Our top Rental property booking tips and tricks:

Money saving strategies:

• Summer months are the most expensive season in the Wrightsville Beach area. Book your Wrightsville Beach vacation home in Spring or Fall to enjoy gorgeous weather while saving money and avoiding crowds. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Wrightsville Beach vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday on the coast? Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with family and friends at the beach.
• Reserve your vacation home as early as possible. Rental schedules often open a year in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many families book their Summer rental homes during Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years Eve get-togethers. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Some property management companies offer promotional rates for active duty military and veterans. Check with your property manager to see if rate reductions are available for your group.
• Booking websites often offer their guests an option to buy trip insurance. Trip insurance, which normally will cost 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed trip time as a result of medical-related issues or weather, as well as ensuing additional evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance can be a a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for program terms and fees.
• Many property management companies supply Wrightsville Beach area travel guides which will include special offers, either offered directly by local companies, or through a relationship with the management company and the business itself. You can also find visitors guide and coupon books at local gas stations and shopping centers.

How to select the perfect rental home in Oak Island:

• To start, have your group commit to dates and a maximum budget.
• Note the number beds and the bed configuration your family requires. Everything to GRAB AND GO to the beach! Bikes, chairs, towels, Shibumi, cooler.. has 1 bedrooms and 1 bathrooms.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed types is generally available online. If not, call the host before you reserve the property. Note that most listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which often includes pull-out couches.
• If there's a particular Wrightsville Beach attraction you crave, keep an eye out for rentals that are either nearby, or those that cater especially to your desires.
• Appropriate accessibility can make or break a vacation for persons with disabilities. Confirm all required amenities are included before booking
• Some rentals allow pets, and others do not. Allowable types of pet, weight and breeds may be restricted, and added charges may apply. Ask the property management company about allowable pet guidelines before booking.

Have a great stay:

• Add the host's phone number to your smartphone. Take a copy of check in/check out procedures.
• Note any issues with the property upon arrival, and immediately contact the host. We especially recommend e-mails and text messages, as they usually contain built-in time stamps that are useful if damages are assessed.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a fireplace, intercom or washer/dryer. Contact your host. They are there to help! A brief phone call can prevent lots of problems.
• Be respectful of your neighbors. Frequently, surrounding homes are filled by local residents. Respecting noise limits and parking regulations reduces conflict and allows everyone to enjoy their day.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Neighbors can usually help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to book the best tours, have a great night out, or the best spots for bird watching?
• Lock your rental home while you're out. Protect your property!
• Upon check-out, take a walk-through to make sure you haven't leave anything behind. Re-check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden items. Clean out the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Go through the property one final time and look for damage. We advise inspecting the property with the host whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the host isn't available, remember to take photos and video of the rental to record its condition.
• Did your family have a great stay? Most rental home management companies make it easy for travelers to provide comments. If your rental and/or property management company was fantastic, they will likely appreciate your kind words. If anything was out of order and they failed to correct it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make a note as part of your comments.
