Tips to get the optimal rental experience:

How to get the best value:

• The sooner your group can reserve a vacation home, the easier your search will be. The most desirable vacation rentals are booked early. Reserving your rental 6-12 months before your vacation is recommended. Holidays such as Christmas and Thanksgiving are excellent times to plan and book your rental property.
• Summertime is high season in Carolina Beach. Book your Southport rental home in Fall or Spring months to get the benefit of warm weather while saving money and avoiding crowds.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective vacation rental company or host whether your vacationing group qualifies for a price reduction or discount.
• Property management companies often offer customers an option to add trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which will generally cost between 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed trip time as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance might be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for program terms and fees.
• Often, management companies and vacation rental houses supply Southport area visitor guides which will include special deals, either offered directly by local businesses, or through a partnership between the management company and the business itself. You can also find Southport visitors guide and coupon books at local shops and grocery stores.

Use filters to narrow your search:

• Choose vacation dates and maximum budget.
• Decide how many beds and the bed configuration your family requires. 15% off Summer Reservations Early Bird Special! - Symbiosis has 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms.
• Precise information regarding bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is regularly available on booking pages. If not, email or call the property owner before booking the property. Note that most properties list maximum guest capacity, which oftentimes includes sofa beds in living rooms.
• Some rental properties allow pets, and some don't. Acceptable types of pet, weight and breeds may be restricted, and additional fees may apply. Ask the owner about pets before booking.
• Is your family looking for specific amenities? Most rental websites include search filters with amenity lists. Filtering by amenity will allow you to quickly find the best rental home.
• Proper accessibility can make or break a vacation for persons with a disability. .

During your stay:

• Review check in & check out procedures before traveling. Add a note with the directions to your phone, and take a printed copy.
• Hosts are there to help! Feel free to ask questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Lock your vacation home while you're out and about. Protect your property!
• Record any damages to the rental upon arrival, and immediately send them to the owner. We especially recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain built-in time stamps that can be helpful if a dispute arises.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like disrespectful vacationers bothering your peaceful home life. Practice the golden rule for common sense. If they like you, locals might even recommend great beaches and scenic spots you would've never otherwise known about!
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Residents 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 shopping?
• When it's time to leave, complete a final walk-through to confirm you did not leave anything behind. Check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden items. Clean out the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Walk through the property a final time and look for any damage. We suggest walking through with the host whenever possible. If the host is not available, ensure that you take photos and video of the property to record its condition.
• Remember to leave feedback! Hosts rely on great feedback to stimulate new reservations. They'll be grateful for your review. Alternatively, if something wasn't as described, other families will appreciate that you share your review find their best vacation home. Be fair with your review. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the host could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded expeditiously to fix it.
