Tips for getting the perfect rental experience:

When to go & When to book:

• Summer time is high season in Oak Island. Booking your vacation rental in Fall or Spring is one of our best tips for saving money on your vacation. Rates are lower, and you'll find a better selection of desirable homes. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, or to reserve a beach front 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, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with loved ones at your favorite beach.
• In the Brunswick area area, The earlier your group can book, the easier your search will be. The most desirable properties are booked early. Booking your vacation property six - twelve months before your travel dates is recommended. Holidays such as Christmas and Thanksgiving are excellent times to search for and book your rental property.
• Property management companies sometimes offer discounts or promotional rates for veterans. Make sure to check with your host or property manager to see if special offers are available for your group before you book.
• Property management companies often offer guests an option to buy trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which usually will cost you 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any days missed as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather, as well as hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance might be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for program terms and fees.
• Find a copy of your local visitors guide upon arrival. If your rental home doesn't have one, you can find them at local shops and fuel stations. In addition to great local articles, travel guide magazines have money saving offers on local restaurants, attractions, and tours.

Use filters to narrow your rental search:

• Select a group leader, choose your trip dates, and choose a max budget.
• Decide how many bedrooms and the bed configuration you need. Statehouse: Oceanview beach cottage in East Beach has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our Brunswick area rental home search.
• Specific details about bedrooms and bed types is normally accessible on booking websites. Otherwise, email or call the property management company before you book the home. Remember that most properties list maximum guest capacity, which typically includes pull out couches in living rooms. You'll need to establish what is right for your vacation group.
• If there's a specific Brunswick area destination you simply love, keep an eye out for rentals that are either near by, or those that cater especially to your requirements.
• Proper accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for persons with disabilities. .
• Some rentals allow pets, but others do not. Allowable types of family pet, weight and breeds may be restricted, and additional costs may apply. Ask the host about your furry family members before booking.

Tips for a smooth stay:

• Add the owner's phone number to your smartphone. Take a copy of check in/check out procedures.
• To ensure that damages are not linked to your visit, note any problem areas when you arrive. Get in touch with the host right away to report any damages. If there is a dispute about legal responsibility later, having the recorded problems and contact attempts will be useful.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a garage door opener, television set or appliance. Contact your owner. They are there to help! A brief call prevents quite a few issues.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like obnoxious vacationers disrupting your quiet neighborhood. Apply the golden rule for common sense. Happy residents may even recommend great restaurants and attractions you would have not otherwise known about!
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Locals can typically help. Who better to ask where to enjoy a steak with a view, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fishing?
• Ensure you protect the rental owner (and your stuff!) by locking and securing the home when you are gone, just like you would at home.
• Upon check-out, take a walk-through to confirm you didn't leave anything behind. Remember to check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden items. Remove everything from 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.
• Did your family have a great time? Many rental managers make it easy for customers to provide reviews. If your rental and/or property manager was fantastic, they would love to hear it. If anything was wrong and they failed to address it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make it a point as part of your review.
