How to book the best Oak Island rental home experience:

How to get the best rental home value:

• The earlier your group can reserve a home, the easier your search will be. The most desirable rental homes are reserved early. Booking your rental property six - twelve months before your vacation dates is recommended. Holiday gatherings are excellent times to search for and book your rental home.
• Booking a rental in Spring or Fall is a great way to save money on your vacation home. 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 reserve an oceanfront vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable during June, July, and August.
• Property managers sometimes offer special rates for active duty military and veterans. Ask your host or property manager if discounts are available for your group.
• Property managers frequently offer renters an option to purchase trip insurance. Trip insurance, which usually will cost between 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any days missed as a result of medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for program terms and fees.
• Look for your local visitors guide upon checking in. If your rental home doesn't have one, you can find them at local shops and visitor centers. In addition to great local information, visitors guides contain discounts for local tours and attractions.

Planning, selecting, and booking a perfectrental:

• Start by having your group decide on trip dates and a budget.
• Note the number beds and what type of bedroom configuration you need. 4BR\/2BA Home, Oceanfront, Sleeps 12 has 5 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Precise information regarding bedrooms and bed counts & types is normally accessible online. If they are not listed, email or call the property management company before you reserve your home. Remember that most listings specify maximum guest capacity, which oftentimes includes sofa beds. You will need to work out what configuration is suitable for your family.
• Some rental properties allow pets, but some don't. Allowable types of family pet, size and breeds may be restricted, and added fees may apply. Ask the property management company about pets before booking.
• Are you visiting for a specific attraction? If so, use a map search to find nearby properties.
• Suitable accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for persons with a disability. Remember to confirm all necessary amenities are included before reserving a rental

Considerations for your stay:

• Add the owner's information to your smartphone. Print and take a copy of arrival/departure procedures.
• Hosts are great sources of help! Feel free to ask any questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Protect the rental owner (and your things!) by locking the rental when you are away, just like you would at home.
• At Check-in, note any issues with the rental property and immediately contact the owner. Keep records of all coorespondence.
• Respecting quiet hours and parking policies can make a stay more pleasurable. Be a good neighbor. You'll increase your chance to make local friends, and resident neighbors are often an incredible source for finding the best local beaches.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Neighbors can usually help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to see a beautiful sunrise or sunset, have a great night out, or the best spots for fine dining?
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before you drive away, walk through the rental property to reconfirm you've collected all belongings. Check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden treasure. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Go through the rental a final time and look for any damage. We suggest walking through with the host whenever possible. If the host isn't available, take photographs of the rental to record its condition.
• Did your group have a wonderful time? Most rental home management companies make it easy for guests to provide feedback. If your rental property and/or property management company was terrific, they would love to hear about it. If anything was wrong and they failed to fix 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 feedback.
