Tips to get the best vacation rental experience:

Money saving strategies:

• Summer is high season in Carolina Beach. Booking your Southport vacation home in the Fall or Spring shoulder seasons is an excellent way to save money on your vacation. Rates are lower, and you'll find a larger selection of suitable homes.
• Reserve your rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules usually open twelve months in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many groups book their Summer vacation rentals during holiday gatherings. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property manager or host whether your group qualifies for a price reduction or discount.
• Booking websites frequently offer their guests an option to obtain trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which normally will cost you between 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed days as a result of medical-related issues or weather, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for more information.
• Many property management companies supply Southport area visitors guides that include coupons, either offered directly by local businesses, or through a partnership between the management company and the business itself. You can also find Southport visitors guide and coupon books at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers.

Planning, selecting, and booking your prefect Southport vacation home:

• Start by choosing your the best vacation week and a maximum budget.
• Determine how many beds and the bed configuration you need. ??1 Step Away Lower: Oceanfront, Pool, Hot Tub, Deck, Beach Access has 4 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Specific details about bedrooms and bed types is almost always accessible on booking websites. Otherwise, reach out to the property management company before you book the home. Note that most listings specify maximum guest capacity, which oftentimes includes pull-out couches.
• Are you visiting for a specific attraction? If so, use a map search to find nearby rentals.
• Suitable accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for persons with a disability. Confirm all required amenities are available and included before booking
• If your group is vacationing with pets, you'll need to search for a property that allows animals. Ask for details on breed, weight, and type restrictions. Usually, property owners charge pet deposits and fees.

Tips for your stay:

• We recommend storing the host's contact information in your smartphone and wallet.
• To ensure that damages aren't linked to your family's stay, record any problem areas when you arrive. Contact the host right away to record your findings. If there is a dispute, having a record of issues and contact attempts will be helpful.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a garage door opener, elevator or WIFI setup. Contact your host. They are there to help! A brief phone call can prevent lots of issues.
• Respect the neighborhood. Often, adjacent homes are filled by local residents. Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking policies reduces conflict and allows everyone to enjoy their day.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Locals can usually point you in the right direction. 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 while you are away. Protect your property!
• When it's time to leave, complete a final walk-through to confirm you did not forget any personal items. Re-check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden treasure. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Document the condition of the property at check-out. We recommend taking a video during your final walk-through.
• Did your family have a fantastic vacation? Most rental websites make it easy for customers to provide comments. If your rental and/or host was fantastic, they always love to hear your praise. If anything was imperfect and they failed to address it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make a note as part of your feedback.
