Tricks and tips for getting the perfect Oak Island vacation property experience:

When to book & When to go:

• June, July, and August are the most expensive months along the coast of NC. Book your vacation home in the Fall or Spring shoulder seasons to enjoy gorgeous weather while saving money and avoiding crowds. Many vacationers use this strategy to find larger homes within budget, or to book an oceanfront rental that would otherwise be unavailable during the high season. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Southport vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday near the ocean? Christmas, Thanksgiving, and New Years Eve are great times to gather with family and friends at the beach.
• In the Southport area, The sooner you can book a vacation rental, the better your selection will be. The most desirable properties are booked very early. Reserving your rental property up to twelve months before your travel dates is recommended. Holidays such as Christmas and Thanksgiving are excellent times to search for and book your rental home.
• Property managers sometimes offer discounts for active duty military and veterans. Ask your property manager if discounts are available for your group.
• Property management companies often offer guests an option to add vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which commonly will cost between 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed days as a result of medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for details.
• Often, rental management companies and vacation rental houses supply Southport area visitor guide magazines which often include money-saving deals, either offered directly by local companies, or through a relationship with the property management company and the business itself. You can also find Southport area magazine and coupon books at local shops and grocery stores.

Use filters to narrow your rental search:

• Select your vacation dates and maximum budget.
• Note the number bedrooms and what type of bedroom configuration your group needs. 3BR\/2BA Home - COMPLETELY REMODELED, CLOSE TO BEACH, Sleeps 7 has 4 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Specific details about bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is almost always accessible on booking websites. If you don't see them listed, email the property owner before reserving the rental. Note that most properties list the maximum guest capacity, which frequently includes pull-out couches and bunk beds. You'll need to determine what is optimal for your vacation family.
• Are you visiting for a specific event? Use a map search to locate nearby rentals.
• Suitable accessibility can make or break a vacation for guests with disabilities. Make certain to ask about specialized equipment and wheel chair accessibility.
• Some properties allow pets, but some do not. Allowable types of pet, size and breeds may be restricted, and additional fees may apply. Ask your host about your furry family members before booking.

Tips to have a fantastic stay:

• Review arrival and departure procedures before leaving home. Add a note with the instructions to your smartphone, and take a printed backup.
• Upon check-in, document any issues with the rental property and immediately alert the owner. Keep records of all correspondence just in case a dispute arises.
• Property managers are great sources of help! Don't be shy to ask questions during your stay.
• Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking regulations can make a stay significantly more pleasurable. You will increase your chance to make some new local friends, and resident neighbors are usually an incredible resource to find the best local spots.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Locals can frequently help. Who better to ask where to spend a rainy day, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fine dining?
• Lock your rental home while you're out. Protect your property!
• Don't leave anything behind! Before you drive away, take a walk through the rental property to confirm you've collected all of your things. Make sure to check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden treasure. Clean out the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Go through the rental a final time and scan for damage. We suggest walking through with the property manager whenever you can. If the manager is not available, remember to take pictures of the property to record its condition.
• Did you have a wonderful time? Most rental managers make it easy for customers to provide feedback. If your rental and/or property management company was terrific, they would love to hear about it. If anything was imperfect and they failed to fix it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make a note as part of your review.
