What is Pelican Sol? Pelican Sol is a freshly refreshed beach getaway that embodies the spirit of Oak Island. Quietly located in the heart of Oak Island, Pelican Sol sits directly on the Intracoastal tidal marsh and a mere three hundred steps from Long Beach and the Atlantic Ocean. Ocean Crest pier is your backdrop as you find your ideal sand sanctuary on the powdery beach. Imagine yourself sitting on one of the cavernous decks appreciating the ocean breeze as you listen to the surf roll in or experience beautiful vistas of the marsh and its wild life. At Pelican Sol, you can wake up in the Coral Reef Room and greet the morning as the sun bathes the island in a golden hello. Or, you can watch the sun slip below the horizon to a kaleidoscope of tropical hues from the Tidal Marsh Room. In the Captain’s Quarters, you can let your imagination run wild as the nautical ambience whisks you away to visions of ships and scalawags. When you wind down your day of fun in the sun, a entirely enclosed outdoor shower can wash away the salt and sand, but never the memories. And when the stars come out, let the essence of the island recharge your soul under the canopy of a coastal nighttime sky. We know you will adore Pelican Sol as much as we do! Cheers!!!

How to find the best rental experience:

Finding the best value:

• Booking in the Fall or Spring shoulder seasons is our favorite way to save money on your vacation home. Rates are lower, and you'll find a larger selection of suitable properties. 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? Christmas, Thanksgiving, and New Years Eve are great times to gather with family and friends at the beach.
• Reserve your vacation home as soon as possible. Rental schedules usually open 12 months in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many groups book their Summer vacations during Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years Eve gatherings. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Some property management companies offer discounts for veterans and active duty military. Make sure to check with your host or property manager to see if special offers are available for your group.
• Booking websites often offer their guests an option to purchase trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which generally will cost 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed days as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance can be a a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for specifics.
• Many management companies and vacation rental houses supply Carolina Beach area travel guide magazines which include special deals, either offered independently by local companies, or by way of a relationship between the rental management company and the business itself. You can also find Carolina Beach visitors guide and coupon books at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers.

Narrow your Search:

• Start by choosing your potential vacation weeks and a spending budget.
• Decide how many bedrooms and the bed configuration your family needs. Charming 3-bedroom waterfront house in OKI just steps from public beach access has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our Carolina Beach rental home search.
• Specific details about bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is regularly available online. If they are not listed, contact the property manager before you reserve the vacation property. Remember that most properties list the max. guest capacity, which frequently includes pull-out couches and bunk beds.
• Looking for unique amenities? Most rental search websites include search filters with amenity lists. Amenity filters help you quickly remove less-optimal properties.
• Suitable accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for those with limited mobility. Confirm all required amenities are included before booking.
• If your family is vacationing with pets, search for a property that allows animals. Make sure to ask for specifics on breed, size, and type requirements. Note that some hosts charge additional pet fees.

Advice for a smooth stay:

• Take a copy of the property manager's contact number and entry/exit procedures for your rental property.
• During check-in, record any issues with the property and immediately alert the host. Record all correspondence just in case a dispute arises.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a garage door opener, intercom or coffee maker. Contact your host. They are there to help! A brief text message prevents quite a few concerns.
• Respect your neighbors. Often times, surrounding homes are filled by permanent residents. Respecting late-night noise limits and parking rules reduces conflict and allows everyone to enjoy their day.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Local residents can often help. Who better to ask where to find the fresh catch of the day, have a great night out, or the best spots for BBQ?
• Ensure you protect the owner (and your things!) by locking the rental while you are gone, just like you would back home.
• Re-check the rental property to make sure that you've packed all belongings on check-out day. Remember to check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden treasure. Clean out the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Go through the rental one final time and scan for any damage. We recommend walking through with the property manager whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the host isn't available, take photos of the rental to record its condition.
• Remember to leave a review! Hosts rely on good ratings to drive more reservations. They'll be thankful for your feedback. Alternatively, if something wasn't right, other vacationers will will be grateful for your experience and help them have the best future vacation. Remember to be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the host had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded quickly to solve it.
