Tips to get the best vacation rental experience:

Money saving strategies:

June, July, and August are the most expensive months along the coast of NC. To find the most suitable rental home for your budget, we recommend booking in the Spring or Fall. You'll benefit from lower rental rates, greater selection, beautiful weather and the absence of giant crowds at popular attractions and restaurants. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Southport vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation near the ocean? Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with friends and family at your favorite beach.
In the Southport area, The earlier your group can book a vacation home, the better your selection will be. The most desirable rental homes are booked early. Booking your vacation property 6-12 months before your vacation dates is recommended. Christmas, Thanksgiving and New Years Eve are excellent times to search for and reserve your rental home.
Some hosts offer rate reductions for veterans. It's always a good idea to check with your property manager to see if rate reductions are available for your family before you book.
Property managers typically offer guests an option to add vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which generally will cost you anywhere between 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for days missed as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance might be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for program terms and fees.
Often, rental management companies and vacation rental houses supply Southport area visitors guides that include money-saving deals, either offered directly by local companies, or through a partnership between the management company and the business itself. You can also find Southport visitors guide and coupon books at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers.

Planning, picking, and booking your Southport rental:

First and foremost, have your group decide on vacation dates and a spending budget.
Decide how many bedrooms and the bed configuration your group requires. 1 Pura Vida, Oceanfront Home, 4 Bdrm\/ 2 Bath, Sleeps 12 has 5 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
Specific information about bedrooms and bed counts & types is normally available online. If not, contact the property owner before you book your home. Remember that most listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which usually includes sofa beds in living rooms.
Looking for particular amenities? Most websites include amenity lists and search filters. Amenity filters help you quickly remove less-optimal properties.
Proper accessibility can make or break a vacation for persons with a disability. Confirm all required amenities are available before booking
Are you traveling with furry, four-legged family members? Many vacation homes allow animals, but guidelines and restrictions apply. Type of pet, size and breeds may be limited. Ask your property manager before booking, and study your agreement thoroughly! Additional fees or costs applied to your invoice.

More tips for your stay:

Put the host's information in your smartphone and wallet.
During check-in, note any issues with the property and immediately contact the property manager. Keep records of all coorespondence.
Ask questions. You may want instructions for a hot tub, elevator or appliance. Contact your property manager. They are there to help! A brief phone call prevents many problems.
Respect the neighborhood. Often times, surrounding homes are filled by permanent residents. Respecting quiet hours and parking rules is the right thing to do.
Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Residents can frequently help. Who better to ask where to rent beach equipment, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for BBQ?
Keep your rental home locked while you're away! Don't let thieves spoil your holiday.
Don't leave anything behind! Before departing, walk through the rental to reconfirm you've collected all belongings. Remember to check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden belongings. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
Go through the rental one final time and scan for damage. We suggest inspecting the property with the host whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the property manager is not available, ensure that you take photographs of the rental to record its condition at check-out.
Did you have a wonderful vacation? Most rental home management companies make it easy for guests to provide reviews. If your property and/or property management company was great, they will likely appreciate your kind words. If anything was inoperable and they failed to correct it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make a note as part of your feedback.
