How to get the best Brunswick area vacation home experience:

How to get the best value:

• Summer is high season in Oak Island. Booking your Brunswick area vacation rental in the Fall or Spring shoulder seasons is an excellent way to save money on your vacation. Rates are lower, and you'll find a better selection of suitable homes. Many vacationers use this strategy to find larger homes within budget, or to book an oceanfront vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during the Summer. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Brunswick area vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday near the ocean? Christmas, Thanksgiving, and New Years Eve are great times to gather with family and friends at the beach.
• Book your vacation home as soon as possible. Rental schedules usually become available twelve months in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many families book their Summer vacations during Thanksgiving and Christmas gatherings. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Some owners offer special rates for active duty military and veterans. Check with your property manager to see if special offers are available for your family.
• Booking websites frequently offer renters an option to purchase trip insurance. Trip insurance, which normally will cost 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed days as a result of medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel stay or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for more information.
• Often, rental management companies and vacation rental houses supply Brunswick area area visitor guide magazines which will include money-saving offers, either offered directly by local companies, or through a relationship between the property management company and the business itself. You can also find visitors guide and coupon books at local gas stations and shopping centers.

Use filters to narrow your search:

• Choose vacation week and max budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and the configuration you need. Whispering Waves: Ocean View Condo With Covered Balcony has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts & types is normally available on booking websites. If not, contact the host before you book your rental. Remember that most properties list the maximum guest capacity, which typically includes sofa beds.
• Looking for unique amenities? Most rental search websites include search filters for amenities. Use these filters to your advantage to find the perfect rental home.
• Proper accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for guests with disabilities. Make certain to inquire about wheel chair accessibility, pool lifts and specialized equipment needs.
• If your family is bringing pets, you'll need to search for a property that allows animals. Request specifics on breed, weight, and type requirements. Some property managers require additional pet deposits and fees.

More tips for your stay:

• Put the host's information in your smartphone.
• Document any issues with the rental during check in, and immediately e-mail them to the property manager. We especially recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain built-in time stamps that are helpful if a dispute is filed.
• Hosts are there to help! Feel free to ask any questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like obnoxious visitors disrupting your peaceful neighborhood. Use the golden rule for best judgement. Happy residents may even recommend great restaurants and scenic spots you would've not otherwise known!
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Locals can frequently help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to find the best seashells, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for crabbing?
• Protect the rental owner (and your things!) by keeping the rental locked up while you are gone, just like you would at home.
• Double-check the vacation property to make sure that you've packed all belongings on check-out day. Re-check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden items. Clean out the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Walk through the rental one final time and scan for damages to contents or the property itself. We recommend inspecting the property with the property manager whenever you can. If the property manager is not available, remember to take video and pictures of the property to record its condition.
• Remember to leave feedback! Property managers rely on good ratings to compel new reservations. They'll be thankful for your review. Alternatively, if something wasn't as described, other families will will be grateful for your feedback and help them have the best future vacation. Be fair with your review. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the owner could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded reasonably to solve it.
