Cape Fear area rental booking tips:

When to visit Oak Island & When to reserve a Oak Island rental home:

• Summer months are the most expensive season in Oak Island. Booking your Cape Fear area vacation home in the Fall or Spring is a good way to save on your rental home. Rental rates are lower, and you'll find a larger selection of desirable properties. Many vacationers use this strategy to find larger homes within budget, or to reserve an oceanfront rental that would otherwise be unavailable during the Summer.
• In the Cape Fear area area, The earlier you can reserve a home, the better your selection will be. The best properties are booked very early. Booking your rental home six to twelve months before your vacation dates is recommended. Holiday gatherings are excellent times to plan and book your rental home.
• Some hosts offer special rates for veterans and active duty military. Remember to ask your host or property manager if special discounts are available for your group.
• Property managers often offer their guests an option to purchase trip insurance. Trip insurance, which normally costs 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed vacation time as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance can be a a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for program terms and fees.
• Often, management companies supply Cape Fear area area visitors guides which include coupons, either offered directly by local companies, or through a relationship with the management company and the business itself. You can also find visitors guide and coupon books at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers.

• Ensure you protect the rental owner (and your things!) by locking the rental when you are out, just like you would back home.
• On check-out day, complete a final walk-through to confirm you did not forget any personal items. Re-check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden belongings. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Inspect the rental one 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 you can. If the host isn't available, take photos and video of the rental to record its condition.
• Did you have a fantastic stay? Many rental websites make it easy for clients to provide comments. If your property and/or property manager was great, they will likely appreciate your kind words.
