Our top Carolina Beach rental booking tips and tricks:

When to reserve a Southport rental & When to go:

• June, July, and August are the most expensive months in the Southport area. To get the best value, shift your family's Southport trip dates to the Spring or Fall seasons. May, September, and even October offer great temperatures, , and greatly reduced traffic. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Southport vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation near the ocean? Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with friends and family at the beach.
• Reserve your rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules generally become available 12 months in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many groups book their Summer vacations during Thanksgiving and Christmas gatherings. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Owners sometimes offer discounts for veterans. Make sure to check with your property manager to see if special offers are available for your family.
• Booking websites typically offer renters an option to add trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which normally costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed trip time as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather, as well as ensuing additional evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance can be a a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for specifics.
• Often, rental management companies supply Southport area travel guides which include special deals, either offered directly by local companies, or through a relationship between the property management company and the business itself. You can also find Southport visitors guide magazine and coupon books at local shops and grocery stores.

Selecting the best vacation rental in the Southport area:

• Choose your vacation week and spending budget.
• Note the number bedrooms and the configuration you need. 5-Minute Walk to Beach & Boardwalk, Great Reviews! has 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts is often available online. Otherwise, reach out to the host before you book the property. Note that most listings specify maximum guest capacity, which oftentimes includes sofa beds. You'll need to work out which bed configuration is suitable for your trip.
• If there's a particular Southport attraction you love, search for rentals that are either near by, or those that cater to your needs.
• Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for those with limited mobility. Remember to confirm all necessary amenities are available and included before booking
• Some rental properties allow pets, and some do not. Acceptable types of family pet, size and breeds may be restricted, and additional costs may apply. Ask the host about allowable pet guidelines before booking.

Advice for your stay:

• Review check in & check out procedures before traveling. Take a printed copy, and save the directions to your phone.
• Upon check-in, record any damages to the property and immediately contact the host. Record all correspondence just in case a dispute arises.
• Property managers are available to help! Feel free to ask questions during your stay.
• Be respectful of your neighbors. Often times, surrounding homes are occupied by local residents. Respecting noise limits and parking regulations reduces conflict and allows everyone to enjoy their day.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Neighbors can usually help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to charter a fishing boat, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for shopping?
• Protect the owner (and your things!) by locking the rental while you are gone, just like you would at home.
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before you drive away, walk through the rental to reconfirm you've collected all of your things. Remember to check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden treasure. Clean out the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Inspect the property one final time and look for damage. We suggest walking through with the property manager whenever possible. If the manager isn't available, ensure that you take pictures of the property to record its condition at check-out.
• After your trip, leave a review! Property managers rely on excellent feedback to stimulate new reservations. They'll be much obliged for your review. Alternatively, if something wasn't as described, other vacationing families will be thankful you shared your feedback find their best vacation home. Remember to be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the host could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded quickly to remedy it.
