Booking the best rental experience:

Cost saving strategies:

• The sooner you can book, the easier your search will be. The best properties are reserved very early. Booking your vacation home 6-12 months before your travel dates is recommended. Holidays such as Christmas and Thanksgiving are excellent times to plan and reserve your rental property.
• Summer is the most expensive season in Oak Island. To find the best value, try changing your family's Brunswick area trip dates to the Spring or Fall shoulder seasons. May, September, and October offer excellent temperatures, , and greatly reduced traffic.
• Some owners offer rate reductions for active duty military and veterans. Check with your property manager to see if special offers are available for your group.
• Booking websites usually offer renters an option to purchase trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which costs between 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any days missed as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance might be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for more information.
• Many property management companies supply Brunswick area area visitors guides which will include money-saving offers, either offered directly by local businesses, or by way of a partnership between the rental management company and the business itself. You can also find Brunswick area area magazine and coupon books at local gas stations and shopping centers.

How to select the best rental home in the Brunswick area area:

• Start by selecting your potential vacation weeks and a max budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and the bed configuration your group needs. Beachside Charm! Heated Pool, Spa & 3-Min Walk to Shore has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Specific details about bedrooms and bed counts & types is regularly accessible online. If they are not listed, email or call the property manager before reserving your rental. Note that most listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which usually includes sofa beds and bunks. You will need to determine what is optimal for your vacation family.
• Some rentals allow pets, but others don't. Allowable types of pet, weight and breeds may be restricted, and additional costs may apply. Ask the property management company about pet restrictions before booking.
• If there's a particular Brunswick area beach you are crazy about, keep an eye out for rentals that are either near by, or those that cater to your requirements.
• Proper accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for those with limited mobility. Confirm all necessary amenities are available before reserving a rental.

During your stay:

• Put the manager's contact information in your smartphone.
• Property managers are there to help! Feel free to ask any questions during your stay.
• Keep your rental home locked while you're away! Don't let crooks ruin your family vacation.
• Upon arrival, note any damages to the property and immediately contact the host. Record all coorespondence.
• Respect the neighborhood. Frequently, surrounding homes are occupied by permanent residents. Respecting quiet hours and parking regulations reduces conflict and allows everyone to enjoy their day.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Neighbors can often point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to grab the best tacos, have a great night out, or the best spots for fishing?
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before departing, walk through the rental to make sure you've collected all personal belongings. Make sure to check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden items. Clean out the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Go through the rental a final time and look for damage. We suggest walking through with the host whenever you can. If the host is not available, ensure that you take photos and video of the property to record its condition at check-out.
• Remember to leave a review! Property owners rely on good ratings to stimulate new bookings. They'll be much obliged for your review. Alternatively, if something went awry, other vacationers will appreciate that you share your experience find their best rental home. Please be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the owner could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded quickly to fix it.
