Tips and Tricks for getting the perfect vacation home experience:

Get the most from your rental home budget:

• June, July, and August are the most expensive months in Oak Island. Reserve your Wrightsville Beach vacation home in Spring or Fall to get the benefit of warm weather while saving money and avoiding crowds. Many vacationers use this method to find larger homes within budget, or to book an oceanfront rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during the high season. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Wrightsville Beach 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.
• In the Wrightsville Beach area, The sooner your group can reserve a home, the better your selection will be. The most desirable rental properties are reserved very early. Reserving your rental property up to twelve months before your vacation is recommended. Winter holidays are excellent times to plan and book your rental.
• Property managers sometimes offer promotional rates for veterans and active duty military. Ask your property manager if discounts are available for your group.
• Property management companies frequently offer renters an option to purchase vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which usually will cost you 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed time as a result of medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance might be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for more information.
• Look for your local visitors guide when you check-in. If your rental home doesn't have one, you can find them at local shops and visitor centers. In addition to great local stories, visitors guides contain coupons for local accommodations, restaurants and tours.

Choosing and booking a perfect Wrightsville Beach rental:

• Start by selecting your potential vacation weeks and a max budget.
• Decide how many beds and what type of bedroom configuration your group requires. Walking Distance to the Beach 2 Bed 1 Bath Beach Cottage on beautiful Oak Island has 2 bedrooms and 1 bathrooms.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts is normally accessible on booking websites. If not, email or call the host before booking the vacation property. Note that most property listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which usually includes sofa beds in living rooms.

More tips for your stay:

• Get the property manager's contact number and arrival/departure procedures for your . Put the host's contact information in your smartphone.
• Note any issues with the rental upon arrival, and immediately send them to the host. We especially recommend e-mails and text messages, as they usually contain time stamps that are helpful if damages are assessed.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a garage door opener, television set or thermostat. Contact your host. They are there to help! A brief text message prevents quite a few problems.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like disagreeable visitors bothering your peace and quiet. Employ the golden rule for common sense. If they like you, locals might even recommend great restaurants and scenic spots you would have never otherwise known about!
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Locals can frequently help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to launch your kayaks, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for bird watching?
• Lock your rental while you are out. Keep your property safe!
• Don't leave anything behind! Before you drive away, walk through the rental property to make sure you've collected all of your things. Check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden belongings. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Inspect the property a final time and keep an eye out for damages to contents or the property itself. We advise walking through with the host whenever you can. If the host isn't available, ensure that you take photographs of the rental to record its condition at check-out.
