How to find the best vacation home experience:

When to go & When to book:

• In the Wrightsville Beach area, The earlier you can book a rental home, the better your selection will be. The best rental homes are reserved very early. Booking your rental six to twelve months before your travel dates is recommended. Christmas, Thanksgiving and New Years Eve are excellent times to search for and book your vacation rental.
• Summertime is the most expensive season in coastal NC. To find the best value, try changing your vacation week to the Spring or Fall shoulder seasons. May, September, and October offer warm temperatures, , and greatly reduced traffic. Many vacationers use this method to find larger homes within budget, or to book an oceanfront vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during the Summer months. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Wrightsville Beach vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation on the coast? Thanksgiving and Christmas are great times to gather with friends and family at your favorite beach.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property owner if your vacationing group qualifies for a special promotion or discount.
• Management companies and individual rental owners often offer their guests an option to buy vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which normally costs between 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed days as a result of medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance can be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for details.
• Look for your local Wrightsville Beach area magazine when you arrive at the rental property. If your rental home doesn't have one, you can find them at local grocery stores and visitor centers. In addition to great local stories, visitors guide magazines contain discounts for nearby attractions, tours, restaurants, and shops.

Choosing the perfect rental in Oak Island:

• To start, have your group choose a vacation week and a budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and the bed configuration your group needs. 4BR\/3BA 2nd Row Home, Ocean View, Sleeps 10 has 5 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our Wrightsville Beach rentals search.
• Specific information regarding bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is commonly available online. Otherwise, reach out to the property management company before you book your rental. Note that most listings specify the max. guest capacity, which often includes sofa beds. You'll need to establish what is optimal for your vacation family.
• If your family is traveling with pets, you must reserve a pet-friendly rental. Request details on breed, size, and type requirements. Often, property managers require additional pet deposits and fees.
• Visiting for a specific attraction? If so, use a map search to browse nearby properties.
• Suitable accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for persons with disabilities. Confirm all required amenities are available before booking.

More tips for your stay:

• Add the owner's contact information to your smartphone. Print and take a copy of arrival/departure procedures.
• Hosts are great sources of help! Don't be shy to ask any questions during your stay.
• Lock your rental home while you are away. Keep your property safe!
• To make sure that damages aren't linked to your family's stay, make a record of any problem areas upon check in. Get in touch with the property manager right away to report any issues.

• Don't forget to respect your neighbors. Often times, adjacent homes are occupied by permanent residents. Respecting noise limits and parking policies reduces conflict and allows everyone to enjoy their day.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Local residents can usually help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to take kids for a treat, have a great night out, or the best spots for bird watching?
• Upon check-out, take a walk-through to confirm you did not forget anything. Remember to check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden items. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Please make sure to walk through the property a final time and scan for damage. We recommend walking through with the host whenever you can. If the property manager isn't available, ensure that you take photos of the property to record its condition.
• Leave feedback! Hosts rely on great ratings to compel new reservations. They'll be much obliged for your feedback. Alternatively, if something wasn't right, other families will will be grateful for your review and help them have the best future vacation. Please be fair with your feedback If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the host could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded reasonably to remedy it.
