Strategies to get the best Oak Island rental home experience:

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

• Summer time is high season in the Carolina Beach area. Booking your Carolina Beach vacation rental in Fall or Spring is our best tip for saving money on your vacation home. Rental rates are lower, and you'll find a better selection of acceptable homes. Many vacationers use this strategy to find larger homes within budget, or to reserve an oceanfront rental that would otherwise be unavailable during the Summer. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Carolina Beach vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday near the ocean? Thanksgiving and Christmas are great times to gather with family and friends at your favorite beach.
• In the Carolina Beach area, The sooner you can reserve a home, the better your selection will be. The best vacation rentals are reserved very early. Reserving your vacation rental 6-12 months before your vacation is recommended. Holidays such as Christmas and Thanksgiving are excellent times to search for and book your vacation rental.
• Some hosts and property managers offer rate reductions for veterans. Ask your host or property manager if special discounts are available for your family before you book.
• Booking websites usually offer their guests an option to purchase vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which generally will cost anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed vacation time as a result of medical-related issues or weather, as well as hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel stay or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance might be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for specifics.
• Often, management companies and vacation rental houses supply Carolina Beach area visitor guide magazines which include special deals, either offered directly by local companies, or by way of a relationship 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.

Selecting the perfect vacation rental:

• First and foremost, have your group select a vacation week and a maximum budget.
• Decide how many beds and the configuration you need. Seaside Escape-3 bedroom,dog friendly,walk to beach,fenced yard,screened porch. has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Specific details about bedrooms and bed counts & types is regularly accessible on booking pages. If not, reach out to the property manager before you book the home. Note that most properties list the maximum guest capacity, which oftentimes includes pull out couches in living rooms.
• Visiting for a single event or attraction? Try a map search to find nearby properties.
• Proper accessibility can make or break a vacation for persons with disabilities. Confirm all required amenities are included before reserving a rental.
• If your family is traveling with pets, you must reserve a pet-friendly rental. Make sure to ask for specifics on breed, weight, and type requirements. Some property managers require additional pet deposits and fees.

Considerations for your stay:

• Get the owner's phone number and check in/check out procedures for your rental property.
• Make a record of any issues with the property at check in, and immediately contact the host. We especially recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain built-in time stamps that are very helpful if damages are attributed to your stay.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a fireplace, television set or thermostat. Contact your owner. They are there to help! A brief telephone call prevents lots of problems.
• Be a good neighbor. Often times, adjacent homes are filled by permanent residents. Respecting noise limits and parking policies reduces conflict and allows everyone to enjoy their day.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Residents can frequently help. Who better to ask where to rent beach equipment, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fishing?
• Protect the owner (and your stuff!) by locking the rental when you are gone, just like you would at home.
• Don't leave anything behind! Before departing, take a walk through the property to make sure you've collected all personal items. Remember to check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden belongings. Clean out the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Did your family have a excellent vacation? Most rental home management companies make it easy for clients to provide comments. If your rental property and/or host was fantastic, they will likely appreciate your kind words. If anything was out of order and they failed to address it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make it a point as part of your feedback.
