Tips for getting the perfect Oak Island rental home experience:

Find your perfect rental:

• Summertime is high season in Oak Island. Book your vacation in Fall or Spring months to get the benefit of beautiful weather while saving money and avoiding crowds.
• Book your vacation home as soon as possible. Rental schedules generally open 12 months in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many groups book their Summer vacations during Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years Eve gatherings. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Hosts sometimes offer discounts for veterans and active duty military. Remember to ask your property manager if special offers are available for your group.
• Management companies and individual rental owners often offer customers an option to purchase vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which normally will cost anywhere between 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for days missed as a result of medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as ensuing additional evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for details.
• Find a copy of your local Wilmington, NC visitors guide when you arrive at the rental property. If your rental doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers. In addition to great local articles, travel guide magazines contain money saving offers on local restaurants, attractions, and tours.

Choosing and booking the rightrental:

• Select a group lead, choose your vacation week, and select a maximum budget.
• Decide how many bedrooms and the bed configuration you need. Absolutely Beautiful 3 BR\/2.5 BA Beach Cottage-1 Minute to BEACH-PETS-Sleeps 8 has 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our Wilmington, NC rental home search.
• Specific information about bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is commonly available on booking websites. If you don't see them listed, reach out to the host before reserving the vacation home. Remember that most property listings specify the max. guest capacity, which usually includes sofa beds.
• Does your family require specific amenities? Most websites include amenity lists and search filters.
• Proper accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for guests with disabilities. .
• If your family is bringing pets, you'll need to book a pet-friendly property. Get specifics on breed, size, and type requirements. Some property owners require additional pet deposits and fees.

Tips to have a wonderful stay:

• Add the owner's phone number to your smartphone. Take a copy of check in/check out procedures.
• Record any damages to the rental upon arrival, and immediately contact the owner. We especially recommend e-mails and text messages, as they usually contain time stamps that can be valuable if a dispute is filed.
• Property managers are great sources of help! Don't be shy to ask questions during your stay.
• Be a good neighbor. Often, adjacent homes are occupied by local residents. Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking regulations can make a stay significantly more pleasurable.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Locals can frequently point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to charter a fishing boat, have a great night out, or the best spots for BBQ?
• Lock your vacation home while you are out and about. Protect your property!
• Double-check every room of the property to confirm that you've packed all of your family's items at check-out. Remember to check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden belongings. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Document the condition of the property at check-out. We recommend taking a video during your final walk-through.
• Did you have a terrific time? Many rental management companies make it easy for guests to provide reviews. If your rental and/or property management company was wonderful, they would love to hear about it. If anything was out of order and they failed to address it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make a note as part of your comments.
