Strategies to get the optimal vacation home experience:

Getting the best rental home value:

• Summertime is high season in the Southport area. Booking a rental in the Fall or Spring shoulder seasons is one of our best tips for saving money on your vacation rental. Rental rates are lower, and you'll find a larger selection of suitable properties.
• Reserve your vacation rental as early as possible. Rental schedules generally open 12 months in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many groups reserve their Summer vacation rentals during Christmas and Thanksgiving gatherings. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Property managers sometimes offer promotional rates for veterans and active duty military. Make sure to check with your property manager to see if special offers are available for your group.
• Property managers typically offer customers an option to purchase vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which will generally cost anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed vacation time as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for more information.
• Often, property management companies supply Southport area visitor guides which include coupons, either offered directly by local businesses, or by way of a partnership between the management company and the business itself. You can also find Southport area magazine and coupon books at local shops and grocery stores.

How to choose the best rental home in the Southport area:

• Start by choosing your potential vacation weeks and a spending budget.
• Decide how many bedrooms and the configuration your group requires. 3BR\/2BA Home - 12 Minute Walk to Beach, Sleeps 7 has 4 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts is almost always available on booking pages. If they are not listed, email the property owner before you book the rental. Note that most listings specify maximum guest capacity, which frequently includes sofa beds and bunks. You'll need to determine what is right for your trip.
• If there's a certain Southport destination you crave, look for properties that are either near by, or those that cater especially to your desires.
• Proper accessibility can make or break a vacation for guests with disabilities. Confirm all required amenities are available before reserving a rental
• If your family is bringing pets, search for a rental that allows animals. Get details on breed, size, and type requirements. Usually, property owners charge pet deposits and fees.

Know before you go:

• Be sure you get the property manager's phone number and check in/check out procedures for your rental home.
• Note any damages to the property at check in, and immediately contact the owner. We specifically recommend e-mails and text messages, as they usually contain time stamps that are helpful if a dispute arises.
• Property managers are available to help! Feel free to ask questions during your stay.
• Be a good neighbor. Often times, surrounding homes are occupied by local residents. Respecting late-night noise limits and parking rules is the right thing to do.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Local residents can usually help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to get the best breakfast in town, have a great night out, or the best spots for fine dining?
• Protect the property owner (and your stuff!) by locking and securing the home while you are gone, just like you would at home.
• Don't leave anything behind! Before departing, take a walk through the rental to reconfirm you've collected everything. Check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden belongings. Clean the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Go through the rental one final time and look for damages to contents or the property itself. We recommend inspecting the property with the host whenever possible. If the manager is not available, remember to take photos and video of the property to record its condition.
• Remember to leave a review! Property managers rely on great ratings to drive new bookings. They'll be much obliged for your review. Alternatively, if something went wrong, other vacationers will will be grateful for your experience and help them have the best future vacation. Please be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the property manager could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded reasonably to solve it.
