How to find the best Oak Island vacation home experience:

Money saving strategies:

• Summertime is high season in Oak Island. Reserving a rental home in Spring or Fall is one of our best tips for saving money on your vacation home. Rental rates are lower, and you'll find a larger selection of acceptable homes. Many vacationers use this method to find larger homes within budget, or to reserve an oceanfront rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during the high season.
• Book your rental as early as possible. Rental schedules often open 12 months in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many families book their Summer vacations during Christmas and Thanksgiving get-togethers. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property owner or host if your vacationing group qualifies for a price reduction.
• Property managers typically offer their guests an option to purchase trip insurance. Trip insurance, which normally costs 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed vacation time as a result of medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as ensuing additional evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance might be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for details.
• Many property management companies and vacation rental houses supply Wilmington, NC area visitors guide magazines which will include special deals, either offered directly by local businesses, or by way of a relationship between the management company and the business itself. You can also find Wilmington, NC visitors guide and coupon books at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers.

Planning and choosing your Wilmington, NC rental:

• Start by having your family commit to vacation dates and a spending budget.
• Note the number bedrooms and what type of bedroom configuration your group needs. The Queen B has 5 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed types is regularly accessible online. Otherwise, contact the property owner before you book the vacation home. Remember that most properties list maximum guest capacity, which oftentimes includes sofa beds.
• If there's an individual Wilmington, NC destination you love, keep an eye out for rentals that are either close by, or those that cater especially to your desires.
• Proper accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for persons with a disability. Make certain to ask about specialized equipment and wheel chair accessibility.
• If your family is traveling with pets, you'll need to search for a pet-friendly rental. Ask for details on breed, size, and type requirements. Be aware that some property owners charge additional pet fees.

Considerations for your stay:

• Take a copy of the owner's phone number and entry/exit procedures for your rental property.
• At Check-in, make note of any damages to the property and immediately contact the owner. Record all coorespondence.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a hot tub, television set or WIFI setup. Contact your property manager. They are there to help! A brief telephone call can prevent quite a few problems.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like disagreeable visitors bothering your peaceful neighborhood. Use the golden rule for best judgement. If they like you, locals might even recommend great restaurants and places you would've never otherwise known about!
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Local residents can typically help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to launch your kayaks, have a great night out, or the best spots for fine dining?
• Ensure you protect the property owner (and your things!) by locking the rental when you are out, just like you would at home.
• Don't leave anything behind! Before departing, walk through the property to make sure you've collected all personal items. Check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden belongings. Clean 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.
• Remember to leave feedback! Property owners rely on great feedback to stimulate future reservations. They'll be thankful for your review. Alternatively, if something wasn't right, other vacationers will be thankful you shared your feedback and help them have the best future vacation. Be fair with your review. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the owner had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded expeditiously to solve it.
