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

Getting the most from your budget:

• Summer months are high season in Bald Head Island. Book your Southport rental in Fall or Spring months to enjoy gorgeous weather while saving money and avoiding crowds. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Southport vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday near the ocean? Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with loved ones at the beach.
• The earlier you can reserve a vacation rental, the easier your search will be. The best rental properties are booked very early. Reserving your vacation home up to 12 months before your vacation is recommended. Holiday gatherings are excellent times to plan and book your vacation home.
• Hosts and Property managers sometimes offer promotional rates for active duty military and veterans. Ask your host or property manager if special offers are available for your group before you book.
• Property management companies often offer renters an option to purchase vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which costs between 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any days missed as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unanticipated hotel or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for program terms and fees.
• Often, rental management companies supply Southport area visitors guides which include coupons, either offered directly by local companies, or by way of a relationship between the rental management company and the business itself. You can also find Southport visitors guide magazine and coupon books at local shops and grocery stores.

Use filters to narrow your search:

• Select a designated group leader, choose your dates, and choose a spending budget.
• Decide how many bedrooms and the configuration your family requires. An Exclusive, Custom home, perfect for a large family at beautiful BHI! has 5 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms.
• Precise information about bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is often available online. If not, email the property manager before you reserve your rental. Remember that most listings specify the max. guest capacity, which typically includes sofa beds in living rooms. You will need to determine what is suitable for your vacation.
• Are you visiting for a single event? Use a map search to locate nearby rentals.
• Proper accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for those with limited mobility. Remember to confirm all required amenities are available and included before reserving a rental
• If your family is vacationing with pets, you must reserve a pet-friendly vacation rental. Get details on breed, weight, and type requirements. Usually, property managers charge additional pet fees.

Additional considerations:

• Add the owner's contact info to your phone. Understand and take a copy of arrival/departure procedures.
• To ensure that no damages are attributed to your family's stay, make note of any problem areas during check in. text the rental manager right away to relay your findings. If there is a dispute about who is responsible, having the recorded concerns and contact attempts will be valuable.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a hot tub, elevator or washer/dryer. Contact your owner. They are there to help! A brief telephone call can prevent a lot of difficulties.
• Don't forget to respect your neighbors. Often times, adjacent homes are occupied by local residents. Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking rules reduces conflict and allows everyone to enjoy their day.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Residents can usually help. Who better to ask where to book the best tours, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for crabbing?
• Lock your rental home while you're out and about. Keep your property safe!
• Double-check the rental property to confirm that you've packed all personal items on check-out day. Re-check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden belongings. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Inspect the property a final time and scan for damages to contents or the property itself. We recommend walking through with the host whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the property manager isn't available, take photographs of the rental to record its condition at check-out.
• Did you have a wonderful time? Many vacation rental websites make it easy for vacationers to provide feedback. If your rental and/or host was fantastic, they always love to hear your praise. If anything was defective and they failed to correct it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make it a point as part of your comments.
