How to get the best rental experience:

Sticking to your spending budget:

• Summer time is high season in Oak Island. Book your Carolina Beach vacation home in the Fall or Spring shoulder seasons to enjoy warm weather while saving money and avoiding crowds.
• In the Carolina Beach area, The earlier your group can book, the better your selection will be. The best rental homes are reserved very early. Booking your vacation home up to 12 months before your vacation dates is recommended. Holiday gatherings are excellent times to search for and reserve your rental property.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property manager whether your group qualifies for a special rate.
• Booking websites usually offer renters an option to purchase trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which costs 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed time as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance can be a a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for program terms and fees.
• Look for your local Carolina Beach area magazine upon arrival. If your rental property doesn't have one, you can find them at local shops and visitor centers. In addition to great local stories, visitor guide magazines have coupons for nearby accommodations, restaurants and tours.

Finding the best vacation rental:

• Begin by selecting your the best vacation week and a max budget.
• Decide how many bedrooms and the bed configuration your family requires. Private Saltwater Pool, With Excellent Ocean Views And Only 2 Blocks From the Beach has 4 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms.
• Specific details about bedrooms and bed counts & types is generally accessible on booking websites. If they are not listed, call the property management company before booking the property. Remember that most listings specify maximum guest capacity, which typically includes pull out couches in living rooms. You'll need to determine what configuration is best for your family.
• If there's a certain Carolina Beach beach you are crazy about, keep an eye out for homes that are either close by, or those that cater to your needs.
• Proper accessibility can make or break a vacation for those with limited mobility. Confirm all necessary amenities are available and included before booking.
• If your group is traveling with pets, you'll need to search for a rental that allows animals. Get information on breed, size, and type restrictions. Be aware that some hosts require additional pet deposits and fees.

Know before you go:

• Put the host's information in your smartphone.
• At Check-in, make note of any issues with the property and immediately alert the property manager. Record all correspondence in case a dispute arises.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a hot tub, elevator or kitchen appliance. Contact your host. They are there to help! A brief call can prevent a lot of issues.
• Be respectful. Frequently, adjacent homes are occupied by permanent residents. Respecting noise limits and parking policies can make a stay significantly more pleasurable.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Neighbors can typically point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to see a beautiful sunrise or sunset, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fishing?
• Protect the rental owner (and your things!) by keeping the rental locked up when you are away, just like you would back home.
• Just prior to departing, complete a walk-through to confirm you didn't forget anything. Re-check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden items. Clean 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 your family have a wonderful time? Most rental managers make it easy for vacationers to provide comments. If your property and/or property management company was great, they would love to hear about it. If anything was inoperable and they failed to address it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make it a point as part of your feedback.
