Strategies for getting the best Southport rental experience:

Money saving strategies:

• June, July, and August are the most expensive months along the coast of NC. Book your vacation home in the Spring or Fall to get the benefit of gorgeous weather while saving money and avoiding crowds. Many vacationers use this method to find larger homes within budget, or to book a beach front rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during the high season.
• The sooner your group can reserve a home, the easier your search will be. The best vacation rentals are booked very early. Reserving your vacation home six - twelve months before your vacation is recommended. Christmas, Thanksgiving and New Years Eve are excellent times to search for and reserve your rental.
• Some property management companies offer discounts for veterans. Check with your property manager to see if special discounts are available for your family.
• Property management companies often offer renters an option to obtain vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which commonly will cost you 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed time as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for specifics.
• Often, rental management companies supply Southport area visitor guides which often include coupons, either offered directly by local companies, or through a partnership between the rental management company and the business itself. You can also find Southport visitors guide magazine and coupon books at local shops and grocery stores.

Choosing and booking your prefectrental home:

• Begin by choosing potential vacation weeks and a max budget.
• Decide how many bedrooms and the configuration you need. 7BR\/6.5BA Home - Ocean Views ,Pool, Elevator, Near Boat Ramp, Walk to Beach, has 8 bedrooms and 7 bathrooms.
• Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts is almost always available on booking websites. Otherwise, email or call the property owner before reserving the vacation property. Remember that most property listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which typically includes pull-out couches.
• If there's a certain Southport destination you crave, search for properties that are either near by, or those that cater especially to your requirements.
• Proper accessibility can make or break a vacation for guests with disabilities. Confirm all necessary amenities are available and included before booking.
• If your group is traveling with pets, you'll need to book a pet-friendly rental. Make sure to ask for specifics on breed, weight, and type requirements. Usually, property owners require additional pet deposits and fees.

More tips for your stay:

• Get the property manager's phone number and entry/exit procedures for your rental home.
• Document any issues with the rental upon arrival, and immediately e-mail them to the host. We specifically recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain time stamps that are valuable if there is a dispute.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a fireplace, stereo or washer/dryer. Contact your owner. They are there to help! A brief text message can prevent many problems.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like troublesome vacationers bothering your peaceful home. Employ the golden rule for best judgement. If they like you, locals might even recommend great restaurants and places you would have not otherwise known about!
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Residents can frequently point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to find the fresh catch of the day, have a great night out, or the best spots for fishing?
• Ensure you protect the rental owner (and your things!) by locking the property when you are away, just like you would at home.
• Double-check every room of the vacation property to confirm that you've packed all belongings on check-out day. Remember to check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden items. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Did your family have a excellent vacation? Many rental management companies make it easy for travelers to provide comments. If your property and/or property management company was fantastic, they always love to hear your praise. If anything was imperfect and they failed to fix 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 review.
