Strategies to get the best rental home experience:

Get the best rental home value:

• To find the best value, change your family's Carolina Beach vacation dates to the Spring or Fall months. May, September, and October offer warmer temperatures, , and greatly reduced traffic. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Carolina Beach vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation near the ocean? Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with family and friends at the beach.
• Book your vacation rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules usually become available twelve months in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many families reserve their Summer rental homes during holiday gatherings. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property owner if your group qualifies for a reduced rate.
• Property management companies usually offer their guests an option to buy trip insurance. Trip insurance, which usually costs between 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed days as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance might be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for specifics.
• Many management companies supply Carolina Beach area visitor guide magazines which often include coupons, either offered independently by local businesses, or by way of a partnership between the property management company and the business itself. You can also find Carolina Beach visitors guide magazine and coupon books at local shops and grocery stores.

Choosing the best rental home in Oak Island:

• Start by choosing your trip dates and a maximum budget.
• Determine how many beds and what type of bedroom configuration your group needs. 4BR\/2BA Home - Only a Short Walk to the Beach, Sleeps12 has 5 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our vacation rental search.
• Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts is normally available on booking websites. If not, contact the property management company before you book the home. Remember that most property listings specify maximum guest capacity, which usually includes pull out couches in living rooms. You will need to work out what bed configuration is suitable for your vacation.
• Are you visiting for a specific attraction? If so, use a map search to find nearby properties.
• Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for the less-mobile. Confirm all necessary amenities are available and included before booking
• If your group is traveling with pets, you'll need to find a property that allows animals. Make sure to ask for details on breed, weight, and type restrictions. Often, property managers charge additional pet fees.

More considerations for your visit:

• Get the host's phone number and entry/exit procedures for your rental home. We recommend storing the host's information in your smartphone and wallet.
• During check-in, make note of any damages to the property and immediately alert the owner. Keep records of all coorespondence.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a fireplace, intercom or WIFI setup. Contact your property manager. They are there to help! A brief text message prevents lots of concerns.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like obnoxious visitors bothering your peace. Employ the golden rule for common sense. Happy residents may even recommend great local food and places you would have never otherwise known about!
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Locals can frequently help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to book the best tours, have a great night out, or the best spots for bird watching?
• Lock your rental while you are out and about. Protect your property!
• Re-check every room of the rental property to confirm that you've packed all belongings at departure. Remember to check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden belongings. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Inspect the rental one final time and scan for any damage. We advise walking through with the property manager whenever possible. If the manager isn't available, take photos of the rental to record its condition.
• Did you have a wonderful time? Many rental home management companies make it easy for vacationers to provide feedback. If your property and/or property manager was fantastic, they would love to hear about it. If anything was amiss and they failed to correct it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make a note as part of your review.
