Our condo is just a short drive away from the port city of Wilmington where you will find shopping, eateries, and the historic downtown district filled with interesting sites and experiences. Wilmington is the home of the North Carolina Azalea Festival held in April featuring live musical and theater performances, garden and historic home tours, outdoor activities, food, and crafts. Other points of interest in Wilmington are the USS North Carolina Battleship and Museum. Wilmington and surrounding areas/beaches have also become a hot spot for Hollywood Film Directors for film making locations and tv show locations. You never know what Hollywood stars you will run into. I have seen many.

In Fort Fisher area there is an award winning aquarium or you can take a ferry across the Cape Fear River to a striking town called Southport with many stores and eateries. For all those history fanatics, visit Fort Fisher museum that features items from the American Civil War.

Tips and Tricks to get the best Southport vacation rental experience:

How to get the best rental value:

• In the Southport area, The earlier you can reserve a vacation home, the easier your search will be. The most desirable vacation rentals are booked early. Reserving your rental property six to twelve months before your vacation is recommended. Christmas, Thanksgiving and New Years Eve are excellent times to search for and reserve your vacation rental.
• Book your Southport vacation in Fall or Spring months to get the benefit of warm weather while saving money and avoiding crowded roads, restaurants, and activities. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, or to book a beach front vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable during the high season.
• Some property management companies offer discounts for veterans and active duty military. Remember to ask your property manager if discounts are available for your group.
• Booking websites typically offer their guests an option to buy vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which generally will cost between 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed days as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for more information.
• Many property management companies supply Southport area travel guides which will include special offers, either offered directly by local companies, or through a partnership between the rental management company and the business itself. You can also find visitors guide and coupon books at local gas stations and shopping centers.

How to select the best vacation home in Carolina Beach:

• Begin by selecting the best vacation week and a spending budget.
• Note the number beds and the bed configuration your group needs. ????BEACHFRONT ELM IS CALLING????\n~Oceanfront~Private Beach Access~Pool~ has 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Specific information regarding bedrooms and bed counts & types is normally available on booking pages. If not, email or call the host before reserving the vacation home. Remember that most properties list maximum guest capacity, which usually includes pull-out couches and bunk beds.
• Some rentals allow pets, but some do not. Allowable types of dog or cat, weight and breeds may be restricted, and added charges may apply. Ask the host about pet restrictions before booking.
• If there's a certain Southport destination you simply love, look for properties that are either close by, or those that cater especially to your requirements.
• Suitable accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for those with limited mobility. .

Have a wonderful stay:

• Get the owner's phone number and entry/exit procedures for your rental home. Store the host's contact information in your smartphone.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a fireplace, stereo or appliance. Contact your owner. They are there to help! A brief phone call can prevent a lot of issues.
• Protect the property owner (and your stuff!) by locking the property when you are out, just like you would at home.
• Note any damages to the rental during check in, and immediately send them to the host. We especially recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain time stamps that can be helpful if a dispute arises.
• Be a good neighbor. Often times, adjacent homes are filled by local residents. Respecting quiet hours and parking rules reduces conflict and allows everyone to enjoy their day.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Neighbors can often help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to order delicious takeout, have a great night out, or the best spots for shopping?
• Upon check-out, complete a walk-through to confirm you have not forget any personal items. Check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden treasure. Clean out the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Remember to leave feedback! Hosts rely on great ratings to stimulate future bookings. They'll be grateful for your feedback. Alternatively, if something went wrong, other vacationers will will be grateful for your experience and help them have the best future vacation. Please be fair with your feedback If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the manager had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded reasonably to fix it.
