Our top Oak Island vacation rental home tips and tricks:

Sticking to a spending budget:

• Book your vacation rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules often become available twelve months in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many groups reserve their Summer rental homes during Christmas and Thanksgiving get-togethers. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Summer is high season in Oak Island. Book your rental in Spring or Fall to get the benefit of gorgeous weather while saving money and avoiding crowds. Many vacationers use this method to find larger homes within budget, or to reserve an oceanfront vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during the Summer.
• Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property owner whether your group qualifies for a special promotion or discount.
• Booking websites typically offer guests an option to obtain trip insurance. Trip insurance, which usually will cost you anywhere between 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed days as a result of medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance might be a a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for specifics.
• Often, property management companies supply Wilmington, NC area visitors guides which will include coupons, either offered independently by local companies, or by way of a partnership between the property management company and the business itself. You can also find Wilmington, NC visitors guide and coupon books at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers.

How to choose and book a perfect Wilmington, NC vacation home:

• Start by choosing a vacation week and a spending budget.
• Decide how many beds and the configuration you need. 4BR\/2BA Home, Oceanfront, Sleeps 12 has 5 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Precise information regarding bedrooms and bed types is generally accessible on booking pages. If they are not listed, call the property management company before reserving the rental. Note that most listings specify maximum guest capacity, which often includes pull-out couches.
• If your family is traveling with pets, filter your search for a property that allows animals. Ask for details on breed, size, and type restrictions. Some property owners charge additional pet fees.
• Are you visiting for a single event or attraction? Use a map search to find nearby properties.
• Appropriate accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for persons with disabilities. Make certain to inquire about specialized equipment and wheel chair accessibility.

Some things to know before you go:

• Take a copy of the host's contact number and arrival/departure procedures for your rental. We recommend storing the host's contact information in your smartphone.
• Hosts are there to help! Feel free to ask any questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Keep your rental home locked while you are away! Don't let thieves spoil your family vacation.
• To make sure no damages are attributed to your visit, inspect the rental for any problem areas during check in. message the rental manager immediately to document any pre-existing damages. If there is a dispute about who is responsible, having the recorded issues and contact attempts will be useful.
• Be respectful. Frequently, nearby homes are occupied by local residents. Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking rules can make a stay significantly more pleasurable.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Neighbors can usually help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to book the best tours, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fine dining?
• Double-check the rental property to make sure that you've packed all of your family's items at departure. Check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden items. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Inspect the property one final time and look for any damage. We recommend walking through with the property manager whenever possible. If the manager is not available, take video of the property to record its condition at check-out.
• Did your family have a terrific time? Most vacation rental websites make it easy for guests to provide reviews. If your rental property and/or host was great, they would love to hear it. If anything was wrong and they failed to fix 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.
