Finding the best rental experience:

Money saving strategies:

Summer months are the most expensive season along the coast of NC. To get the largest rental within your budget, we highly recommend reserving in Spring or Fall. You'll benefit from lower rental rates, greater selection, beautiful weather and the absence of large crowds at popular attractions and restaurants. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Southport vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday near the ocean? Thanksgiving and Christmas are great times to gather with loved ones at your favorite beach.
Book your vacation home as soon as possible. Rental schedules often open 12 months in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many groups reserve their Summer vacations during Thanksgiving and Christmas get-togethers. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
Property managers sometimes offer promotional rates for veterans. Ask your property manager if discounts are available for your family.
Management companies and individual rental owners frequently offer their guests an option to add trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which costs 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for days missed as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for additional information.
Look for your local Southport area magazine when you arrive at the rental property. If your rental property doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers. In addition to great information, visitors guide magazines have deals for local shops and restaurants.

How to pick the best vacation home in Oak Island:

Select your vacation week and max budget.
Note the number beds and what type of bedroom configuration your family requires. PRIME LOCATION, OCEANFRONT, DOG FRIENDLY-Sleeps 8 has 4 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts is generally accessible online. Otherwise, contact the host before reserving the vacation property. Remember that most listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which frequently includes sofa beds. You will need to determine what is right for your vacation family.
If there's a certain Southport beach you are crazy about, search for homes that are either close by, or those that cater to your requirements.
Suitable accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for persons with disabilities. .
Some properties allow pets, but others do not. Acceptable types of pet, weight and breeds may be restricted, and added costs may apply. Ask the owner about allowable breeds and types before booking.

Advice for your stay:

Take a copy of the property manager's phone number and entry/exit procedures for your rental. Store the manager's contact information in your smartphone.
At Check-in, record any issues with the property and immediately contact the host. Record all correspondence in case a dispute arises.
Ask questions. You may want instructions for a fireplace, A/V setup or WIFI setup. Contact your host. They are there to help! A brief text message can prevent many concerns.
Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking rules can make a stay more pleasurable. You'll enhance your chance to make some new local friends, and resident neighbors are often a great resource to find the best local spots.
Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Locals can often point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to find the best bike paths, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for crabbing?
Lock your rental home while you're away. Keep your property safe!
On check-out day, take a walk-through to make sure you did not leave anything behind. Remember to check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden belongings. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
Walk through the property a final time and keep an eye out for any damage. We advise inspecting the property with the property manager whenever you can. If the manager isn't available, remember to take photos of the rental to record its condition.
Did your family have a great stay? Many rental websites make it easy for guests to provide feedback. If your rental property and/or property management company was fantastic, they would love to hear about it. If anything was inoperable and they failed to fix it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make it a point as part of your review.
