Booking the best rental experience:

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

• In the Wilmington, NC area, The earlier your group can book a rental home, the better your selection will be. The best vacation rentals are reserved very early. Booking your vacation rental 6-12 months before your travel dates is recommended. Winter holidays are excellent times to search for and book your rental.
• June, July, and August are high season in Oak Island. To find the best value, consider changing your family's Wilmington, NC vacation to the Spring or Fall seasons. May, September, and October offer pleasant weather, less crowded beaches, and reduced traffic. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, or to book a beach front rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during the Summer months. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Wilmington, NC vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday near the ocean? Thanksgiving and Christmas are great times to gather with loved ones at the beach.
• Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective host if your vacationing group qualifies for a price reduction.
• Property managers typically offer guests an option to buy trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which usually will cost you 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed days as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel stay or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance can be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for specifics.
• Often, management companies supply Wilmington, NC area visitor guide magazines which will include special deals, either offered independently by local businesses, or by way of a partnership between the management company and the business itself.

Note that most property listings specify the max. guest capacity, which often includes pull-out couches. You'll need to establish what configuration is best for your group.

Tips to have a smooth stay:

• Be sure you get the property manager's contact number and arrival/departure procedures for your rental property.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a hot tub, television set or thermostat. Contact your owner. They are there to help! A brief text message can prevent quite a few difficulties.
• Lock your rental home while you are out. Protect the owner's property and your stuff!
• To make certain that damages are not linked to your family's visit, make note of any problem areas when you arrive. Speak to the property manager immediately to record any damages. If there is a dispute about legal responsibility later, having a record of concerns and contact attempts will be valuable.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like obnoxious visitors bothering your quiet neighborhood. Apply the golden rule for best judgement. If they like you, locals might even recommend great local food and attractions you would have not otherwise known about!
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Locals can typically help. Who better to ask where to find the best seashells, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for crabbing?
• Re-check the property to make sure that you've packed all personal items on check-out day. Remember to check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden belongings. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Inspect the rental one final time and keep an eye out for damage. We advise walking through with the property manager whenever you can. If the manager is not available, ensure that you take photos and video of the property to record its condition.
• Leave feedback! Property managers rely on excellent feedback to inspire new reservations. They'll be much obliged for your feedback. Alternatively, if something went awry, other families will appreciate that you share 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 had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded reasonably to remedy it.
