Tricks and tips for getting the perfect Oak Island rental experience:

Money saving strategies:

• Book your vacation rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules often become available 12 months in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many families reserve their Summer rental homes during Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years Eve get-togethers. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• June, July, and August are the most expensive months in the Cape Fear area area. Book your rental in Fall or Spring months to enjoy warm weather while saving money and avoiding crowded roads, restaurants, and activities.
• Hosts and Property managers sometimes offer discounts or promotional rates for active duty military and veterans. Make sure to check with your property manager to see if rate reductions are available for your family.
• Booking websites typically offer their guests an option to add trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which normally will cost between 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed vacation time as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance can be a a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for details.
• Often, rental management companies and vacation rental houses supply Cape Fear area area visitor guides that include special offers, either offered directly by local companies, or by way of a relationship between the rental management company and the business itself. You can also find visitors guide and coupon books at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers.

Use filters to narrow your search:

• Choose a designated group leader, choose your dates, and choose a budget.
• Decide how many bedrooms and the configuration your family requires. Oak Island Family Vacation Home < 1 Mi to Beach! has 4 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Precise information about bedrooms and bed counts is generally available on booking websites. If they are not listed, call the property management company before you book the vacation home. Remember that most property listings specify the max. guest capacity, which usually includes sofa beds. You'll need to work out what is right for your vacation.
• If your group is traveling with pets, you must reserve a property that allows animals. Request details on breed, weight, and type restrictions. Note that some property managers charge pet deposits and fees.
• If there's a particular Cape Fear area destination you long to visit, look for properties that are either close by, or those that cater especially to your requirements.
• Proper accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for guests with disabilities. Make certain to ask about wheel chair entry, pool lifts and specialized equipment needs.

Tips for a fantastic stay:

• Store the owner's information in your smartphone.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a fireplace, A/V setup or washer/dryer. Contact your host. They are there to help! A brief call can prevent a lot of concerns.
• Keep the property locked while you're away! Don't let crooks spoil your holiday.
• To make certain damages are not linked to your stay, inspect the rental for any problem areas upon your arrival. Call the property manager right away to document any issues. If there is a dispute, having a record of problems and contact attempts will be useful.
• Be respectful of your neighbors. Often times, surrounding homes are occupied by permanent residents. Respecting noise limits and parking regulations reduces conflict and allows everyone to enjoy their day.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Local residents can frequently help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to charter a fishing boat, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for shopping?
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before departing, walk through the rental to reconfirm you've collected all of your things. Make sure to check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden items. Clean the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Walk through the property a final time and scan for damages to contents or the property itself. We suggest inspecting the property with the property manager whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the manager is not available, remember to take photos of the rental to record its condition at check-out.
• Did your group have a wonderful vacation? Most rental management companies make it easy for customers to provide feedback. If your rental property and/or property manager was terrific, they will likely appreciate your kind words. If anything was wrong and they failed to correct it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make a note as part of your feedback.
