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

Getting the most from your rental home budget:

• Summer months are high season in Oak Island. Booking your vacation home in the Fall or Spring is one of our best tips for saving money on your vacation home. Rates are lower, and you'll find a larger selection of acceptable homes. Many vacationers use this strategy to find larger homes within budget, or to reserve a beach front vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable during the Summer months. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Southport vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday on the coast? Thanksgiving and Christmas are great times to gather with family and friends at the beach.
• Reserve your vacation home as soon as possible. Rental schedules generally become available a year in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many groups reserve their Summer rentals during holiday gatherings. 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 management company or host whether your vacationing group qualifies for a price reduction.
• Booking websites usually offer their guests an option to obtain trip insurance. Trip insurance, which normally costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed time as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for details.
• Look for your local visitors guide when you check-in. If your rental doesn't have one, you can find them at local shops and visitor centers. In addition to great local stories, travel guides have offers and deals for nearby shops and restaurants.

Use filters to search efficiently:

• Select a group lead, select your vacation dates, and select a budget.
• Decide how many bedrooms and the bed configuration your group requires. It Depends: Beach Cottage Overlooking Davis Canal has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Specific information regarding bedrooms and bed types is commonly accessible on booking pages. If they are not listed, email or call the property manager before you book the property. Remember that most listings specify maximum guest capacity, which typically includes sofa beds in living rooms.
• If there's an individual Southport beach you crave, search for homes that are either close by, or those that cater especially to your needs.
• Proper accessibility can make or break a vacation for the less-mobile. Confirm all necessary amenities are included before booking.
• If your group is traveling with pets, you'll need to find a pet-friendly rental. Ask for information on breed, weight, and type restrictions. Some property owners charge pet deposits and fees.

Advice for a smooth stay:

• Add the property manager's contact info to your phone. Print and take a copy of arrival/departure procedures.
• During check-in, note any damages to the rental property and immediately contact the owner. Record all coorespondence.
• Property managers are great sources of help! Don't be shy to ask questions during your stay.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like disrespectful visitors bothering your quiet neighborhood. Apply the golden rule for common sense. Happy residents may even recommend great local food and places you would have not otherwise known!
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Local residents can usually help. Who better to ask where to order the best nachos, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for BBQ?
• Ensure you protect the property owner (and your stuff!) by locking and securing the home when you are away, just like you would at home.
• Double-check the rental property to make sure that you've packed all belongings at departure. Make sure to check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden items. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Document the condition of the property at check-out. We recommend taking a video during your final walk-through.
• After your trip, leave feedback! Hosts rely on good reviews to drive more reservations. They'll be grateful for your feedback. Alternatively, if something went awry, other vacationers will will be grateful for your review and help them have the best future vacation. Be fair with your review. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the manager had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded expeditiously to solve it.
