Tips and Tricks to get the very best rental experience:

How to get the best rental value:

• Summer months are high season in Oak Island. Booking in Spring or Fall is a good way to save on your vacation. Rental rates are lower, and you'll find a larger selection of suitable properties.
• In the Wilmington, NC area, The earlier your group can book a rental home, the easier your search will be. The most desirable rental homes are booked very early. Reserving your vacation property 6-12 months before your travel dates is recommended. Holiday gatherings are excellent times to search for and reserve your rental property.
• Some hosts and property managers offer discounts for active duty military and veterans. Make sure to check with your host or property manager to see if special discounts are available for your group.
• Property managers usually offer customers an option to purchase trip insurance. Trip insurance, which commonly will cost 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed vacation time as a result of medical-related issues or weather, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for additional information.
• Find a copy of your local Wilmington, NC visitors guide when you arrive at the rental property. 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 articles, visitor guide magazines have coupons for local tours, shops, and attractions.

Finding the best rental in Oak Island:

• Start by choosing potential vacation weeks and a max budget.
• Decide how many bedrooms and the configuration your family needs. Waterway Getaway at OKI has 5 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms.
• Precise information regarding bedrooms and bed counts & types is almost always accessible online. If they are not listed, reach out to the property owner before reserving the home. Note that most property listings specify the max. guest capacity, which typically includes sofa beds and bunks. You will need to establish which bed configuration is suitable for your vacation family.
• Are you visiting for a single event? If so, use a map search to locate nearby properties.
• Proper accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for the less-mobile. .
• If your group is traveling with pets, you will need a rental that allows animals. Make sure to ask for specifics on breed, size, and type requirements. Some property managers charge pet deposits and fees.

Additional considerations:

• Put the owner's information in your smartphone and wallet.
• During arrival, note any damages to the rental property and immediately contact the property manager. Keep records of all coorespondence.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a fireplace, television set or coffee maker. Contact your property manager. They are there to help! A brief telephone call can prevent quite a few issues.
• Be respectful. Frequently, adjacent homes are filled by permanent residents. Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking regulations is the right thing to do.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Residents can often help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to launch your kayaks, have a great night out, or the best spots for bird watching?
• Protect the rental owner (and your stuff!) by keeping the rental locked up when you are away, just like you would at home.
• Double-check every room of the rental property to confirm that you've packed all belongings at check-out. Check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden belongings. Clean out the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Inspect the rental a final time and scan for damages to contents or the property itself. We advise inspecting the property with the property manager whenever you can. If the property manager is not available, remember to take photographs of the rental to record its condition at check-out.
• Did your group have a excellent vacation? Many rental management companies make it easy for vacationers to provide reviews. If your property and/or host was fantastic, they always love to hear your praise. If anything was out of order and they failed to correct it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make it a point as part of your feedback.
