Finding the best rental experience:

Finding your perfect rental home:

• June, July, and August are high season in the Wilmington, NC area. Reserve your rental home in Fall or Spring months to get the benefit of gorgeous weather while saving money and avoiding crowds.
• Book your rental as early as possible. Rental schedules generally open 12 months in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many groups reserve their Summer rental homes during Christmas and Thanksgiving get-togethers. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective vacation rental company or host if your family qualifies for a reduced rate.
• Property management companies often offer their guests an option to add trip insurance. Trip insurance, which normally costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed days as a result of medical-related issues or weather, as well as ensuing additional evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for specifics.
• Many rental management companies and vacation rental houses supply Wilmington, NC area visitors guide magazines which often include money-saving deals, either offered independently by local companies, or through a partnership between the property management company and the business itself. You can also find Wilmington, NC area magazine and coupon books at local shops and grocery stores.

How to select the best rental in Oak Island:

• Choose your dates and maximum budget.
• Decide how many beds and what type of bedroom configuration you need. Renovated 3BR 1BA Duplex (upper unit), Walk to Beach, Ocean View, Sleeps 6 has 4 bedrooms and 1 bathrooms.
• Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts is normally available on booking websites. If not, email the host before you reserve the vacation property. Note that most listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which often includes pull-out couches.
• If there's an individual Wilmington, NC destination you crave, browse rentals that are either close by, or those that cater to your needs.
• Appropriate accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for the less-mobile. Confirm all necessary amenities are available and included before booking
• If your group is bringing pets, you must book a pet-friendly vacation rental. Request specifics on breed, size, and type restrictions. Often, property managers charge additional pet fees.

Additional considerations:

• Review arrival and departure procedures before traveling. Save the instructions to your smartphone, and take a printed backup.
• To make certain no damages are linked to your family's stay, make note of any problem areas when you arrive. message the rental manager immediately to document any damages. If there is a dispute about who is responsible, having the recorded problems and contact attempts will be valuable.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a fireplace, television set or WIFI setup. Contact your host. They are there to help! A brief telephone call prevents many concerns.
• Be a good neighbor. Frequently, adjacent homes are occupied by permanent residents. Respecting late-night noise limits and parking regulations reduces conflict and allows everyone to enjoy their day.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Neighbors can often point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to grab the best tacos, have a great night out, or the best spots for bird watching?
• Protect the property owner (and your stuff!) by locking and securing the home when you are away, just like you would at home.
• Re-check the property to confirm that you've packed all belongings at departure. Check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden belongings. Clean out the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Inspect the rental a final time and scan for any damage. We recommend inspecting the property with the property manager whenever possible. If the host is not available, ensure that you take photos of the rental to record its condition.
• Did your family have a terrific vacation? Many rental managers make it easy for customers to provide feedback. If your property and/or host was terrific, they always love to hear your praise. If anything was inoperable and they failed to correct it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make a note as part of your feedback.
