Booking the best Oak Island vacation property experience:

Sticking to your rental budget:

• Reserve your vacation home as soon as possible. Rental schedules often open twelve months in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many families reserve their Summer vacations during holiday gatherings. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Summer months are high season in Oak Island. Booking in the Fall or Spring shoulder seasons is our best tip for saving money on your vacation rental. Rental rates are lower, and you'll find a better selection of suitable homes. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, or to book an oceanfront vacation rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during the Summer.
• Some hosts and property managers offer discounts for veterans and active duty military. Ask your host or property manager if rate reductions are available for your family before you book.
• Property management companies typically offer renters an option to buy vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which normally costs between 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed vacation time as a result of medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance can be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for specifics.
• Find a copy of your local Southport visitors guide upon checking in. If your rental home doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers. In addition to great local articles, visitors guides contain money saving offers on nearby shops and restaurants.

Planning, picking, and booking a perfectvacation home:

• First, have your group select dates and a budget.
• Note the number bedrooms and the bed configuration your group needs. Happier Than a Byrd with a French Fry: West Beach Home with Ocean Views and Easy has 5 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is almost always accessible on booking websites. If they are not listed, reach out to the host before you book your rental. Remember that most property listings specify the max. guest capacity, which frequently includes sofa beds and bunks. You will need to establish what is best for your vacation group.
• Some rental properties allow pets, but some do not. Allowable types of family pet, size and breeds may be restricted, and added costs may apply. Ask the property manager about pets before booking.
• Are you visiting for a single attraction? Try a map search to find nearby rentals.
• Suitable accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for those with limited mobility. Confirm all required amenities are available before booking.

More considerations for your visit:

• Get the owner's phone number and check in/check out procedures for your rental home.
• Property managers are available to help! Don't be shy to ask questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Protect the rental owner (and your stuff!) by keeping the rental locked up while you are gone, just like you would at home.
• To make certain that no damages are linked to your family's visit, inspect the rental for any problem areas during arrival. Contact the host immediately to record your findings. If there is a dispute, having the recorded concerns and contact attempts will be helpful.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like disagreeable visitors bothering your home life. Employ the golden rule for best judgement. If they like you, locals might even recommend great local food and places you would have not otherwise known!
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Local residents can frequently help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to see a beautiful sunrise or sunset, have a great night out, or the best spots for fine dining?
• Just before checking out, complete a final walk-through to make sure you haven't forget any personal items. Remember to check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden treasure. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Inspect the rental a final time and scan for damage. We recommend inspecting the property with the host whenever you can. If the host isn't available, remember to take video and pictures of the rental to record its condition.
• Did your group have a terrific stay? Many rental managers make it easy for clients to provide feedback. If your rental and/or property management company was great, they would love to hear it. If anything was inoperable and they failed to fix it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make it a point as part of your comments.
