guidelines and restrictions apply. Type of pet, size and breeds may be limited. Ask your host before booking, and study your rental agreement! Additional fees or charges may be applied to your agreement.
• If there's a specific Cape Fear area beach you are enamored with, keep an eye out for properties that are either nearby, or those that cater to your desires.
• Appropriate accessibility can make or break a vacation for guests that require the use of a wheelchair. Remember to confirm all required amenities are available before reserving a rental

Some things to know before you go:

• Take a copy of the host's phone number and arrival/departure procedures for your rental. Store the host's information in your smartphone and wallet.
• Hosts are there to help! Don't be shy to ask any questions during your stay.
• Ensure you protect the rental owner (and your stuff!) by locking the rental while you are away, just like you would back home.
• Document any issues with the rental upon arrival, and immediately e-mail them to the owner. We specifically recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain built-in time stamps that are valuable if a dispute arises.
• Respect your neighbors. Often, surrounding homes are occupied by local residents. Respecting noise limits and parking regulations reduces conflict and allows everyone to enjoy their day.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Locals can often help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to grab the best tacos, have a great night out, or the best spots for fine dining?
• On check-out day, complete a final walk-through to make sure you haven't leave anything behind. Re-check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden belongings. Clean the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Remember to leave a review! Hosts rely on excellent reviews to inspire future reservations. They'll be grateful for your review. Alternatively, if something went wrong, other vacationing families will appreciate that you share your experience find their best rental home. Be fair with your review. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the owner could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded reasonably to remedy it.
