Strategies to get the perfect vacation rental experience:

When to visit Oak Island & When to book:

• The earlier you can reserve a vacation rental, the easier your search will be. The best rental homes are booked very early. Booking your vacation rental 6-12 months before your travel dates is recommended. Holidays such as Christmas and Thanksgiving are excellent times to plan and reserve your rental property.
• June, July, and August are the most expensive months in the Carolina Beach area. To find the largest vacation home within your budget, we strongly suggest reserving in the Spring or Fall. You'll benefit from lower rental rates, greater selection, beautiful weather and the absence of giant crowds at Carolina Beach restaurants, tours, and activities.
• Hosts sometimes offer discounts for veterans and active duty military. It's always a good idea to check with your property manager to see if rate reductions are available for your group before you book.
• Property management companies frequently offer their guests an option to purchase trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which commonly will cost you between 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed days as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance might be a a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for program terms and fees.
• Find a copy of your local visitors guide when you check-in. If your rental home doesn't have one, you can find them at local shops and fuel stations. In addition to great local articles, visitor guides have deals for nearby attractions, tours, restaurants, and shops.

How to choose the perfect vacation home:

• Start by selecting your a vacation week and a budget.
• Determine how many beds and what type of bedroom configuration your family needs. 5BR/3.5BA Home - Oceanfront, POOL, Gazebo with Swing, Dog Friendly, Sleeps 12 has 5 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our Carolina Beach rentals search.
• Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts is usually accessible on booking websites. If you don't see them listed, email or call the property manager before you book the vacation property. Remember that most property listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which usually includes sofa beds.
• Some rentals allow pets, and others don't. Acceptable types of pet, size and breeds may be restricted, and added charges may apply. Ask the host about pets before booking.
• If there's an individual Carolina Beach attraction you long to visit, browse properties that are either nearby, or those that cater especially to your requirements.
• Proper accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for persons with a disability. .

Tips for your stay:

• Store the manager's contact information in your smartphone and wallet.
• Property managers are there to help! Don't be shy to ask questions during your stay.
• Ensure you protect the property owner (and your things!) by keeping the rental locked up while you are away, just like you would at home.
• To make certain that damages are not linked to your family's stay, record any problem areas during check in. Call the rental manager immediately to record any pre-existing damages. If there is a dispute about legal responsibility later, having the recorded problems and contact attempts will be valuable.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like loud vacationers bothering your quiet neighborhood. Practice the golden rule for best judgement. If they like you, locals might even recommend great beaches and scenic spots you would've not otherwise known about!
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Residents can frequently point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to book the best tours, have a great night out, or the best spots for shopping?
• Re-check every room of the rental property to confirm that you've packed all of your belongings on check-out day. Make sure to check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden treasure. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Walk through the rental one final time and scan for any damage. We advise walking through with the host whenever possible. If the property manager isn't available, ensure that you take video and pictures of the rental to record its condition at check-out.
• Leave feedback! Property managers rely on excellent feedback to drive more bookings. They'll be much obliged for your feedback. Alternatively, if something wasn't right, other families will be thankful you shared your experience and help them have the best future vacation. Please be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the property manager could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded expeditiously to fix it.
