Tips to get the perfect Oak Island rental home experience:

How to get the best rental value:

• Reserve your vacation home as soon as possible. Rental schedules often become available a year in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many families reserve their Summer rental homes during Christmas and Thanksgiving gatherings. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Summertime is high season in the Carolina Beach area. Booking in Fall or Spring is a great way to save on your rental home. Rates are lower, and you'll find a better selection of desirable homes.
• Owners sometimes offer discounts for veterans and active duty military. Ask your property manager if special offers are available for your family before you book.
• Property management companies typically offer renters an option to obtain trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which usually will cost anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed trip time as a result of medical-related issues or weather, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance might be a a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for more information.
• Many rental management companies supply Carolina Beach area travel guide magazines which often include coupons, either offered directly by local businesses, or through a partnership between the property management company and the business itself. You can also find Carolina Beach area magazine and coupon books at local shops and grocery stores.

How to choose the best vacation rental in the Carolina Beach area:

• Choose a group leader, select your trip dates, and select a max budget.
• Note the number beds and the configuration you need. Charming Beach Cottage has 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our Carolina Beach vacation rental search.
• Specific information regarding bedrooms and bed counts is generally available on booking pages. If you don't see them listed, call the property manager before you book your rental. Remember that most listings specify the max. guest capacity, which typically includes pull-out couches and bunk beds.
• Some rentals allow pets, and some do not. Allowable types of dog or cat, size and breeds may be restricted, and additional charges may apply. Ask the owner about allowable breeds and types before booking.
• Visiting for a specific event or attraction? If so, use a map search to find nearby properties.
• Proper accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for those with limited mobility. .

Some things to know before you go:

• Add the property manager's information to your smartphone. Understand and take a copy of arrival/departure procedures.
• Hosts are available to help! Don't be shy to ask questions during your stay.
• Keep the property locked while you are out! Don't let burglars ruin your holiday.
• Record any damages to the property during check in, and immediately e-mail them to the property manager. We especially recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain time stamps that are useful if a dispute is filed.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like disagreeable vacationers disrupting your quiet neighborhood. Apply the golden rule for common sense. Happy residents may even recommend great beaches and attractions you would have never otherwise known!
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Neighbors can often point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to grab the best tacos, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fine dining?
• Double-check every room of the vacation property to confirm that you've packed all of your family's items at departure. Remember to check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden belongings. Clean out the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Please make sure to walk through the rental a final time and look for damages to contents or the property itself. We suggest inspecting the property with the property manager whenever possible. If the host isn't available, remember to take photos and video of the rental to record its condition.
• After your trip, leave feedback! Hosts rely on great ratings to propel more bookings. They'll be much obliged for your feedback. Alternatively, if something wasn't right, other vacationing families will will be grateful for your review find their best vacation home. Please be fair with your feedback If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the property manager could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded reasonably to solve it.
