Strategies to get the best rental home experience:

How to get the best rental home value:

• Summer is the most expensive season in Oak Island. Book your Cape Fear area rental in Fall or Spring months to get the benefit of warm weather while saving money and avoiding crowds. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, or to book an oceanfront rental that would otherwise be unavailable during the Summer.
• In the Cape Fear area area, The earlier you can reserve a home, the better your selection will be. The most desirable vacation rentals are booked very early. Booking your rental 6-12 months before your travel dates is recommended. Winter holidays are excellent times to search for and book your vacation rental.
• Some owners offer rate reductions for veterans. Ask your host or property manager if discounts are available for your family.
• Property managers frequently offer renters an option to buy vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which normally will cost you between 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for days missed as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for details.
• Find a copy of your local Cape Fear area visitors guide magazine when you arrive at the rental property. 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 guide magazines have discounts for local accommodations, tours and attractions.

Planning, picking, and booking a perfectrental:

• Start by having your family commit to a vacation week and a max budget.
• Note the number beds and what type of bedroom configuration your family needs. Sound Bite: Ocean View Home with Dock on Eastern Channel! has 4 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our Cape Fear area rental home search.
• Precise details about bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is regularly available online. If they are not listed, email the property owner before you book your rental. Remember that most listings specify the max. guest capacity, which typically includes pull-out couches and bunk beds.
• If there's a specific Cape Fear area beach you long to visit, search for rentals that are either close by, or those that cater to your requirements.
• Suitable accessibility can make or break a vacation for persons with a disability. Remember to confirm all required amenities are included before booking
• Some properties allow pets, and others do not. Allowable types of dog or cat, weight and breeds may be restricted, and additional fees may apply. Ask the host about allowable breeds and types before booking.

During your stay:

• Be sure you get the owner's phone number and check in/check out procedures for your rental. We recommend storing the manager's contact information in your smartphone.
• Document any damages to the rental during check in, and immediately send them to the property manager. We specifically recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain time stamps that can be very helpful if a dispute is filed.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a fireplace, stereo or washer/dryer. Contact your owner. They are there to help! A brief telephone call prevents many problems.
• Respecting quiet hours and parking regulations can make a stay significantly more pleasurable. Be a good neighbor. You'll enhance your chance to make some new local friends, and resident neighbors are often a fantastic source for finding the best local beaches and hangouts.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Locals can often help. Who better to ask where to find the fresh catch of the day, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fishing?
• Ensure you protect the rental owner (and your things!) by keeping the rental locked up while you are out, just like you would back home.
• Just before checking out, complete a walk-through to confirm you have not forget anything. Check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden items. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Go through the property one final time and scan for damage. We advise walking through with the host whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the host is not available, ensure that you take photos of the property to record its condition at check-out.
• Did you have a wonderful stay? Most rental home management companies make it easy for travelers to provide reviews. If your property and/or property management company was terrific, they will likely appreciate your kind words. If anything was imperfect and they failed to fix it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make a note as part of your comments.
