Tips to get the perfect Oak Island vacation home experience:

Sticking to a spending budget:

• The earlier your group can book, the easier your search will be. The most desirable rental properties are reserved early. Booking your vacation home up to 12 months before your vacation dates is recommended. Winter holidays are excellent times to search for and reserve your rental.
• Summer time is high season in the Southport area. To get the best value, try shifting your vacation dates to the Spring or Fall shoulder seasons. May, September, and October offer great weather, less crowded beaches, and reduced traffic. Many vacationers use this strategy to find larger homes within budget, or to book a beach front rental that would otherwise be unavailable during the Summer.
• Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property manager or host if your vacationing group qualifies for a special promotion or discount.
• Property management companies typically offer guests an option to add trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which commonly costs between 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for days missed as a result of medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance can be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for program terms and fees.
• Look for your local visitors guide upon checking in. If your rental home doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local shops and visitor centers. In addition to great information, visitors guide magazines have offers and deals for nearby tours, shops, and attractions.

How to select the perfect rental in Oak Island:

• Begin by selecting a vacation week and a max budget.
• Determine how many beds and the bed configuration you need. 5BR\/2.5BA Home - Only 1 block to the beach, Sleeps 12 has 6 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our search.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts is almost always accessible on booking pages. Otherwise, email or call the host before you book the vacation home. Remember that most properties list the maximum guest capacity, which frequently includes pull out couches in living rooms.
• If your group is vacationing with pets, you will need a pet-friendly rental. Ask for specifics on breed, size, and type requirements. Some property managers require additional pet deposits and fees.
• Does your family require unique amenities? Most rental search websites include search filters for amenities. Filtering by amenity will allow you to quickly find your ideal rental.
• Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for persons with disabilities. Remember to confirm all required amenities are available and included before reserving a rental

Tips to have a fantastic stay:

• Get the property manager's contact number and check in/check out procedures for your rental home. We recommend storing the host's contact information in your smartphone and wallet.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a garage door opener, elevator or WIFI setup. Contact your property manager. They are there to help! A brief text message can prevent many problems.
• Lock your rental home while you're away. Protect the owner's property and your stuff!
• During check-in, note any damages to the rental property and immediately contact the property manager. Record all correspondence just in case a dispute arises.
• Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking policies can make a stay significantly more pleasurable. You'll increase your chance to make some new local friends, and resident neighbors can be a great source for finding the best local spots.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Local residents can typically help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to order the best nachos, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for BBQ?
• Double-check the vacation property to confirm that you've packed all belongings on check-out day. Check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden items. Clean the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Did you have a great stay? Most rental home management companies make it easy for travelers to provide feedback. If your property and/or property management company was great, they would love to hear it. If anything was defective and they failed to correct 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 comments.
