Tips to get the perfect vacation home experience:

Cost saving strategies:

• Reserve your Southport vacation home in Spring or Fall to enjoy warm weather while saving money and avoiding crowded roads, restaurants, and activities. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, or to reserve a beach front rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during the high season.
• Reserve your rental as early as possible. Rental schedules usually become available 12 months in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many families reserve their Summer rentals during Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years Eve get-togethers. Book 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 manager or host whether your family qualifies for a special rate.
• Property managers often offer guests an option to purchase trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which generally will cost 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed time as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather, as well as hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel stay or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for program terms and fees.
• Many property management companies and vacation rental houses supply Southport area visitors guide magazines that include special deals, either offered independently by local companies, or through a partnership between the property management company and the business itself. You can also find Southport area magazine and coupon books at local gas stations and shopping centers.

How to select the best vacation home:

• Begin by choosing your potential vacation weeks and a spending budget.
• Determine how many beds and the configuration your family needs. A Breath of Heaven: First Floor Condo with Stunning Views, Community Pool, Beach has 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our search.
• Specific details about bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is usually accessible online. Otherwise, email or call the property management company before you reserve your home. Remember that most properties list the max. guest capacity, which often includes sofa beds and bunks. You'll need to establish what is right for your vacation group.
• Is your group looking for special amenities? Most rental websites include search filters for amenities. Amenity filters help you quickly remove less-optimal properties.
• Proper accessibility can make or break a vacation for persons with disabilities. Confirm all required amenities are available and included before reserving a rental.
• If your family is traveling with pets, you must reserve a property that allows animals. Make sure to ask for information on breed, size, and type restrictions. Be aware that some hosts charge pet deposits and fees.

Know before you go:

• Be sure you get the host's phone number and entry/exit procedures for your rental home.
• To ensure that damages are not attributed to your stay, inspect the property for any problem areas upon check in. message the host right away to relay your findings. If there is a dispute about who is responsible, having a record of concerns and contact attempts will be helpful.
• Hosts are there to help! Feel free to ask any questions during your stay.
• Be respectful of your neighbors. Often times, surrounding homes are occupied by permanent residents. Respecting quiet hours and parking rules is the right thing to do.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Local residents can typically point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to find the best bike paths, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fine dining?
• Protect the property owner (and your stuff!) by locking the rental when you are out, just like you would at home.
• Don't leave anything behind! Before you drive away, walk through the rental property to reconfirm you've collected all of your things. Remember to check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden items. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Inspect the property a final time and keep an eye out for any damage. We recommend walking through with the host whenever you can. If the property manager isn't available, take photos of the rental to record its condition at check-out.
• After your trip, leave feedback! Hosts rely on great feedback to compel new bookings. They'll be grateful for your feedback. Alternatively, if something wasn't right, other vacationers will will be grateful for your feedback find their best rental home. Please be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the owner could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded reasonably to solve it.
