Tricks and tips to get the very best vacation home experience:

How to get the best rental home value:

• Summer months are the most expensive season along the coast of NC. To find the best value, try shifting your vacation to the Spring or Fall shoulder seasons. May, September, and even October offer warmer temperatures, fewer crowds, and greatly reduced traffic.
• The sooner you can reserve a vacation rental, the easier your search will be. The most desirable vacation rentals are reserved early. Booking your vacation property 6-12 months before your travel dates is recommended. Holidays such as Christmas and Thanksgiving are excellent times to plan and book your rental property.
• Some property management companies offer discounts for veterans. Remember to ask your host or property manager if special offers are available for your group.
• Property managers usually offer renters an option to add trip insurance. Trip insurance, which will generally cost between 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed trip time as a result of medical-related issues or weather, as well as ensuing additional evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance might be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for more information.
• Often, management companies and vacation rental houses supply Carolina Beach area visitors guides which include special deals, 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 area magazine and coupon books at local shops and grocery stores.

How to pick the perfect rental in Oak Island:

• First and foremost, have your family choose date ranges and a spending budget.
• Decide how many bedrooms and the configuration your group requires. DreamWaver - Beautiful new home w\/ pool steps from the beach! has 4 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms.
• Precise details about bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is almost always accessible online. If you don't see them listed, reach out to the host before booking the home. Note that most property listings specify maximum guest capacity, which oftentimes includes sofa beds and bunks. You'll need to determine what is best for your group.
• Are you visiting for a single attraction? If so, use a map search to browse nearby properties.
• Suitable accessibility can make or break a vacation for guests with disabilities. .
• Some properties allow pets, but some don't. Allowable types of pet, weight and breeds may be restricted, and additional costs may apply. Ask the host about allowable breeds and types before booking.

Tips for a wonderful stay:

• Add the host's contact info to your smartphone. Take a copy of arrival/departure procedures.
• Document any issues with the rental at check in, and immediately send them to the owner. We specifically recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain time stamps that are valuable if a dispute is filed.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a hot tub, television set or appliance. Contact your owner. They are there to help! A brief call prevents many issues.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like obnoxious vacationers disrupting your peaceful neighborhood. Employ the golden rule for best judgement. Happy residents may even recommend great local food and places you would have not otherwise known about!
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Locals can typically point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to order the best nachos, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for crabbing?
• Ensure you protect the property owner (and your things!) by locking the rental while you are out, just like you would back home.
• Just prior to departing, take a final walk-through to make sure you have not forget anything. Make sure to check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden treasure. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Walk through the property a final time and scan for any damage. We suggest walking through with the host whenever possible. If the manager isn't available, ensure that you take photographs of the rental to record its condition at check-out.
• Leave feedback! Property managers rely on great feedback to propel future bookings. They'll be grateful for your feedback. Alternatively, if something went awry, other vacationers will appreciate that you share your feedback and help them have the best future vacation. Be fair with your review. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the manager could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded expeditiously to fix it.
