Rental home tips and tricks:

Find your perfect rental home:

• June, July, and August are high season in Oak Island. To get the best value, change your family's Wrightsville Beach trip dates to the Spring or Fall shoulder seasons. May, September, and October offer warmer weather, less crowded beaches, and greatly reduced traffic.
• The sooner your group can book a rental home, the easier your search will be. The most desirable vacation rentals are reserved early. Booking your rental six to twelve months before your vacation is recommended. Holidays such as Christmas and Thanksgiving are excellent times to search for and book your rental.
• Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property owner if your group qualifies for a reduced rate.
• Property management companies often offer customers an option to add trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which normally costs 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed days as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for program terms and fees.
• Find a copy of your local Wrightsville Beach visitors guide magazine when you check-in. If your rental property doesn't have one, you can find them at local grocery stores and visitor centers. In addition to great local articles, visitor guide magazines have offers and deals for local tours and attractions.

Selecting and booking the best Wrightsville Beach vacation home:

• Select a designated group leader, choose your vacation dates, and select a max budget.
• Note the number bedrooms and the configuration your family needs. Newly renovated dog friendly beach cottage at Oak Island, with beach access! has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Specific information regarding bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is usually available online. If they are not listed, contact the host before you book the vacation property. Note that most property listings specify maximum guest capacity, which frequently includes sofa beds. You will need to work out what configuration is optimal for your vacation.
• Visiting for a specific event? If so, use a map search to find nearby rentals.
• Proper accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for persons with disabilities. Make certain to ask about wheel chair entry, pool lifts and specialized equipment needs.
• If your family is bringing pets, you will need a rental that allows animals. Request details on breed, size, and type restrictions. Note that some property managers charge additional pet fees.

More considerations for your visit:

• Review check in & check out procedures before traveling. Take a printed copy, and save the directions to your phone.
• To make certain that no damages are attributed to your family's stay, inspect for any problem areas during check in. Contact the rental manager immediately to document any pre-existing damages. If there is a dispute about legal responsibility later, having the recorded concerns and contact attempts will be helpful.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a garage door opener, elevator or kitchen appliance. Contact your property manager. They are there to help! A brief call prevents many issues.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like loud vacationers bothering your home life. Practice the golden rule for best judgement. Happy residents may even recommend great restaurants and scenic spots you would have not otherwise known about!
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Residents can often help. Who better to ask where to get the best seafood, have a great night out, or the best spots for BBQ?
• Protect the rental owner (and your stuff!) by keeping the rental locked up when you are out, just like you would at home.
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before departing, take a walk through the rental property to make sure you've collected all of your things. Re-check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden items. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Inspect the property a final time and look for damage. We recommend walking through with the property manager whenever you can. If the host isn't available, ensure that you take photographs of the property to record its condition at check-out.
• Leave a review! Property owners rely on good ratings to drive future reservations. They'll be much obliged for your feedback. Alternatively, if something wasn't right, other families will be thankful you shared your feedback and help them have the best future vacation. Remember to be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the manager could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded expeditiously to fix it.
