How to find the best Brunswick area vacation property experience:

Get the most from your spending budget:

• Summer is high season in Oak Island. To get the best value, consider shifting your group's vacation to the Spring or Fall shoulder seasons. May, September, and even October offer warm temperatures, less crowded beaches, and greatly reduced traffic.
• In the Brunswick area area, The sooner your group can book a vacation home, the easier your search will be. The most desirable properties are booked early. Booking your rental home 6-12 months before your vacation is recommended. Winter holidays are excellent times to search for and reserve your rental.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective vacation rental company or host if your vacationing group qualifies for a reduced rate.
• Property managers usually offer renters an option to obtain trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which normally costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed trip time as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as ensuing additional evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for specifics.
• Find a copy of your local visitors guide when you check-in. If your rental property doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local shops and fuel stations. In addition to great local information, visitors guides have offers and deals for local shops and restaurants.

Selecting the best vacation home in Oak Island:

• First, have your family commit to a vacation week and a spending budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and what type of bedroom configuration your group requires. DOG FRIENDLY & STUNNING 3 bedroom\/2 bath beach house with fenced back yard has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our rentals search.
• Specific information regarding bedrooms and bed counts is generally accessible on booking pages. If not, call the host before reserving the rental. Remember that most properties list the max. guest capacity, which typically includes sofa beds.
• Does your group require particular amenities? Most rental search websites include amenity lists and search filters. Use these filters to your advantage to find the perfect rental home.
• Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for guests that require the use of a wheelchair. Confirm all required amenities are included before booking.
• If your group is bringing pets, you must book a pet-friendly property. Request information on breed, weight, and type restrictions. Usually, property owners charge pet deposits and fees.

Tips to have a wonderful stay:

• Review arrival and departure procedures before leaving home. Save the instructions to your phone, and take a printed backup.
• To make sure damages aren't attributed to your family's stay, inspect the property for any problem areas upon check in. Contact the property manager right away to relay any damages. If there is a dispute about who is responsible, having a record of problems and contact attempts will be valuable.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a fireplace, stereo or thermostat. Contact your property manager. They are there to help! A brief phone call can prevent quite a few concerns.
• Be respectful of your neighbors. Often times, surrounding homes are occupied by permanent residents. Respecting quiet hours and parking regulations reduces conflict and allows everyone to enjoy their day.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Residents can frequently help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to see a beautiful sunrise or sunset, have a great night out, or the best spots for crabbing?
• Keep your rental home locked while you are gone! Don't let crooks ruin your family vacation.
• Re-check every room of the vacation property to confirm that you've packed all of your family's items on check-out day. Check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden belongings. Clean out the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Inspect the property one final time and keep an eye out for damages to contents or the property itself. We advise inspecting the property with the host whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the property manager isn't available, remember to take video of the property to record its condition at check-out.
• Remember to leave feedback! Property managers rely on excellent ratings to inspire new reservations. They'll be much obliged for your feedback. Alternatively, if something wasn't right, other vacationers will appreciate that you share your experience and help them have the best future vacation. Please 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 fix it.
