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

Sticking to a rental home budget:

• Reserve your rental as early as possible. Rental schedules generally become available twelve months in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many families reserve their Summer rentals during Christmas and Thanksgiving gatherings. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• June, July, and August are the most expensive months in coastal NC. To get the best value, shift your group's vacation to the Spring or Fall shoulder seasons. May, September, and even October offer great weather, less crowded beaches, and greatly reduced traffic. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Brunswick area vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday on the coast? Christmas, Thanksgiving, and New Years Eve are great times to gather with friends and family at your favorite beach.
• Property management companies sometimes offer rate reductions for veterans. Remember to ask your host or property manager if special offers are available for your family.
• Booking websites often offer renters an option to buy vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which commonly will cost you 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed vacation time as a result of medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for details.
• Many rental management companies supply Brunswick area area travel guide magazines that include money-saving deals, either offered directly by local businesses, or through a relationship between the property management company and the business itself. You can also find Brunswick area area magazine and coupon books at local gas stations and shopping centers.

Selecting and booking the perfect Brunswick area vacation home:

• First and foremost, have your family choose the best dates and a budget.
• Note the number bedrooms and the configuration your group requires. 3BR\/2BA - Ocean Front, Dog Friendly, Beach Steps Away, Sleeps 8 has 4 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our vacation rental search.
• Precise details about bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is normally available on booking websites. If they are not listed, email or call the host before you reserve the vacation home. Remember that most properties list maximum guest capacity, which usually includes sofa beds in living rooms. You'll need to work out what configuration is right for your group.
• Traveling with pets? Many vacation homes allow animals, but guidelines and restrictions apply. Allowable pet type, breed, and size are often limited. Remember to ask the property manager before booking, and study your agreement! Pet fees or costs applied to your invoice.
• Is your group looking for particular amenities? Most rental websites include search filters with amenity lists.
• Suitable accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for persons with a disability. .

Have a fantastic stay:

• Take a copy of the host's contact number and entry/exit procedures for your .
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a hot tub, elevator or WIFI setup. Contact your property manager. They are there to help! A brief call can prevent lots of issues.
• Keep the property locked while you are out! Don't let burglars spoil your vacation.
• To ensure that no damages are linked to your family's stay, inspect for any problem areas upon check in. Call the rental manager immediately to report any damages. If there is a dispute about who is responsible, having a record of problems and contact attempts will be useful.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like loud visitors bothering your life at home. Use the golden rule for best judgement. Happy residents may even recommend great local food and places you would've not otherwise known!
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Locals can often point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to launch your kayaks, have a great night out, or the best spots for fine dining?
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before you drive away, take a walk through the rental to confirm you've collected all belongings. Make sure to check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden items. Clean the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Go through the property one final time and look for damage. We advise inspecting the property with the host whenever you can. If the property manager isn't available, remember to take photos of the property to record its condition.
• Remember to leave a review! Property owners rely on great feedback to compel future bookings. They'll be thankful for your review. Alternatively, if something wasn't as described, other vacationers will be thankful you shared your review and help them have the best future vacation. Please be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the host could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded reasonably to fix it.
