Tricks and tips to get the perfect vacation rental experience:

Sticking to your spending plan:

Book your vacation home as soon as possible. Rental schedules usually become available twelve months in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many families reserve their Summer rental homes during Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years Eve get-togethers. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
June, July, and August are high season in Ocean Isle Beach. To find the largest rental home for your budget, we suggest reserving in Spring or Fall. You'll benefit from lower rates, better selection, gorgeous weather and the absence of giant crowds at popular Carolina Beach attractions and restaurants. Many vacationers use this strategy to find larger homes within budget, or to reserve a beach front rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during the Summer months.
Some property managers offer rate reductions for veterans. It's always a good idea to check with your host or property manager to see if discounts are available for your group before you book.
Booking websites often offer guests an option to purchase trip insurance. Trip insurance, which usually costs between 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any days missed as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as evacuation costs or charges, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance can be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for additional information.
Find a copy of your local Carolina Beach area magazine upon checking in. If your rental doesn't have one, you can find them at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers. In addition to great information, visitors guide magazines have offers and deals for nearby accommodations, restaurants and tours.

Choosing the best rental in Ocean Isle Beach:

Start by choosing potential vacation weeks and a max budget.
Note the number beds and the bed configuration your group needs. A Shore Thing at Ocean Isle Beach, 5 bedroom 5 bathroom, private pool and spa has 5 bedrooms and 7 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our vacation rental search.
Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is usually available on booking websites. If not, reach out to the property management company before booking your rental. Note that most listings specify the max. guest capacity, which usually includes pull-out couches and bunk beds.
Some rental properties allow pets, and others don't. Allowable types of family pet, weight and breeds may be restricted, and added charges may apply. Ask the property management company about allowable pet guidelines before booking.
Visiting for a single attraction? Try a map search to locate nearby rentals.
Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for the less-mobile. Confirm all necessary amenities are included before booking.

Tips for your stay:

Review arrival and departure procedures before traveling. Take a printed copy, and save the instructions to your phone.
Property managers are there to help! Feel free to ask any questions before, during, or after your stay.
Keep the property locked while you're away! Don't let burglars ruin your vacation.
Upon check-in, note any damages to the rental property and immediately alert the host. Keep records of all coorespondence.
Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like unpleasant vacationers disrupting your home life. Practice the golden rule for common sense. If they like you, locals might even recommend great beaches and attractions you would have not otherwise known!
Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Residents can often help. Who better to ask where to take kids for a treat, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for BBQ?
Just before checking out, take a final walk-through to make sure you did not forget any personal items. Remember to check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden treasure. Clean out the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
Please make sure to walk through the rental one final time and scan for damage. We advise inspecting the property with the property manager whenever possible. If the property manager is not available, ensure that you take video and pictures of the rental to record its condition at check-out.
Did your group have a wonderful time? Most rental home management companies make it easy for vacationers to provide feedback. If your rental and/or property manager was terrific, they will likely appreciate your kind words. If anything was defective and they failed to address 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.
