Finding the best vacation home experience:

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

• Booking in Fall or Spring is a good way to save money on your rental home. Rates are lower, and you'll find a larger selection of suitable properties.
• Book your vacation rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules often become available twelve months in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many families book their Summer vacations during Thanksgiving and Christmas get-togethers. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Hosts and Property managers sometimes offer promotional rates for active duty military and veterans. Ask your property manager if rate reductions are available for your family.
• Property managers often offer their guests an option to purchase vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which commonly will cost between 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any days missed as a result of personal 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 life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for program terms and fees.
• Often, property management companies supply Carolina Beach area visitors guides that include special deals, either offered independently by local businesses, or by way of a relationship between the property management company and the business itself. You can also find visitors guide and coupon books at local gas stations and shopping centers.

Filter your search:

• Choose vacation dates and spending budget.
• Decide how many beds and the configuration your family needs. 4 Bedroom 2 Bath House, 2nd Row, Ocean Views, Dog Friendly, Sleeps 8 has 5 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our rentals search.
• Specific information regarding bedrooms and bed counts is commonly accessible online. If you don't see them listed, reach out to the property owner before you book your home. Note that most property listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which frequently includes pull out couches in living rooms.
• If there's a certain Carolina Beach beach you are crazy about, browse properties that are either close by, or those that cater to your requirements.
• Suitable accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for guests that require the use of a wheelchair. Remember to confirm all required amenities are included before booking
• If your group is bringing pets, you will need a pet-friendly property. Make sure to ask for specifics on breed, size, and type requirements. Some property owners charge pet deposits and fees.

More tips for your visit:

• Be sure you get the property manager's phone number and check in/check out procedures for your rental property. Store the host's information in your smartphone.
• To make sure that no damages are linked to your family's stay, make a record of any problem areas during check in. Speak to the host right away to report any issues. If there is a dispute about legal responsibility later, having a record of problems and contact attempts will be very helpful.
• Hosts are great sources of help! Don't be shy to ask questions during your stay.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like disagreeable visitors disrupting your quiet neighborhood. Use the golden rule for common sense. If they like you, locals might even recommend great local food and attractions you would've not otherwise known about!
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Local residents can usually point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to find the best seashells, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fishing?
• Lock your rental home while you're away. Protect your property!
• On check-out day, complete a final walk-through to confirm you have not leave anything behind. Make sure to check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden items. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Document the condition of the property at check-out. We recommend taking a video during your final walk-through.
• Did you have a terrific time? Most rental managers make it easy for clients to provide comments. If your rental property and/or property manager was wonderful, they would love to hear it. If anything was wrong and they failed to address it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make it a point as part of your feedback.
