Oak Island vacation rental booking tips and tricks:

Finding the best rental home value:

• The sooner you can book a vacation rental, the better your selection will be. The best vacation homes are reserved early. Reserving your vacation rental six to twelve months before your vacation is recommended. Holiday gatherings are excellent times to plan and reserve your vacation rental.
• To find the best value, try changing your vacation to the Spring or Fall shoulder seasons. May, September, and October offer warm temperatures, fewer crowds, and reduced traffic. Many vacationers use this method to find larger homes within budget, or to book a beach front vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable during the Summer.
• Some property management companies offer discounts for veterans and active duty military. Ask your property manager if special offers are available for your group before you book.
• Management companies and individual rental owners typically offer guests an option to purchase trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which usually will 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 issues or weather, as well as evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance can be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for program terms and fees.
• Look for your local visitors guide when you arrive at the rental property. If your rental doesn't have one, you can find them at local grocery stores and visitor centers. In addition to great local articles, visitors guides contain deals for nearby tours, shops, and attractions.

How to choose the best rental home in the Southport area:

• To start, have your group select date ranges and a budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and the bed configuration your family requires. 5BR\/3.5BA Home - 2nd Row, Pool, Tiki Bar, Ocean Views, Beach, Sleeps 13 has 6 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our search.
• Specific information about bedrooms and bed types is generally accessible on booking pages. If they are not listed, reach out to the property owner before you reserve the vacation property. Remember that most property listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which typically includes sofa beds and bunks. You'll need to work out what bed configuration is optimal for your group.
• Some rentals allow pets, and some do not. Acceptable types of family pet, weight and breeds may be restricted, and added costs may apply. Ask the host about your furry family members before booking.
• Are you visiting for a specific attraction? Try a map search to locate nearby properties.
• Appropriate accessibility can make or break a vacation for the less-mobile. Remember to confirm all required amenities are available before reserving a rental

More considerations for your visit:

• Review check in & check out procedures before leaving home. Take a printed copy, and add a note with the instructions to your smartphone.
• Property managers are great sources of help! Don't be shy to ask any questions during your stay.
• Keep your rental home locked while you are gone! Don't let thieves spoil your family vacation.
• To ensure that damages are not linked to your visit, make note of any problem areas during check in. message the rental manager right away to relay any damages. If there is a dispute, having a record of issues and contact attempts will be very helpful.
• Respect the neighborhood. Often times, surrounding homes are occupied by permanent residents. Respecting noise limits and parking rules reduces conflict and allows everyone to enjoy their day.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Neighbors can usually help. Who better to ask where to get the best seafood, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fishing?
• Don't leave anything behind! Before you drive away, take a walk through the rental to reconfirm you've collected everything. Make sure to check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden treasure. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• After your trip, leave a review! Hosts rely on great ratings to stimulate new reservations. They'll be grateful for your review. Alternatively, if something went awry, other vacationers will be thankful you shared your experience find their best vacation home. Remember to be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the manager could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded expeditiously to fix it.
