Tricks and tips to get the best Oak Island rental experience:

Getting the most from your budget:

• June, July, and August are high season in Oak Island. To find the best value, consider shifting your family's Wilmington, NC vacation week to the Spring or Fall shoulder seasons. May, September, and October offer excellent temperatures, , and reduced traffic. Many vacationers use this strategy to find larger homes within budget, or to reserve a beach front rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during the high season.
• The sooner you can book, the easier your search will be. The most desirable rental homes are reserved early. Booking your vacation home 6-12 months before your vacation is recommended. Winter holidays are excellent times to plan and book your rental.
• Some owners offer promotional rates for veterans. Remember to ask your property manager if special discounts are available for your group before you book.
• Booking websites typically offer renters an option to add vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which generally will cost between 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any days missed as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for specifics.
• Often, property management companies supply Wilmington, NC area visitors guides which include coupons, either offered directly by local businesses, or by way of a partnership between the rental management company and the business itself. You can also find Wilmington, NC area magazine and coupon books at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers.

How to choose the perfect vacation home in Oak Island:

• Start by choosing your the best vacation week and a maximum budget.
• Decide how many beds and what type of bedroom configuration your group needs. Ocean Vibes -Dog Friendly -Walk to beach -stores -restaurants -bars -ice cream has 4 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed types is commonly available online. Otherwise, contact the property owner before you book your rental. Note that most properties list the maximum guest capacity, which usually includes pull out couches in living rooms.
• If there's a particular Wilmington, NC beach you are crazy about, look for homes that are either near by, or those that cater especially to your needs.
• Proper accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for guests with disabilities. Confirm all necessary amenities are available before reserving a rental
• Some rentals allow pets, but others don't. Acceptable types of dog or cat, weight and breeds may be restricted, and additional charges may apply. Ask your host about pets before booking.

Tips to have a smooth stay:

• Review arrival and departure procedures before leaving home. Save the instructions to your smartphone, and take a printed backup.
• Record any damages to the property upon arrival, and immediately send them to the property manager. We especially recommend e-mails and text messages, as they usually contain time stamps that are helpful if damages are assessed.
• Hosts are great sources of help! Don't be shy to ask any questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like disagreeable vacationers bothering your peaceful home life. Use the golden rule for best judgement. If they like you, locals might even recommend great restaurants and attractions you would have not otherwise known!
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Residents can usually help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to get the best seafood, have a great night out, or the best spots for fishing?
• Keep the property locked while you are away! Don't let thieves ruin your trip.
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before you drive away, take a walk through the rental property to make sure you've collected all personal belongings. Make sure to check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden treasure. Clean the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Go through the rental one final time and keep an eye out for damage. We recommend walking through with the property manager whenever possible. If the manager isn't available, ensure that you take photos and video of the rental to record its condition.
• After your trip, leave a review! Property managers rely on good ratings to inspire new reservations. They'll be grateful for your review. Alternatively, if something went awry, other vacationing families will be thankful you shared your review and help them have the best future vacation. Please be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the host had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded expeditiously to fix it.
