Booking the best Oak Island vacation rental experience:

Getting the most from your vacation rental budget:

• Book your rental as early as possible. Rental schedules generally become available twelve months in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many families reserve their Summer vacation rentals during Winter holiday get-togethers. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• June, July, and August are the most expensive months in the Wilmington, NC area. To get the best value, change your group's trip dates to the Spring or Fall shoulder seasons. May, September, and even October offer pleasant weather, less crowded beaches, and greatly reduced traffic. Many vacationers use this strategy to reserve larger homes, or to reserve an oceanfront vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during June, July, and August.
• Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property management company or host if your vacationing group qualifies for a special promotion or discount.
• Management companies and individual rental owners usually offer guests an option to obtain trip insurance. Trip insurance, which normally will cost anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for days missed as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as ensuing additional evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for specifics.
• Find a copy of your local Wilmington, NC visitors guide magazine upon checking in. If your rental doesn't have one, you can find them at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers. In addition to great local articles, visitor guides contain coupons for nearby shops and restaurants.

How to choose and book a perfect Wilmington, NC rental home:

• Select your vacation week and spending budget.
• Decide how many bedrooms and the configuration you need. 5BR\/3.5BA - 2nd Row Home, Ocean Views, Walk to the Beach Sleeps 14 has 6 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms.
• Specific details about bedrooms and bed counts & types is generally accessible online. If not, call the property management company before reserving the property. Remember that most property listings specify maximum guest capacity, which often includes sofa beds and bunks.
• Some rental properties allow pets, but others don't. Allowable types of family pet, size and breeds may be restricted, and added costs may apply. Ask the property manager about your furry family members before booking.
• Are you visiting for a specific event? Try a map search to locate nearby properties.
• Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for persons with disabilities. Make certain to inquire about wheel chair accessibility, pool lifts and specialized equipment needs.

Have a wonderful stay:

• Add the host's contact info to your smartphone. Print and take a copy of arrival/departure procedures.
• Hosts are there to help! Feel free to ask questions during your stay.
• Ensure you protect the rental owner (and your things!) by locking and securing the home when you are gone, just like you would back home.
• During arrival, note any issues with the property and immediately contact the host. Keep records of all coorespondence.
• Be a good neighbor. Often, surrounding homes are filled by local residents. Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking rules reduces conflict and allows everyone to enjoy their day.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Neighbors can frequently help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to find the best bike paths, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for crabbing?
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before departing, take a walk through the property to make sure you've collected all personal belongings. Make sure to check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden treasure. Clean the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Walk through the rental a final time and scan for damage. We advise walking through with the host whenever you can. If the manager isn't available, remember to take pictures of the property to record its condition.
• Leave a review! Hosts rely on good reviews to inspire future reservations. They'll be thankful for your review. Alternatively, if something wasn't as described, other vacationing families will will be grateful for your experience and help them have the best future vacation. Please be fair with your feedback If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the manager could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded expeditiously to fix it.
