Tips and Tricks for getting the best Oak Island vacation home experience:

How to get the best rental home value:

• Summertime is the most expensive season in coastal NC. Reserve your Carolina Beach vacation in Fall or Spring months to enjoy gorgeous weather while saving money and avoiding crowded roads, restaurants, and activities. Many vacationers use this strategy to find larger homes within budget, or to book an oceanfront vacation rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during the high season.
• Book your rental as early as possible. Rental schedules generally become available a year in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many families reserve their Summer rental homes during Winter holiday gatherings. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Property management companies sometimes offer promotional rates for active duty military and veterans. Make sure to check with your host or property manager to see if special offers are available for your family.
• Property managers often offer their guests an option to buy vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which commonly costs 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed time as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for specifics.
• Many management companies supply Carolina Beach area visitors guide magazines which include coupons, either offered independently by local companies, or through a partnership between the rental management company and the business itself. You can also find Carolina Beach area magazine and coupon books at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers.

Planning, picking, and booking the perfect Carolina Beach rental:

• Select a group lead, choose your vacation week, and select a spending budget.
• Decide how many bedrooms and what type of bedroom configuration your group needs. Soulshine - OKI spacious family home, short walk to beach, park, and shops has 6 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms.
• Specific details about bedrooms and bed counts & types is normally available on booking pages. If you don't see them listed, email the host before booking your home. Remember that most listings specify maximum guest capacity, which usually includes pull out couches in living rooms. You'll need to determine what configuration is right for your vacation group.
• Looking for specific amenities? Most rental search websites include search filters for amenities. Amenity filters help you quickly remove less-optimal properties.
• Suitable accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for those with limited mobility. Make certain to ask about specialized equipment and wheel chair accessibility.
• If your group is traveling with pets, you'll need to find a pet-friendly property. Make sure to ask for specifics on breed, size, and type restrictions. Often, property owners charge additional pet fees.

Some things to know before you go:

• We recommend storing the owner's contact information in your smartphone and wallet.
• Upon arrival, note any issues with the property and immediately alert the property manager. Keep records of all correspondence just in case a dispute arises.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a hot tub, intercom or coffee maker. Contact your owner. They are there to help! A brief phone call prevents lots of problems.

• Lock your rental home while you are out and about. Protect the owner's property and your stuff!
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before departing, walk through the rental to make sure you've collected all personal items. Remember to check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden items. Clean the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Walk through the property a final time and scan for any damage. We advise walking through with the host whenever possible. If the property manager is not available, ensure that you take photos of the rental to record its condition.
• Remember to leave feedback! Property managers rely on excellent reviews to inspire future bookings. They'll be grateful for your review. Alternatively, if something wasn't right, other families will appreciate that you share your review find their best vacation rental. Be fair with your review.
