How to get the best Oak Island rental home experience:

Money saving strategies:

• The earlier your group can reserve a vacation rental, the easier your search will be. The most desirable rental homes are reserved early. Reserving your rental property 6-12 months before your vacation dates is recommended. Holidays such as Christmas and Thanksgiving are excellent times to plan and book your rental property.
• Reserve your Carolina Beach rental home in the Fall or Spring shoulder seasons 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 reserve an oceanfront vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during the Summer months.
• Owners sometimes offer discounts for veterans and active duty military. Ask your host or property manager if special discounts are available for your family.
• Property management companies usually offer guests an option to buy vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which normally costs between 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed days as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for more information.
• Often, rental management companies supply Carolina Beach area travel guide magazines which will include money-saving offers, either offered directly by local companies, or by way of a relationship with the management company and the business itself. You can also find Carolina Beach area magazine and coupon books at local shops and grocery stores.

Selecting the best vacation home in Oak Island:

• Select your vacation dates and budget.
• Decide how many beds and the bed configuration your family requires. Pet friendly, short walk to beach, super clean has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our Carolina Beach rentals search.
• Specific information regarding bedrooms and bed counts is commonly available on booking pages. Otherwise, reach out to the property owner before you book your rental. Remember that most listings specify maximum guest capacity, which often includes sofa beds and bunks. You will need to determine what configuration is optimal for your family.
• Some rental properties allow pets, but others don't. Acceptable types of family pet, size and breeds may be restricted, and added charges may apply. Ask the property manager about your furry family members before booking.
• Are you visiting for a single attraction? Try a map search to find nearby properties.
• Suitable accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for those with limited mobility. .

During your stay:

• Take a copy of the property manager's contact number and entry/exit procedures for your rental.
• Property managers are great sources of help! Feel free to ask any questions during your stay.
• Lock your vacation home while you are out and about. Protect the owner's property and your stuff!
• To make certain that damages aren't linked to your family's visit, inspect the rental for any problem areas upon your arrival. E-mail the rental manager immediately to relay your findings. If there is a dispute, having the recorded problems and contact attempts will be useful.
• Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking regulations can make a stay significantly more pleasurable. Be a good neighbor. You will increase your chance to make some new local friends, and resident neighbors are often a great source for finding the best local attractions.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Locals can usually help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to find the best seashells, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for BBQ?
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before departing, take a walk through the rental to reconfirm you've collected all belongings. Make sure to check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden belongings. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Walk through the property one final time and keep an eye out for any damage. We advise walking through with the host whenever possible. If the manager is not available, ensure that you take photos and video of the property to record its condition.
• After your trip, leave a review! Property owners rely on great ratings to stimulate new bookings. They'll be grateful for your review. Alternatively, if something wasn't as described, other families will appreciate that you share your review and help them have the best future vacation. Be fair with your review. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the host could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded expeditiously to remedy it.
