Southport rental booking tips:

How to get the best rental home value:

• Booking a rental in Fall or Spring is a great way to save on your vacation. Rental rates are lower, and you'll find a better selection of acceptable properties.
• In the Southport area, The earlier you can reserve a vacation rental, the better your selection will be. The best vacation homes are booked very early. Reserving your rental 6-12 months before your vacation is recommended. Holidays such as Christmas and Thanksgiving are excellent times to plan and reserve your rental property.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective host if your group qualifies for a reduced rate.
• Booking websites frequently offer customers an option to purchase vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which normally costs between 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed time as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather, as well as ensuing additional evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance might be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for more information.
• Look for your local Southport visitors guide magazine when you check-in. If your rental property doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local grocery stores and visitor centers. In addition to great local information, travel guide magazines have money saving offers on local accommodations and attractions.

• Choose your dates and spending budget.

• Precise information regarding bedrooms and bed counts & types is regularly available on booking pages. If not, call the property management company before you book your home. Note that most properties list the max. guest capacity, which oftentimes includes sofa beds in living rooms.
• If there's a specific Southport destination you are enamored with, keep an eye out for rentals that are either near by, or those that cater especially to your needs.
• Proper accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for persons with disabilities. .
• Are you traveling with furry, four-legged family members? Many vacation homes allow animals, but guidelines and restrictions apply. Allowable pet type, breed, and size are often limited. Ask your property manager before booking, and study your agreement thoroughly! Extra fees or charges might be applied to your invoice.

More considerations for your visit:

• Get the property manager's phone number and entry/exit procedures for your rental property. Put the host's contact information in your smartphone.
• To make certain that damages are not attributed to your family's visit, record any problem areas during check in. Speak to the host immediately to record any damages. If there is a dispute about who is responsible, having the recorded issues and contact attempts will be very helpful.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a fireplace, stereo or appliance. Contact your owner. They are there to help! A brief text message can prevent lots of issues.
• Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking regulations can make a stay more pleasurable. You'll magnify your chance to make some new local friends, and resident neighbors are a terrific resource to find the best local spots.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Local residents can frequently help. Who better to ask where to launch your kayaks, have a great night out, or the best spots for BBQ?
• Keep your rental home locked while you're out! Don't let burglars ruin your vacation.
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before departing, walk through the property to make sure 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.
• Please make sure to walk through the property one final time and scan for damages to contents or the property itself. We advise inspecting the property with the host whenever possible. If the manager is not available, ensure that you take photos and video of the rental to record its condition.
• After your trip, leave feedback! Hosts rely on excellent ratings to inspire more reservations. They'll be grateful for your feedback. Alternatively, if something went awry, other families will appreciate that you share your feedback and help them have the best future vacation. Remember to be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the host had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded reasonably to solve it.
