Our top Rental booking tips:

When to visit Southport & When to book:

• Summer time is high season in the Southport area. To get the largest rental home within budget, we highly recommend reserving in Spring or Fall. You'll benefit from lower rates, better selection, warm weather and the absence of giant crowds at restaurants, beaches, and activities.
• In the Southport area, The earlier you can book a rental home, the better your selection will be. The most desirable vacation homes are reserved early. Booking your vacation property six to twelve months before your vacation is recommended. Christmas, Thanksgiving and New Years Eve are excellent times to plan and reserve your rental.
• Property managers sometimes offer special rates for veterans and active duty military. Check with your host or property manager to see if special discounts are available for your family.
• Property management companies typically offer renters an option to purchase trip insurance. Trip insurance, which will generally cost between 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed vacation time as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance can be a a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for specifics.
• Look for your local Southport visitors guide 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, visitor guide magazines contain money saving offers on nearby attractions, tours, restaurants, and shops.

Planning, selecting, and booking the bestvacation home:

• First and foremost, have your group decide on the best dates and a budget.
• Decide how many bedrooms and the configuration your group needs. Brand new duplex in downtown Southport, on pond has 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our rentals search.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed types is regularly accessible on booking pages. If you don't see them listed, call the host before reserving your rental. Note that most properties list maximum guest capacity, which usually includes sofa beds in living rooms. You will need to establish what bed configuration is best for your family.
• If there's a certain Southport beach you are enamored with, search for homes that are either nearby, or those that cater especially to your desires.
• Appropriate accessibility can make or break a vacation for the less-mobile. Make certain to ask about wheel chair entry, pool lifts and specialized equipment needs.
• If your family is traveling with pets, you'll need to find a pet-friendly property. Request details on breed, weight, and type requirements. Usually, property owners require additional pet deposits and fees.

Some things to know before you go:

• Add the host's phone number to your smartphone. Take a copy of check in/check out procedures.
• Note any issues with the rental at check in, and immediately contact the host. We specifically recommend e-mails and text messages, as they usually contain time stamps that can be valuable if a dispute arises.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a garage door opener, A/V setup or thermostat. Contact your owner. They are there to help! A brief call prevents a lot of problems.
• Be a good neighbor. Often, nearby homes are occupied by local residents. Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking policies reduces conflict and allows everyone to enjoy their day.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Neighbors can often help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to launch your kayaks, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fine dining?
• Lock your rental home while you're away. Keep your property safe!
• When it's time to leave, take a walk-through to confirm you haven't leave anything behind. Re-check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden treasure. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Walk through the property one final time and look for damages to contents or the property itself. We recommend inspecting the property with the property manager whenever possible. If the host isn't available, ensure that you take photos of the property to record its condition.
• Did your family have a excellent vacation? Most vacation rental websites make it easy for customers to provide reviews. If your rental and/or property management company was great, they will likely appreciate your kind words. If anything was wrong and they failed to address it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make a note as part of your comments.
