Finding the best Oak Island rental experience:

Sticking to your spending plan:

• Reserve your rental as early as possible. Rental schedules usually become available 12 months in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many groups reserve their Summer rental homes during Thanksgiving and Christmas get-togethers. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Summer is the most expensive season in the Cape Fear area area. Booking in Fall or Spring months is our best tip for saving money on your vacation home. Rates are lower, and you'll find a better selection of acceptable properties. Many vacationers use this strategy to find larger homes within budget, or to reserve a beach front vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during the Summer months.
• Property management companies sometimes offer discounts or promotional rates for veterans and active duty military. Remember to ask your property manager if special offers are available for your group before you book.
• Booking websites often offer customers an option to add trip insurance. Trip insurance, which usually will cost between 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed vacation time as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance might be a a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for specifics.
• Find a copy of your local Cape Fear area area magazine when you check-in. If your rental property doesn't have one, you can find them at local shops and fuel stations. In addition to great local stories, visitors guides have coupons for local tours and attractions.

Finding the perfect rental home in the Cape Fear area area:

• Begin by selecting your trip dates and a max budget.
• Determine how many beds and the configuration your group needs. Quaint OCEANFRONT Getaway*WEST BEACH\/STEPS FROM POINT*Sleeps 8*GREAT VIEWS*Clean has 5 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our rentals search.
• Specific information about bedrooms and bed counts & types is normally accessible on booking websites. If not, email or call the property management company before reserving the rental. Remember that most property listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which typically includes sofa beds and bunks.
• If your group is vacationing with pets, you must reserve a rental that allows animals. Make sure to ask for information on breed, size, and type restrictions. Often, property managers charge pet deposits and fees.
• Are you visiting for a specific event? If so, use a map search to locate nearby rentals.
• Appropriate accessibility can make or break a vacation for those with limited mobility. Confirm all necessary amenities are available and included before reserving a rental.

More tips for your visit:

• Add the owner's contact information to your smartphone. Understand and take a copy of check in/check out procedures.
• Property managers are there to help! Don't be shy to ask any questions during your stay.
• Ensure you protect the owner (and your things!) by locking and securing the home when you are out, just like you would at home.
• During arrival, make note of any damages to the rental property and immediately alert the owner. Keep records of all coorespondence.
• Don't forget to respect your neighbors. Often times, nearby homes are occupied by local residents. Respecting noise limits and parking policies reduces conflict and allows everyone to enjoy their day.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Residents can usually help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to spend a rainy day, have a great night out, or the best spots for fine dining?
• Double-check the vacation property to confirm that you've packed all of your belongings on check-out day. Remember to check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden treasure. Clean the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Please make sure to walk through the rental one final time and scan for any damage. We recommend walking through with the property manager whenever possible. If the property manager isn't available, remember to take video of the property to record its condition.
• Did your group have a fantastic vacation? Many vacation rental websites make it easy for vacationers to provide reviews. If your rental and/or host was terrific, they would love to hear about it. If anything was defective and they failed to fix it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make it a point as part of your feedback.
