Tips and Tricks to get the best Southport rental experience:

Finding your best deal:

• June, July, and August are high season in Wilmington. To get the best value, consider changing your group's vacation dates to the Spring or Fall months. May, September, and even October offer great weather, , and reduced traffic. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Southport vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation on the coast? Christmas, Thanksgiving, and New Years Eve are great times to gather with family and friends at the beach.
• Reserve your vacation home as early as possible. Rental schedules usually become available 12 months in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many groups reserve their Summer rentals during Thanksgiving and Christmas gatherings. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property owner whether your vacationing group qualifies for a discount.
• Property managers frequently offer renters an option to purchase vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which costs between 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any days missed as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather, as well as hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for more information.
• Look for your local Southport visitors guide magazine when you check-in. If your rental home doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local shops and visitor centers. In addition to great local articles, visitor guides have money saving offers on nearby accommodations and attractions.

Selecting and booking the best Southport rental home:

• Start by selecting your vacation dates and a maximum budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and what type of bedroom configuration you need. A bike ride from the beach has 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our Southport rental home search.
• Precise information about bedrooms and bed types is regularly accessible online. Otherwise, call the property owner before booking the vacation property. Remember that most properties list the maximum guest capacity, which frequently includes pull out couches in living rooms. You'll need to establish what configuration is right for your vacation family.
• If there's a particular Southport attraction you are crazy about, keep an eye out for properties that are either nearby, or those that cater to your requirements.
• Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for the less-mobile. .
• If your group is vacationing with pets, search for a property that allows animals. Make sure to ask for information on breed, weight, and type restrictions. Note that some property managers require additional pet deposits and fees.

During your stay:

• Get the property manager's contact number and entry/exit procedures for your rental. Put the host's contact information in your smartphone and wallet.
• To ensure that no damages are attributed to your visit, inspect the rental for any problem areas during arrival. text the host right away to record any issues. If there is a dispute, having the recorded problems and contact attempts will be valuable.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a fireplace, stereo or appliance. Contact your host. They are there to help! A brief phone call prevents lots of issues.
• Respect the neighborhood. Frequently, nearby homes are occupied by local residents. Respecting noise limits and parking policies is the right thing to do.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Locals can usually help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to go for the best drinks, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fine dining?
• Keep your rental home locked while you are out! Don't let thieves spoil your family vacation.
• Double-check every room of the vacation property to make sure that you've packed all of your belongings on check-out day. Check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden treasure. Clean the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Inspect the rental one final time and keep an eye out for any damage. We recommend walking through with the property manager whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the manager isn't available, ensure that you take photos and video of the rental to record its condition.
• Did your family have a excellent vacation? Most rental managers make it easy for customers to provide reviews. If your rental property and/or host was fantastic, they always love to hear your praise. If anything was wrong and they failed to correct 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 comments.
