Strategies to get the optimal rental experience:

Getting the most from your spending budget:

• The sooner you can reserve a vacation home, the easier your search will be. The most desirable vacation rentals are reserved very early. Reserving your vacation rental 6-12 months before your vacation is recommended. Winter holidays are excellent times to search for and reserve your vacation rental.
• June, July, and August are the most expensive months along the coast of NC. Reserve your vacation in the Fall or Spring shoulder seasons to get the benefit of beautiful weather while saving money and avoiding crowds.
• Some hosts offer discounts for veterans. Remember to ask your host or property manager if discounts are available for your family.
• Booking websites typically offer renters an option to buy trip insurance. Trip insurance, which costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed time as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as ensuing additional evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel stay or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance can be a a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for more information.
• Look for your local Wilmington, NC area magazine upon checking in. If your rental doesn't have one, you can find them at local shops and fuel stations. In addition to great local articles, visitor guides have coupons for nearby accommodations, tours and attractions.

How to select the perfect vacation rental in Oak Island:

• Start by having your family agree to date ranges and a budget.
• Note the number beds and the bed configuration your group requires. NEW! Ultimate Luxury w/ Pool, Views, Elevator & More. The Crooked Palm has 5 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed types is generally available on booking pages. Otherwise, email the property management company before booking the vacation home. Remember that most properties list the max. guest capacity, which oftentimes includes pull-out couches and bunk beds. You will need to establish what is suitable for your trip.
• Some properties allow pets, and others don't. Acceptable types of pet, weight and breeds may be restricted, and additional costs may apply. Ask the owner about your furry family members before booking.
• If there's a specific Wilmington, NC destination you crave, keep an eye out for rentals that are either close by, or those that cater to your needs.
• Suitable accessibility can make or break a vacation for guests with disabilities. Confirm all required amenities are available before booking.

Additional considerations:

• We recommend storing the manager's information in your smartphone.
• Hosts are great sources of help! Feel free to ask any questions during your stay.
• Protect the owner (and your things!) by keeping the rental locked up when you are away, just like you would back home.
• To ensure that damages aren't attributed to your family's stay, note any problem areas upon check in. Make contact with the rental manager right away to report any pre-existing damages. If there is a dispute about who is responsible, having a record of concerns and contact attempts will be useful.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like troublesome vacationers bothering your peaceful home. Practice the golden rule for best judgement. If they like you, locals might even recommend great beaches and attractions you would've not otherwise known about!
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Local residents can usually point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to enjoy a steak with a view, have a great night out, or the best spots for fishing?
• Upon check-out, take a walk-through to make sure you did not forget anything. Remember to check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden treasure. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Go through the property one final time and scan for damages to contents or the property itself. We suggest inspecting the property with the host whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the manager is not available, remember to take pictures of the rental to record its condition at check-out.
• Remember to leave a review! Hosts rely on great feedback to inspire new reservations. They'll be thankful for your feedback. Alternatively, if something went awry, other families will be thankful you shared your feedback find their best vacation rental. Be fair with your review. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the property manager could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded quickly to fix it.
