Tips and Tricks for getting the best vacation rental experience:

When to visit Ocean Isle Beach & When to book:

• In the Wilmington, NC area, The earlier your group can reserve a vacation home, the better your selection will be. The most desirable properties are reserved early. Booking your rental home six - twelve months before your vacation dates is recommended. Holiday gatherings are excellent times to plan and book your vacation rental.
• June, July, and August are the most expensive months in the Wilmington, NC area. To get the best rental for your budget, we strongly suggest reserving in Fall or Spring months. You'll enjoy lower rates, better selection, gorgeous weather and the absence of giant crowds at your favorite restaurants and activities. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, 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 and Christmas are great times to gather with loved ones at your favorite beach.
• Property management companies sometimes offer promotional rates for veterans. Check with your property manager to see if discounts are available for your family before you book.
• Property management companies typically offer customers an option to purchase trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which generally costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for days missed as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for specifics.
• Find a copy of your local Wilmington, NC visitors guide magazine upon arrival. If your rental doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local shops and fuel stations. In addition to great local stories, travel guide magazines have coupons for nearby tours and attractions.

Use filters to narrow your search:

• Start by selecting your trip dates and a spending budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and the bed configuration your group requires. Barefoot on the Beach has 5 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms.
• Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts & types is regularly accessible online. If they are not listed, contact the property management company before you book your rental. Remember that most property listings specify the max. guest capacity, which typically includes pull-out couches and bunk beds.
• If your group is traveling with pets, filter your search for a rental that allows animals. Ask for information on breed, size, and type restrictions. Some property managers charge additional pet fees.
• Visiting for a single event or attraction? Use a map search to browse nearby properties.
• Appropriate accessibility can make or break a vacation for guests with disabilities. Make certain to inquire about specialized equipment and wheel chair accessibility.

During your stay:

• Add the owner's information to your smartphone. Take a copy of arrival/departure procedures.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a hot tub, television set or thermostat. Contact your property manager. They are there to help! A brief phone call can prevent many issues.
• Keep the property locked while you are gone! Don't let burglars spoil your vacation.
• Document any issues with the rental during check in, and immediately e-mail them to the property manager. We specifically recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain time stamps that can be useful if damages are attributed to your stay.
• Respecting quiet hours and parking restrictions can make a stay significantly more pleasurable. Be a good neighbor. You will enhance your chance to make some new local friends, and resident neighbors are usually an excellent resource to find the best local attractions.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Locals can usually point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to order the best nachos, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for crabbing?
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before you drive away, take a walk through the property to confirm you've collected all personal belongings. Make sure to check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden items. Clean out the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Document the condition of the property at check-out. We recommend taking a video during your final walk-through.
• Did your family have a fantastic vacation? Many rental management companies make it easy for customers to provide reviews. If your rental property and/or property management company was wonderful, they would love to hear it. If anything was imperfect and they failed to correct it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make a note as part of your comments.
