Tips and Tricks to get the optimal rental experience:

Getting the best rental home value:

• Summer months are high season in the Carolina Beach area. Book your vacation home in Spring or Fall to enjoy warm weather while saving money and avoiding crowds. Many vacationers use this method to find larger homes within budget, or to book an oceanfront rental that would otherwise be unavailable during the high season. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Carolina Beach vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday near the ocean? Thanksgiving and Christmas are great times to gather with friends and family at your favorite beach.
• The sooner you can book a vacation home, the easier your search will be. The best rental properties are booked early. Reserving your vacation property up to 12 months before your vacation is recommended. Christmas, Thanksgiving and New Years Eve are excellent times to plan and book your vacation home.
• Property managers sometimes offer rate reductions for veterans and active duty military. Check with your property manager to see if special offers are available for your group.
• Property managers often offer guests an option to add vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which commonly will cost anywhere between 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any days missed as a result of medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional evacuation costs or charges, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance might be a a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for more information.
• Many management companies and vacation rental houses supply Carolina Beach area travel guides which often include special offers, either offered independently by local businesses, or through a relationship between the management company and the business itself. You can also find Carolina Beach visitors guide and coupon books at local gas stations and shopping centers.

How to choose the perfect rental home in Oak Island:

• Start by choosing your trip dates and a max budget.
• Note the number beds and the bed configuration your family requires. 5BR\/3BA Oceanfront Home - POOL, Private Beach Access, Sleeps 15 has 6 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms.
• Precise information regarding bedrooms and bed counts is usually accessible online. Otherwise, call the host before you book the home. Remember that most properties list the max. guest capacity, which often includes sofa beds. You'll need to work out what is suitable for your vacation family.
• If there's an individual Carolina Beach attraction you are enamored with, keep an eye out for properties that are either near by, or those that cater to your needs.
• Suitable accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for guests with disabilities. Make certain to inquire about specialized equipment and wheel chair accessibility.
• Some rental properties allow pets, and some do not. Acceptable types of family pet, weight and breeds may be restricted, and added costs may apply. Ask your host about pet restrictions before booking.

Some things to know before you go:

• Review check in & check out procedures before traveling. Add a note with the directions to your smartphone, and take a printed backup.
• Upon arrival, make note of any issues with the property and immediately contact the owner. Record all correspondence in case a dispute arises.
• Property managers are there to help! Feel free to ask any questions during your stay.
• Don't forget to respect your neighbors. Often times, surrounding homes are occupied by permanent residents. Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking policies reduces conflict and allows everyone to enjoy their day.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Residents can frequently help. Who better to ask where to find the best bike paths, have a great night out, or the best spots for shopping?
• Ensure you protect the owner (and your things!) by locking the property when you are out, just like you would back home.
• When it's time to leave, complete a final walk-through to confirm you have not forget any personal items. Remember to check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden items. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Did your family have a fantastic vacation? Many rental websites make it easy for clients to provide feedback. If your rental property and/or host was fantastic, they will likely appreciate your kind words. If anything was amiss and they failed to address it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make a note as part of your comments.
