Tips and Tricks to get the perfect vacation rental experience:

When to visit Carolina Beach & When to book:

• In the Southport area, The sooner you can book a vacation home, the better your selection will be. The most desirable rental properties are reserved very early. Booking your vacation home 6-12 months before your vacation dates is recommended. Christmas, Thanksgiving and New Years Eve are excellent times to plan and reserve your rental.
• Summer months are high season in the Southport area. To get the best value, try changing your vacation week to the Spring or Fall shoulder seasons. May, September, and even October offer pleasant temperatures, , and greatly reduced traffic.
• Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property management company or host whether your group qualifies for a special rate.
• Booking websites frequently offer customers an option to purchase vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which generally costs between 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed days as a result of medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for more information.
• Many property management companies and vacation rental houses supply Southport area visitors guide magazines which include special offers, either offered directly by local companies, or by way of a relationship between the property management company and the business itself. You can also find Southport visitors guide and coupon books at local gas stations and shopping centers.

Planning and picking the perfectvacation home:

• Select your dates and spending budget.
• Determine how many beds and what type of bedroom configuration your group requires. Anchor Down - Ocean & Canal Views, Near Beach Access, CB Pier, Freeman Park, Outdoor Space, Grill has 4 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our Southport vacation rental search.
• Precise information about bedrooms and bed types is usually available on booking pages. If they are not listed, contact the property manager before reserving the property. Note that most listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which usually includes sofa beds and bunks. You will need to determine what is optimal for your vacation.
• If your group is vacationing with pets, filter your search for a pet-friendly property. Get specifics on breed, size, and type requirements. Usually, property managers require additional pet deposits and fees.
• Are you looking for special amenities? Most rental websites include search filters with amenity lists.
• Proper accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for guests with disabilities. Confirm all required amenities are included before reserving a rental.

Some things to know before you go:

• Add the owner's contact information to your smartphone. Print and take a copy of check in/check out procedures.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a fireplace, elevator or coffee maker. Contact your host. They are there to help! A brief phone call prevents many problems.
• Keep the property locked while you're out! Don't let burglars spoil your family vacation.
• At Check-in, record any issues with the rental property and immediately alert the host. Record all correspondence in case a dispute arises.
• Respect the neighborhood. Often, surrounding homes are occupied by local residents. Respecting quiet hours and parking policies is the right thing to do.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Locals can usually help. Who better to ask where to order delicious takeout, have a great night out, or the best spots for bird watching?
• Don't leave anything behind! Before you drive away, walk through the rental property to confirm you've collected all personal belongings. Make sure to check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden belongings. Clean out the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Did you have a fantastic stay? Most vacation rental websites make it easy for customers to provide feedback. If your property and/or host was terrific, they would love to hear it. If anything was inoperable 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 comments.
