Tips and Tricks to get the best Oak Island rental home experience:

How to get the best rental home value:

• The earlier you can book a vacation rental, the easier your search will be. The best properties are reserved early. Booking your rental up to twelve months before your travel dates is recommended. Winter holidays are excellent times to plan and reserve your vacation home.
• June, July, and August are the most expensive months in coastal NC. Book your rental home in Fall or Spring to enjoy warm weather while saving money and avoiding crowds. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, or to reserve an oceanfront rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during the high season.
• Owners sometimes offer special rates for veterans. Check with your property manager to see if special offers are available for your group.
• Property managers frequently offer renters an option to obtain trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which will generally cost between 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed time as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel stay or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance might be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for program terms and fees.
• Many rental management companies supply Southport area visitor guides which include money-saving offers, either offered directly by local companies, or through a relationship between the management company and the business itself. You can also find Southport visitors guide and coupon books at local shops and grocery stores.

Narrow your Search:

• Start by having your family agree to dates and a maximum budget.
• Decide how many bedrooms and the bed configuration you need. Dog Friendly, Beach House Just Minutes From The Beach has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts & types is often available on booking websites. If they are not listed, email the host before you reserve the rental. Remember that most property listings specify the max. guest capacity, which frequently includes sofa beds and bunks. You'll need to work out which bed configuration is right for your vacation.
• Do your family pets travel with you? Although a number of vacation homes allow pets or animals, guidelines and costs vary per property. Type of pet, size and breeds may be limited. Make sure to ask before booking, and study your agreement thoroughly! Pet fees or applied to your invoice.
• If there's a specific Southport beach you simply love, look for rentals that are either close by, or those that cater especially to your requirements.
• Proper accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for persons with a disability. Remember to confirm all necessary amenities are available before booking

More considerations:

• Review check in & check out procedures before traveling. Take a printed copy, and save the directions to your smartphone.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a fireplace, television set or washer/dryer. Contact your host. They are there to help! A brief text message can prevent lots of difficulties.
• Lock your rental while you are out. Keep your property safe!
• During arrival, note any issues with the property and immediately contact the owner. Record all coorespondence.
• Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking restrictions can make a stay more pleasurable. Be a good neighbor. You'll enhance your chance to make some new local friends, and resident neighbors are a great resource to find the best local scenic spots.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Residents can frequently help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to get the best seafood, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fishing?
• Re-check every room of the rental property to confirm that you've packed all of your belongings at departure. Check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden belongings. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Document the condition of the property at check-out. We recommend taking a video during your final walk-through.
• Did your family have a great vacation? Many rental managers make it easy for travelers to provide feedback. If your rental property and/or host was great, they would love to hear it. If anything was defective and they failed to address it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make it a point as part of your feedback.
