Our top Oak Island vacation rental tips:

Finding your best deal:

• Book your rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules generally become available twelve months in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many groups book their Summer rental homes during Winter holiday gatherings. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Summertime is the most expensive season in Oak Island. Booking in the Fall or Spring is a good way to save money on your vacation rental. Rental rates are lower, and you'll find a better selection of acceptable homes.
• Owners sometimes offer rate reductions for active duty military and veterans. Ask your property manager if special discounts are available for your family before you book.
• Property managers often offer guests an option to buy trip insurance. Trip insurance, which will generally cost 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed time as a result of medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel stay or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance can be a a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for more information.
• Many property management companies supply Wilmington, NC area travel guide magazines which will include special deals, either offered directly by local companies, or through a relationship with the property management company and the business itself. You can also find Wilmington, NC visitors guide magazine and coupon books at local shops and grocery stores.

Selecting the best rental home in Oak Island:

• Start by having your group select trip dates and a budget.
• Note the number beds and what type of bedroom configuration your family requires. Smith's Bermuda \/ 914 E Beach Drive - Coastal Vacation Resorts has 6 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed types is regularly available online. Otherwise, email or call the property management company before reserving your home. Note that most listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which typically includes pull out couches in living rooms. You'll need to work out what is right for your vacation family.
• Some properties allow pets, and some do not. Acceptable types of pet, size and breeds may be restricted, and additional fees may apply. Ask your host about allowable pet guidelines before booking.
• Looking for special amenities? Most rental websites include search filters with amenity lists.
• Appropriate accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for the less-mobile. Confirm all required amenities are included before reserving a rental.

Have a wonderful stay:

• Put the owner's information in your smartphone and wallet.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a fireplace, television set or coffee maker. Contact your owner. They are there to help! A brief call prevents many concerns.
• Protect the owner (and your things!) by locking and securing the home while you are out, just like you would back home.
• Upon arrival, document any issues with the property and immediately contact the owner. Record all coorespondence.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like disrespectful visitors bothering your peaceful home. Use the golden rule for best judgement. Happy residents may even recommend great local food and scenic spots you would've never otherwise known!
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Neighbors can frequently point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to rent beach equipment, have a great night out, or the best spots for bird watching?
• Upon check-out, take a walk-through to confirm you didn't forget any personal items. Make sure to check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden belongings. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Go through the property one final time and scan for damages to contents or the property itself. We suggest walking through with the property manager whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the property manager is not available, take photos of the property to record its condition at check-out.
• Did you have a excellent time? Most vacation rental websites make it easy for travelers to provide reviews. If your property and/or property manager was great, they will likely appreciate your kind words. If anything was out of order and they failed to correct it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make a note as part of your feedback.
