Oak Island
Oak Island is the ideal blend of convenient amenities and eateries, without being overrun with upsized T-shirt huts and overcrowded beaches. Selected as one of USA Today’s 51 Great American Beaches, Oak Island is one of the best kept secrets on the east coast! Only mins. from the historic town of Southport, Oak Island offers a blend of amenities and miles of open, unpopulated beach.

This family-aligned community offers a variety of activities for all interests, including:
• Great water-related activities, including fishing, swimming, kayaking on the sound side and boating.
• Several close by golf courses, or for the avid golfer, Myrtle Beach is a 45-min. drive.
• Caswell Beach is a loggerhead sea turtle sanctuary.
• Spend a day in Southport, a historic coastal community with modest town appeal that offers eateries, stores and deep-sea fishing.
• Take a ferry ride to either Fort Fisher Aquarium or to Bald Head Island.
• Wilmington (35 miles) has waterfront stores, the NC Aquarium and the North Carolina Battleship.

How to find the best Oak Island vacation property experience:

Cost saving strategies:

• Summer is high season in the Cape Fear area area. To find the best rental within your budget, we recommend booking in Fall or Spring months. You'll enjoy lower rates, better selection, gorgeous weather and the absence of large crowds at popular Cape Fear area attractions and restaurants.
• The sooner you can book a rental home, the easier your search will be. The most desirable vacation rentals are reserved early. Booking your rental home six - twelve months before your vacation dates is recommended. Christmas, Thanksgiving and New Years Eve are excellent times to plan and reserve your rental property.
• Property management companies sometimes offer discounts for veterans. Remember to ask your host or property manager if special offers are available for your group.
• Booking websites usually offer customers an option to buy vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which generally will cost 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any days missed as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance can be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for specifics.
• Many property management companies supply Cape Fear area area visitors guide magazines which will include special offers, either offered directly by local companies, or through a relationship with the property management company and the business itself. You can also find visitors guide and coupon books at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers.

Narrow your Search:

• Choose dates and maximum budget.
• Decide how many beds and the configuration your group needs. Sea la Vie: Oceanfront Peace & Relaxation (Fully Renovated 2021) has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our Cape Fear area rental home search.
• Specific information regarding bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is usually accessible on booking pages. Otherwise, call the property owner before booking the property. Note that most properties list maximum guest capacity, which often includes sofa beds in living rooms.
• Visiting for a specific event? If so, use a map search to find nearby rentals.
• Suitable accessibility can make or break a vacation for the less-mobile. Confirm all required amenities are available and included before reserving a rental.
• Remember to include your furry companions! Although a number of vacation homes allow pets or animals, guidelines and costs vary per property. Allowable pet type, breed, and size are often limited. Remember to ask your host before booking, and study your agreement! Pet fees or charges may be applied to your contract.

Tips for your stay:

• Review arrival and departure procedures before traveling. Save the instructions to your phone, and take a printed backup.
• Record any issues with the rental at check in, and immediately contact the property manager. We especially recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain built-in time stamps that can be helpful if a dispute arises.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a fireplace, stereo or kitchen appliance. Contact your host. They are there to help! A brief telephone call prevents quite a few problems.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like loud vacationers disrupting your peaceful home life. Use the golden rule for common sense. Happy residents may even recommend great local food and places you would have not otherwise known!
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Locals can frequently help. Who better to ask where to go for the best drinks, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fine dining?
• Ensure you protect the rental owner (and your things!) by locking the property while you are away, just like you would back home.
• Re-check the vacation property to confirm that you've packed all personal items on check-out day. Check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden treasure. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Inspect the property a final time and scan for any damage. We advise inspecting the property with the host whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the manager isn't available, take video of the property to record its condition.
• Did your group have a fantastic time? Most rental home management companies make it easy for vacationers to provide reviews. If your property and/or property manager was wonderful, they would love to hear about it. If anything was amiss and they failed to correct it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make it a point as part of your review.
