Tips to get the perfect Oak Island rental home experience:

Sticking to a budget:

• Book your vacation rental as early as possible. Rental schedules usually become available a year in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many groups reserve their Summer rentals during Thanksgiving and Christmas gatherings. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Summertime is high season in Oak Island. To get the most suitable rental for your budget, we highly recommend reserving in Fall or Spring months. You'll benefit from lower rates, greater selection, warm weather and the absence of giant crowds at popular attractions and restaurants. Many vacationers use this strategy to find larger homes within budget, or to reserve an oceanfront rental that would otherwise be unavailable during the Summer months. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Brunswick area vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday near the ocean? Christmas, Thanksgiving, and New Years Eve are great times to gather with friends and family at the beach.
• Some hosts and property managers offer discounts for active duty military and veterans. Make sure to check with your property manager to see if special offers are available for your family.
• Property managers often offer guests an option to obtain vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which generally costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of 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 gasoline expenses. Trip insurance can be a a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for details.
• Often, rental management companies supply Brunswick area area visitor guides that include money-saving deals, either offered directly by local companies, or by way of a relationship between the rental management company and the business itself. You can also find Brunswick area visitors guide magazine and coupon books at local shops and grocery stores.

Planning, selecting, and booking a perfect Brunswick area rental home:

• Select a group leader, choose your vacation dates, and select a max budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and the configuration your family needs. Updated Beach Cottage with Wonderful Pool Near Beach Access has 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms.
• Precise details about bedrooms and bed counts is usually available online. If not, call the host before you reserve the home. Remember that most properties list maximum guest capacity, which typically includes sofa beds and bunks. You will need to determine which bed configuration is best for your vacation.
• If your group is bringing pets, you will need a pet-friendly vacation rental. Ask for specifics on breed, size, and type restrictions. Be aware that some property managers charge pet deposits and fees.
• Are you visiting for a specific event? Try a map search to browse nearby rentals.
• Suitable accessibility can make or break a vacation for the less-mobile. Confirm all necessary amenities are included before booking

Advice for a fantastic stay:

• Take a copy of the host's phone number and arrival/departure procedures for your rental property.
• Property managers are great sources of help! Don't be shy to ask questions during your stay.
• Lock your rental property while you're out! Don't let burglars spoil your family vacation.
• To make certain damages are not linked to your family's stay, make note of any problem areas upon check in. Get in touch with the host immediately to relay any issues. If there is a dispute, having a record of concerns and contact attempts will be useful.
• Respecting quiet hours and parking rules can make a stay significantly more pleasurable. You'll enhance your chance to make local friends, and resident neighbors are a fantastic source for finding the best local beaches and hangouts.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Locals can usually help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to order delicious takeout, have a great night out, or the best spots for bird watching?
• Don't leave anything behind! Before departing, take a walk through the property to reconfirm you've collected all belongings. Remember to check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden treasure. Clean the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Walk through the property one final time and keep an eye out for any damage. We suggest walking through with the host whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the host isn't available, take photos of the property to record its condition.
• Did you have a wonderful stay? Many rental websites make it easy for customers to provide reviews. If your rental property and/or property manager was terrific, they always love to hear your praise. 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 a note as part of your review.
