Totally equipped kitchen, comfortable living room, and the kids will appreciate the enormous fenced in backyard- or go the bunk bed room equipped with a DVD player, games, puzzles, books for hours of fun filled play time.

Strategies to get the best vacation home experience:

Money saving strategies:

• June, July, and August are the most expensive months in coastal NC. Booking your Wilmington, NC vacation rental in Fall or Spring months is a great way to save money on your vacation home. Rates are lower, and you'll find a better selection of suitable homes. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Wilmington, NC vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday on the coast? Christmas, Thanksgiving, and New Years Eve are great times to gather with friends and family at the beach.
• Book your rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules often open twelve months in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many families reserve their Summer rentals during Winter holiday get-togethers. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property management company or host whether your group qualifies for a reduced rate.
• Management companies and individual rental owners frequently offer customers an option to add trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which normally costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed vacation time as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for additional information.
• Find a copy of your local Wilmington, NC visitors guide magazine when you check-in. If your rental doesn't have one, you can find them at local shops and visitor centers. In addition to great articles, visitor guides have offers and deals for local attractions, tours, restaurants, and shops.

Choosing the best rental home in Oak Island:

• First and foremost, have your family agree to date ranges and a maximum budget.
• Decide how many bedrooms and the bed configuration your group needs. Charming 3BR\/2BA Home Located on a Direct Beach Access Street-Sleeps7 has 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms.
• Precise information about bedrooms and bed types is usually accessible on booking websites. If not, email or call the property owner before reserving the vacation home. Remember that most properties list the maximum guest capacity, which frequently includes sofa beds.
• If there's a particular Wilmington, NC destination you simply love, look for rentals that are either close by, or those that cater especially to your needs.
• Suitable accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for persons with a disability. Make certain to inquire about wheel chair accessibility, pool lifts and specialized equipment needs.
• Some properties allow pets, but some don't. Allowable types of pet, weight and breeds may be restricted, and additional costs may apply. Ask the owner about allowable breeds and types before booking.

Advice for your stay:

• Be sure you get the host's phone number and check in/check out procedures for your rental.
• During arrival, document any issues with the rental property and immediately alert the owner. Keep records of all coorespondence.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a garage door opener, stereo or WIFI setup. Contact your owner. They are there to help! A brief call prevents a lot of concerns.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like disrespectful visitors bothering your peaceful home life. Use the golden rule for common sense. Happy residents may even recommend great beaches and attractions you would have never otherwise known!
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Neighbors can typically help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to find the best seashells, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for crabbing?
• Ensure you protect the rental owner (and your stuff!) by locking and securing the home when you are out, just like you would back home.
• Upon check-out, complete a walk-through to make sure you have not forget anything. Make sure to check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden treasure. Clean out 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 your family have a great vacation? Many rental home management companies make it easy for guests to provide feedback. If your property and/or property management company was terrific, they will likely appreciate your kind words. If anything was wrong and they failed to address it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make it a point as part of your feedback.
