Rental home booking tips and tricks:

Find your perfect rental:

• Summer is high season in Oak Island. Booking your Carolina Beach vacation rental in the Fall or Spring is an excellent way to save on your vacation. Rental rates are lower, and you'll find a better selection of desirable homes.
• Reserve your rental as early as possible. Rental schedules generally open twelve months in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many families book their Summer vacations during holiday get-togethers. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property manager or host if your group qualifies for a price reduction.
• Property managers usually offer guests an option to add vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which generally will cost between 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for days missed as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unanticipated hotel or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for additional information.
• Many management companies supply Carolina Beach area visitors guide magazines which often include coupons, either offered independently 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 grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers.

• Start by having your family select date ranges and a maximum budget.
• Note the number bedrooms and the configuration your group needs. Nautical Themed Home with Ocean Views, Near Beach & Pier. Sweet EmOcean has 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms.
• Precise details about bedrooms and bed counts & types is normally available online. If you don't see them listed, contact the property owner before booking the vacation property. Remember that most properties list the maximum guest capacity, which usually includes sofa beds and bunks.
• Looking for particular amenities? Most rental search websites include search filters with amenity lists.
• Suitable accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for those with limited mobility. Remember to confirm all necessary amenities are available and included before booking
• Some rentals allow pets, and some don't. Allowable types of family pet, weight and breeds may be restricted, and added costs may apply. Ask the property management company about allowable pet guidelines before booking.

More considerations:

• Review check in & check out procedures before leaving home. Save the directions to your phone, and take a printed backup.
• To make sure damages aren't linked to your visit, make note of any problem areas upon your arrival. Call the property manager immediately to document your findings. If there is a dispute about legal responsibility later, having the recorded problems and contact attempts will be useful.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a fireplace, television set or appliance. Contact your host. They are there to help! A brief call prevents a lot of concerns.
• Respecting quiet hours and parking restrictions can make a stay more pleasurable. You will increase your chance to make some new local friends, and resident neighbors are often a fantastic source for finding the best local restaurants, beaches, and hangouts.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Local residents can typically point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to go for the best drinks, have a great night out, or the best spots for bird watching?
• Lock your vacation home while you're out and about. Protect your property!
• Don't leave anything behind! Before departing, walk through the rental to confirm you've collected all belongings. Remember to check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden items. Clean the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Go through the rental a final time and scan for any damage. We suggest walking through with the property manager whenever you can. If the property manager is not available, take photos and video of the rental to record its condition at check-out.
• Did your group have a wonderful time? Most rental managers make it easy for guests to provide reviews. If your rental and/or property manager was great, they always love to hear your praise. If anything was out of order 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.
