Oak Island rental home booking tips:

How to get the best rental value:

• Summertime is high season in the Wrightsville Beach area. To get the most suitable rental home for your budget, we suggest booking in the Fall or Spring. You'll benefit from lower rates, better selection, warm weather and the absence of large crowds at your favorite restaurants and activities.
• Reserve your vacation home as soon as possible. Rental schedules generally open a year in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many groups reserve their Summer rental homes during Thanksgiving and Christmas get-togethers. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Some hosts offer promotional rates for veterans. Ask your host or property manager if discounts are available for your family.
• Management companies and individual rental owners frequently offer customers an option to add vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed time as a result of medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance can be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for additional information.
• Often, property management companies and vacation rental houses supply Wrightsville Beach area travel guide magazines which will include special deals, either offered directly by local companies, or by way of a relationship between the management company and the business itself. You can also find Wrightsville Beach visitors guide and coupon books at local shops and grocery stores.

How to choose the best vacation rental in Oak Island:

• First and foremost, have your family agree to trip dates and a budget.
• Note the number beds and the bed configuration your family requires. 4 Bedroom 2 Bath House, 2nd Row, Ocean Views, Dog Friendly, Sleeps 8 has 5 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our vacation rental search.
• Precise information regarding bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is often available online. If not, reach out to the property management company before you book your home. Remember that most properties list maximum guest capacity, which usually includes pull-out couches. You'll need to work out what is optimal for your vacation group.
• Are you visiting for a specific attraction? Use a map search to locate nearby properties.
• Suitable accessibility can make or break a vacation for persons with disabilities. Remember to confirm all required amenities are available before booking
• Do your family pets travel with you? Many vacation homes allow animals, but guidelines and restrictions apply. Allowable pet type, breed, and size are often limited. Ask your host before booking, and study your agreement! Pet fees or charges might be applied to your contract.

Some things to know before you go:

• Be sure you get the host's contact number and check in/check out procedures for your . Put the host's contact information in your smartphone.
• To make certain that damages aren't attributed to your family's stay, make a record of any problem areas during arrival. Call the rental manager immediately to record your findings. If there is a dispute about legal responsibility later, having the recorded problems and contact attempts will be valuable.
• Hosts are there to help! Feel free to ask questions during your stay.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like obnoxious visitors bothering your peaceful home. Employ the golden rule for common sense. Happy residents may even recommend great restaurants and places you would've not otherwise known about!
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Locals can typically point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to take kids for a treat, have a great night out, or the best spots for BBQ?
• Ensure you protect the rental owner (and your stuff!) by locking and securing the home while you are away, just like you would back home.
• Don't leave anything behind! Before you drive away, take a walk through the rental to make sure you've collected all belongings. Re-check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden treasure. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Document the condition of the property at check-out. We recommend taking a video during your final walk-through.
• Did your group have a fantastic vacation? Many rental management companies make it easy for guests to provide reviews. If your rental property and/or property manager was terrific, they always love to hear your praise. If anything was amiss and they failed to correct it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make it a point as part of your feedback.
