Tricks and tips to get the optimal vacation property experience:

When to book & When to go:

• June, July, and August are the most expensive months along the coast of NC. Book your Southport vacation in the Fall or Spring shoulder seasons to get the benefit of gorgeous weather while saving money and avoiding crowds. Many vacationers use this strategy to reserve larger homes, or to book an oceanfront vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during June, July, and August.
• Book your rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules generally open twelve months in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many families book their Summer rentals during holiday gatherings. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Hosts sometimes offer discounts for veterans. Remember to ask your host or property manager if discounts are available for your family before you book.
• Management companies and individual rental owners usually offer customers an option to obtain trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which costs between 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed days as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel stay or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance can be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for specifics.
• Find a copy of your local Southport area magazine upon arrival. If your rental property doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local shops and visitor centers. In addition to great local information, visitors guide magazines have coupons for local shops and restaurants.

Make a plan and pick a perfectrental:

• Start by choosing your trip dates and a maximum budget.
• Determine how many beds and the configuration your group requires. Benny's On The Beach Pet-Friendly Oceanfront Cottage with Premium Amenities has 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms.
• Specific details about bedrooms and bed counts & types is normally available on booking websites. If you don't see them listed, email the property management company before reserving the home. Remember that most property listings specify maximum guest capacity, which frequently includes sofa beds and bunks.
• Does your family require specific amenities? Most rental websites include search filters for amenities. Use these to your advantage to find the perfect rental home.
• Proper accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for guests that require the use of a wheelchair. Make certain to inquire about wheel chair entry, pool lifts and specialized equipment needs.
• If your group is traveling with pets, you will need a pet-friendly rental. Ask for information on breed, weight, and type requirements. Note that some property owners require additional pet deposits and fees.

More considerations for your visit:

• Add the property manager's contact info to your phone. Understand and take a copy of check in/check out procedures.
• Document any issues with the rental during check in, and immediately e-mail them to the owner. We especially recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain time stamps that are very helpful if there is a dispute.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a fireplace, intercom or WIFI setup. Contact your property manager. They are there to help! A brief phone call prevents many concerns.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like disrespectful vacationers bothering your home life. Apply the golden rule for best judgement. Happy residents may even recommend great local food and places you would have never otherwise known!
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Locals can usually point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to get the best seafood, have a great night out, or the best spots for fine dining?
• Protect the owner (and your things!) by locking the property while you are gone, just like you would back home.
• Re-check every room of the property to confirm that you've packed everything on check-out day. Make sure to check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden items. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Walk through the rental one final time and scan for damage. We suggest walking through with the host whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the property manager is not available, remember to take video and pictures of the property to record its condition at check-out.
• Leave feedback! Property owners rely on great ratings to propel more bookings. They'll be thankful for your review. Alternatively, if something wasn't right, other families 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 manager had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded reasonably to remedy it.
