Tricks and tips to get the best Oak Island rental home experience:

Getting the most from your vacation rental budget:

• Book your vacation home as early as possible. Rental schedules usually become available twelve months in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many families book their Summer rental homes during Christmas and Thanksgiving get-togethers. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Summer time is high season in the Brunswick area area. Booking in the Fall or Spring is a good way to save on your rental home. Rates are lower, and you'll find a better selection of desirable homes. 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? Christmas, Thanksgiving, and New Years Eve are great times to gather with family and friends at the beach.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property management company or host if your group qualifies for a special rate.
• Property management companies usually offer guests an option to obtain vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which will generally cost 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed vacation time as a result of medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance might be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for program terms and fees.
• Find a copy of your local visitors guide upon arrival. If your rental doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local shops and visitor centers. In addition to great local information, visitor guides contain coupons for local accommodations, tours and attractions.

Selecting and booking yourvacation home:

• Select your vacation week and spending budget.
• Note the number beds and the configuration your group needs. Ocean view cottage & Dog Friendly!! has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is almost always accessible online. Otherwise, email the property manager before reserving your home. Note that most listings specify maximum guest capacity, which frequently includes sofa beds and bunks. You will need to work out what configuration is suitable for your vacation.
• Some rentals allow pets, but some don't. Acceptable types of dog or cat, weight and breeds may be restricted, and added charges may apply. Ask the property manager about your furry family members before booking.
• Looking for specific amenities? Most rental websites include search filters for amenities.
• Proper accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for those with limited mobility. Make certain to ask about wheel chair accessibility, pool lifts and specialized equipment needs.

More considerations for your visit:

• Take a copy of the host's phone number and check in/check out procedures for your rental.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a hot tub, television set or coffee maker. Contact your host. They are there to help! A brief call can prevent a lot of difficulties.
• Keep the property locked while you are out! Don't let thieves spoil your trip.
• At Check-in, record any issues with the property and immediately alert the owner. Keep records of all coorespondence.
• Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking restrictions can make a stay more pleasurable. You'll enhance your chance to make some new local friends, and resident neighbors are usually an incredible resource to find the best local restaurants, beaches, and hangouts.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Residents can often help. Who better to ask where to go for the best drinks, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fine dining?
• Re-check the property to confirm that you've packed all of your belongings at departure. Make sure to check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden treasure. Clean the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Inspect the rental a final time and look for any damage. We recommend walking through with the host whenever possible. If the host is not available, take pictures of the property to record its condition at check-out.
• Leave feedback! Property owners rely on good reviews to stimulate new bookings. They'll be grateful for your review. Alternatively, if something wasn't as described, other vacationers will be thankful you shared your feedback find their best rental home. Remember to be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the owner had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded reasonably to remedy it.
