Our top Oak Island rental home booking tips and tricks:

How to get the best rental value:

• June, July, and August are the most expensive months in coastal NC. To book the best rental for your budget, we strongly suggest reserving in Spring or Fall. You'll benefit from lower rates, better selection, gorgeous weather and the absence of giant crowds at restaurants, beaches, and activities. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Wrightsville Beach vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday near the ocean? Thanksgiving and Christmas are great times to gather with loved ones at the beach.
• The sooner you can reserve a vacation home, the better your selection will be. The best vacation homes are reserved very early. Booking your vacation home up to twelve months before your travel dates is recommended. Holidays such as Christmas and Thanksgiving are excellent times to plan and reserve your rental property.
• Owners sometimes offer discounts for veterans and active duty military. Check with your host or property manager to see if special discounts are available for your family before you book.
• Management companies and individual rental owners often offer renters an option to buy vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which costs between 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed trip time as a result of medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as ensuing additional evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for more information.
• Find a copy of your local Wrightsville Beach area magazine when you check-in. If your rental home doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers. In addition to great local information, visitor guide magazines contain deals for nearby tours and attractions.

Selecting the perfect vacation home in Oak Island:

• To start, have your group select a vacation week and a max budget.
• Note the number bedrooms and what type of bedroom configuration your family requires. Oceanview 3BR\/2BA Duplex Located Less Than a 1 Minute Walk-Sleeps6 has 4 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our Wrightsville Beach vacation rental search.
• Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts is normally available online. If they are not listed, email or call the property management company before booking the vacation property. Note that most listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which often includes sofa beds.
• If there's a certain Wrightsville Beach destination you are enamored with, browse homes that are either near by, or those that cater to your desires.
• Appropriate accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for guests that require the use of a wheelchair. .
• Some rentals allow pets, but others don't. Acceptable types of dog or cat, size and breeds may be restricted, and additional costs may apply. Ask the owner about pet restrictions before booking.

Advice for a smooth stay:

• Get the owner's phone number and arrival/departure procedures for your .
• At Check-in, make note of any damages to the property and immediately alert the property manager. Keep records of all coorespondence.
• Property managers are available to help! Feel free to ask any questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Don't forget to respect your neighbors. Often, surrounding homes are filled by permanent residents. Respecting quiet hours and parking policies can make a stay significantly more pleasurable.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Locals can often help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to get the best seafood, have a great night out, or the best spots for BBQ?
• Ensure you protect the owner (and your stuff!) by locking the rental while you are out, just like you would at home.
• Don't leave anything behind! Before you drive away, take a walk through the rental property to make sure you've collected all belongings. Re-check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden items. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Inspect the rental a final time and look for damage. We recommend inspecting the property with the host whenever you can. If the host is not available, remember to take photographs of the property to record its condition.
• Did your group have a wonderful stay? Most vacation rental websites make it easy for guests to provide reviews. If your property and/or property manager was terrific, they will likely appreciate your kind words. If anything was defective 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.
