Getting the best Oak Island vacation home experience:

When to reserve a Carolina Beach rental & When to go:

• Summertime is high season in the Carolina Beach area. To find the best vacation home within budget, we highly recommend booking in the Fall or Spring. You'll enjoy lower rental rates, greater selection, warm weather and the absence of giant crowds at Carolina Beach restaurants, beaches, and activities. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, or to reserve an oceanfront rental that would otherwise be unavailable during June, July, and August. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Carolina Beach vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday near the ocean? Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with loved ones at the beach.
• In the Carolina Beach area, The sooner you can reserve a home, the easier your search will be. The most desirable rental homes are reserved early. Reserving your vacation property six to twelve months before your vacation is recommended. Winter holidays are excellent times to search for and reserve your vacation home.
• Some hosts offer discounts for veterans and active duty military. Ask your property manager if special offers are available for your group.
• Property managers usually offer guests an option to obtain trip insurance. Trip insurance, which generally will cost 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed trip time as a result of medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance can be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for more information.
• Find a copy of your local Carolina Beach visitors guide magazine upon arrival. If your rental property doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers. In addition to great articles, visitors guide magazines have discounts for nearby accommodations and attractions.

Planning, selecting, and booking your Carolina Beach rental home:

• Select dates and max budget.
• Decide how many beds and the bed 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 sizes & counts is often accessible online. If they are not listed, call the property management company before you book the rental. Remember that most listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which usually includes sofa beds. You'll need to determine what configuration is best for your vacation family.
• Are you visiting for a single event or attraction? Use a map search to locate nearby properties.
• Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for guests that require the use of a wheelchair. Confirm all necessary amenities are available before booking.
• If your group is traveling with pets, you must reserve a rental that allows animals. Request information on breed, weight, and type restrictions. Be aware that some property managers require additional pet deposits and fees.

More considerations:

• Add the owner's information to your phone. Print and take a copy of check in/check out procedures.
• Record any issues with the rental upon arrival, and immediately send them to the host. We especially recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain time stamps that can be useful if damages are attributed to your stay.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a hot tub, A/V setup or coffee maker. Contact your property manager. They are there to help! A brief call can prevent many issues.
• Don't forget to respect your neighbors. Frequently, surrounding homes are filled by local residents. Respecting late-night noise limits and parking regulations can make a stay significantly more pleasurable.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Neighbors can usually help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to get the best seafood, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for shopping?
• Protect the rental owner (and your stuff!) by locking the property while you are away, just like you would back home.
• Don't leave anything behind! Before you drive away, take a walk through the rental to make sure you've collected everything. Remember to check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden belongings. Clean the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Go through the rental one final time and look for damages to contents or the property itself. We advise walking through with the property manager whenever possible. If the property manager is not available, take photos and video of the property to record its condition.
• Did you have a terrific vacation? Many rental home management companies make it easy for clients to provide reviews. If your property and/or host was great, they will likely appreciate your kind words. If anything was wrong and they failed to fix it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make a note as part of your comments.
