How to find the best Oak Island rental experience:

When to book & When to go:

• Book your vacation home as early as possible. Rental schedules generally become available twelve months in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many families book their Summer vacation rentals during Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years Eve get-togethers. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• To find the best value, try changing your vacation dates to the Spring or Fall seasons. May, September, and October offer great temperatures, less crowded beaches, and reduced traffic. Many vacationers use this strategy to find larger homes within budget, or to reserve an oceanfront rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during the Summer months.
• Some property management companies offer discounts or promotional rates for veterans. Ask your host or property manager if special offers are available for your group.
• Management companies and individual rental owners often offer customers an option to buy trip insurance. Trip insurance, which costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed trip time as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance might be a a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for specifics.
• Often, management companies supply Cape Fear area area visitors guide magazines which often include special deals, either offered independently by local companies, or through a relationship between the rental management company and the business itself. You can also find Cape Fear area area magazine and coupon books at local shops and grocery stores.

Choosing the best rental:

• First, have your group commit to vacation dates and a max budget.
• Determine how many beds and the bed configuration you need. Spacious & Beautiful 4BR\/2BA Oceanfront Home-Sleeps 12 has 5 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Specific information about bedrooms and bed counts & types is commonly available on booking pages. Otherwise, call the property management company before booking your home. Note that most listings specify maximum guest capacity, which frequently includes sofa beds.
• If your family is traveling with pets, you'll need to search for a rental that allows animals. Ask for details on breed, weight, and type requirements. Often, property owners charge additional pet fees.
• Does your family require specific amenities? Most rental search websites include search filters for amenities.
• Proper accessibility can make or break a vacation for persons with disabilities. Confirm all necessary amenities are available before booking

Advice for a great stay:

• Store the owner's contact information in your smartphone.
• Property managers are great sources of help! Don't be shy to ask questions during your stay.
• Keep the property locked while you're out! Don't let thieves ruin your trip.
• Record any damages to the property upon arrival, and immediately send them to the owner. We specifically recommend e-mails and text messages, as they usually contain time stamps that are useful if a dispute arises.
• Be a good neighbor. Frequently, adjacent homes are occupied by permanent residents. Respecting quiet hours and parking policies reduces conflict and allows everyone to enjoy their day.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Local residents can often point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to get the best seafood, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for BBQ?
• Don't leave anything behind! Before you drive away, walk through the rental to reconfirm you've collected all belongings. Check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden items. Clean out the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Please make sure to walk through the rental a final time and keep an eye out for any damage. We recommend walking through with the property manager whenever you can. If the manager is not available, remember to take video and pictures of the rental to record its condition at check-out.
• After your trip, leave a review! Hosts rely on great ratings to compel more reservations. They'll be grateful for your review. Alternatively, if something wasn't as described, other vacationers will be thankful you shared your experience and help them have the best future vacation. Be fair with your review. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the owner had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded quickly to fix it.
