Our family thoroughly appreciated our stay at Family Tides Too! It was a week full of elegant sunrises and sunsets (both of which you can see from the back porch), simple walks to and from the beach and rest in a cozy home with all the necessities. We appreciated playing the games, puzzles and cards that they supplied. Highly recommend!!

This place was a dream. It’s right on the beach, with an exceptional porch and bay windows in the main inside area - so whether you want to be toes in the sand, in the shade of the porch on a rocking chair or in the AC, you will still be experiencing the charming beach up close and personal. The home is pristine inside - very clean and gorgeously decorated. Beds are very cozy. Kitchen has all the pots, pans, tools and spices you need. The gate for the porch made it super easy for us with our one year old - she could crawl around and play while we hung out in the rocking chairs. The location is striking - quick walk to the ocean crest pier and Island Way restaurant and a short drive to many other eateries and breakfast spots. We may make this an annual tradition!

We adored our week at Family Tides Too, especially the beach front view and patio! The rooms were comfortable and the kitchen generously refreshed, and the location was close to stores and eateries. We would appreciate to return!

Stayed about a week
We had a fabulous stay at Family Tides Too. We spent our time walking the beach or just relaxing in the rocking chairs on the deck overlooking the ocean. Simple drive to great eateries on the island, Southport and even Wilmington. Great location and great view. Doesn’t get any better!

Vacation rental booking tips and tricks:

When to visit Oak Island & When to reserve a Oak Island rental home:

• Booking in Spring or Fall is our favorite way to save money on your vacation. Rental rates are lower, and you'll find a larger selection of acceptable homes. Many vacationers use this method to find larger homes within budget, or to book an oceanfront rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during June, July, and August.
• Book your vacation rental as early as possible. Rental schedules usually become available twelve months in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many groups reserve their Summer vacation rentals during Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years Eve get-togethers. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property manager or host whether your group qualifies for a special promotion or discount.
• Booking websites typically offer guests an option to buy trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which usually will cost anywhere between 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed trip time as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance can be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for additional information.
• Look for your local Cape Fear area visitors guide when you arrive at the rental property. If your rental home doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local grocery stores and visitor centers. In addition to great articles, visitors guide magazines have discounts for local tours, shops, and attractions.

Narrow your rental Search:

• Select a group lead, choose your vacation week, and choose a spending budget.
• Decide how many bedrooms and what type of bedroom configuration your family requires. Renovated 3 Bedroom 2 Bath House, Oceanfront, Dog Friendly, Sleeps 7 has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is almost always available on booking pages. If you don't see them listed, call the property owner before reserving the rental. Remember that most listings specify the max. guest capacity, which often includes pull-out couches and bunk beds. You will need to determine which bed configuration is right for your vacation group.
• Does your family require special amenities? Most rental search websites include search filters with amenity lists. Use these filters to your advantage to find the perfect rental home.
• Appropriate accessibility can make or break a vacation for those with limited mobility. Confirm all required amenities are available before booking
• If your family is traveling with pets, you'll need to search for a property that allows animals. Get specifics on breed, weight, and type restrictions. Note that some property owners charge pet deposits and fees.

Tips to have a great stay:

• Be sure you get the property manager's phone number and arrival/departure procedures for your rental home. Put the host's information in your smartphone and wallet.
• To make sure that damages aren't attributed to your family's stay, note any problem areas during arrival. E-mail the rental manager immediately to document any issues. If there is a dispute about legal responsibility later, having the recorded problems and contact attempts will be very helpful.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a garage door opener, intercom or kitchen appliance. Contact your property manager. They are there to help! A brief call prevents lots of concerns.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like troublesome visitors disrupting your peace. Employ the golden rule for common sense. Happy residents may even recommend great beaches and places you would have never otherwise known about!
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Residents can frequently help. Who better to ask where to take kids for a treat, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for crabbing?
• Ensure you protect the owner (and your things!) by keeping the rental locked up when you are gone, just like you would back home.
• When it's time to leave, take a final walk-through to make sure you didn't forget anything. Make sure to check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden treasure. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Leave feedback! Hosts rely on good reviews to stimulate new bookings. They'll be grateful for your review. Alternatively, if something wasn't right, other vacationers will appreciate that you share your experience and help them have the best future vacation. Please be fair with your feedback If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the manager could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded quickly to fix it.
