Rental home booking tips and tricks:

When to visit Oak Island & When to book:

• Book your vacation rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules often become available a year in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many groups book their Summer vacation rentals during Winter holiday get-togethers. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Summertime is the most expensive season in Oak Island. Book your Wrightsville Beach rental home in the Fall or Spring shoulder seasons to enjoy warm weather while saving money and avoiding crowds.
• Owners sometimes offer discounts for veterans. Remember to ask your property manager if special discounts are available for your family before you book.
• Booking websites usually offer customers an option to buy trip insurance. Trip insurance, which normally costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed days as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance can be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for details.
• Often, property management companies supply Wrightsville Beach area visitor guides which include special offers, either offered independently by local businesses, or through a relationship with the rental management company and the business itself. You can also find Wrightsville Beach visitors guide and coupon books at local gas stations and shopping centers.

Use filters to narrow your rental search:

• First, have your family agree to the best dates and a max budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and the configuration you need. Shellease Cottage-\n4 minute walk to the beach!\nGolf Cart available! has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our rental home search.
• Specific information about bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is commonly available online. If they are not listed, call the property management company before you reserve the vacation home. Remember that most properties list the max. guest capacity, which often includes pull out couches in living rooms.
• Are you bringing the family pet? Many vacation homes allow animals, but guidelines and restrictions apply. Type of pet, size and breeds may be limited. Remember to ask the property manager before booking, and study your agreement thoroughly! Extra fees or might be applied to your contract.
• If there's a specific Wrightsville Beach attraction you long to visit, look for properties that are either close by, or those that cater to your desires.

• Double-check every room of the rental property to confirm that you've packed all of your family's items on check-out day. Check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden items. Clean out the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
