Finding the best rental experience:

When to visit & When to book:

• Summer is high season in Oak Island. To get the best value, consider shifting your group's vacation week to the Spring or Fall months. May, September, and even October offer warm temperatures, fewer crowds, and reduced traffic. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Cape Fear area vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation near the ocean? Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with family and friends at your favorite beach.
• Book your vacation home as soon as possible. Rental schedules usually open 12 months in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many families reserve their Summer vacations during Winter holiday get-togethers. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Hosts sometimes offer special rates for veterans. Ask your property manager if special offers are available for your family before you book.
• Property management companies frequently offer guests an option to add vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which usually costs between 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed time as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance can be a a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for additional information.
• Many property management companies supply Cape Fear area area travel guide magazines which include special deals, either offered directly by local companies, or by way of a relationship between the property management company and the business itself. You can also find Cape Fear area visitors guide and coupon books at local gas stations and shopping centers.

How to pick the best rental in the Cape Fear area area:

• To start, have your family agree to dates and a maximum budget.
• Determine how many beds and the bed configuration your family requires. Ocean Front - Amazing Ocean Views - Dog Friendly Classic Beach Home, Sleeps 8 has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Precise details about bedrooms and bed counts is normally accessible on booking pages. If you don't see them listed, email the property manager before reserving your rental. Note that most properties list maximum guest capacity, which typically includes sofa beds and bunks. You'll need to determine what is best for your vacation group.
• Looking for particular amenities? Most rental search websites include amenity lists and search filters.
• Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for those with limited mobility. Confirm all necessary amenities are included before reserving a rental.
• Some rentals allow pets, and others do not. Acceptable types of family pet, weight and breeds may be restricted, and added charges may apply. Ask the owner about allowable pet guidelines before booking.

Additional considerations:

• Add the host's information to your smartphone. Print and take a copy of check in/check out procedures.
• To make certain that damages aren't attributed to your family's visit, inspect for any problem areas during check in. Speak to the host right away to relay your findings. If there is a dispute, having a record of issues and contact attempts will be helpful.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a fireplace, stereo or thermostat. Contact your owner. They are there to help! A brief phone call prevents a lot of problems.
• Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking policies can make a stay significantly more pleasurable. Be a good neighbor. You will enhance your chance to make some new local friends, and resident neighbors are a great source for finding the best local beaches and restaurants.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Locals can typically help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to enjoy a steak with a view, have a great night out, or the best spots for fine dining?
• Lock your rental while you're out and about. Protect the owner's property and your things!
• Re-check the rental property to confirm that you've packed all of your family's items on check-out day. Remember to check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden items. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Go through the property one final time and scan for damages to contents or the property itself. We advise inspecting the property with the property manager whenever possible. If the property manager is not available, ensure that you take photos of the rental to record its condition at check-out.
• Remember to leave feedback! Hosts rely on great feedback to drive more reservations. They'll be thankful for your feedback. Alternatively, if something wasn't as described, other vacationing families will will be grateful for your review find their best vacation rental. Be fair with your review. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the property manager had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded quickly to remedy it.
