Tricks and tips to get the perfect Carolina Beach rental experience:

Getting the most from your rental home budget:

• Reserve your rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules usually become available twelve months in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many families book their Summer vacation rentals during Winter holiday gatherings. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Summer time is high season in the Carolina Beach area. Reserving a rental home in Fall or Spring months is an excellent way to save on your vacation rental. Rates are lower, and you'll find a better selection of desirable homes. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Carolina Beach vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation on the coast? Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with loved ones at your favorite beach.
• Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property manager or host whether your family qualifies for a price reduction or discount.
• Management companies and individual rental owners often offer renters an option to add trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which generally costs 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed vacation time as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for details.
• Find a copy of your local Carolina Beach visitors guide upon arrival. If your rental doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local grocery stores and visitor centers. In addition to great local articles, visitors guide magazines have discounts for local restaurants, attractions, and tours.

Make a plan and pick the perfectrental:

• Choose vacation week and spending budget.
• Decide how many bedrooms and the configuration you need. Oak Island Beach House -- Sand, Sun, and Fun Just Steps Away!! has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Specific information about bedrooms and bed counts is normally available online. If you don't see them listed, email or call the property owner before booking the vacation property. Note that most properties list the max. guest capacity, which often includes pull-out couches. You will need to work out what configuration is best for your trip.
• If your group is traveling with pets, search for a pet-friendly property. Ask for details on breed, weight, and type restrictions. Usually, hosts charge additional pet fees.
• Visiting for a single attraction or event? Try a map search to browse nearby rentals.
• Proper accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for those with limited mobility. Make certain to ask about specialized equipment and wheel chair accessibility.

Advice for a smooth stay:

• Review check in & check out procedures before traveling. Add a note with the directions to your phone, and take a printed copy.
• Hosts are great sources of help! Don't be shy to ask questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Lock your rental property while you're gone! Don't let thieves spoil your holiday.
• Note any issues with the property during check in, and immediately send them to the property manager. We specifically recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain time stamps that can be valuable if there is a dispute.
• Respecting quiet hours and parking rules can make a stay more pleasurable. Be a good neighbor. You'll increase your chance to make some new local friends, and resident neighbors can be a fantastic resource to find the best local attractions.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Locals can usually point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to order the best nachos, have a great night out, or the best spots for fishing?
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before you drive away, walk through the rental property to confirm you've collected all belongings. Make sure to check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden belongings. Clean 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.
