Our top Oak Island rental property booking tips:

How to get the best rental home value:

• June, July, and August are the most expensive months in Oak Island. To find the best value, shift your vacation to the Spring or Fall seasons. May, September, and even October offer excellent temperatures, less crowded beaches, and greatly reduced traffic. Many vacationers use this method to find larger homes within budget, or to reserve a beach front vacation rental that would otherwise be unaffordable 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 vacation near the ocean? Thanksgiving and Christmas are great times to gather with friends and family at the beach.
• Book your vacation home as soon as possible. Rental schedules generally open 12 months in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many families reserve their Summer rental homes during holiday gatherings. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Some hosts offer discounts for active duty military and veterans. Check with your host or property manager to see if rate reductions are available for your group.
• Booking websites often offer renters an option to obtain trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which usually will cost you between 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any days missed as a result of medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel stay or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance can be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for details.
• Find a copy of your local Brunswick area visitors guide magazine upon checking in. If your rental property doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local shops and visitor centers. In addition to great local stories, travel guides have money saving offers on nearby tours, shops, and attractions.

Selecting the best rental in the Brunswick area area:

• Select a designated group leader, choose your dates, and choose a max budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and the bed configuration your group needs. Oceanfront 5br home with private beach access in Oak Island has 5 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms.
• Precise information about bedrooms and bed types is usually available online. Otherwise, email or call the host before reserving your home. Note that most properties list maximum guest capacity, which typically includes sofa beds and bunks.
• Looking for specific amenities? Most rental websites include amenity lists and search filters.
• Proper accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for those with limited mobility. Make certain to ask about wheel chair entry, pool lifts and specialized equipment needs.
• If your group is traveling with pets, you'll need to book a pet-friendly property. Make sure to ask for details on breed, size, and type restrictions. Some property managers charge pet deposits and fees.

Have a great stay:

• Review arrival and departure procedures before traveling. Save the instructions to your smartphone, and take a printed copy.
• To make certain damages aren't attributed to your family's visit, make a record of any problem areas when you arrive. text the property manager immediately to document any pre-existing damages. If there is a dispute, having a record of problems and contact attempts will be very helpful.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a fireplace, stereo or thermostat. Contact your owner. They are there to help! A brief telephone call prevents a lot of concerns.
• Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking restrictions can make a stay significantly more pleasurable. Be a good neighbor. You'll magnify your chance to make local friends, and resident neighbors can be an excellent resource to find the best local beaches and restaurants.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Locals can often help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to spend a rainy day, have a great night out, or the best spots for BBQ?
• Lock your vacation home while you are out and about. Protect the owner's property and your things!
• Don't leave anything behind! Before departing, take a walk through the property to confirm you've collected everything. Remember to check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden items. Clean out the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Document the condition of the property at check-out. We recommend taking a video during your final walk-through.
• After your trip, leave a review! Property owners rely on great ratings to drive more reservations. They'll be grateful for your review. Alternatively, if something went wrong, other families will be thankful you shared your experience and help them have the best future vacation. 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 expeditiously to fix it.
