Strategies to get the optimal vacation home experience:

When to visit & When to book:

• The earlier you can reserve a home, the easier your search will be. The most desirable vacation homes are booked early. Booking your vacation rental 6-12 months before your vacation is recommended. Holiday gatherings are excellent times to plan and book your rental property.
• Summer months are the most expensive season in Oak Island. To find the best value, consider shifting your vacation dates to the Spring or Fall months. May, September, and October offer great weather, fewer crowds, and greatly reduced traffic.
• Some property managers offer discounts or promotional rates for active duty military and veterans. Make sure to check with your property manager to see if discounts are available for your family.
• Property management companies usually offer guests an option to obtain trip insurance. Trip insurance, which costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed days as a result of medical-related issues or weather, as well as ensuing additional evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel stay or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for more information.
• Look for your local Carolina Beach visitors guide magazine upon arrival. If your rental doesn't have one, you can find them at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers. In addition to great local information, visitors guides have money saving offers on nearby accommodations and attractions.

How to choose the best rental home in the Carolina Beach area:

• Begin by selecting trip dates and a budget.
• Decide how many bedrooms and the configuration your family needs. Boat, Fish & Bike: Oak Island Home w\/ Large Yard has 2 bedrooms and 1 bathrooms.
• Specific information regarding bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is often accessible on booking pages. Otherwise, call the property owner before reserving the home. Remember that most property listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which often includes sofa beds in living rooms.
• If your group is traveling with pets, you will need a pet-friendly property. Request details on breed, size, and type requirements. Usually, property owners charge pet deposits and fees.
• Are you visiting for a specific event or attraction? If so, use a map search to browse nearby rentals.
• Suitable accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for guests with disabilities. Make certain to inquire about wheel chair accessibility, pool lifts and specialized equipment needs.

More tips for your stay:

• Take a copy of the host's phone number and entry/exit procedures for your rental.
• Property managers are great sources of help! Feel free to ask questions during your stay.
• Protect the owner (and your stuff!) by keeping the rental locked up while you are gone, just like you would back home.
• Make a record of any issues with the rental at check in, and immediately send them to the host. We especially recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain time stamps that can be beneficial if a dispute arises.
• Don't forget to respect your neighbors. Often, surrounding homes are filled by permanent residents. Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking rules is the right thing to do.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Locals can typically help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to spend a rainy day, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fine dining?
• Double-check every room of the rental property to make sure that you've packed all belongings on check-out day. Re-check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden items. Clean out the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Document the condition of the property at check-out. We recommend taking a video during your final walk-through.
• Remember to leave a review! Hosts rely on excellent feedback to inspire new bookings. They'll be much obliged for your review. Alternatively, if something wasn't right, other vacationing families will will be grateful for your experience find their best rental home. Remember to be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the owner had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded reasonably to fix it.
