Vacation rental tips and tricks:

Find your perfect rental home:

• Summer is high season in Oak Island. To get the best value, consider shifting your group's vacation week to the Spring or Fall shoulder seasons. May, September, and October offer warm weather, , and greatly reduced traffic. Many vacationers use this method to find larger homes within budget, or to book a beach front rental that would otherwise be unavailable during the Summer. 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, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with friends and family at the beach.
• The sooner your group can reserve a vacation home, the easier your search will be. The most desirable properties are booked early. Booking your vacation home six to twelve months before your vacation is recommended. Holiday gatherings are excellent times to search for and book your rental.
• Some hosts offer special rates for active duty military and veterans. Make sure to check with your property manager to see if special offers are available for your group.
• Property managers frequently offer their guests an option to buy trip insurance. Trip insurance, which normally costs between 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed trip time as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel stay or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for specifics.
• Many management companies and vacation rental houses supply Wilmington, NC area visitor guide magazines which will include money-saving offers, either offered independently by local businesses, or by way of a partnership between the rental management company and the business itself. You can also find Wilmington, NC visitors guide magazine and coupon books at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers.

How to pick the best rental home:

• Begin by choosing your a vacation week and a budget.
• Note the number bedrooms and what type of bedroom configuration your group needs. Heron Pointe: Oceanwalk home with waterway views and just a short stroll to the has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Specific details about bedrooms and bed counts is regularly available online. Otherwise, reach out to the host before you reserve the home. Note that most property listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which often includes pull out couches in living rooms. You'll need to determine what configuration is best for your group.
• Visiting for a specific attraction or event? Try a map search to browse nearby rentals.
• Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for persons with a disability. Remember to confirm all required amenities are available and included before booking
• Some properties allow pets, but some don't. Acceptable types of family pet, weight and breeds may be restricted, and additional costs may apply. Ask your host about your furry family members before booking.

Know before you go:

• Add the property manager's contact information to your smartphone. Print and take a copy of arrival/departure procedures.
• Make a record of any issues with the rental during check in, and immediately send them to the owner. We especially recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain built-in time stamps that are very helpful if a dispute is filed.
• Hosts are great sources of help! Don't be shy to ask any questions during your stay.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like obnoxious vacationers bothering your peaceful home. Use the golden rule for best judgement. If they like you, locals might even recommend great local food and places you would've not otherwise known!
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Neighbors can often help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to rent beach equipment, have a great night out, or the best spots for fishing?
• Protect the owner (and your stuff!) by locking the property while you are gone, just like you would back home.
• Double-check the property to make sure that you've packed all personal items on check-out day. Check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden belongings. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Did you have a terrific vacation? Many rental home management companies make it easy for guests to provide comments. If your rental and/or host was wonderful, they always love to hear your praise. If anything was out of order and they failed to fix 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 review.
