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

How to get the best value:

• Reserve your vacation home as early as possible. Rental schedules generally become available twelve months in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many families reserve their Summer rental homes during Winter holiday get-togethers. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• June, July, and August are high season in the Cape Fear area area. Booking your Cape Fear area vacation home in Fall or Spring is an excellent way to save on your vacation rental. Rates are lower, and you'll find a better selection of suitable homes. Many vacationers use this strategy to reserve larger homes, or to book a beach front rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during the Summer months. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Cape Fear area vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday on the coast? Christmas, Thanksgiving, and New Years Eve are great times to gather with friends and family at the beach.
• Some hosts offer promotional rates for active duty military and veterans. Ask your property manager if special discounts are available for your group.
• Property management companies usually offer their guests an option to purchase trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which normally costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed trip time as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for program terms and fees.
• Find a copy of your local visitors guide when you arrive at the rental property. If your rental property doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local shops and visitor centers. In addition to great information, travel guides have money saving offers on local accommodations and attractions.

Finding the perfect rental home:

• Start by choosing trip dates and a budget.
• Note the number beds and what type of bedroom configuration your family requires. Rustic 1960's Oceanfront Cottage With Modern Updates has 4 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed types is commonly available online. Otherwise, email or call the property manager before you reserve the vacation home. Remember that most property listings specify the max. guest capacity, which frequently includes pull-out couches.
• Some rentals allow pets, but others do not. Acceptable types of family pet, weight and breeds may be restricted, and additional fees may apply. Ask the host about allowable breeds and types before booking.
• Are you visiting for a single event or attraction? Use a map search to locate nearby properties.
• Proper accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for those with limited mobility. Remember to confirm all required amenities are available before booking

Have a wonderful stay:

• Take a copy of the host's contact number and check in/check out procedures for your rental.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a fireplace, elevator or washer/dryer. Contact your host. They are there to help! A brief call can prevent quite a few difficulties.
• Protect the rental owner (and your stuff!) by locking the rental when you are out, just like you would at home.
• To make certain that damages aren't linked to your visit, record any problem areas when you arrive. Speak to the host immediately to document your findings. If there is a dispute, having the recorded problems and contact attempts will be valuable.
• Respecting quiet hours and parking policies can make a stay significantly more pleasurable. You'll enhance your chance to make some new local friends, and resident neighbors are usually an incredible source for finding the best local spots.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Residents can often help. Who better to ask where to order delicious takeout, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for BBQ?
• Double-check the property to make sure that you've packed everything at check-out. Remember to check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden items. Clean out the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Document the condition of the property at check-out. We recommend taking a video during your final walk-through.
• Remember to leave feedback! Hosts rely on good feedback to propel new reservations. They'll be much obliged for your feedback. Alternatively, if something went awry, other vacationers will appreciate that you share your review and help them have the best future vacation. Remember to be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the owner could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded expeditiously to remedy it.
