Getting the best Southport vacation property experience:

Getting the best rental value:

• June, July, and August are the most expensive months in coastal NC. Booking your Southport vacation home in Fall or Spring months is a good way to save on your vacation. Rental rates are lower, and you'll find a better selection of acceptable homes. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, or to book an oceanfront vacation rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during June, July, and August.
• Reserve your vacation rental as early as possible. Rental schedules generally become available a year in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many groups reserve their Summer vacation rentals during Thanksgiving and Christmas get-togethers. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property owner or host if your group qualifies for a price reduction or discount.
• Management companies and individual rental owners usually offer guests an option to obtain vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which generally will cost you 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any days missed as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as ensuing additional evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel stay or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for program terms and fees.
• Many rental management companies supply Southport area visitor guide magazines that include money-saving deals, either offered independently by local companies, or by way of a relationship with 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.

Planning, picking, and booking your prefectrental:

• Select a group lead, select your trip dates, and select a budget.
• Determine how many beds and the bed configuration you need. Beachside Charm! Heated Pool, Spa & 3-Min Walk to Shore has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts & types is normally available on booking pages. If you don't see them listed, call the property owner before you book your rental. Note that most properties list the maximum guest capacity, which usually includes sofa beds.
• If there's a particular Southport beach you are enamored with, keep an eye out for properties that are either close by, or those that cater to your requirements.
• Suitable accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for the less-mobile. Remember to confirm all necessary amenities are included before reserving a rental
• If your group is traveling with pets, you'll need to book a pet-friendly property. Get information on breed, size, and type requirements. Be aware that some property managers require additional pet deposits and fees.

More tips for your visit:

• Review check in & check out procedures before traveling. Take a printed copy, and save the directions to your smartphone.
• To make certain that no damages are linked to your family's visit, inspect for any problem areas when you arrive. E-mail the host right away to report any issues. If there is a dispute, having the recorded concerns and contact attempts will be useful.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a fireplace, A/V setup or kitchen appliance. Contact your host. They are there to help! A brief phone call can prevent lots of difficulties.
• Be respectful of your neighbors. Often, surrounding homes are filled by local residents. Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking policies is the right thing to do.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Locals can often point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to see a beautiful sunrise or sunset, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fishing?
• Lock your rental home while you're out and about. Keep your property safe!
• Upon check-out, take a final walk-through to make sure you didn't leave anything behind. Check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden belongings. Clean out the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Did your group have a excellent stay? Most rental home management companies make it easy for clients to provide comments. If your rental and/or property manager was wonderful, they would love to hear it. If anything was amiss and they failed to fix it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make a note as part of your comments.
