What is Pelican Sol? Pelican Sol is a freshly refreshed beach getaway that embodies the spirit of Oak Island. Quietly located in the heart of Oak Island, Pelican Sol sits directly on the Intracoastal tidal marsh and a mere three hundred steps from Long Beach and the Atlantic Ocean. Ocean Crest pier is your backdrop as you find your ideal sand sanctuary on the powdery beach. Imagine yourself sitting on one of the cavernous decks appreciating the ocean breeze as you listen to the surf roll in or experience striking vistas of the marsh and its wild life. At Pelican Sol, you can wake up in the Coral Reef Room and greet the morning as the sun bathes the island in a golden hello. Or, you can watch the sun slip below the horizon to a kaleidoscope of tropical hues from the Tidal Marsh Room. In the Captain’s Quarters, you can let your imagination run wild as the nautical ambience whisks you away to visions of ships and scalawags. When you wind down your day of fun in the sun, a entirely enclosed outdoor shower can wash away the salt and sand, but never the memories. And when the stars come out, let the essence of the island recharge your soul under the canopy of a coastal nighttime sky. We know you will appreciate Pelican Sol as much as we do! Cheers!!!

Our top Rental property booking tips:

When to book & When to go:

• Book your rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules generally open twelve months in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many families reserve their Summer vacations during Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years Eve get-togethers. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Summer is the most expensive season in the Wilmington, NC area. To get the best value, consider changing your group's trip dates to the Spring or Fall seasons. May, September, and October offer warm temperatures, fewer crowds, and reduced traffic. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, or to book an oceanfront vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable during the Summer. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Wilmington, NC vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation near the ocean? Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with family and friends at your favorite beach.
• Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property manager if your family qualifies for a discount.
• Property managers usually offer guests an option to buy vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which commonly will cost anywhere between 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed trip time as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as ensuing additional evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for details.
• Find a copy of your local visitors guide upon arrival. If your rental home doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local grocery stores and visitor centers. In addition to great local information, visitors guides have coupons for local restaurants, attractions, and tours.

Use filters to search efficiently:

• Select your vacation week and maximum budget.
• Decide how many bedrooms and what type of bedroom configuration your family requires. Charming 3-bedroom waterfront house in OKI just steps from public beach access has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Precise details about bedrooms and bed types is often available on booking pages. If they are not listed, call the property management company before you book your home. Remember that most properties list the max. guest capacity, which typically includes pull-out couches and bunk beds.
• Some rental properties allow pets, but some don't. Allowable types of family pet, size and breeds may be restricted, and added charges may apply. Ask your host about allowable pet guidelines before booking.
• Is your family looking for particular amenities? Most rental websites include search filters for amenities. Amenity filters help you quickly remove less-optimal properties.
• Suitable accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for persons with disabilities. Confirm all required amenities are available and included before booking.

More considerations:

• Add the host's contact info to your smartphone. Print and take a copy of check in/check out procedures.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a fireplace, A/V setup or coffee maker. Contact your host. They are there to help! A brief text message prevents lots of concerns.
• Lock your vacation home while you are out and about. Keep your property safe!
• Make a record of any damages to the property during check in, and immediately e-mail them to the host. We especially recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain time stamps that can be beneficial if damages are assessed.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like unpleasant vacationers disrupting your peace. Use the golden rule for best judgement. Happy residents may even recommend great restaurants and scenic spots you would have never otherwise known about!
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Locals can frequently help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to enjoy a steak with a view, have a great night out, or the best spots for bird watching?
• On check-out day, take a final walk-through to make sure you didn't leave anything behind. Re-check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden belongings. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Did your group have a wonderful vacation? Most vacation rental websites make it easy for guests to provide comments. If your rental and/or property management company was great, they always love to hear your praise. If anything was imperfect and they failed to correct it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make it a point as part of your comments.
