Tricks and tips to get the optimal Southport vacation home experience:

Finding the best rental value:

• The sooner you can book a rental home, the better your selection will be. The best rental properties are reserved very early. Booking your rental home six to twelve months before your vacation dates is recommended. Winter holidays are excellent times to plan and book your vacation rental.
• June, July, and August are high season in the Southport area. To get the largest rental within budget, we recommend reserving in Fall or Spring. You'll benefit from lower rates, better selection, beautiful weather and the absence of large crowds at Southport restaurants, beaches, and activities. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, or to book an oceanfront vacation rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during the Summer.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property management company or host whether your group qualifies for a price reduction or discount.
• Booking websites usually offer renters an option to buy vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which usually costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed days as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for more information.
• Many property management companies supply Southport area visitors guide magazines which will 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 visitors guide and coupon books at local gas stations and shopping centers.

Planning and picking your Southport rental:

• Select vacation week and max budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and the bed configuration your family requires. Beach Retreat with Ocean Views. Pet-Friendly Paradise with 30+ Day Stays! has 4 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our rental home search.
• Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts & types is normally available on booking pages. If they are not listed, contact the property owner before reserving the home. Remember that most property listings specify maximum guest capacity, which typically includes pull-out couches. You will need to work out what configuration is suitable for your vacation.
• If your family is bringing pets, you will need a pet-friendly vacation rental. Make sure to ask for specifics on breed, weight, and type restrictions. Often, hosts require additional pet deposits and fees.
• If there's an individual Southport destination you are enamored with, keep an eye out for homes that are either close by, or those that cater to your requirements.
• Proper accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for persons with a disability. Make certain to ask about specialized equipment and wheel chair accessibility.

Have a great stay:

• Take a copy of the property manager's phone number and entry/exit procedures for your rental property.
• Property managers are there to help! Feel free to ask questions during your stay.
• Lock your rental property while you are away! Don't let crooks spoil your vacation.
• During arrival, document any damages to the rental property and immediately contact the host. Keep records of all correspondence in case a dispute arises.
• Be respectful. Often times, nearby homes are filled by permanent residents. Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking rules can make a stay significantly more pleasurable.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Neighbors can often help. Who better to ask where to launch your kayaks, have a great night out, or the best spots for BBQ?
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before departing, take a walk through the property to reconfirm you've collected all belongings. Make sure to check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden belongings. Clean out the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Walk through the rental a final time and keep an eye out for damage. We recommend walking through with the host whenever possible. If the host is not available, ensure that you take photos and video of the property to record its condition.
• After your trip, leave feedback! Hosts rely on great reviews to drive future bookings. They'll be grateful for your review. Alternatively, if something went awry, other vacationers will will be grateful for your feedback and help them have the best future vacation. Be fair with your review. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the property manager could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded reasonably to solve it.
