Strategies for getting the perfect Oak Island vacation home experience:

When to go & When to reserve a rental home:

• Summer is high season in Oak Island. To find the best value, consider changing your family's Wrightsville Beach vacation to the Spring or Fall months. May, September, and October offer warm weather, fewer crowds, and greatly reduced traffic.
• Reserve your vacation rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules usually become available 12 months in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many groups book their Summer vacations during Thanksgiving and Christmas get-togethers. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Owners sometimes offer promotional rates for veterans. Remember to ask your host or property manager if discounts are available for your family before you book.
• Booking websites usually offer guests an option to purchase vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which usually will cost you 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for days missed as a result of medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unanticipated hotel or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance can be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for details.
• Look for your local Wrightsville Beach area magazine upon arrival. If your rental property doesn't have one, you can find them at local shops and fuel stations. In addition to great local stories, travel guide magazines contain deals for local restaurants, attractions, and tours.

Selecting and booking the perfect Wrightsville Beach rental:

• Start by choosing the best vacation week and a maximum budget.
• Note the number beds and the configuration your group requires. 4BR\/3BA Home - 2nd Row, Ocean Views, Steps to Beach, Pool w\/ Heating, Sleeps 10 has 5 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our vacation rental search.
• Precise information regarding bedrooms and bed types is usually accessible on booking websites. If not, reach out to the property owner before you book the vacation property. Note that most listings specify the max. guest capacity, which usually includes sofa beds and bunks.
• If there's an individual Wrightsville Beach beach you crave, search for homes that are either near by, or those that cater especially to your requirements.
• Suitable accessibility can make or break a vacation for those with limited mobility. .
• If your group is bringing pets, you must reserve a pet-friendly vacation rental. Ask for information on breed, weight, and type requirements. Often, hosts charge pet deposits and fees.

Additional considerations:

• Add the owner's contact info to your phone. Understand and take a copy of arrival/departure procedures.
• Upon arrival, note any damages to the rental property and immediately alert the property manager. Keep records of all coorespondence.
• Property managers are there to help! Feel free to ask any questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like disagreeable visitors bothering your peaceful neighborhood. Use the golden rule for best judgement. Happy residents may even recommend great local food and places you would have not otherwise known about!
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Locals can typically point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to go for the best drinks, have a great night out, or the best spots for fishing?
• Lock your rental home while you're out. Protect the owner's property and your things!
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before departing, walk through the rental property to reconfirm you've collected all belongings. Make sure to check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden items. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Inspect the rental one final time and keep an eye out for damages to contents or the property itself. We suggest walking through with the property manager whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the manager isn't available, remember to take photographs of the rental to record its condition.
• Did your group have a great time? Most vacation rental websites make it easy for vacationers to provide comments. If your rental property and/or host was great, they would love to hear about it. If anything was wrong and they failed to correct it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make a note as part of your review.
