Strategies to get the perfect Southport vacation property experience:

Money saving strategies:

Reserve your vacation home as early as possible. Rental schedules often become available a year in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many families reserve their Summer rental homes during Christmas and Thanksgiving gatherings. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
To book the best vacation home within your budget, we highly recommend reserving in Fall or Spring. You'll benefit from lower rates, better selection, beautiful weather and the absence of large crowds at restaurants, beaches, and activities. Many vacationers use this strategy to find larger homes within budget, or to reserve an oceanfront rental that would otherwise be unavailable during the Summer months.
Some hosts offer discounts or promotional rates for veterans. Check with your property manager to see if special offers are available for your family.
Property management companies usually offer customers an option to purchase trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which normally costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed vacation time as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance can be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for specifics.
Many rental management companies and vacation rental houses supply Southport area visitor guides which will include special deals, 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 visitors guide and coupon books at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers.

How to pick the best vacation rental in the Southport area:

First and foremost, have your group choose a vacation week and a budget.
Note the number bedrooms and the configuration your group needs. 7BR\/5.5BA - Oceanfront, Elevated Pool, Sleeps 18 has 8 bedrooms and 10 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our Southport rentals search.
Specific information about bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is often available on booking pages. If they are not listed, email the property owner before reserving the rental. Note that most listings specify maximum guest capacity, which often includes sofa beds in living rooms. You'll need to work out what is right for your trip.
If your group is traveling with pets, search for a property that allows animals. Get specifics on breed, size, and type requirements. Be aware that some hosts charge additional pet fees.
Are you visiting for a single event or attraction? Try a map search to browse nearby rentals.
Appropriate accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for guests that require the use of a wheelchair. Make certain to ask about specialized equipment and wheel chair accessibility.

Some things to know before you go:

Add the owner's phone number to your phone. Print and take a copy of check in/check out procedures.
Ask questions. You may need instructions for a fireplace, A/V setup or washer/dryer. Contact your property manager. They are there to help! A brief telephone call prevents a lot of concerns.
Lock your rental home while you're out and about. Protect the owner's property and your stuff!
During arrival, document any issues with the rental property and immediately alert the owner. Keep records of all coorespondence.
Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like disagreeable visitors bothering your life at home. Apply the golden rule for common sense. Happy residents may even recommend great restaurants and scenic spots you would have never otherwise known!
Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Neighbors can frequently point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to take kids for a treat, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fine dining?
Don't leave anything behind! Just before departing, walk through the rental to make sure you've collected all belongings. Re-check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden treasure. Clean the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
Inspect the rental one final time and scan for damages to contents or the property itself. We suggest walking through with the property manager whenever you can. If the host is not available, ensure that you take video and pictures of the property to record its condition.
Did you have a excellent stay? Most rental management companies make it easy for guests to provide comments. If your rental property and/or host was great, they would love to hear it. If anything was amiss and they failed to fix it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make a note as part of your feedback.
