Tricks and tips for getting the perfect Carolina Beach rental experience:

When to visit Oak Island & When to reserve a Oak Island rental home:

• Book your rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules often open 12 months in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many families book their Summer rental homes during holiday get-togethers. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Summer time is high season in Oak Island. Reserve your rental home in the Spring or Fall to enjoy warm weather while saving money and avoiding crowded roads, restaurants, and activities. Many vacationers use this strategy to reserve larger homes, or to book an oceanfront vacation rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during the Summer months.
• Owners sometimes offer discounts for veterans and active duty military. Ask your host or property manager if special offers are available for your family before you book.
• Property management companies usually offer their guests an option to buy trip insurance. Trip insurance, which costs 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed vacation time as a result of medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel stay or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for details.
• Find a copy of your local Carolina Beach visitors guide magazine upon arrival. If your rental home doesn't have one, you can find them at local shops and fuel stations. In addition to great information, visitors guide magazines have deals for nearby accommodations, tours and attractions.

Selecting and booking yourvacation home:

• To start, have your group choose dates and a budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and the bed configuration you need. Oak Island beach cottage steps to the beach and close to Oak Island Pier has 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts & types is normally accessible online. If you don't see them listed, reach out to the host before booking the property. Remember that most listings specify maximum guest capacity, which often includes sofa beds in living rooms.
• Some rentals allow pets, but some don't. Allowable types of pet, size and breeds may be restricted, and added costs may apply. Ask the host about allowable pet guidelines before booking.
• Visiting for a single event or attraction? Use a map search to find nearby properties.
• Proper accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for guests with disabilities. Confirm all necessary amenities are included before booking.

Tips for your stay:

• Take a copy of the owner's phone number and arrival/departure procedures for your rental.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a garage door opener, television set or kitchen appliance. Contact your owner. They are there to help! A brief telephone call can prevent lots of concerns.
• Keep the property locked while you're out! Don't let burglars spoil your trip.

• Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking policies can make a stay significantly more pleasurable. You'll increase your chance to make local friends, and resident neighbors are often a fantastic resource to find the best local spots.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Neighbors can often point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to rent beach equipment, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fine dining?
• Just before checking out, take a walk-through to confirm you have not forget anything. Re-check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden items. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Go through the property a final time and scan for any damage. We advise inspecting the property with the property manager whenever you can. If the host isn't available, ensure that you take photos and video of the property to record its condition.
• Did your group have a excellent time? Most rental managers make it easy for vacationers to provide reviews. If your property and/or host was wonderful, they will likely appreciate your kind words. If anything was wrong and they failed to correct it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make it a point as part of your comments.
