Our top Cape Fear area rental property booking tips:

Getting the best rental value:

• The earlier you can reserve a vacation rental, the better your selection will be. The most desirable rental properties are reserved early. Booking your rental six to twelve months before your vacation dates is recommended. Winter holidays are excellent times to search for and reserve your rental home.
• Summer is the most expensive season along the coast of NC. Booking a rental in the Fall or Spring is our best tip for saving money on your rental home. Rental rates are lower, and you'll find a larger selection of acceptable homes. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Cape Fear area vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation on the coast? Thanksgiving and Christmas are great times to gather with loved ones at the beach.
• Some property managers offer rate reductions for veterans and active duty military. Remember to ask your host or property manager if discounts are available for your group before you book.
• Property management companies typically offer customers an option to purchase vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which will generally cost anywhere between 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed vacation time as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance might be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for specifics.
• Find a copy of your local Cape Fear area area magazine when you check-in. If your rental home doesn't have one, you can find them at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers. In addition to great information, visitor guide magazines have discounts for local accommodations, restaurants and tours.

Filter your rental search:

• Select a group lead, select your dates, and select a max budget.
• Decide how many bedrooms and what type of bedroom configuration you need. OIB Lovin’ Life - Steps From The Beach has 5 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our Cape Fear area rentals search.
• Precise information regarding bedrooms and bed counts & types is generally accessible on booking websites. If not, reach out to the host before booking the vacation property. Note that most properties list the max. guest capacity, which typically includes sofa beds in living rooms. You will need to determine what configuration is optimal for your vacation group.
• If your group is traveling with pets, you'll need to book a pet-friendly property. Get specifics on breed, weight, and type restrictions. Note that some property managers charge additional pet fees.
• Does your family require particular amenities? Most rental search websites include search filters for amenities. Filtering by amenity will allow you to quickly find your ideal rental.
• Appropriate accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for guests that require the use of a wheelchair. Make certain to ask about specialized equipment and wheel chair accessibility.

Additional considerations:

• Review check in & check out procedures before leaving home. Add a note with the directions to your smartphone, and take a printed copy.
• Property managers are available to help! Don't be shy to ask any questions during your stay.
• Keep your rental home locked while you are away! Don't let crooks spoil your vacation.
• Upon arrival, document any issues with the rental property and immediately alert the owner. Record all coorespondence.
• Respect the neighborhood. Often, nearby homes are occupied by permanent residents. Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking regulations is the right thing to do.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Residents can usually help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to book the best tours, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for bird watching?
• Re-check the vacation property to confirm that you've packed all of your belongings at check-out. Check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden treasure. Clean the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Did you have a wonderful vacation? Most rental websites make it easy for customers to provide comments. If your rental and/or property management company was terrific, they always love to hear your praise. If anything was imperfect and they failed to correct it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make it a point as part of your review.
