Finding the best Oak Island vacation rental experience:

Get the best rental value:

• Book your Wilmington, NC rental property in Fall or Spring to get the benefit of beautiful weather while saving money and avoiding crowded roads, restaurants, and activities. Many vacationers use this strategy to find larger homes within budget, or to reserve a beach front vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during June, July, and August. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Wilmington, NC vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday on the coast? Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with friends and family at the beach.
• Book your vacation rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules often become available 12 months in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many groups book their Summer rental homes during Christmas and Thanksgiving gatherings. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Owners sometimes offer promotional rates for active duty military and veterans. Make sure to check with your property manager to see if special discounts are available for your group before you book.
• Property management companies often offer their guests an option to add vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which normally will cost you anywhere between 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed trip time as a result of medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance can be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for details.
• Look for your local Wilmington, NC visitors guide when you check-in. If your rental doesn't have one, you can find them at local shops and fuel stations. In addition to great local articles, travel guides contain coupons for local tours, shops, and attractions.

How to choose the perfect vacation home in Oak Island:

• Start by choosing potential vacation weeks and a spending budget.
• Note the number bedrooms and the configuration your group needs. 4BR 2BA House-Oceanfront; Ocean, ICW & Lighthouse Views; Sleeps 9 has 4 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our rentals search.
• Specific information about bedrooms and bed types is generally accessible on booking pages. Otherwise, call the host before you book your rental. Note that most listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which typically includes pull-out couches and bunk beds. You will need to determine what is right for your group.
• If there's an individual Wilmington, NC beach you long to visit, browse rentals that are either nearby, or those that cater especially to your needs.
• Proper accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for persons with a disability. Confirm all required amenities are available and included before booking.
• Some rentals allow pets, but some do not. Acceptable types of pet, weight and breeds may be restricted, and additional fees may apply. Ask the property management company about allowable pet guidelines before booking.

During your stay:

• Review check in & check out procedures before leaving home. Save the instructions to your phone, and take a printed backup.
• Upon arrival, document any issues with the property and immediately contact the property manager. Record all coorespondence.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a garage door opener, A/V setup or WIFI setup. Contact your owner. They are there to help! A brief call can prevent quite a few problems.
• Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking regulations can make a stay significantly more pleasurable. You'll increase your chance to make some new local friends, and resident neighbors are an incredible resource to find the best local beaches and hangouts.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Neighbors can often help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to find the best bike paths, have a great night out, or the best spots for shopping?
• Lock your rental property while you are away! Don't let burglars ruin your trip.
• Re-check every room of the rental property to confirm that you've packed all belongings at departure. Check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden items. 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.
• Leave a review! Property managers rely on good reviews to stimulate future reservations. They'll be thankful for your review. Alternatively, if something wasn't as described, other vacationers will be thankful you shared your review and help them have the best future vacation. Please be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the host could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded reasonably to fix it.
